For the record, CBS' viewers are older than other network. So I think the tidbit , albeit short, was nice & straight forward.

But it was on CBS , so good exposure for THE people who did not know,

I know man, anxiously waiting for the previews ! Kinda nervous about the previews as well lol cause it's just a random part of the song you'll get to hear.

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Will those 5 tracks be put up on YouTube each day? Or will they only stream the tracks on the blog??

previews on iTunes are 1 minutes 30! which means a good portion of the song will be available for purchasers to hear! i guess holding back the tracks reduce the risk of the album leaking though, so that's positive

Might be late to the party - but where did anyone say we're getting a new track tomorrow? or is that just a rumour/guess? Thanks!

Here:

<article id="content" class="single-post" itemprop="articleBody"> In anticipation of Epic Records&#8216; May 13 release of Xscape - a posthumous compilation of previously unreleased Michael Jackson songs &#8211; Sony announced today via blog post that its music-streaming service Music Unlimited will stream one new song from the album each day from May 5 to May 9, giving subscribers a chance to preview five of the songs before the album&#8217;s official release. Sony will also be revealing exclusive artwork along the way. Today&#8217;s announcement also included details on new functionality updates to the PlayStation 4 Music Unlimited app.
Sony&#8217;s Music Unlimited service comes in two subscription packages: the $5/month &#8220;Access&#8221; and the $10/month &#8220;Premium.&#8221;
The Access plan gets you, well, access to the services library of over 18 million songs, but you&#8217;ll only be able to use the service on PlayStation 3 and 4 consoles and Internet-connected PCs and Macs&#8230; no mobile. Double up for Premium and you get a plethora of other device options: PlayStation Vita, Xperia phones, Sony tablets, Android phones and tablets, iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Bravia TVs and Sony Blu-ray players, among other Sony home theater and audio devices. And, perhaps most importantly, Premium offers an offline mode for listening to music (on selected devices) without an Internet connection. Sony also offers a free trial for those who haven&#8217;t been swayed to drop the dollars but may still be interested in giving it a try.
The new app udates announced for the PS4 Music Unlimited app include a new &#8220;PS Share button&#8221; &#8211; gamers can now share the music they&#8217;re listening to via the service across Facebook and Twitter by simply pressing the new button. Secondly, Sony introduces integrated curated playlists: the music-streaming service has an in-house team of music experts and guest artists/celebrities who handpick tunes across genres to bring users the latest music in the form of unique playlists. And last but not least, Sony has allegedly made the PS4 version of the service &#8220;faster than ever&#8221; through a few &#8220;backend updates.&#8221;
Whether you need another music service or not, big MJ fans who want to be the first ears on the unreleased tunes may find it worth signing up for a month. At least, that&#8217;s what Sony is hoping.

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

That was it... why would they even advertise that on the Facebook page...

umm..was that it!?

Nothing worth watching.

thats a joke, right?:bored:

LOOOOOOOL..it was just an ordinary cover story about LNFSG...May be they advertised it cause it meant more exposure to people who watch that show IMO !!!

geeze that was some story!

Like it or hate it, CBS Sunday Morning is the top rated show for Sunday morning, especially doing well among 25-54 year old age group. So they just told those people that a new album was coming out. Not all promotion is aimed towards fans who have already preordered the album.

Did anyone tape it? I couldn't watch.

Here:

"Giving subscribers a chance to preview five of the songs before the album&#8217;s official release."

To PREVIEW, not another single to be released..

 

[AlwaysThere]

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Victor is right. There will be a few more songs released, but they won't be singles.

The same thing happened with the Michael album: Much Too Soon was released to iTunes Ping a few days before the album's released, but it wasn't the next single; Hollywood Tonight was.

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

So will there be a official video for the remix with JT or for the solo version? I like the Solo version more but the remix is by far more popular with the public...

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

im sure all five song's will be on youtube when they are streamed to the unlimited customers, i just hope that the never heard song's will be posted!! maybe they will be releasing five singles and these are the song's that have been chosen?

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

3 singles. We've had one. Just getting 5 songs from Monday - Friday.

Tomorrow a new song?

Has that been confirmed and if so, by whom?

I haven't heard all songs, but I can say that the ones I have heard are all more than suitable to be singles and would probably also be succesful singles. There are definitely more than 3 candidates for succesful singles!

 

[Zakk]

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

It WILL be one new track per day, starting tomorrow and ending friday!


''A second posthumous Michael Jackson album will be released later this month, but fans will be able to hear five of the tracks first on Sony's Music Unlimited streaming service.

The star's new collection Xscape will be available worldwide from May 12, but fans will be able to stream a new track from the album every day from May 5 to May 9 on the platform.''

One of the fans who was on the listening party in LA. Sony executives told them.

BUT if we make the first 3 singles a success on the radio & charts, they will for sure release more. The practice is to keep releasing the singles as long as they perform well.

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I think they will move the release date to May 9 for everyone. To avoid leaks and all. Makes sense I expect this to happen.

I have been around for all the album releases. I have to say that I have the feeling this will be special. The focus is returning to the music. Although most if these songs have been out for some time, they are all seriously strong. The vocals and lyrics are superb. With Tim bringing MJs vocals to the front this is going to rock! I'm excited, my two boys have the Mj fever from the instant they heard the new song. Enjoy this, it will be a once in a lifetime if u have never experienced the madness.

This truly feels like Michael is still here, i'm loving the new versions of love never felt so good even more! i'm so excited to hear the album, it's truly divine.. i can't fault it one bit...
