It's gonna be the Akon version: confirmed by Sony 5 mins ago.

Might not tickle all your fancies but I strongly believe Sony are making a smart call here.

Thanks for the update Damien

I could cry. This is not going to wash very well in the UK. Akon isn't that big over here, the song is bland... massive mistake.


:( :( :(
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

Answer to what? Can't answer if there's no question :D Yes, Hold My Hand got leaked online in 2008.

I didn`t know whether the song came into his album or not?
Thanks for the answers anyway.

Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

lol so MJs first new single in nine LONG years will be...AKON featuring Michael Jackson. Gee i can't wait..
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

hopefully it sounds a hell of a lot better then the one that was leaked.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

Why would they release the version that has Akon singing more?
That doesn't really make sense since this is supposed to be Michael's first single not Akon's.
Not only that but Akon is not as popular as he was a couple of years a go when they made that song. He was everywhere back then.
I'm not sure that collaboration will get a big response.

But maybe Sony indeed knows what it's doing. Who knows maybe it will catch on and become a hit. Stranger things have happened I guess.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

Whers this confrmation??
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

I can't believe that I am about to say it but!!! (lmao)

QUIT BITCHING AND MOANING AND WHINING PEOPLE! This is a positive moment! We are about to have the first single in 9 years! don't ruin the thread with your negativity!

(lmao)
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

Me either! Lmfao. So it was quite surprising that people consider it/them as potential competition.

In the UK they surely will be a strong competition. Worldwide I don't think so.

Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

This may have been mentioned, but Harvey Levin, owner of TMZ, has said he has heard some of the tracks and he says the sales could very easily be at Thriller level - and he isn't even a fan.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

Releasing Akon duet just adds fuel to the fire that the rest of the album is fake. Disaster in the making!
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

so .... such a media agenda is good only if fans want to protest against them=articles and journalists and their negative articles or news about Michael (lately Oprah), but not if fans are to support and fight for Michael?

A bit weird point of view how to be an MJ fan....

OK..., I will wait for Dec. 20....

I support MJ, but I'm not willing to obsess about Take That and stuff.

True, it may be a smart move. I can see a lot of non-fans being attracted to HMH when it plays on the radio..
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

I really like the akon song and it is radio friendly i do realise every ones concerns though.

Maybe they have some footage of him and akon in the studio, maybe thats why they picked it, coz they could use footage for a video??
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

I can't believe.

Sale won't be higher if you put there AKON

How does it? REAL Michael singing with Akon suggests that he doesn't sing in other songs?
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

Right, my bad. That's true. I was worried that they were a big thing worldwide and I haven't even heard of them. Well then, I'm not so worried.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

:wild:

How excited am I for this new album...

I don't even care if it's not Michael; I'll take it!

:wild:

Lol, I already had it two years ago.

I am much, much more excited to hear "Breaking News".

We will see but to me it doesn't sound right. If it's the version that was leaked, that's more an Akon song feat. MJ than the other way around. This sucks. :(

No, it has never been officially released, until now apparently.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

Deal with it people! Sony are planning the biggest album in a LONG time and Hold My Hand is just the first step into it! There WILL be MORE singles to follow! And you will have ALL the tracks in your hands in mid-December ANYWAYS!

Be happy we are getting all this stuff! MICHAEL, VISION, The Experience, Breaking News (free of charge), One More Chance MUSIC VIDEO!

Michael Jackson is DEAD.... We are getting ALL OF THE ABOVE.... and some of you COMPLAIN??????

FFS! Michael could have passed away after releasing EVERY shread of material he ever made! But no.. he passed away with material still in the pipeline... and its coming to you, and some of you complain!? :(

I agree! Even if you guys don't like HMH, it's just ONE song from the album. It will attract interest from Akon's fanbase and sell more albums because of that reason.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

Akon is a nice person and supported MJ (check the video where he shuts a reporter up when he tries to say something bad about MJ. the video's in Let's talk about Michael forum).

Releasing a duet will be - first - continuing Michael's tradition of duets as first singles and - second - a chance to promote it with a performer... Of course, I would love for it to have more Michael's vocals.... But I understand the Estate's choice. And I think it's a great song and am happy that general public will finally get a chance to listen to it.

Is TeddyRiley1 the official twitter account from Teddy Riley?
I guess no...
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread -"Breaking News" Announcement Page 464

I find it surprising that people don't take them seriously. 1,340,000+ tickets sold in a day for their UK tour. They're huge. I don't want to dwell on the subject but in the UK they are BIG competition (I don't think there is a band/artist more popular atm over here). What will go in MJ's favour (for Christmas Number 1) is that Michael's album will be released a month after Take That's... so its very likely he'll get No.1 which will be fantastic! :D
