Posted November 8, 201014 yr I feel I may as well put this here given the Jackson Family forum's about to get archived and all, but yeah. They're releasing UNRELEASED MATERIAL from MJ (no doubt because they've realised they've probably EXHAUSTED all hope of selling any more greatest hits packages ever again), and the lead single is streaming all week HERE (no idea when it's released, but probably before December as that's when the album's out). So, thoughts? It's very Britney c. In The Zone era mixed with Motown 90s production flourishes but MINUS a chorus, and therefore NOT ACTUALLY VERY GOOD. A shame really, the LEAST they could've done was forged SOME sort of chorus out of it all, but there we go. Thoughts on chart performance? I'm beginning to think we may see a Spice Girls - Headlines-style result for it.
November 8, 201014 yr Can't listen to it at work, but one of his cousins (one of the 3T guys) is claiming on Twitter that it's not actually Michael at all :/
November 8, 201014 yr I like the chorus but as a whole the song doesn't impress me too much. But was '2000 Watts' really him either?
November 8, 201014 yr I quite love it... classic MJ... much better than anything on the "Invincible" album.
November 8, 201014 yr It's awful. :mellow: Still, not his fault, this album is doubtlessly a collection of old demos and outakes which he probably never intended to release...
November 8, 201014 yr I really, REALLY like it! :o I was expecting it to be pretty awful but I'm pleasantly surprised! Looking forward to the album a whole lot more now.
November 8, 201014 yr It's awful. :mellow: Still, not his fault, this album is doubtlessly a collection of old demos and outakes which he probably never intended to release... This. This whole business makes me wanna puke.
November 8, 201014 yr Yeah Severin, I thought that`s from Justin... I was lucky, I heard it once before as they have removed it. It`s a pity that I didn`t have time to download. :( This may be a hit, but I don`t know what the old MJ`s fans will say. If it`s not fake ... But as they removed it- this is real MJ! It's good that he didn`t go in the direction of electro beats from David Guetta. I hope I didn`t find anything like that on the album. I`m looking forward for radio debiut and "Michael"
November 8, 201014 yr Also what is this controversy about the vocals not being him? It's obviously him... it was recorded in 2007, we haven't heard his singing voice since 2005... he was a versatile singer, I am 100% assured this is Michael. Edited November 8, 201014 yr by Mason
November 8, 201014 yr I agree parts are him, the verses for sure, but I don't think the chorus is, or at least some of it was added later. It's very 2007, or frankly 1987. Not half as bad as it could of been. But I know what Aly and Bert were saying, he does seem to be worth more dead to them than alive...
November 8, 201014 yr Well people still seem to like "Piece of me", "My prerogative" and "Remember the time" so I don't see what the problem is... if you listen the song for what it's worth it's lovely... Edited November 8, 201014 yr by Mason
November 8, 201014 yr I like it :) Considering it's sat unreleased for three years, and is only seeing the light of day because he passed away last year, it was never gonna be up to the standard of his classic work. For what it is though it's great.
November 8, 201014 yr It could be him or someone else. It's hard to tell. It's not the first Jacko song that doesn't sound like him.
