im very very disappointed now that DYKWYCA is not on the album :(
 
I hope everyone here will buy the single to make MJ #1.

HMH is MJ - so please all of you support the song and make MJ #1
 
Uh, can someone help clarify this? What the hell is this? LMAO.
Someone ALSO named Michael Jackson ALSO coming out with an album ALSO named "MICHAEL", ALSO being released December 14, 2010? :|

I feel a lawsuit coming on!
 
The only little thing I am disappointed about is the singles not being released as CD-singles.

All this digital singles is crap. Give me real oldfashioned CD singles.
 
OMG i posted this tracklist last night before the announcement and everyone that saw it said it had to be fake! Someone on another forum said it sounded as fake as Dolly Parton's boobs! Well all i am disgusted to see they left the Cascio tracks on and equally disgusted to see such that 50 cent is on an MJ album. (now counting the stacks of money makes sense ha ha lol)
I am exited too though and i will download the seven tracks that aren't a fraud. (in my opinion)

I think this should be reported to the Estate.
 
Re: See the entire MICHAEL cover

mmmm I don't know what to say..the painter has made some weird choices IMP. And I also think that Debbie should be there, she is the mother of his children..and what about Liz Tylor? I cant find her or did I miss something?
 
Re: See the entire MICHAEL cover

They made some horrible changes to the cover! Look at MJ in the Captain EO outfit! What happen to the face it was different last time and why are the arms soo damn long now!? Wasn't MLK behind mj off the wall pic? Well, not anymore! SMH



That's true.There are some changes,for some reason they even changed the tiger's ears o_O

Here's the first version we got :

And here's the one that I can see now on the official page :

I've been going back and forth with this cover.I didn't like it at first sight,then it grew on me and I was enjoying finding all the little details.There were things I didn't like,but I was excited over the new album and I was ready to embrace it.
I still though there were portions that didn't make any sense on a cover of a Michael Jackson's album,things that didn't have anything to do with his music and little embarrassing details like the Prince symbol,but I sure didn't expect this...
Is this a music album cover or a biography? :scratch:I don't understand what all these faces of other people are doing there and I don't think it's a good idea,cause you're always going to leave someone out.

Maybe it's that I'm feeling too negative and that spreads over anything and everything,but I'm not liking it right now.
 
Ok this is what I think, I don't like Breaking News because I think that Michael would not be happy with it and because James Porte vocals are on the track. We've tried to remove Cascio tracks but we've failed. Now is the time that we all unite and support this album, not because Teddy Riley, not because John McClain, not because Sony, but because of Michael Jackson and his legacy. His legacy must live and we are his soldiers of L.O.V.E. We have to make Hold My Hand number one all around the world and the album too. I invite all Michael Jackson fans to support this release no mather what we think about those 3 tracks. I realized that the tracklist is decided and there is nothing we can do to change it. I didn't change my mind about these songs but I changed my mind about this whole project and I am going to support it and I think we all should. I am going now to pre-order the album again and I invite you all to do the same. Lets bring Michael back on the top, lets make him Number One again!
 
close this thread

and make new poll pls!!!


its senseless now ;)
 
If you buy this album, you don't suport his art!

French fans WILL NOT SUPPORT THE ALBUM!

We don't want to give our money for fake music!

We are fan of the King! We want to defend his legacy!

Don't come to say me : if we don't buy, his children will not have money blablabla! It's bullshit! His children don't need money!

His children need to see there are fans who support HIS ART!

It's not about Money with Michael IT'S ABOUT LOVE L.O.V.E!


" 100 Michael Jackson fan-clubs around the world have come together to ask the Estate of Michael Jackson and Sony Music to remove from the forthcoming "Michael" album the tracks produced with or by the Cascio brothers.

The international Michael Jackson fan community strongly feel that a new Michael Jackson album should not include songs that they feel are not Michael's.
The overwhelming response that we, fan-clubs, have received from our members expressing doubts over the Cascio tracks should not be ignored.

Michael Jackson fans around the world ask that the Estate of Michael Jackson and Sony Music respect our feelings and our expertise in this matter.
We are the future supporters of all the products that you will put out.
We ask that no doubt as to the origin of a song should ever surround the release of a Michael Jackson album.

The origin of the Cascio tracks is not clear enough for them to be included in this first new album since Michael Jackson's death.
Should you carry on with the release of the album as it stands, it would cast a shadow of doubt, discontent and frustration over any future release.

We know there are enough original unreleased songs to complete the album without the questionable ones.

Michael Jackson fans ask the estate of Michael Jackson and Sony Music to take our claim into consideration and respect our strong opposition to the release of "Michael" as it currently stands.

We will do what we deem necessary to honor the memory and legacy of Michael Jackson.

I thought about commenting this but I can only say.....:doh:.
You just can"t stop telling ppl what to do, can you ?
Are you from Max Jax, maybe ?
 
Enough with the boycott nonsense, it's only hurting MJ's legacy by less sales which is what the media reports on. Just end the act and look on the bright side here.

me too if michael was here he would be in tears :(
Michael wouldn't be in tears because this wouldn't be even happening if he was here. But he is not here, and we have to accept that this is happening now.

I will definitely buy the album and can't wait to hear the songs!

Behind the Mask - Michael Jackson's rarest recording?
July 1, 2009 10:40 AM Subscribe

Michael Jackson penned and recorded lots of songs, many of which remain unreleased. Perhaps the most infamous, and rarest recording, is his version of Behind the Mask. Legend has it that upon hearing Yellow Magic Orchestra's original track, somewhen around 1979, Quincy Jones fell in love with the track, and he and Michael worked together on their own version. Jackson wrote new lyrics for it - adding to those of Ryuichi Sakamoto and Chris Mosdell - and eventually recorded it during his Off The Wall sessions. For unknown reasons the track never made the final cut of, arguably, Jones' and Jackson's greatest work. Not long afterwards Greg Phillinganes, Jackson's keyboard player, released his own version of the song, which was later taken up and re-recorded by Eric Clapton for his 1986, Phil Collins produced album, August. The track has since been recorded/remixed by Human League, Senor Coconut, Orbital and others. Does an original Jones/Jackson recording of the song even exist? Perhaps, as the world continues to mourn the star's sad death, someone will finally allow us a listen.
