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

C'mon! 20 mins for a whole dvd?
They could easily add 60 mins :)

It's great to see the happiness and excitement here. That is what Michael would want for us. I still miss him and wish he was here for all of this. He deserves all the praise and I can't wait to hold my cd next week.

This is fantastic, in the UK, Xscape has gone up to #12 on the Amazon chart and Love Never Felt So Good has gone up to 2 places to 23. In the UK, 23 is the highest position on the iTunes chart, it seems like it's going up every day!

Album was no 10 in music chart this morning, so it actually dropped 2 positions since.
This morning:UK Amazon
Amazon Bestsellers Rank: 10 in Music (See Top 100 in Music)
#1 in Music > R&B and Soul
#5 in Music > Pop

I wouldn't worry about dropping or raising few positions as Amazon updates their charts hourly.

The good news is that it is still holding no 2 position on US album chart
Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #2 in Music (See Top 100 in Music)
#1 in Music > R&B
#2 in Music > Pop

^
and we shouldn't forget that ALL sales from the last 4 weeks will count as first week sales!

And also LNFSG every song (file) purchased on itunes, either from the single version or from the album will count as ONE towards the carts. I expect Top 40 in the countries where it's doing good on itunes & radio.
Sadly in germany the ignition is missing until now. Maybe with the release of the album. I also expect some promo stunt here, as we are the third or fourth biggest market... Keeping my fingers crossed 4 great success.

But: As i said before. MJ don't need any more hits - HE IS THE G.O.A.T (Greatest Of All Time) already!
As long as we, his fans, enjoy this release unisono, we should be thankful toward the Estate & LA Reid (Epic), the producers & most important The King himself, Mr. Michael Jackson, for all what they have done for us.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Just wanna say that the music so far has been incredible. The rest should be interesting as we've heard it already. Can't wait!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I can not tell ya'll how MUCH I ENJOY LNFSG... BOTH mixes, i LOVE them!
As you may know, i don't listen to anything else...

One question:
In this new making of clip: Is there new music in there, meaning spoilers?
Just wanna know if i can watch without spoilers?

"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."

Greatest entertainer alive. #2.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

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.... :)

I was alive during all that time, but only a baby or a kid. How I wish I could have seen this man perform. Bought tickets to the second night of This Is It, great seats too. I think all the emotion I invested in those months (March-June) has taken a very long time to return when it came to MJ... but Bad 25 and now Xscape are doing an excellent job. :)

There's a brief clip of xscape at the beginning, but literally it's just a couple seconds. Then it's just Matt Forger sitting there talking. Absolutely no background noise at all during the clip.

Here, if you don't want to hear the first 6 seconds, here's the link for it starting at the 7 second mark :D

So it will probably leak anytime now..

Are there still no snippets available in retail websites? What is going on here? It's 3 days until it is officially released and no snippets?!

I certainly didn’t want to read and comment about music that I don’t care for (but still appreciate) and music that I totally love with uncontrollable insane passion -because I’ve seen people be called casual fans or worse, fake fans, and I don’t have “rhino” skin.

I come to think about a boy whose mother said he was Michael´s biggest fan.
Chandler is the name.

LNFSG hands down, but its down to the mix, LNFSG its okay, could have been better, but HMH was so simple, boring and weak its almost unbearable.

most importantly, HMH is 98% Akon and 2 % MJ. I dont count it a MJ song, to be honest
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Digging the new song's from the album 'Xscape' they sound so fresh! as if they were recorded yesterday, Michael had a true understanding on how to create flawless productions of music.

Flawless AND timeless :D
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

If only the same producers on Xscape worked on Bad 25, Michael and maybe even Immortal. They did a very good job and didn't do a tacky remix like Afrojack and Pitbull. They HAVE to be on Dangerous 25 or the next project.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

If some people have the album already it will leak today I'm affraid...

Hope it will not affect the sales negatively...

very true, but my statement regarding his brilliance was sincere & from a loving place :heart:

Don't know, but apparently some have it already-...
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Since at this point it's probably already in storage in some stores, it's not hard to imagine how CD's have gotten into people's hands. From the factory to the customer,CD's go through a lot of people's hands.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I'm still extremely amazed that it hasn't leaked yet! (And also very very jealous, haha!)
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Friday is gonna be the longest work day ever! Im sure i'll end up being the one in need of the drugs and straight jacket, and not the patients......
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

It is amazing actually that it hasn't leaked!!

Pretty good job in 2014 to avoid a leak!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

^^Sony employees, perhaps?

Damn, Germany, Finland, Austria, etc are about to have the album and many of us will have to wait a week! *impatient* :timer:

It is, isn't it? :lol:

OMG, I've just listened to the previews of Lovin You and Chicago. Seriously, I don't have the words to describe the songs.






AWESOME AS HELL!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Lovin You is better than Best of Joy IMO.

Man, the songs are keep getting better and better! :D
