Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

There will be more recent pics on the back of the cover, im certain. I am happy with the cover, and the name. Can't wait to hear breaking news!!! (Also would be awesome name for first single!!)
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

click on "zoom" on the image, that's the most high-res copy i've seen. you can zoom in 3 times. if you do, you can see it's a golden fish

Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

Does anyone know if I order the CD and DVD bundle, do I get the DVD sent first or do I receive it all at the same time?
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

I don't mind the cover. I kind of like it. :) I hope it continues with HIStory and Invincible (and maybe TII in some way?) on the back, but in any case I like it. And I know that no matter WHAT cover (ANY cover) was chosen, some people would hate it. :lol: Fact. No matter what, someone's not going to like it, so there's no way for everyone to love it anyway. It could be the coolest dang cover ever made and someone would be here saying, "I don't like it at all". :hysterical: So, whichever.

I'm just trying to comprehend this on a deeper level.... on MONDAY (MONDAY!) we're going to hear a NEW song from 2007 streaming... oh, the joy and elation and the tears of sadness that still follow...

So true.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

I love it!
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

The cover art continues, it's only PART of the full painting...


well then they should have used that other part of the painting as the front cover and this part as the back cover.

I like this painting in general. It's a nice painting. And I even think Michael would have loved it as well and probably would have put it on a wall in his house lol but still I think these images from 25 years ago don't fit the album of recent music.

I really feel that by choosing this art as a cover they show that they are ashamed of Michael's appearance and I think it's insulting towards Michael.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

I really like the concept of the cover, the use of bright, warm colors, and the overall complexity of the image. What I don't like, is the pictures itself. Allthough the cover most likely continues to the back of the booklet, it just seems wrong to use a 25 year old picture to market recently recorded material. I can understand the concept of picturing Mike's career throughout the booklet, but why not use the most recent pics on the front, and Thriller/OTW pics in the back?

Imagine a painting along the lines of the Ebony photoshoot; that would in my opinion have made a much better cover. Michael looked amazing throughout every phase of his life. Haters won't buy the album anyway, so why go to such efforts to appease them? This would have been a truely fantastic cover for an album full of Thriller/OTW outtakes. For the new album? Not so much.

But that's enough negativity for now. The cover aside, it is great to finally have the official announcement, I am REALLY exited to hear Breaking News and the album is being released THIS YEAR! :D

Exactly.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

Omg omg omg! Finally, finally an announcement. I'm just trying to take this all in at the moment..... Wow, I can hardly breathe..

WOOOAAAAAAHHH!!
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

This Cover is Awfull...

But what is insulting towards MJ is this Mistake of putting the "love symbol" from Prince on an MJ album...

Sony is IRRESPONSIBLE and Jackie Jackson Too...

I'm very angry.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

Next to the tiger.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

Just posted about the new album on another music board.

Someone replied with this:

"Isn't their controversy about who is actually singing on these songs? Micheals family were claiming that some impostor sang on some of them?"
I'm pretty certain that the imposter singing all the songs is the same body-double guy they used in TII! :cheeky:
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

On amazon you can zoom really good in the cover. The quality doesn't get worse.

So there you can see every little detail.

In the bobble under the M is a feodora. And glasses in another.

So nice cover.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

lol i cant get over the fact that we have a set date for the album and you are all bitching about the cover... i dont care whats on the cover. We are getting New songs from Michael and all you people care about is a damn cover. Which btw is all mj i see nothing on there dealing with Prince nor do i want to waste my time looking for it.

Damn people you are all Selfish!
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

and about the prince symbol: remember that there was a time when duet rumours were being discussed some years ago in the 2000s (no connection to bad era). does someone has a link back to those days?

what it there was some truth to those reports and something actually got recorded. if it was not finised back then it might have been completed now. if that is the case and that stuff made it's way to the album the symbol would make perfect sense...
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

omg, I've just noticed the prince symbol. that's embarrassing. probably it's not to late to notify the Estate so that they could eraze it??
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

Yeah. Expect more whining on Monday upon hearing the new song. No matter what. :D

I most certainly expect that on Monday. lol

It's very much like the old days on the forum when new Michael related stuff was released.

Except this time without Mike. :(-_-
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

With the new album on it's way you can pretty much expect the media to air a negetive documentary on MJ. Just because MJ has died i wouldn't put it passed them. They enjoy trying to knock him down. Keyword being try
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

Because I am so shocked and mesmerized...
This will be anfull NEW album right??? because the cover art is 'greatest hits' like....

It looks like it's for a greatest hits CD to me also. I hope no one gets confused.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -MICHAEL Release date Dec 14th

We shouldn't complain, a new video and DVd set in just 3 weeks and next month new music. Finally we're getting something if you know what I mean
