Usher performed the Michael Jackson song Gone to Soon at the Michael Jackson Memorial Service. Michael Jackson was one of Usher’s idols. Towards the end he struggled to hold it together.

“Gone Too Soon” Lyrics

Like A Comet
Blazing ‘Cross The Evening Sky
Gone Too Soon

Like A Rainbow
Fading In The Twinkling Of An Eye
Gone Too Soon

Shiny And Sparkly
And Splendidly Bright
Here One Day
Gone One Night

Like The Loss Of Sunlight
On A Cloudy Afternoon
Gone Too Soon

Like A Castle
Built Upon A Sandy Beach
Gone Too Soon

Like A Perfect Flower
That Is Just Beyond Your Reach
Gone Too Soon

Born To Amuse, To Inspire, To Delight
Here One Day
Gone One Night

Like A Sunset
Dying With The Rising Of The Moon
Gone Too Soon

Gone Too Soon

    Dear Jermaine Jackson,

    your brother Michael will forever be in our
    hearts. His gifts touched all of us. His songs:
    “Heal the World”, “Man in the Mirror” and
    “Will You Be There”, and more have
    encouraged many of us to use the good gifts
    we all have inside ourselves. He taught us to
    look for the good in each other, not to judge
    or critize. His music reminds us that it’s love
    that really matters. I know he must be now
    singing with all the other Angels in Heaven.
    God blessed us with Michael and you and all
    your family.
