When Kemadasa master passed away, no body in EK turned a hair. And yet this man gets the same kind of respect that was shown to the forces ?coolgayathra said:නො නො
that is not the point
we all love him
the greatest entertainer all time
great man
great lover of children and music
great service to music
and healed millions hearts
that is why
we dont wanna mix our army heroes with mj
that is totally different thing
he dont wanna be sri lankan to salute a greta person
we loved him alywstwisted said:lol reminds me how nirvana made it this big
and it's actually pathetic how some ppl just started appreciating him right after his death even in here at ek. this is no different to what dushyanth did.
we dont want mj to know srei lankakosandpol said:When Kemadasa master passed away, no body in EK turned a hair. And yet this man gets the same kind of respect that was shown to the forces ?
This being a patriotic SL community site that can bad mouth pakistan for winning a cricket match (when Pakistan was one country that help SL in its time of need) now wants to pay tribute to a singer who probably didnt even know that SL exists ?
Where's the rational or logic in that ?

twisted said:lol i was thinking the same...kemadasa was much more creative thus hard to get into...now no disrespect here, but i don't think mainstream pop fans have much taste in music. at this other thread about his greatness i noticed, ppl trying to assign his king of pop crown to weasles like justin timberlake. and apart from his big image in music scene what this man had done to deserve such respect. he supposedly sexually abused lil kids, he refused to remain the way he was born and changed his skin color, which must have been a disgrace to black americans. this is going to be a big let down to soldiers who were formerly respected and tributed by being mentioned in sigis.
ya that cricket example is a good one. how many of these guys thought that would be cool, pay respect to kemadasa master at their sigis but mj. yet they can't stand a sri lankan supporting another cricket nation.

meh, dont you realize that by giving the same tribute that was given to the forces, to MJ, you're actually demeaning the value of that gesture ?coolgayathra said:we dont want mj to know srei lanka
we dont want his money
or help
we appreciate pakistan
i never insluted paksiatn
most people said bad things beacuse some buggers insluted sl team and said
paksiatn zindabad
that is why
no need to mix those things
music is a universal langauge
we hear them and we become happy
when ever i feel sad
i used to hear songs
that is why people like mj are imporatant
he healed millions hearts
we all love him
so what is arguemntkosandpol said:meh, dont you realize that by giving the same tribute that was given to the forces, to MJ, you're actually demeaning the value of that gesture ?
If the man deserves a tribute, give him one but use some other gesture/method for it.
