Xscape General Discussion

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Yeah, it would be great to hear that song. But I think the song is Stop Throwing Your Life Away from the Bad sessions (just because it was considered for MICHAEL and Neff-U remixed it in 2010).

or "What you do to me" or "Tomboy" - both completed in 1985
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

To me it's:

1. Do You Know Where Your Children Are

2. Xscape
3. A Place With No Name
4. Slave To The Rhythm
5. Love Never Felt So Good
6. Blue Gangsta

Haha, you don't like Blue Gangster do you :p

1. Do You Know Where Your Children Are
2. Blue Gangsta

Never be afraid to post your opinion here, so long as you speak about other things, lol. I don't expect everyone to love every aspect of the new album. But don't focus on the negative often; focus on the positive. It makes it a better place :).

That is censorship because it suggest comments have to fit a mold to be acceptable. As long as the comment complies with MJJC rules and pertains to Xscape, it is acceptable. Acceptable does not and should not equal agreement.

The cover is as frightening as it was when I first saw it. I will still purchase the deluxe cd regardless. Just a point view.

I wonder why HiStory was not represented. Is it being represented by HFITS?

I agree it has a pretty big chance to be on there, but looking at the title of the song, would it be a love song? It might even be a title we have never heard before (like some of the Bad25 demo's).

I think Hot Fun is post Invincible era. 2004-2005.

That's definitely a huge possibility, considering it is a completely finished song. But Vogel never really specified when in the 1980s the song was from. It could easily be from the 1981-1982Thriller sessions (Rolling the Dice, Heartlight); the 1983-1984 Victory sessions (What's Your Life, Buffalo Bill); the 1985-1987 Bad sessions (Make or Break, Tomboy); or the very early Decade sessions (Alright Now, any other songs done with L.A. Reid and Babyface). Of course, it could also be a title we aren't familiar with.

That is censorship because it suggest comments have to fit a mold to be acceptable. As long as the comment complies with MJJC rules and pertains to Xscape, it is acceptable. Acceptable does not and should not equal agreement.

This again? *sigh* well, okay.

It is not censorship. Nowhere in my post did I say that opinions were not allowed unless they were strictly positive. What I did say was that it is quite annoying whenever a single user only posts when he/she sees that the conversation is revolving around the album cover. Yes, you don't like the cover, tygger. That is totally fine. But I've seen your other posts as well; from what I've gathered, you seem happy about the project as a whole, and you've posted very supportive comments. You don't post solely about your dislike towards the album cover. That is where the difference lies.

I wonder why HiStory was not represented. Is it being represented by HFITS?

HIStory doesn't have many existing outtakes and the estate doesn't want to take a risk emptying the vaults of them so soon. But Hot Fun in the Summertime was recorded in the mid-1980s.

Wow Michael looks so beautiful in that LNFSG video picture :wub:

Does anyone have it?
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Thanks for answering me. In the meantime I contacted a friend of mine who knows a guy whose uncle works for SAMSUNG. They told him that the album will be released 13th of May, just like you said it in your answers to me. Isn't that cool? :)

I also overheard that there might be more than seven songs (but less than nine) on the album.

The name of my friend's friend's uncle's name's Otto Eightovitch. He confirmed (it was around 8.00 o'clock) that there would be 8 songs on the album.

I always thought that april fools day is 04/01 and not 04/04


Edit:

You've changed the uncles work from SONY to SAMSUNG. Seriously you've missed april foolsday since 3(three) days

I don't disagree with you, nevertheless that doesn't mean that you agree with me.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

We'll se about that.

Will we now? *squints eyes menacingly* :beee:

Haha, really though, in any sense that's just what I've been told. Michael recorded it after he bought the Sony/ATV catalog, which would put it around 1985 or 1986.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

When you were rating AlwaysThere about the album consisted of 6 leaked tracks, no one was censoring your opinion, some people just pointed out the hypocrisy and childishness on those. When many of us stated we were willing to support the album even though many have already heard the tracks. What you were trying to do by telling us not to talk about the cover because is annoying to you is censorship, I'm sorry.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

speaking of publishing cataogues, so far there aren't any newer entries on US copyright office / BMI / SonyAtv that could hint Xscape's mistery song
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

According to my uncle's friend who works in the music industry in the New York subway, the mystery song's most likely "Let Me Let Go".
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

That's a Jason Malachi song..
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

That's not true! Only the vocals, the lyrics, the arrangements, the production and the music on that song are Jason Malachi's. Nothing else.

I don't think so. From what I understand, HIStory will be adequately represented during 2015.

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

But if you spell Jason Malachi backwards, what do you get? That's right: Ichalam Nosaj.

Coincidence?

I disagree. Many sources confirmed that there is no "Cascio tracks" on the album.

Couldn't you decide ...uh, sorry I mean couldn't you remember at first where the uncle works?


isn't it a miracle ... nah, coincidence? at first it's the friends uncle and then the uncles friend

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

The mystery song could be I've Got Her Number (Written and recorded in 1985) :D

?
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

If there's an extra song maybe it's Ekam Setyam (a duet with A.R. Rahman) or GYWOOM.

Yes, one works for SONY, and in the parallel reality to this one the same guy works for SAMSUNG.

Nope, not a miracle, it's a different person, nothing to do with my firend's friend's uncle.
