They heard it well before us. When the songs were first introduced. Before the over production began to try and clean them up
OMG when I first heard Break News I went on a Hysterical Rant on twitter - I mean I was upset and Livid - I later deleted my tweets becuase they were bad Realy really BAD I was so upset I broke down in tears. Becuase we were all waiting so exited and so full of hope to hear Michael again. after 2 bars I started sinking in my chair. I kept listening over and over. I still do somethimes. I hear Michael then I dont then i do then I dont .. I HATE THAT . He is in there somewhere but they really effed up all these songs so bad and added vocals as leads that are not MJ in my opinion to try fill in. I believe Eddie did have MJ vocals he recorded for songs but not enough to finish the songs so they tried to have a sound alike blend in and fill the gaps. Instead of using normal voices for back up they tried to make it sound like MJ. Its just to blatant the pronouciations and timing is all off for me. The vibrato is terrible and reeks though all the casico tracks.
Eddie should have let professionals work with what he had. I think he got greedy and wanted all the glory for himself and the fact that he said he destroyed and erased all masters and demos gives me more doubt. Who in their right mind would do that with MJ tracks. When as a producer he should know they could be reused on other projects or songs. Even if MJ is on the tracks they are so messed up no one will ever know for certain. Its caused so much pain and division in the fan base. I know MJ would hate what these songs have done in his fanbase. Yes he liked controversy but not the kind that hurt or upset his fans like these songs have done. I dont Blame anyone but Eddie Casico for his stupidty in destroying the original vocals and music and for the terrible work he did in trying to produce what ever he did have. I think everyone was caught up in the frenzy and excitement and even though the songs were produced so badly by Eddie and were questionable they all wanted it to be MICHAEL. I even enjoy the songs BN and Monster at times becuase I believe MJ has a part in these songs and his intentions were pure regardless of the mess Eddie casico created. Any way this is just my lame opinion and doesnt mean much in the grand scheme of things. I like to look foward and not back
I never post in here becuase I hate every bit of this. But now you know how I feel and where i stand. Ive always hinted
but never really took part in here and I probaly wont again. I dont see any point except to rant. That was my rant
Your opinion is not lame. :huggy:
Mine resonates closely to yours. Like you, I believe Eddie did have Micael's vocals. However, the vocals were either in very poor quality or not adequate to be releasable. In order to make use of the sketchy vocals, tons of effects and fillers are used to fill in the gap.
I don't think Eddie was greedy. I even think he may mean well. He may be too desperate and ambitious though. People who made bad judgement are not necessarily evil.
I listene to Breaking News, Monster and KYHU a lot lately. I figure I have distanced myself long enough from the songs to give the songs a second chance. Unfortunately, I still don't like them. The vocals are weak and soulless. There is simply not enough Michael. I may hear him somewhere. But, I hate the feeling of uncertainty when listening to MY MAN. I love him and want to feel him. There is a wall that separates me from Michael when I listen to th Cascio tracks. Even if proven that MJ is in 100% of the lead vocal, I don't think I can enjoy them. The tracks are too worked up and the vocals are messed.
Legally, I don't think there is a fraud involved. I think this kind of posthumous releases will keep coming in the future. I'd rather hold onto the catalogue from I Want You Back to Invincible. But, that's just me. May be I'm just too stubborn.
