this CD was originally given to a former Sony Music executive

8 tracks - superb production and excellent top-notch quality
(first track has 2 short defects)

HIGHLIGHTS:


the never-heard-before and excluded-from-release original and untouched mix of
"Much Too Soon" (2:30)
far better than the messed up mix by John McClain released on MICHAEL
probably the version Michael referred to when writing a note for Bruce Swedien which said:
Mix #"9" of "Much Too Soon" is great - Love, M.J.

the never-heard-before and excluded-from-release original and uncensored version of
"Money" (5:00)
WITH Michael Jackson swearing (INCLUDES words like "murder", this is the only record you'll ever hear him say this)

a demo version of "Earth Song" (5:57)

an uncut version of "Stranger In Moscow" (6:12)

an alternate mix of "Little Susie" (4:51)

the uncensored version of "They Don't Care About Us" (4:45) that was on early copies only



Also contains Michael's favorite song "Smile" (4:58) and "Childhood" (4:28).


All tracks are not final masters.

For 50 grand, they better be real... :lol:

Oh, and you should ask Korgnex about this. Last week or so, he posted a reversed snipped of what appeared to be an alternate version of Much To Soon, in the Debate Thread.

It's real. You must be rich to buy it though ^^

..... hopethebuyerleaksthesongshahah.
 
I'm really curious about Much Too Soon, Money and Stranger in Moscow. Hope they are real and we get to hear them some time.
 
where Kognex's snippet?

He posted it in the album debate thread a few days ago (maybe a week? dunno, my sense of time is really messed up)...

Look through his posts and I'm sure you'll find it. It's reversed though, so you'll have to reverse the snippet to get it 'right'. It has the vocals before and after the guitar solo but in this version there is no guitar solo so the "post-solo" vocals vocals just continue after the "pre-solo" vocals with no solo in the middle. If that makes any sense...
 
I think I'll eventually leak just like the Dangerous one. Sure, it might take some time, but eventually, it will leak...

I have yet to see the teddy riley acetate with Blood on the dancefloor and Jam demo, surface.
 
He's not saying "murder murder" in that money clip at all. Michael says the names of several successful, self made, business people throughout the album version of the song, the most easy to hear being "Trump". That Money snippet simply has those names closer to the front of the mix. He is actually saying "Murduch, Turner" as in Rupert Murdoch and Ted Turner respectively.
 
For some reason I think that his acetate would be more interesting than the dangerous one. Something more intriguing about the songs written for the history album.

I have no doubt in my mind that this will leak within a couple of years...

As always for Michael Jackson fans, it's a waiting game.

I think you're right. he doesn't say murder. I do hear "just hurt her", but you may be right about Turner.
 
50.000 dollars hahahahaha.

We'll just wait for the leak. But I still don't get why people ask so much money for it and not share it with other fans. If I was rich and could buy a song for 5000 dollars, I'd do it and share it. Wouldn't care about the money.
