MY OVERALL ANALYSIS:

1) "Soon and Very Soon".....PERFECT BEGINNING.  I stood up and clapped like I was in church.

2) Mariah...they should take back every grammy and preserve what little voice she has left in a glass case and donate it to science.  Ugh!

3) Queen Latifah....I have always admired her, but today I loved her.  She presents well no matter what the climate...grand or gangsta...she can do it.  That black dress was kinda nice fitting too....but I digress.

4) Marlon Jackson..........actually believes in the real Jesus.......whoa........I needed resucitation at that moment.


5) The little girl.  Even if the speech was planned, rehearsed, etc., it was heart felt and I BALLED!

6) Janet.................WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IRT Queen Latifah: I agree.  She really turned out to be every woman.  Yet another black woman we can be proud of.

She was very poised and eloquent.  AND BRAVE...I wouldn't have stood on national television and read a poem written by Maya Angelou.  But she did...and nailed it in spite of the buildup of tears!!!!!

I was so proud of her....

To be honest, Mariah's husband would have done a better job at saving the day.  But...oh well.  IT SUCKED TERRIBLY.

I watched it, it was everywhere how could you not watch it...
Anywho, the part that moved me the most was when Paris started talking about her father. Even old Chevonne started crying at that moment. I loved what Magic and Kobe said... Overall this was the best memorial I've ever seen. It was very organized and very good. Oh yeah and when other people song Michael's songs it just didn't sound right. I think someone tried to sing "Heal the world"....it just lets us know how unique his voice was. There will never be a better entertainer than Michael Jackson was.

Oh yeah and to Peter King....Let he who is without sin cast the first stone ;)

CNN is showing it again tonight, but I'm unclear on the time. Someone told me 7, but since it's not on in Atl yet, I'm going to assume she had the time wrong.

Don't tempt me, cuz some days I feel like I'm not too far from making a big move... It'll be something stupid like a commercial that says, "Tonight at 8, 7 central..." to put me over the edge :D

I've only been on the West Coast once, and that's one of the things that stood out to me as incredibly odd. I couldn't believe that, in San Diego, the commercials spoke of programs airing 'tonight at 8, 7 central.'

How weird... I don't think I could ever get used to that. Shucks, I'm having a hard enough time with the Alabama conversions, and we're included in the commercials. LOL

If you go to this article you'll get a summary of the event and links to video clips.  Also, go on Youtube and look up "john mayer human nature".  He did a beautiful verison of "Human Nature" at the memorial and O...M...Gosh it was fricken awesome!

I have a question.

Where's Jermaine Dupri? :-\

Just curious... I just realized I haven't seen him in any of this.
