i think this will be first version, then a few months later we will get a deluxe version with say 4 other songs, and 1 of them will be a new single
 
After listening to it twice and thinking through it comparing it with recent MJ stuffs and acapellas from Invincible, Keep your head up, this version on youtube is not Michael jackson. I don't hear his voice hear, I mean this sounds like a very very good impersonator and he sounds to off beat and unprofessional to be Michael. I'm not all too sure and the thing is.... this doubt I have shouldn't be here and this talks to me and tells me that MJ is not the mind behind this "song" on youtube. We can only wait for the album to come out... but as for BN, it's not 100% MJ but he is obviously on the track, but honestly, I like that track. As for Sony and this whole project, They're stupid for putting certain of these trax on the album because if they have certain songs like Place with no name or 12 o clock, then put REAL MJ SONGS ON IT! not anything questionable. They should just give us raw 10 second clips of him singing in the shower.... just kidding, lol. But yeah, they may be lying about having over 100 previously unreleased trax. Streetwalker speaks for itself, and so does Xscape in showing these are real MJ.

"In regards to the statement, I tried calling Howard's cell but couldn't reach him. (I wanted to hear from him directly). After calling his office, somebody confirmed that the statement did come from Howard. As I said before, there are many inaccuracies and omissions in that statement. For one, I was also in that meeting and that was not the outcome. Saying that, I don't want to go into further details and take away from the attention "Hold My Hand" truly deserves. You will hear my story because this is way too important for my Uncle's legacy. The truth will prevail."

"Out of the 10 songs listed only 7 of them are Michael Jackson. Someone just asked me," is 'Keep Your Head Up' real or are we being lied to again? Sorry, but you won't like my answer…. Let's enjoy Hold My Hand."

Mr. Weitzman already confirmed to Michaelmania that his statement is genuine.

I guess we'll never know what is the truth in this matter.
If Tyrall was at the meeting and if what he's saying is true, then why would they put a statement like this. Someone, I would guess many, are working hard for us all not to findout something, the question is what...
 
Has there been anything from 3T , Cory Rooney etc at all today? A statement..anything? I mean, surely Cory has his opinion about Keep your head up?

Respect77....

I saw your message about how Keep your head up restores your faith in the album. But i gotta ask why? I mean, there were gonna be a few 'new' MJ songs on this album anyway, next to the 'fake ' ones, and no doubt they were gonna be good. But as awesome as Keep your head up sounds, it should not change your overall view on the album. Well...if it does, ok...but i wouldn't understand that.

Personally..no matter how good the other unreleased tracks on the cd are, Sony won't be receiving my money. That's one thing that is for sure. All this controversy , all this uncertainty...nah, i'm done with it.


Hi. Last night I was so sure about KYHU being MJ, but listening to it once again this morning, I went back to "not sure". There's too much copy & past in this song as well, that's for sure! And right now I agree with Will.I.Am the most. Maybe they should leave every dead artist alone and not released anything they didn't release when they were living. There's a reason for why he didn't release those. And he certainly would have never done such cheap copy & paste songs!

This whole thing sucks so much. I want the one and only TRUTH!
 
Well, if Tyrall and his bros. don't take it to court and just leave it on twitter nothing will ever be solved! Then, all I will have is my ears at the end, and I'll just trust that!

The album will not supported by all the fans, some will and some not.
If the Jackson family cannot do anything, then what do we have left to do.
I'm a 36 years old fan that for the first time in many years will not have a MJ album.

As you say, lets enjoy the real MJ!!!
 
I think some of the tracks we can hear around internet are some kind of work in progress, don't pay too much attention to them ... i think Sony desperately wanted Michael to be N.1 around the world by Christmas also if the job wasn't already completely done. Their job is genuine too.... they're preparing a lot to have the best record Michael deserve. Now it's the fans-time to make it happen. And I know for sure, inside MICHAEL there will be songs we'll play forever as Michael's best songs.

Ele74
 
Can we enjoy the seven tracks at least we all agree on & stop the arguing that is STILL going for almost a week? It's really disheartening what is going on.Like I said I have an open mind about the Cascio tracks to think it's not 100% Michael.Until there is more proof either way, that's why I'll be buying & listening to the whole album.
 
Thanks Ele.

I will do ALL I CAN - to promote the album.

:yes:

Everyone will do. 'Cause here, we're near the excellence with this record. It will be a record we'll call by name for the very first time: "MICHAEL". "Our" Michael. It will be the most precious gift this Christmas. I can understand the mixed emotions we have as fans around the world. But now it's Michael-time.
We don't need to forget this. Not ours, not The Estate, not Sony.... it's Michael's time. For him.

Michael Jackson Song -- Akon Came Back to Finish

It's Harvey ... I've just heard Michael Jackson's first single, "Hold My Hand" -- not the one that leaked a few years ago, but the one Sony is about to release. First of all, it's great -- slower than a lot of MJ's songs.

Our sources say Akon recently came back to the studio to lay down more vocals and really put the finishing touches on it. It sounds more produced than the "Breaking News" song that was put online this week.

It's a classic, Akon-type song and it seems like Michael takes on Akon's style. His voice fluctuates like Akon's and there's a similar tonal quality.

As for "Breaking News," I just heard the finished version. It's more produced than the one Sony put online and sounds more classic MJ.

This is going to be a huge album.

Interesting...Thanks ;)
 
If this flops =AGAIN FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT UNDERSTAND SONY WILL NOT BE HURT, BUT MICHAEL WILL. If sales are diminished like Ele said, the media will pound on it. The media has never been kind to Michael or don't you know that. Is that what you want? Go ahead ruin Michael.

I can't more agree with it.It is all good if the sales are low for the haters and media but not all for Michael Jackson.And yes Sony will no be hurt.

I agree, there's still at least the 7 songs that are Michael, so let's be happy we get them, right? :)

Though I'm not completely happy with Sony for putting these controversial songs on the album (when they could have put for example DYKWYCA or APWNN - that we know are 100% Michael) I still can't wait to have it on my hands and listen to Michael's voice again.

And where did you all hear Keep Your Head Up, is it on youtube?
 
at least 7 MJ songs? have people heard Keep your head up?

That is exactly what I was saying too. Thank you. But unfortunately, unbelievably there are fans still questioning if that is really MJ! I'll just never understand.

I like this, don't worry i don't believe the few fans on here who are still doubting will affect the over all sales of this album, in fact most will come around and buy it anyway, i believe it's going to be huge.

I also think if it was the media saying it wasn't Michael then the same fans would be going crazy with the media saying they are trying to ruin Michael's legacy.


Thank you. Your response made me feel a lot better, although I'm here crying thinking how we got to this. You are so right, I also think in the end most of those fans will come around and buy the album anyway. And this album is going to be huge, I feel it down deep in my soul like Michael would say. Even the media is loving it.

But you know I never thought about the fact that if the media would be the ones saying they were fake those same fans would be crying out loud saying it isn't so! Funny. Good point. Thanks!:better:
 
keep your head up is NOT questionable for me. Have you heard it?
I hadn't heard it when I wrote those posts, they were based on what I read here. :) (and btw it's now removed from youtube)

Obviously some fans think it's questionable and the Earth Song sample.. but yeah, so we have at least the 8 songs.
