Re: Countdown for Don't Be Messin' 'Round !!
Actually i hope it doesnt get leaked cuz it will take the surprise away. I remember when i was little and buying singles with b sides and how fun it was to hear a new song on the b side that was never heard before and listening to it 100 times after that lol

Re: IJCSLY re-issue with "Don't Be Messin' Around" bonus track
So is Dont Be Messin Around not going to be on any vinyl release, even outside the US? Making it CD only? Im picking up the CD Single regardless but really love the sound quality of vinyl. However, it looks like the vinyl just has the original B-side (baby be mine). Are those maxi-vinyl singles no longer available?

IJCSLY Spoken Intro
Hi all, last week I bought another copy of Bad from a high street store called That's Entertainment, anyway they had a special on CD's and I got 4 MJ CD's (a couple J5). I have just listened to IJCSLY and it is the spoken intro, this CD is a second hand one as I am going to be getting Bad25.
It is so nice to be able to hear those spoken words after so long of not being able to hear them.

I know its nothing new, I have heard it before when it first came out on tape. But I havent heard it on a CD before and its unusual to find it in a shop these days.

I only speak for myself, when I know a release is only days away, it's almost like torture. I can deal with releases that are months away though.

Re: Countdown for Don't Be Messin' 'Round !!
Really? I'm the other way around. I know that after 2 more days of my normal daily routine I will be able to listen to DBMR. It kills me however when I think of how far away Bad 25 is!

In spite of that fact I can't wait and totally exited I'm glad that song is not leaked still. Remember that story with This is it song when they leaked a snippet right before release it was pretty disappointing. So I try to be patient and wait for TWO DAYS :wild:

[h=1]Michael Jackson is “Bad”.. Don’t Be Messin’ is “Cool”[/h]by Damien Shields Posted on May 30, 2012
<!-- .entry-meta -->
As music lovers around the world look forward in anticipation to the 25th anniversary of the release of Michael Jackson’s multi-million selling BAD album, marked by the late singer’s estate and record label with the September 18 release of an impressive box set (including 3 CDs and a concert tour DVD), the more astute of the Jackson fans have diverted their attention to a less publicised event.
On June 5th, 2012 Sony Music, in an exclusive deal with Wal-Mart (in the US), will make available a commemorative re-issue of the lead single of BAD, Jackson’s 1987 single “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You”. The song, which was the first of a historic five consecutive chart-topping singles from the BAD album, is a gorgeous duet featuring Jackson’s collaborative partner Siedah Garrett. The track will remain unedited, in it’s original form, as it appeared on the single release 25 years ago.
What makes this release so exciting for Jackson fans is that the single also contains a previously unreleased track – a demo entitled “Don’t Be Messin’ Round” – which, according to Sony Music, originates from the BAD album sessions.
Fans have known of the track’s existence for quite some time however its actual origins remain under question. In a 2008 interview Jackson’s then-lawyer Peter Lopez let slip of the recording’s possible inclusion on the 25th anniversary re-release of the Thriller album. It was reported at the time that the track was an outtake from the Thriller sessions. Either way, the creative direction of that particular release (which would become Thriller 25) changed, and the song was never made public.
Following his passing, one of Jackson’s longest-serving producers Brad Buxer registered a song, titled Don’t Be Messin’, with the US Copyright Office. Buxer and Jackson first began working together on the Dangerous album sessions in 1989, and continued a professional relationship through 2006. Buxer’s possession of the recording and subsequent registration of it would indicate that Jackson, with Buxer’s assistance, continued to work on the song long after both the Thriller and BAD albums had been completed and released..
Bruce Swedien, Jackson’s long time studio engineer and the man that recorded Jackson’s vocals spoke about “Don’t Be Messin’ Round” in a 2009 interview, in which he referred to it as a “powerful” and “mesmerizing” ballad. “Michael plays piano on it, and it’s just beautiful … Oh my God, there’s nothing like it”.
Recently I was fortunate enough to with talk to someone who is familiar with the song.
“It’s cool”, she explained. “It’s not something you’d typically expect from Michael Jackson. When you listen to songs like Smooth Criminal or Dirty Diana which come from the same era it’s understandable why Messin’ wasn’t included on Bad. It’s too different. It doesn’t fit.”
Nevertheless, I was assured that fans will thoroughly enjoy the track.
“From what I could tell”, she continued, “it hasn’t been touched up. It seems to be the way Michael left it. It sounds like something you might have heard in a classy Jazz bar back in the ’50s. That’s the mood of the song. It’s a lounge type song.”
“You can imagine Michael just sitting at the piano, in the privacy of his home, jamming for his friends and family on this one. It’s really nice.”
All speculation will be set aside in just a few short days when fans finally have the chance to hear the track for themselves.
