Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

you'll be able to buy it in stores.

IJCSLY CD single will probably be cheaper at Walmart as they are exclusive retailer for USA. Amazon is importing it from another country.

Canadian Wal-Marts too? :scratch:

I'm so confused with where I can find everything. I checked Amazon.ca and there is nothing for pre-order I mean, no big deal, I can order from Amazon.com...but still..lol..

honestly don't know. probably they'll post it soon? I've been following Amazon all day. They have been adding the items all through out the day. they had the listings at 9 AM for example, DVD became live a few hours ago, the rest just half an hour ago.

But I can buy IJCSLY for you if you want. I'll make a stop at Walmart on June 5th.

edit: Amazon Canada has IJCSLY for pre-order

But what is the difference with the Wal Mart IJCSLY? Let's say I order from Amazon.com? What's the difference? Price?

But what is the difference with the Wal Mart IJCSLY?

If I read the statement right, it's the only version of the CD with "Don't Be Messin' Around".

Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

They are not cutting the concert - they will show it in FULL just as it is recorded on Michael's personal VHS Tape.
That has been stated in the announcement and on the product page for the DVD . Its will be intact.

Also For those asking why teh estate estate doesnt have BAD Tour footage. They didnt state anything like that.
They stated this is this is the only footage they have right now of the Royal Family performance on the 16th that
Fans requested. Not that they dont have any footage of other Wembley shows or other Bad concerts.

We are talking Live CD album. - Surely the DVD concert will be like 110 minutes or something like that! But there are only 80 minutes on a CD

1. Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'
2. This Place Hotel
3. Another Part of Me
4. I Just Can't Stop Loving You
5. She's Out of My Life
6. I Want You Back / The Love You Save / I'll Be There
7. Rock With You
8. Human Nature
9. Smooth Criminal
10. Dirty Diana
11. Thriller
12. Bad Groove
13. Workin' Day and Night
14. Beat It
15. Billie Jean
16. Bad
17. Encore:
18. Man in the Mirror

For me they might delete the red ones.... to get it fit on the CD

WHAT? - delete Human Nature. - I just fainted from chok there... - Best song live!

If I read the statement right, it's the only version of the CD with "Don't Be Messin' Around".

Think so yeah. Seems a little weird.

I hope I'll be able to get it shipped to Denmark.

Seriously?? That's kinda dumb lol So the only way I'd be able to get it then is to have someone else actually buy it for me?

@Ivy, I might take you up on that then lol

All of the CD singles - Item B0080JE49Q - has Don't Be Messin' 'Round - Demo . Both Amazon Germany and Australia lists the song on tracklist.

In USA they say that the CD will be available at Walmart only. It won't be in other stores, it won't be available digitally.

Amazon lists it as "import" meaning they are probably importing the CD from Germany. In my opinion it will only make the price higher as there's a import shipping charge(such as from Germany to USA) built into the price. Because Amazon Germany lists the price as 3.49 Euro which is around $5. Similarly Australian dollar conversion puts the price around $5. So I'm thinking Walmart and/or local/national stores will have IJCSLY CD single priced around $5. If you order from Amazon you'll be paying a higher price but I believe you'll get the same item.

Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

The POPE could have been there for all I care, I don't know about anyone else, but I think Michael Jackson would be marketable enough, no? lol

Of course he is. The majority of the people buying a Michael Jackson concert are not doing so because some royals were there. At least in the US people like Diana, but royalty is not a motivating factor in buying anything. I cannot speak for other countries. Basically, the average Joe on the street who buys Michael Jackson concerts is buying it because of the dance, singing, and the overall performance--bottom line.

Ah ok....so Wal Mart would be cheaper then, gotcha....

Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

We will soon learn that, although michael may have performed brilliantly at the Wembley, the way in by which the Bad Tour Yokohama was shot, is technically better visually. There are tons of extra cameras, several camera cranes and other equipment and lightening and special effects, especially during thriller, that we will likely not get for the Wembley show. I don't personally think Michael shot those shows for t.v. because if he did he would have had a many more cameras like when they shot the Dangerous Tour for HBO. These shows seemed to only have been shot by the camera crews who traveled with the crew specifically for the Jumbo Trons. Jumbo Tron footage is rarely released for DVDs, if they are, it's mainly as bonus footage not as a complete show. The footage they sent to the networks like MTV were jumbo torn shots, but they only have about five or so cameras. Watch how when Michael walks from one side of the stage to other,.... if the center camera follows him, panning from left to right, you know the number of cameras were very limited. But i'm hoping they at least the quality is really good even though it came from a VHS source and actually they may mean B-Max source which is much better than VHS.

Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

Yeah, it's crazy to think that he'd have an early bad tour professionally filmed (yokohama) and NOT a 2nd leg one.
It's out there...........

To the person that was talking about the film posters in the foyer of the theatre as Ola and MJ walk out in Thriller - I believe they are all genuine movies that Vincent Price starred in.

Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

Guys a little news so you can all relax

This morning I mentioned the MJ Online Team fans concerns about the DVD picture quality. Estate is aware of our concerns and apparently considering to address it over time. So can we chill for the meantime and wait for more information please?

Ivy if you have a chance can you mention the question as to whether or not Amazon's info is correct about the dvd being only 60 mins. It's really worrying me right now.

 

[kristinaz]

Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

No, they'll have to cut some out.
A lot of artists who do live CD/DVD's will omit songs from the DVD to fit on the CD.

OH NO!!! - Which songs would you prefer they cut out?

For me Heartbreak Hotel. - Maybe they cut cut down WDAN so it end the first time the music stops. But I do not hope they cut down the end of MITM...

Celine did a CD/DVD and she kept everything from her show on her CD as well as DVD

Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

[h=2]Editorial Reviews[/h] This Deluxe 25th Anniversary Edition includes three CDs, two collectible booklets, and features the first ever authorized DVD release of a concert from the record breaking BAD tour.
DVD - Michael Jackson's legendary July 16, 1988 concert at Wembley Stadium in London. This DVD is not a compilation of performances, but rather one complete show, exactly as Michael performed it for Prince Charles, Princess Diana and the 72,000 fans who were in the audience for that night's sold out show. The DVD was sourced from Michael Jackson's personal VHS copy of the performance as shown on the JumboTrons during the concert. This footage was only recently unearthed and is the only known copy of the show to exist. The visuals have been restored and the audio quality enhanced so that fans can share in the excitement of that famous night.

CD1 - The original re-mastered album.

CD2 - A CD containing previously unreleased material recorded in Michael's personal studio at Hayvenhurst. This material includes early demo versions of songs from the album as well as demos for songs not included on the final album. All of this material is being released as it was recorded during the BAD sessions. Nothing has been added or changed. In addition, this CD also includes new remixes from internationally renowned DJ/producers.

CD3 - A CD showcasing the audio from the sound truck recordings of the July 16th Wembley performance. The first-ever live Michael Jackson CD to be released, this is the only concert from the BAD Tour known to exist on multitracks.

This magnificent 3 CD/1 DVD box also includes two extensive booklets with yet unseen photos from the recording sessions, video sets and the concert tour, the original BAD cover art, a two-sided poster and more.

I hope they'll remove the Quincy Jones interviews, but keep "Streetwalker", "Fly Away" and "Todo Mi Amor Eres Tu".
