We at PakTeaHouse join the rest of the world in mourning the passing of the King of Pop. For many of us, he was the only face of western music in Pakistan the 1980s. We grew up admiring him, trying to moonwalk like him and trying to scream like him.
The King led a tormented life. May he rest in peace now. As for us, we were lucky to have lived in the era of the King of Pop.

I wish his genius hadn’t been polluted by controversy, but that seems to come with the turf.
Truly an icon.

You gave us great moments while you were alive.
Gods wanted to see your moonwalk so they called you back.

I regret the loss of the King of Pop Michael Jackson! Jacko is a legend. I hope he gets where he is now, finally in peace.
Leave also your last greeting at Michael Jackson on our site, thanks.
