I strongly feel I owe the community an apology. When I first listened to "Chicago" I was using a PC at work. Either the audio card or the headphones messed with the sound in a way that Michael's low voice sounded totally stripped from its low frequencies/chroma. I know that now when I heard the difference from my equipment to the pc from work, testing on "Chicago" and "Loving you". I am sorry and I feel a little embarrassed because I' ve been Michael's fan since a little kid.

I guess my nerves are on the edge, since the traumatic experience from "Michael".

Anyway I am so sorry, keep Michaeling and bring this album to Nr.1

Don't worry about it. As fans, after what they did with 'Michael', it's only natural to be suspicious. However, so far I am absolutely delighted with this project. They are doing Michael a lot of justice!

LNFSG. Hold My Hand was more of an Akon song than an MJ song

Just having a look through some Japanese websites here, it's confirmed now that the Japanese pressing has the same tracklisting, yes?

This documentary will be wonderful. Too bad it's just 20 minutes long. On DVD they should put at least 1 hour.

Is it confirmed that itunes duration is the same one for DVD?

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

hi guys, is there another place where the song is posted? for some reason it wont play for me. Is it on youtube yet, or facebook again? thankyou to anyone who can help me.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Both new songs are awesome. Chicago should have been the first single. IMO

If Xscape is not the best album of the year something is seriously wrong with the world. So far the tracks are above what I expected. This Michael Jackson dude is incredible.

Seems like a wasted opportunity. - Why even add a DVD if you only put 25 minutes on it?? - And why in Black & White?? Makes no sense.

BUT then again I never really watch the extra DVD anyway, so I don't really care. - But I had hoped for 1 music video and 1 documentary on at least 1 hour... - But it's the songs I want anyway. :)

Guys... Don't want to sound annoying but it suddenly hit me how different this all would be if Michael could promote his own album. I never got to be part of a Michael Jackson album promotion. What was it like? Did he appear in public often? Did he perform at awards shows and stuff?
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

:girl_whistle: Gotta stay strong, gotta stay strong.... also holding off until Friday!. :) I love reading everyone's comments, though! It's like sweet torture, lol. When the album arrives I'm going to listen to the originals first, let them sink in, then move on to the new versions. And in full CD quality. I totally understand those who don't want to wait, though (as I didn't for Bad25 demos, or in 2010, or for Invincible, lol). Occasionally the thought "if I die today, I'm gonna regret not having listened yet" has crossed my mind. ;)


The self-imposed suffering, while not exactly the same now, is like a mini flashback to the good old days... having one single and going crazy with anticipation waiting for the glorious day that 'Bad', 'Dangerous' or "HIStory' would be in your sweaty, grasping palm as you plunk it down at the cash register and proudly make it yours.:dancin: Then came the agonizing drive home from the record store feeling all {{{:woohoo:}}} inside!!!!! Once home, rushing to your room, almost shaking with joy! Sitting there in front of the stereo, best headphones you could find, opening that CD case, examining the contents, opening the booklet like some sacred text, all with this MASSIVE smile on your face, savoring the moment, putting the disc in and .... pressing...... play. :wub: And then you hear him, on something you've never heard before... :cry: :wild: :chillin:.... this is what he'd been working on during that quiet time when you missed him being everywhere, this is what HE wanted YOU to hear... THIS... And you drift away in ecstasy... :swoon: .... and then you spend the next week month year forever saying "Thank you, Michael, thank you.... " :bow: :heart: Yes, there's something to be said for anticipation and fangirling. Even if it's not quite the same situation anymore. :boohoo:

My God, where do you start with questions like that?

From the publicity stunts (giant statue down the Thames for HIStory (!)), to legendary live performances (Motown 25 for Thriller, Grammy's 88 for Bad, MTV 25 for Dangerous, VMAs for HIStory) to the specials (Oprah Winfrey for Dangerous, Diane Sawyer for HIStory, 30th Anniversary for Invincible).

And then of course you get the Short Films, simultaneously premiered throughout the world...Black or White, Scream, Thriller, Bad.

Plus the controversy....Black or White video, TDCAU lyrics, Earth Song performance.

Plus the associated projects..Moonwalker, Moonwalk, Captain Eo, Dancing The Dream, Blood On The Dancefloor, Thriller Home Video.

And I seem to recall a world record breaking tour or three (where I was lucky enough to be at them all) - Bad, Dangerous, HIStory.

Yeah...he was pretty good at promotion.... :)
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I kinda feel guilty/bad for listen to the songs already, before the official release... :(

Yes - plus opening night tickets to This Is It :(

Bad & Dangerous in particular were life changing moments. That's why I was so pumped for Bad 25. Amazing to see the whole show again.

"Justin Timberlake made the long-distance call from Denmark to On Air with Ryan Seacrest on Tuesday to talk about his brand new song with Michael Jackson and Xscape... and he dropped a serious music history bombshell on us."

I don't know where was the hint but I missed it:-(

Matt was interviewed in BAD 25 documentary and like in Bad 25, he welled up when he talked about working with Mike:cry:

My wife & me got married with "Hold My Hand" (OG 2008 demo leak) playing.
We both love this song to death. How i craved for new MJ music since the trial was over & then 3 years later i heard him for the first time on anew song & he still got it like THE BOMB. I'll never forget that time- I was so happy & was so excited about what was still to come.. & then...

We married on 04th of July 2009... After crying & mourning for 2 weeks i wasn't really in a psychological state 2 get married & be all happy... What kind of weird times these were.
We even had a picture of MJ on our church-song-sheet... And i did a little tribute BJ performance later at night...

The whole documentary screams you'll see him do what he does best (1st the titles : The producers, The collaborators,... second : the shot when you see Matt from the Booth and third : on MICHAEL people asked for proff that it was michael by showing him since we all know he filmed all his sessions so it's logical to reassure the mass to do so NOW)
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

What? There was no hint. It's just Matt Forger talking about his experience with Michael.

Don't expect studio footage; if it doesn't happen, you'll all be disappointed.
