Speech: Michael Jackson – the King of Pop by Tyson

Did you like Michael Jackson? I am one of Michael’s biggest fans. He was the king of pop and the best musician that ever lived. Michael Jackson was the best dancer I ever saw in the world because of the moon walk and his clothes that he wore at his concerts.

He created the moon walk and also that movement when he pretends to fall forward and then backward. He has an enormous house as big as Disney land which is called Neverland like from the Peter Pan story. I like Michael Jackson’s house and cars and furniture. I liked Michael because he wore cool clothes and a cool shiny silver glove on one hand. He was the first singer to ever do that.

My favourite songs are Thriller, Beat it, You are not alone, We are the world, they are the best songs I ever heard. I like Michael’s Thriller video. In the video, when Michael and his girlfriend are watching a movie, she gets scared because of the werewolf and leaves the movie. Michael follows her out and then the song starts. I liked the dance moves, the costumes and the song as well.

The only thing is I did not understand why Michael wanted to throw his baby off the building. We will never know why he did that but I am sure he had a good reason. Michael would not hurt anyone, not even his own baby. I wonder what he was thinking and feeling? He also changed the colour of his skin. I think he should have left it the way God created him. In the end he took heaps of pills because he was in a lot of pain from all the surgeries he had.

It was with great sadness on Friday the 26th June, that I heard from Mrs Raman that Michael Jackson had died. Michael died at the age of 50 years, from an unexpected heart-related death.

Even though Michael is dead, his music will live on forever. He will always be the king of pop and the best musician of all times. I miss you Michael but thank you for leaving us all of your wonderful songs. Rest in peace Michael Jackson.

Dangers of Alcohol




Have you ever had alcohol? I have not but my family and other people do. Did you know that alcohol makes you dizzy? You could fall over onto the ground and you could make your nose bleed. I hate it. Some people have a fridge full of alcohol. I feel like throwing it out. Alcohol makes you sick and drunk. Drinking is dangerous because you could die in a crash if you’re driving. No one might be around and the car might catch on fire. It is dangerous for kids because they have to watch adults drinking. I do not want to drink alcohol because it makes people drunk and then they do stupid things. Some drunken people may hurt themselves or others. They might get angry and have a bad temper. The next day they cannot remember what they did. Mums and dads may swear, fight or hit each other when they are drunk and this makes the children sad and scared. And when the children grow up they may also drink and do the same things their parents did. Drinking destroys people’s lives. Drinking kills. If you drink, stop and if you don’t, never start.
