The Burn List

26. Jun, 2009 2 Comments

I call my running playlist the “Burn List”. I had it set for tomorrow’s race, but after Michael Jackson’s death, I’ve reworked it to add more MJ songs.

I was so sad to hear about Farrah Fawcett’s passing. Even though she was only on Charlie’s Angels for one season, Jill Munroe was always my favorite angel. But when I heard about Michael Jackson’s death, I was so devastated. I still am. I keep saying, “I can’t believe he’s gone.” I think this is how my parents’ generation must have felt when Elvis died.

I have always loved MJ. I had two songs on my original Burn List – Black and White and The Way You Make Me Feel. I decided to add more as a tribute to him.
