Re: KOP Italian edition - out in October!

thanks for the news
 
Re: KOP Italian edition - out in October!

SonyBMG Italy gave the chance to top 3 italian fanclubs to point out "special" songs to be added to the top 30 voted from the general public as a sort of "special mention tracks".

Among the songs fanclubs can vote there are:
Carousel (short/cut version, NOW COMPLETE) 3:40
Got The Hots


Imagine what? No one is voting for Carousel FULL Version. :doh:
 
Re: KOP Italian edition - out in October!

This Italian album could be unique with the Carousel full on it. No others KOP have it so far.....
 
Re: KOP Italian edition - out in October!

Top voted tracks from italian fanclubs' members:
We've Had Enough
Whatever Happens



I must say I'm totally disappointed. But that's just my opinion though. :doh:

??? !!!!!
well, disappointing, but at the same time I wondered how Sony Italy could clear Carousel full version...

I agree. However it's better than nothing to have it officially released on cd, isn't it?
Once fans have the chance to suggest Sony Got The Hots and Carousel (full), they prefer to vote for tracks already released. It seems their illegal mp3s are just enough for them.
 
Re: KOP Italian edition - out in October!

Thanks so much for this. I really hope that Carousel gets on the compilation!

Oh Thanks SunsetDriver!
I just wrote it again :doh:

_________________________________________

Dear MJFans,
the MJFanSquare (www.mjj.it) team has just received official communication from Sony Italy that the Italian version of the "King Of POP GH" will contain an unreleased song together with other tracks choosen by fans in the MJFanSquare and Michaelmania.com forums.

The songs are:
Carousel (COMPLETE VERSION 3:40)
Got The Hots
We've Had Enough
Whatever Happens

"King of Pop" will feature 30 hits divided into 2 CDs in a Digipack cover and will be released on October 3rd 2008.

You can check the poll we made clicking THIS LINK - as you can see both FanSquare and Michaelmania users choose We've Had Enough as their first choice, so together with Sony we decided to put our second choice on the CD: "Whatever Happens".

Carousel was then added to the tracklist thanks to the loads of fan requests that were made. We asked Sony and they agreed. That's great!

SonyBMG Italy requested info about KOP Italian edition to be taken off from opendisc website.
 
Re: KOP Italian edition - out in October (Carousel FULL version included)!

I hope this is not the final tracklist! I mean, from 30 songs we got 15?!? We had to have a double CD and we got one?
And there is no Carousel, no Got The Hots....
And it says that it will be released on October 10th, when it was said that it was going out one week before...
Let's hope this is a mistake...
 
Re: KOP Italian edition - out in October (Carousel FULL version included)!

May I ask to german fans who bought KOP if the 1st cd is an opendisc? :scratch:

I know that CD 1 of the GERMAN EDITION is an opendisc, yes ;)

Great cover!:punk:

to this tracklist are the "bonus" tracks not added? I mean Got the Hots and Carousel?
or opendisc is diff then the normal one? *confused*
 
Re: KOP Italian edition - out in October (Carousel FULL version included)!

I'm confused as well :scratch:
Also other 2-CDs albums are listed as 1-CD (German and Dutch versions)

http://www.opendisc.net/artist/arti...fb07e152d93a36c5fbe13fc2f1fb36437df3cc&key=18

ah i see...then this traclist is probably just the half of it?

for example the correct tracklist for the Dutch edition is this, not the one on the opendisc site
