i hav a question.
i've never ordered anything that required shipping before.
if 'michael' is due out in australia on the 10th, should i expect it a few days later cos of shipping or is that already taken into account for the 10th release date???
p.s awesome london underground poster!!
SO EXCITED
 
I like "DYKWYCA" and "APWNN" the most out of the album.
Already pre-ordered.

I must have been out of my mind at the time I posted. :)
Well, I wish they throw "BN" and "KYHU"away to give place for those two songs. :)

Thank goodness for iTunes playlists! I might make my own "album" :)
 
^^^ hey ele have you heard the whole album if so how is it?
Click to expand...
yes. It's not the album we could expect as Michael's last album, 'cause it's a mix of styles and jackson's era inside.... so, don't expect to hear a last year-album like Invincible or something, people who wanna hear Michael's last voice will be disappoined, people who like Michael's voice in general (from '80 'until now) will be happy. I'm a little disappoined that it's only 41 min.

hmmm... no, he's not lying... probably he made a mistake. The Earth Song part is not on the song.

How could he made that mistake if he listened the album? I don't believe him that he listened the whole album, I think that he listened leaked tracks and lied about other tracks. His review of the album is poor.

I trust you and Gaz about Earth Song ad-libs.
 
Ele what is your favourite song on the album? And are the tracks Breaking News, Keep Your Head Up and Monster different to the leaked versions we have heard?

Isn't only 3 older tracks (Much Too Soon 1981, Another Day 2000 and Behind The Mask 1981)? and all other tracks post-Invincible era?

hhmm.. no, the descriptions he made are corrects in many aspect. And, during these days journalists are invited to hear the album....

Hollywood Tonight, Another Day, Behind the Mask, Much too soon.... hmmm... no.... BN, KYHU and Monster are not different.... hmm... i remember maybe something on BN, like some censorship sound/words in TDCAU.... but i'm not sure, I didn't take notes.

hmm... no... the sensation you have is a "mix" of styles and years.

Thanks for that. I have really been looking forward to Best Of Joy. Can you share a little about that? What are your thoughts on it?

I don't like it. It reminds me something from Destiny album. I don't know why. But it's not one of my fav.

Ele74
 
Thanks Elenora. Interesting. Anyone know when Best of Joy was recorded?

I absolutely cannot wait to hear Another Day, Behind The Mask and Hollywood Tonight!!
 
I think its asinine they're putting a remix of a song MJ already finished and released and promoting it as a "recently completed" track. The Way You Love Me is no different than the remixes on Thriller 25 as far as I'm concerned.

What do you mean? Are you talking about production or vocals? Except AD, Behind The Mask and Much Too Soon is there any other older track (written and recorded before Invincible came out).. Can you tell us when Hollywood Tonight and Best Of Joy were recorded. Please..
 
What about Hollywood Tonight?
Click to expand...

It's a hit for sure. I suggested to sony as a single. I like it... the church intro, the beat, the beatbox, the rhythm, Michael's voice. Radio friendly for sure...

The Way You Love me it's just a better version of the previously released with this spoken intro of Michael explaining the melodie, probably at the phone... i think Sony *could* have in mind to release it as a single, but it's just an impression i had.

When i say this album is a "mix" I mean you'll find old and new material, you'll hear sounds from Off The Wall to Invincible. I didn't ask credits or features of the song, so i can't tell exactly when HT and BOJ were recorded... but i don't consider them recent material. For me the only recent material from MICHAEL are Hold My Hand and Another Day. Recent material for me is from 2005/2009 or voice like This Is It (The movie). You can include also the Cascio's tracks.

Thank you Ele! Do you like Cascio tracks?
 
man this is so stressful..
i think i need to lower my expectations for this album..
when i hear anything slightly negative about it my heart breaks a little bit...
 
I'm not sure I buy Eleonora's story.

Very sketchy and vague song descriptions which borrow heavily from a review we've already seen.

And isn't HT supposed to be from 2007??

I have to say Matty, Eleonora is one of the more 'trustworthy' sources on here, from my personal experience that is.

I just think if you've heard the album (even once) you would be able to share more details than that.

Who knows....

if you want you can ask me, but i didn't take notices, and I'm not saying HT is recorded in 1960 or 2010... i'm saying "It sounds like... the good old stuff".
the review you already saw, i just told you is correct. People who made it has listened the album.
