A Christmas song for you, written by Mark Henley who released it as a single on MJ's Sanskrit label in 1977. MJ sang this on the radio in 1974. A great version, an okay recording.

I'll try to put audio files at https://www.mjblue.com/songs from now on. In AAC (m4a) format.

So often, I think about Michael, and it's still so strange to realize that he is no longer with us.  His music, thank God, will always endure.  It is truly a big part of my life.  MJs  wonderful music gets me through very sad times, and is there to help me celebrate what few happy occasions I experience.  I miss him so much.  Peter

Paul Ashley has contributed another song sheet to the site: Ghost in this House

and

Dale Dickson has contributed his first:
Upon a Christmas Eve

They all can be found on the Lyrics & Chords page at https://www.mjblue.com/mjlyrics.html

Thanks, Dale & Paul!

Hi,
I've got a couple people who started registering but never finished. One is obviously a spammer but I'm not sure about the other.

To finish registering, all you have to do is click on the link on the confirming email you receive. If you have any problems, let me know. (The contact form is on the bottom of every page except this message board.)

This new message board has every feature and setting known to man EXCEPT: I do not get notifications of new postings. The first posting on this board besides mine was a spammer who took the time to register.

I'll have to try and get in the habit of checking this board every day to look for new posts and delete any spams.

So if your post isn't answered right away, you'll know why. Be sure to check the "Subscribe and receive email notification of new replies" when you post.

I miss the old board.

All of mjblue.com is now secure! So registering for this message board is now safe and encrypted. (Notice the https on all URLs.)

Many thanks to DD for the suggestion.

Hi,
Right now I have "Share & Misc" for the following sections:

New Forum  (which I'll change to Message Board)

Board Archives (original board posts 2002-2018)
Tributes
Miscellany (Everything Else)
Your MJ Stories
Guest Book (which I think I should change to Guestbook Archives)

I had this section named Mélange originally - which means a mixture, a medley. I don't know if this word is widely known (I certainly hadn't heard of it.) So then I changed it to Share & Misc. Maybe Forum & Misc? I'd appreciate any suggestions. Michael would have been my go to for this.

I listened to this on repeat during a long, slow, white knuckle, snowy commute a couple weeks ago.

Please let me know if there's something you don't like about this new board. A lot of customization is doable.

Thanks,
Cindy

Welcome to the Mj Message Board. I thought I'd post the first entry. Our website has gone through a major overhaul, and this message board is a new feature. We're hoping you like it. I'll be putting in my 2 cents from time to time. Thanks for listening, reading and visiting. Mj
