This Is It ... for Jackson's CD sales as well as his return to perform in London

Published: Today

MICHAEL JACKSON's London gig announcement has sent sales of his classic albums soaring higher than his high-pitched voice.

Web retailer Play.com saw a 110 per cent increase in purchases of Bad overnight with Dangerous up 165 per cent.
It follows *****'s revelation that he'll perform 10 gigs at the O2 this July.
The 25th Anniversary version of Thriller was also flying off the virtual shelves up 155 per cent while 1979's Off The Wall recorded the biggest increase of 200 per cent.
A Play.com spokesman said: “With the King of Pop back in the UK it seems that music is back in the hearts of British MJ fans.”

I would hope it had the same effect in the US but i doubt it :( i hate how hes..well really hated here. the CNN news coverage over the conference was very negative. you could post comments about what you think of Michael on a facebook page and some where read on the air. went something like this: "well as it turns out--the majority of the comments are actually possitive!....lets read some of the comments. this one says "I dont understand why you want want to go see him Michael Jackson SUCKS!"..."

and after the conference happened, more where read, not one of them positive. that isaw anyways. i got angry and turned off the tv.

:rant:

The thing that confuses me about this is what makes people want to buy albums after announcements?

Its like 'Oh, Michael Jackson is coming back! I feel like buying one of his albums!' >.
