The pop star Michael Jackson has died aged 50. Fellow musician Robin Gibb of The Bee Gees pays tribute to the king of pop.
We have not only lost a great friend in Michael but also a wonderful, sensitive human being. The Bee Gees heard music with the same ears. He had a great voice and millions of people yet to be born will sing his songs. This tragedy should teach us a lesson to value and praise those gifts while we still have them in the world. If even a small portion of the praise that is bestowed on Michael Jackson now in death was given to him last year in life, he might well still be with us. That is the sad truth. One consolation is that he will triumph by his legacy.
Robin Gibb will be appearing on a special edition of Newsnight on Friday 26 June 2009 at 10.30pm on BBC Two.
