was it ever confirmed by anyone that Blue Powder is by Gary Hearne and not MJ? any interviews or something? can't seem to find any
It was. The tweet was deleted but it said this:was it ever confirmed by anyone that Blue Powder is by Gary Hearne and not MJ? any interviews or something? can't seem to find any
Yeah, TMZ is just unstoppable. They always know stuff.I remember there being pictures where the sisters (I think all 3 Rebbie, Latoya and Janet) walked out of Michael's house 1 or 2 days after his death with big filled plastic bags.
so there was also private video-footage Michael celebrating Paris birthday with his kids (Paris to Prince: It`s my birthday not yours) which was sold to a paper and was everywhere in the TV just few days after his death. I really think it was Michaels home.
Now he just made this thread more confusing lol.
What about This Had To Be? With Brothers Johnson. Maybe there's a solo version.No source I’ve been able to find.
Off the Wall almost certainly doesn’t have any material left over. Even when MJ put together the 2001 special edition, it’s the only album that didn’t feature at least one outtake. There are plenty of titles but so far we’ve gotten no actual evidence that any late ‘70s outtakes exist.
I thought these vocals might have actually been from 2008?I’ve always thought Michael’s vocals in the 2008 version of Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ sounded too youthful for being recorded circa that time. Were they pitched up? Were they taken from some 80s outtake?
It's been confirmed for years that Tomboy has incomplete vocals.
They were almost certainly pitched up, if that’s the case. Late 2000s Michael actually sounds like late 2000s Michael when you lower the pitch of that song.I thought these vocals might have actually been from 2008?
Nah, his voice sounds normal in Hold My Hand; in the 2008 version of WBST, however, it sounds like he was magically turned into a teenager again.They pretty much sound just like Hold My Hand vocals
He wrote lyrics for an earlier version entitled "you not me". It's unknown if he ever demoed these.What about This Had To Be? With Brothers Johnson. Maybe there's a solo version.
Definitely a demo existsWhat about This Had To Be? With Brothers Johnson. Maybe there's a solo version.
That is not completely right. John said the focus isn't on unreleased music at the moment. That doesn't mean they've written off unreleased music, just that there won't be any for the foreseeable future as their focus is currently on other projects, I hope the estate releases more music from the vault again at some pointJohn Branca recently spoke about Michael Jackson's unreleased songs and according to him there are no plans to release them in the future.
Obviously the focus will be on the Biographical Film and the MJ Musical
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it that all John Barnes has said is that Tomboy was incomplete? Not that the vocals itself was incomplete, but the song overall? After Damien said that the version he heard didn't have vocals a lot of us were uncertain if MJ had recorded vocals for it, this is big news sort of.It's been confirmed for years that Tomboy has incomplete vocals.

Tomboy was mentioned in the MJ Cast Interview with Matt Forger and that's when Forger mentioned it was later given to Roger Troutman."As far as tomboy, I didn't make it and was not fully completed." - John Barnes
I always assumed there was an incomplete vocal
the estate isn't going to put much into anything if it's not going to make them money. At this point, just give us ultimate edition solo albums with as much material as they can find and call it a day. I don't even care if we never see T40 at this point because they dropped the ball big time on that release. Hell, we're still waiting for a proper release of Making of Thriller since John did say it was being remastered years ago.Yeah the state of the vocals was never talked about until now. Hopefully the song has enough vocals to be put on a Bad re-issue.
I don't care that much about the estate not wanting to make a new album, but they could very well make Bad 40 without doing much work and it would mean a lot to fans. They could put songs like Buffalo Bill, Turnin' Me Off, Make Or Break, Tomboy, Crack Kills, Changes, the 1986 demo of Chicago 1945 and a lot more on disc 2 and it would make for one hell of a tracklist. They could also throw in some remastered clips on the meantime. I would love a project like that to happen even if it was as half-assed as T40.

It's super obvious they were pitched up, lmao. You can have all the talent and vocal prowess in the world, but that’s not going to stop aging and the changes it brings to your voice without some tweaking.No? Mj sounds very youthful on those vocals and did a great job of imitating how he used to sound for that track but it's obvious they are not from the 80s lol.

These vocals were recorded in October 2007 – one of the few things we know beyond a shadow of a doubt were tracked in the Cascio basement.I’ve always thought Michael’s vocals in the 2008 version of Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ sounded too youthful for being recorded circa that time.

It's possible! Would definitely love to figure this one out,What about This Had To Be? With Brothers Johnson. Maybe there's a solo version.
I assumed the same, but Damien said that the version he heard was instrumental only, and the melody comparison was a synth/guitar or something of the sort. Glad to get confirmation.I always assumed Tomboy had MJ vocals. The whole it being described as having a similar melody to remember the time thing.
