Someone like you, needs to be banned!

Why should I be banned? i haven't insulted anyone i have put across an opinion that i have thats all. I have done it in a reasonable way.

Should i be banned for not having the same opinion as you? would be a boring place if everyone agreed on everything.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Gaz ... are you able to express the concern that we share with the Jacksons that (the Jacksons know their own blood and Michaels voice and so do most fans) that these Cascio tracks are fake. These appear to be the only tracks the Jackson and Michaels own children are disputing and based on Breaking News they are 100% justified in their concern.

There is no reason to include tracks that are so dubious when scores of other exist.

I agree. It would be best if they took off the Cascio tracks of this album. These are the only controversial ones, as far as I understand it.

What the!? Really are you serious that just because someone has a differing opinion to you they should be banned!?

You know what rather than the issue of the track being fake or not, I'm MORE pissed off with the attitudes some 'fans' are taking towards others right now.

Fake track or not, fans calling for other fans to be banned for having a different opinion is just pathetic.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

This is so terrible! :cry:

This should be such a happy day, and now most people are left with nothing but confusion, anger and sadness...

The song sounds so weird, it doesn't sound Michaelicious to me at all, but I can't understand and/or believe how they could do this to us. How could they???

Michael would have needed a strong woman by his side, who could now take care of his legacy..
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

anyone else worried the One More Chance video that has magically been complete after Michaels death will feature a impersonator?
No, that has been finished for years. it was shelved because of the allegations/trial. I think Michael should have released it on the ultimate collection or maybe after it could have been a tv special leading up to the release.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Apparently Frank Cascio wrote this on FB:

No, Sadly to say its Not Sony... Breakng New's is Great. IT Is 100% Michael Voice., He recorded it in my home. Please the fans should be enjoying this special moment. it is special and there are people out there trying to take that away from you and the world... "Jealousy" Please embrace this song as Michael was very proud of it...

he did..

Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

maybe out of all the songs on the new album this is the most debateable song regarding his vocals so they are getting it out the way a month before the album is complete. When the album does come out we won't be talking about the BN song anymore but all the other great vocals (i hope).
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

There is only ONE part I hear that sounds exactly like Michael and could well be... is the Hee Hee at 4:00 and 4:01 < Just the note on that 4:01 is so like him.


Other than that... :brow:
 
Re: Do You Believe Breaking News is an authentic MJ track

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

No, I don't believe it is Michael Jackson's vocals.

I think Sony came up with songs that obviously were not finished, and then hired someone to "add" vocals...

This makes me think the One More Chance video is going to be lots of "back shots" of an impersonator dancing instead of Michael. I always wondered how they were going to show a video of an unfinished video?! *confused*

Anyway.. can't believe that this is how the fans are being rewarded.... waiting so long for NEW Michael music.

This simply isn't him.
 
Re: Do You Believe Breaking News is an authentic MJ track

Voted No! If THAT'S Michael then who the heck have I been listening to for 18 years?
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I will be speaking with both the Estate and Sony a bit later today on the effects this song is having, I will of course want answers and reasons perhaps even evidence to support their findings that this is indeed Michael.

At this point all I ask is people to be calm, yes I fully understand emotions are running high and we will of course take that into consideration.

Lets see what they have to say later.

Whatever you do, don't let them intimidate you. We are fighting for the justice and legacy of our deceased idol. He cannot fight, but we can. We are his army.

It's very clear that the MAJORITY (if not ALL) of that song is NOT Michael Jackson and I hope you won't let them tell you otherwise.

Make sure you're wearing wool-compatible Xray vision goggles when you talk to them, coz they may very well try pulling a nice little "yes sir yes sir 3 bags full" right over your eyes!

Be strong like Michael.

Go Gaz, and thanks for the update :)
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I've been a MJ fan for over 23 years. I've been listening to Michael practically every day! So as many seasoned fans here, I think we can judge if it's Michael's voice or not.

HOWEVER, before judging if it's Michael or not I would be really, really careful, because if there is one thing I've learnt throughout all these years about Michael's music, is that Michael was always full of surprises and always tried to be different from what he had done before.

Many theories are possible, and among one of them is that Michael could have followed the tendency of changing voice pitches in order not to sound as he usually sounds in his previous songs.

Now put songs such as:

"One day in your life" and "Privacy" can you really, really, objectively tell it's the same person singing it?

Let's give ourselves, and SONY the time and listen over and over again. Only then we will see if it's Michael or not.

When I first heard "2000 Watts" I thought Michael was singing a duet with another singer and was expecting to hear Michael in the song. Only after the song was finished I realized that it was Michael all along, different from what he had done before, but still it was him.

"Breaking News" could be also different from the rest, special, Michaelish but unMichael, yet maybe it was intended by Michael!

Don't you find it suspicious though that the Cascios cannot backup the authency of these tapes with anything? They say Michael ordered them to destroy the demos and other mixes. The hard drives of their computers are "destroyed". All VERY suspicious claims. We know that Michael didn't destroy anything he worked on. And isn't it a bit convenient for the Cascios that their hard drives which could be a proof are destroyed? Something is fishy here, no doubt.
 
Re: Do You Believe Breaking News is an authentic MJ track

I just listened to the song and I honestly do not know what to think. :( When I first heard "Michael" singing it did sound a bit...off to me. Do you guys really think that they would do this though? They would dupe the world into buying a Michael Jackson album that aren't even of his vocals or music? I wouldn't like to believe so but you never know. That's really sad and disappointing.
In my opinion, the only part that sounded like Michael was the "hee hee's" and the very end. Many of you have been fans for 20+, 30+, etc. years and can recognize Michael's voice anywhere, so I would put trust in you guys.

If he'd had a strong woman he's still be here and none of this shit would be happening. Fricking MJ impersonators on his albums. It's disgusting! :(

and most idiots that i see here today will believe is him
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I think too many people are letting their hatred for Sony overcome them - and it's always the same, rude, people trying to impose their agendas on everyone else.

If anybody is trying to suggest than 'Breaking News' doesn't contain ANY of Michael's vocals - then i really don't know what to say to them, as they are beyond reason.

How much of this song is Michael's vocals might be up for discussion, but he is on this track - and that is good enough for me.

I respect (some of you might want to look up that word) Teddy Riley, who worked with MJ for many years, and if he says Michael's vision and work are upheld on this track, then that is alos enough for me.

The trouble with this forum, as well as other MJ forums, is that there is too much hate these days. Unfortunately, it seems, the ones with 'hate' in their agenda are the loudest and most prolific with their posts.

I think the years of media hatred has finally taken over some of the, so-called, 'fans'. Michael was all about 'L.O.V.E' but, unfortunately, this message has now become lost with quite a few since he sadly passed away.

If you're looking down Michael, I, for one, am truly sorry for this.


This!


I totally agree with you!
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Well I for one have been jammin to this song ALL morning, I think its him, I mean we already know the kind of "MAJIC" producers can make in the studio with absolutley terrible singers, so I'm chaking the slightly different sounding MJ on this track, to many factors, one being his age, (and the fact that all of our voices change as we get older), and producers, (who obviously added a few things to the track to make it more "proper"). I like it.

:singing: "why is strange that I would fall in love...."

No, you have to understand, that we have some fans, who listen daily (since 20 - 30 years) to his music.

They know every acapella, every single shout & breathe.

They don'T need to believe sony, cascio, producers... Ears are telling the truth!

If you still think its MJ, than its fine. But think twice... Why would all these people, would say its fake?
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I have heard the song and it's definitely Michael Jackson.

If you don't want to belive that's it's upto you, but remmeber that if it was someone else, they could sue Sony for roayalties since they sang it and it was attributed to someone else who was then paid royalties.

If everyone and the dog can sue MJ, don't think an impersonator would miss out on millions in royalties.

So, let's lay this matter to rest, except for those who have their reasons.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Do you know where you children are?

A: Hopefully not listening to that stuff!
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I trust my ears & TJ & Taryll & Katherine & kids judgement about this song... Teddy Rilley is terribe broke ass, liar, just read his answers:
http://twitter.com/teddyriley1


there's no indication that that is a verified account...(never mind the follow up statement i could say about the account, or.the guy in the account..or whatever acount...)

but i'm not disagreeing with ur sentiment.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I want to cry.

I mean this. I am sad that fans cannot hear the difference between an amateur and the greatest artist that ever lived. I am sad that Sony would resort to releasing a fake song out of all the hundreds of amazing diamonds Michael left them with. I am sad that fans have to -once again- endure confusion, pain and embarrassment. I am sad, that after all these years of being an active and proud Michael Jackson fan, today will be the day I say goodbye. I am done with it all.

Sony, you win. I'm gone.

Yep, that one second was definitely him... so I reckon that's fine to go on the album right? :no:
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Michael has been involved in the creation of this song, for sure, it has the MJJ feel to it in places. However, the singer singing 'Breaking News' on this version is definitely not him. The timbre is not his, some word phrasings aren't his, such as for "Michael Jackson", the falsetto resembles that of Darren Hayes, the crispiness of Michael's voice is also not there, and his 'aooww' onomatopoeia sounds like being Michael's from another song and they just attached it to this song. The 'hee-hee-hee' one also doesn't sound like his. The 'obituary' part is at most suspicious. The voice also lacks Michael's funky modulations and that slight 'buzzy' or fuzzy texture to it, his specific grunts, instead, that singer resorts to truly forced, unconvincing ones and the voice, overall, is weak, doesn't tickle or excite the ear the way Michael's does.. The atmosphere of the song, apart from the intro, doesn't cause excitement, that specific Michael excitement that makes the heart skip a beat or two. That's not him, but a very good impersonator. ... And the song, in my view, also speaks for itself as to why Michael didn't release it. It has a Malachi feel to it more than a Michael feel.

...

Sick what these companies do to play with fans hungry for new music.

do u guys believe Michael would be satisfied with the song? in case he did not finish it.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

The song sounds like a parody of an mj song!..the worst song so fare!!!
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Members of the Jackson family? We're supposed to take their 'word' on things!?

Should I post links to some of the things members of the Jackson family have said about Michael over the years!?

i'm still laughing at the fact that some of them said Michael was not going to be in the 'This is it' movie' - and some fans believed them! - and that sh** soon died down when people saw how pathetic that statement was.

If we had all the 'not MJ' bull before Invincible was released, I am guessing the same people on here would have been crowing;

"2000 Watts is not MJ!! I have been listening to Mj since I was in the womb, and I tell you I KNOW it's not him!"

People on here KNOW very little, but ASSUME very much.

The sensible ones on here know that ASSUME makes an ASS out of U and ME!

Forget what MJ's family say. They have proved that they are not reliable when it comes to truth - even Michael knew that, which is why he had less and less to do with them over the years. They're a liability I'm afraid.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

will people here stop saying that those who do not believe this is Michael are not worthy of him? l.o.v.e. and stuff like that, come on people, give us a break. just for the huge love for Michael we are not letting them deceive us!

I have to say sth that many of the ppl here won't like it, but it's my two cents - Michael did live for LOVE, but he was also a VERY naive person at times. Some of the fans here resemble him for this.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Lay off Teddy Riley...

Before the release of the song the same people were bashing Michael's own FAMILY for speaking out against the track before we heard it.

Now we're digging up Teddy's personal financial history at a desperate attempt to answer our questions.

From Teddy:
@AngelaDF Pls wait for the truth...this is what Michael would encourage us all to do. It's beyond us all. Pls wait...no more comments 4 now.


Something very strange is happening, just let it all unfold. The only people i'm very wary of at the Cascio's.
