Xscape General Discussion

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

Neither of those are classic love ballads where the singer is confessing his love to a woman.

Hold My Hand was mentioned too...

Bumper... Don't listen to the negativ jerks. This is a fun time! Get back in this thread!

Do you guys think it is a remix of the album track or completely different version produced solely by Tim?
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Hopefully that somehow will cheer up the John McClain critics.

I think it is a remix of the album track. I think Timbaland produced the remix of the album track (produced by McClain & Tuinfort). I doubt Timbo went back to the Demo to create his own version.

Something that stuck out to me a bit was

3. Loving You

11. You (Original Version)

Why did they name it like that, was it because "You" was the working title? In that case then the Original Chicago should be titled "She Was Loving Me", or?... eh i'm nitpicking

Maybe just a mistake.

I like how the server has been acting up so much ever since this piece of news came up, the rise of members logging in and guests browsing. :rollin:

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

Lots of MJ fans sure do love Justin Timberlake. I've always found him to be overrated.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Who knows a good working stream for the premiere??? Definitely don't want to miss it.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

There is no multitracks. L.A. Reid himself said it. Just the leaked demo.

If there's no multitracks, it could've been filled with the instruments. The point is we don't know if we're gonna have officially released the leaked demo. Neither we know how the vocals of the contemporized version were left.

Knock yourself out then JT fans. It's disrespectful to premier a mix for the sake of selling more records when it should be only Michael's moment to shine on his own.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

We really want a working stream for the awards show as we don't live in the U.S.A.
Please, if someone can help out!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I adore Love Never Felt So Good. Started listening to it more and more since it was announced a while back. Tonight (tomorrow for me) will be INSANE! Original demo + JT remix on iTunes too at midnight in US apparently. the KING is BACK!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

So is there a stream of the awards show as it happens, REALLY LIVE? And when (in how many hours) will the show start?
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

less then four hours to go!!!!!!!

Almost every premiere single off MJ's album was a duet like Thriller's The Girl is Mine, Bad's IJSLY, HIStory's Scream and technically Black or White with the rap so why hate on this one? It's not like JT's doing it for his sake, remember he did a duet live with the Jacksons in 2001? It wont be that bad to release the remix with JT, Im pretty sure he was recommended and chosen to do it

The Girl Is Mine was released from Thriller as the first single for commercial reasons - to get white radios play Thriller. So it's not like a similar trick wasn't done in MJ's lifetime. It's a bit similar situation IMO: back then you had to catch the attention of a white audience, now you have to catch the attention of a young generation.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Looking through posts, am I the only positive one around?! Come on guys, we've got 8 days until it's released at it's earliest, we'll probably get 16 incredible tracks and the outtake videos etc which could have STUDIO FOOTAGE (come on!!!). This really could be the "Best We Never Heard". Positivity never hurt anyone. If you don't like a remix, it's nothing big. It's the last track on the deluxe version of the album, nothing special. Just buy the standard version and have the new versions only if you're so against Timberlake. It's following MJ's pattern of duets for opening singles and they've also followed MJ by having a big premiere that a lot of people are excited for. Let's get ready to Xscape and enjoy the great new music we are about to hear! :)

Michael's not gonna shine on his own. Face it. If it was just him, this single probably would be a commercial flop.

For sure not, but some are only focussing on the negative post, which are really in minority.

We are gonna have officially released the leaked demo (obviously in much better quality) because that demo is the only version that exists.

It's not disrespectful at all. It is very respectful. Because it is an unfinished song. Of course that they could have picked another song, but this is the best for the song they chose.
