Xscape General Discussion

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

Dammit .. I cracked again. That's it. I have no willpower at all anymore. This song is SO GOOD. Could be a great single! Catchy as hell.

Ha ha some reviewer also thought this could be a great single.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Can anyone tell me if there are any exclusive versions of Xscape (like the This is It DVD), such as Wal-mart, target, etc? Or just the country specific iTunes ones.

From a leaked ad it looked like Walmart gets a special version with a different and much better looking cover. Not sure if it has any more exclusives in it.

I remember some fan here were bashing the Estate saying Forger wasn't even contacted to work on this project.. So Nice to see his involvement. :)

Was he involved in the
'MICHAEL'-album?

Loving You, for those who haven't heard it, it is very catchy.
- Starts 90ish, R&B vibe
- A very unique Michael voice that we've never heard in the verse, possibly tweaked with melodyne, but handled well as it isn't obvious like in Hollywood Tonight.
- "And the weatherman saiddd, if you're not well stay in beddd" and "Loving youuu" are the most catchy lyrics
- The chorus is like Michael singing at full power without any grittiness, the part after that has "Loving you, that's what I wanna do" has a very soft harmonic feel.
- The song is more album material than single material, but it's still an amazing song, all songs would be ranked the same in best order.
- Mid-tempo but would suit a dancefloor
- The most catchy song we've had in a longtime
- Unique voice, I can see many stupid casual fans will say this isn't Michael, but it is, his voice could be compared to the verses in "Free" but the song isn't alike.

May 24th. I have lowered my expectations, it could just be a choreographed dance around the MJ One Hologram! we'll see.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

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

BTW - I actually believe it could very well be #1 in many countries!! :)

I would like to see the STTR video too.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

He also praised JT and Usher a year before that lol. Michael was cool with all these young cats "Everyone's doing a great job" he'd always say with a sneaky smirk lol.


MJ Access Hollywood Interview 2006

A.H : Michael I'd would love to hear what you thought of Justin Timberlake? cause he's the closest thing to Michael Jackson, I think today

MJ : I think Justin's doing a wonderful job as well as Usher. It's great to see. I'm inspired by what they do and i'm sure I've inspired them. It's very nice.

I know that. Difference is that in the part you posted the interviewer asked specifically about Justin.
Michael didn't bring him up himself but would rather mention other artists like Neyo, Usher, etc. on his own.
I know a lot of you are big fans of Justin so it's not my intention to bring negativity.
Michael was always very nice about people obviously inspired by him.

By the way am I the only who is getting mixed feelings about the release of this album?
I was very excited some weeks a go about this album and the first single (counting down the days even!) but the closer the release gets the more I miss Michael and get sad. Seeing the song do well makes me sad for some reason because I really wish he was here.
I hope I can get as excited as you guys again. :)
I can't wait to hear loving you.

I'm hoping that it hits #1 in the UK... Although chart positions aren't everything, it really would be an amazing start to an incredible summer of Michael Jackson!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Can't stop jamming out to Loving You. One of Michael's best songs, surprisingly.

It's slowly becoming one of my favorites as time marches on. I'm So Blue stands as my number one as of now, but Loving You is making its way.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Tomorrow APWNN! :) :clapping:
Xcited to see, what they done to that song...
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I don't know why but Loving You reminds me of Free + Farewell My Summer Love, sooo good :chillin:

I very much agree, Michael's voice on this song is so very unique! i love the way he experimented with different styles, shows the raw genius behind the scenes. So simple, yet so beautiful.

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

I'm LOVING this so far. Great excitement for the following songs and I've already heard them all! But I will leave the hologram out. Very disrespectful in my opinion especially considering as good as it is, it isn't his music.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Great job Epic Records for preventing leaks!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Loving You is the best song i have heard since You Rock My World, definitely in my top 5 fave song's!!! Update: Xscape is number two worldwide!!! Very proud of Michael. Night all :heart:
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

personally im most nervous about what they have done with apwnn. it is meant to be completely different from the original.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.


I've been trying to keep each of the tracks a surprise- but so far that hasn't worked. Like, I don't want to know what tomorrow's track is until I wake up tomorrow. Oh well :p I mean nothing by it, really. Don't mind me :D
