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

The opening of the album completely slays, Chicago is truly a symphony.. The KING Never Left, his art is eternal. Nothing compares to the genius of entertainment. I thank you Michael, for everything you've done for us :heart:
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Maybe we will get more unreleased gems during the course of xscape ! Estate promised lots of surprises and secrets at the listening parties. I got a feeling they have a certain tour bluray on the release schedule . Love how mjjc and setae opened a channel to request what we would like and give feedback. Which I have participated in.

If they are to release a concert on blu ray then i'm fairly sure on which tour they'll use.. and unfortunately it won't be the one i dream to see in high def.. i don't think ''surprises'' meant concert releases though.

Join date doesn't mean you became a fan then. :cheeky:

I joined here in 2009, but I became a fan in 1988.

Frankly, each to their own: if it ruins your experience to listen to individual songs online before release then do not listen to them. To me it doesn't ruin the excitement and experience, so I do listen to them.

I joined here in 2011, and haven't posted much, but I've been a fan since 1987. And I moderated two forums, one of them being the only competition for this forum at one time (MJNewsOnline.)

You can't measure fans by that. I've waited for every Michael Jackson album. I supported him through the 2005 trial, and was watching and waiting when he was acquitted. I lived through the horror that was June 25th, 2009. And so on.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Chicago is perfect!! The vocals!! WOW - just WOW !!
Amazing! And a great beat! - heard 2 songs from Xscape, and it already has provided better songs than the entire Michael album did! - MTS was the Best from Michael IMO!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I am so glad about the song's we are receiving from Michael's personal archives right now, Chicago is by far the best posthumous song that has been released as of now. I'm speechless, There will never be anyone with the height of such powerful art form as Michael again.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

First impression I didn't think it sounded like MJ until the chorus. It reminded me of Ifran Makki... LOL
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

This is incredible. Two AMAZING songs in days. Think I'll collapse when the album is out!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Guys I am just giving some advice out about waiting. Take it or leave it!

@zakk I didn't mean concert as surprises! I think I know what concert you mean but Michael. Done a huge amount of filming on that, it was to be his like in bed with madonna doc! Was gonna be awesome !

Tnhe he excitement is amazing and I agree people are gonna be shocked at the quality of these songs!

That idiot Friedbrain!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.


RF has gone senile or something.


Counter reply to his article:
Playlist: 10 tracks you need to hear - Michael Jackson, J Lo, Coldplay

Michael Jackson & Justin Timberlake: 'Love Never Felt So Good' (out now)
Justin Timberlake's duet with Michael Jackson is probably one of the smoothest pairings in pop history. JT's input on the first track from MJ's posthumous album Xscape transforms the early 80's sound into 4 minutes of uncontested disco gold. "Let me see you move," JT utters, and we're sure you'll oblige.

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

Friedman is a complete and utter douchebag, honestly. Love Never Felt So Good is by no means a flop, it was a technical issue.. that does sometimes happen. Xscape is still No. 4 worldwide! hope it gets to No. 1 on Release day, and possibly No. 1 in the UK.. would be fantastic, not expecting anything though of course.. wouldn't want to jinx it ;)
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

From now on, can we put RF on ignore as his opinion doesn't matter and counts to nothing?
I'm sure he is reading fan boards and he will be delighted if he sees his name mentioned here, so lets not bother ourselves with lowly RF opinions.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

A new concern about the "original" versions... =/

Are the leaked versions of BG and APWNN the ORIGINAL versions or were they already remixed? Both of them are shorter than the leaked versions...

Blue Gangsta:
Leaked version 4:34, album "original version" 4:16

A Place With NO Name:
Leaked version 5:17, album "original version" 4:55
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I look at the join dates of some of you and then it makes sense you never really had to wait. You only got Michael later on or posthumously.

Is there going to be physical cd singles for the releases as I am sure I am not the only one that would like to own these.

Terry

They're not streaming these things for noone to listen to haha

i think they're different mixes, as Michael Prince stated... he extended the ending ad libs on the 2008 mix! so this could be the first mix that we'll be hearing
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Chicago vocals are almost identical to unbreakable / Heartbreaker. Chicago was from the Invincible sessions right?
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Nothing is better than having the physical CD with booklet and everything. I wonder how the back cover of the album and the CD-Print itself looks like :). Hoping for some physical singles. The only thing that could make physical CD better is highres sound (better than CD quality).

i agree 100% i love having the artwork
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

She Was Loving me Was recorded before MJ started working with Jerkins but yeah it's the Invincible Sessions
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Totally speculating because it's fun:

- The five songs premiering on Sony Unlimited Music will not be singles.

- All eight tracks will receive official artwork.

- The official artwork will be similar for all eight tracks, except single covers will have the song titles placed at the bottom (see Love Never Felt So Good), whereas tracks premiering on SUM will have the titling positioned at the top (see Chicago).

- I'm probably wrong in my speculation.

Just realized, if the above were actually true (which again, it likely isn't), the title track would already have its official artwork and would not be a single.
