Thinking of you on this day. You impacted on my life in the most positive way, so I want to thank you.
I'm sure you are in a happy place, "sculpting" your music and feeling all the love we send you.

Rediscovering your music as I sift through my vinyl and struck by the timeless brilliance of your work. You live on through your music and your family. Never forgotten. RIP Mick.

Le meilleur bassiste de sa génération, un style musical très caractéristique du même niveau qu'un maitre de la peinture qui apposerait sa touche à une peinture pour lui donner de la substance.
Son talent me manque beaucoup. Repose en paix.

Such a creative genius of a man.
I admired his basslines on Numan's Dance album of 1981. Sublime music.
My favourite track for Mick's bass on that album was Slowcar to China.
I'd love to see the musical score for that!!!
R.I.P.LMIck Karn. Sadly missed.

Thank you for this opportiunity for say thank you Mick for everything you gave to me. The inspiration will never leave. The beauty is forever. The juxtaposition is truly beguiling, bemusing, and ultimately everything. Love is all have to give, I hope it's enough.... xxx

Secretly my not knowing bassist of all times. I was a Japan fan from day 1 untill the very end. Now, 2024 I realize I miss the sounds you have made and shaped my thoughts and being. Thanks and more.

Sitting here with tears in my eyes after reading the biography, much of which I was already familiar with having been a huge admirer of Mick since Japan. Truth be told, he is my favourite bass player of all time and he still blows my 65 year old mind with his incredibly original style.

I'd like to thank you personally for all the positive (and weird) emotions of your job, I'd take a plane tomorrow! Unfortunately, it is not possible to convey my affection to you. I imagine you and Pastorius arguing about which riff to use, I imagine you serene, smiling and rhythmic. Don't rest in peace, keep on producing genius things man.

I saw you once pass by my school in Marylebone, circa 80's. I wish I could have told you what a fan I was. I'm still enjoying your creativity and thinking of you at this time.

Thank you Mick for expressing yourself through music and art. Thank you for being relentlessly different and delving into your imagination and soul and bringing it to life for all to hear and see. You are deeply missed. Without a doubt you and your music will continue to inspire and encourage others to do the same.
All the love and peace to you and your family and friends

Mick, I almost forgot today was the anniversary of your death.
A long time ago, when I saw you coming out of the back door of the HMV building in Niigata City, I regretted not being able to say hello to you.

Special memories of the early 80s listening and then - finally - getting to see Japan at Lancaster Uni on their farewell tour. Down at the front I was determined to stretch out when Mick was close and I just and so managed to touch his knee... and get a big grin from him as I jubilantly jumped up and down, waving at him, yelling his name! RIP Mick and hope that today especially, and every day, your family, friends and fans remember you with a smile xx
