We Know What's Going On
by Jackie Jackson

Have you heard the news
The choice is up to you
It’s time for us to come together now

What are you waiting for?
We can’t take no more
We got to chase the dream
??

We can make that change
I know you feel the same
Call all your friends and shout it out

We’re going to take the lead
We’re going to make history
We’re not goin’ hesitate (?)\
We’re going to celebrate

Everybody
See, you know what’s going on
But together, we’re too strong
And the sun is going to shine
If we open up your eyes (yeah, yeah)

Gotta listen to your heart
We can make a brand new start
Cause today, we’re going to fly
Even higher than the sky (yeah, yeah)

Cause we know what’s going on
Now we understand
Let’s go hand in hand
I know we can build a brand new day

What are you waiting for?
We can’t take no more
We’re going to chase the dream

To build on your own
But you’re not alone
Together, let’s unite
And fight away

We’re going to take the lead
We’re going to make history
We’re not goin’ hesitate (?)
We’re going to celebrate

MJ’s voice from a 2002 speech: “Today, we can make a change in the world. Together, we can help stop racism. Together, we can help stop prejudice. We can help the world live without fear. “

Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
“It is our only hope and without hope, we are lost.”
See, you know what’s going on
But together, we’re too strong

based on the snippet from Itunes the song doesnt sound that good, the instrumentation is fine, jackie just has this weird vocoder/auto-tunish effect on his vocal, seems like he is trying to sound up to date, when he really shouldnt because he can actually sing quite nicely
 
I'm just going to say it, if no-one else will:

So now that they are the focus of the world's attention, because their BROTHER died, the Jackson brothers start working on music and release singles? Might as well use the attention we're getting for our own gain? What the hell?

I've refrained from commenting too much on the Jackson family's actions because I believe how they handle Michael's death, raise his children (or their own) is not our business. However with this, I just can't shut up. I like Jackie, he's really nice, but this is just wrong.

Thanks! :)


Well, nice song....
 
I'm just going to say it, if no-one else will:

So now that they are the focus of the world's attention, because their BROTHER died, the Jackson brothers start working on music and release singles? Might as well use the attention we're getting for our own gain? What the hell?

I've refrained from commenting too much on the Jackson family's actions because I believe how they handle Michael's death, raise his children (or their own) is not our business. However with this, I just can't shut up. I like Jackie, he's really nice, but this is just wrong.

well said:clapping: mj dieing is the best thing that happened to the brothers careers since diana ross presents the j5 was released. and how they all grab it. they didnt get the reunion tour they were hassling him to do for the last couple of years. they got the second best thing. i thought jackie was better than the others. he had showed dignity since june upto now. but i guess in the end hes a jackson and when oprah comes knocking etc...

I have to say, unfortunately I feel like this too.

Jackie is a nice guy though, like you said, so I can't see him thinking this way.

Looking at it another way, maybe Michael's death made Jackie realise life is short and he was inspired on to do his own thing now.

I think he has been working behind the scenes for a while (before Michael's death) with his son Siggy.
 
the song has a great message ! it must be used for more causes , like for charity organazations...and with MJ's speech at the end it will give MJ's legacy another dimention !
 
I didn't hear the song, I came into this thread "thinking" the song was posted. LOL!

But since I'm here, I'll just say: I wish "certain" members of the family would have had this much ambition while Michael was alive.

They wasted so much time WAITING for Michael to join them, and now that Michael's gone, they "appear" to have some much energy. Where was all of that energy before?
 
I personally like the song. I like the message, including the bit from one of Michael's speeches. It shows what Michael's all about: Love and Unity. I think this song could be a club hit.

It's because they used to live of Michael through the money he used to give to his parents........

..........Now they gotta work for a living!!!!!!

(obvious exception is Janet)!!!!!

i guess it was the dream of a reunion for the last 20 years. and jermaine going to the media every 6 months anouncing it. now they might aswell do something while theres an intrest in the next best things. its so sad how alot of them are trying to jump on the bandwaggon and using what happened to mj to relunch their own carrers.not surprising just embarassing.dont they realise how tacky they all look.dont bother answering that lol

ditto . I just think if they would of had done this when Michael was alive, he would of not been so stressed on paying to keep the family house, taking care of him mother , paying everybodies debts.

Maybe they tried but someone sabotaged them. Bob Jones wrote a book & he reportedly said Michael sabotaged his family, that Janet just squeaked by, but I know he would never do that. But somebody may have done that but it wasn't Michael.

Bob Jones admitted on the stand his book was full of lies...

I agree,, I don't think anyone sabotaged the family. I just think they all relied on MJ way too much and they lived off Katherine's money that she got from Mike. I just wonder what will happen when Katherine passes away. What will they do then?
