THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds

Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

The beginning???...

That's just some strings man ;) same as YRMW.

I believe the second version was recorded fully by an orchestra.

But wow... what a great song. I love it. Can't wait to hear it on Monday.
 
Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

this is a new song , new vocals. May have been a reworking from an old track in the 80s sure. But this was the song specially used for the This Is It shows that michael re recorded this year to debut at the shows !!!

really gettin tired of all the critical and hate on these boards as of late guys
-Michael's voice sounds 80's
-the Jackson brothers are in the background vocals and Michael hasnt worked with them since the 80's
-there's just piano and finger snaps, no actual melodies, musical arrangements.....

THE SONG IS OLD.

Far as I know, and I searched the board a bit, Michael didn't work with his brothers for This is it......they didn't lay down background vocals recently......why are we fooling ourselves?

This Is It (Michael Jackson)
Michael Jackson
Recording Year: 1980

It was registered in November 1984

so i believe this clears confusion ;)

Thanks Dutchie. It's down now. I was on twitter and everyone is talking about it on there & Kenny O had just tweeted I wonder if he is helping take them down off youtube? i heard the snippet on the sony link though..

What did he say??
 
Am I the only person who has never heard of Safire or their version of this song??
No, you're not. I looked her up on Wiki and it says she had a hit in '89 that was high enough up the US charts that I should've known it (not this song, but another one) and I was like... huh? Don't know her name or any of her songs. Weird.

Yeah... seems like it is the original recording from the 80's. I'd love to hear newer vocals but oh well...

The song as it is... it's still much better than anything new out there. Really.

That's strange, it's working for me!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sox8I6N6XWg ...yup, its working. :mello:


I just have to say: I just LOVE the so called 'fans' commenting on the video.....they can't even spell his name right. Losers. ;)
 
Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

What did he say??

kenny didn't say anything about 'This Is It' but since alot of people was tweeting about the snippet being on youtube & Kenny was tweeting too,I figured he got 'hip' to it being on youtube. because a s soon as it is uploaded it says removed due to claim by Sony. i'm just guessing thats what happened. I've tried sereval links 2 youtube from people here in USA

As for that link above on youtube... this is what it says when i click it.

Whatever happened to the a place without no name anyways? That song ROCKED!!! :punk:

so stop the whole debate from which era the vocals are.
THe vocals are from 1980!
And when you buy the This is it Cd you will get two versions of the song. The second version comes with a new orchestra music that was recorded a few weeks ago.
 
Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

do you think the version we have heard is the original one from 1980 or the new one??
 
Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

Ohhh boy....
Why it's so important if the song is new or old ... ?!?!
What's the DEAL???
It's MICHAEL'S!!!
He's singing
He composed it

@#$%
 
Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

I heard this earlier! Fantastic. :heart:
He sounds amazing.
 
Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

I think his voice sounds like it's from around the Bad Era? His voice is not as "light" and smooth as during his Jacksons days around 1980. His voice is too sharp her too, so my guess would be around the bad era.
 
Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

Yes totally, these vocals by MJ are very current! any big MJ fan will be able to identify that!!!

I'm almost positive that the vocals are new. I'd put money on it, actually.

the song was recorded in 1980...registered in 1984

Vocals are not current, you can hear the youth in his voice plain as day.

*shakes head in disbelief*
 
Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

We will have to agree to disagree, yes old song, but new vocals in my opinion!

Anyways sounds great can't wait to hear it all.

Re: THIS IS IT new song 43 seconds (or listen to Safire's version I Never Heard!)

The song is great it's called NEW because we never heard it before! Doesn't matter the yr it was recorded people! lol I mean we can't have everything of MJ in one shot! Leave room for later on. Because there is a lot that will be coming! I mean, damn let the movie and soundtrack come out first! GEEZ!

The version of This is it on Youtube from that girl safire is very nice too!

dont debate on what is new ....call it "lost and found" it is out now so it is alive again - that is what matters
