Anyway, I can't understand how releasing online a fake MJ song is a publicity stunt by Sony Music. :scratch:
I know everywhere (facebook, twitter, forums) is chatting about BN not being MJ vocals...I think this is more againsts MICHAEL album release than in favour of it, no?

With him being gone this is the best publicity stunt they could have come up with. What else could shock us this much?

A clever marketing strategy? Taryll says:

I questioned the validity of the vocal's on "breaking news" and several other songs of theirs that I've heard and they told me no other takes or tracks exist. They claim my uncle was so happy with the performance he instructed them to delete all the other files. I had the honor to learn and watch my uncle record my entire life and that is NOT how he worked. No outtakes, no other tracks, no backups, no proof. roughly 10 songs they turned in… same story for all of them. I asked for the computer it was created on... they said it broke. I asked for the original hard drive... they said it was destroyed. One dubious excuse after another.

Well, I dunno. I read one fan speculating that maybe Sony was gonna be all like:

"Oh, wait... Did we say the song would be SUNG by Michael Jackson? Nu-uh, we said it was BY Michael Jackson!
Oh yeah, sure we said it was recorded in 2007 - and it was. If you wanna hear THAT recording - you're gonna have to buy the album."

Yeah, I dunno either... It's a theory, lol... :D
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Okay, I just listened to it again.

Its Michael. It doesn't sound like anyone else.
Some of you need to quit. You're ruining it for everyone.

Teddy Riley said its real. END OF.
Other people I can understand not trusting, but him, I can and so should you.

It really doesn't sound like anyone else.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

This is first time an Mj song is released while he is not here (except This It It and the demos) and the voice is so weird !

I will not believe even the Cascios, no way.
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

This album needs to be a success for all future Mj projects and I for one don't believe that Sony would do this with so much at stake. Having said that it is only a couple of songs are questioned not the whole album. I'm going to buy this album to support the estate and because i would like to see future projects. All this confusion does not help album sales. The Jacksons are never a cohesive group and seems to throw everything the estate does into chaos. This is the image the public will be left with like MJ didn't have enough controvesy while he was alive. I hope the fans will support Mj not sony or the Jacksons But all thing that reflect on his legacy. Hopefully all will become clear.

Now we have an upbeat DUET song too lol
I like the song but remastered vocals lowers its intensity

I will wait for explanations though
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

listen to 'Do You Know Where Your Children Are?'
thats our Michael Joseph Jackson, the legendary king of pop!

From Frank Cascio:

http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1039749400 No, Sadly to say its Not Sony... Breakng New's is Great. IT Is 100% Michael Voice., He recorded it in my home. Please the fans should be enjoying this special moment. it is special and there are people out there trying to take that away from you and the world... "Jealousy" Please embrace this song as Michael was very proud of it.
Thank u very much :wub:
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I just don't think this is Michael :(

I'm sort of beyond upset. How could they put this on our Michael's album? They are dragging his name through mud. They must be pulling our leg, surely. The song sounds like something Britney would sing. Instead of screwing around with Michael's art, Sony need to hire dedicated Michael Jackson fans who know his craft and how the new songs should sound.

I pray that this new album contains no more bastardised songs like this. Give us Michael. Not an autotuned, layered and fake version of him.

Michael, I miss you so much :(

Some? You need to tell it to hundreds (if not thousands) of fans on twitter/facebook/forums.

To me it's clearly not Michael since the very initial verse.

By the way: anyone knows why Teddy Riley's twitter account isn't verified?
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I think the vocals are from Milli Vanilli....:cheeky:

Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, after the pain of BN comes the sweet bliss of the REAL Michael Jackson! Hallelujah :bow: Amazing! Do You Know Where Your Children Are was stuck in my head after one listen. Oh Michael! :heart: :wub:
 
Re: Do You Believe Breaking News is an authentic MJ track

By the way, I don't like the song that much. It sounds more for Britney Spears or Justin type of songs. I don't know I'm a bit angry, but.....
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I don't usually post on forums but I felt compelled to comment on this.

What annoys me is fans that outrightly declare that this is a fake track and that 'real' fans would know. Clearly there are some that believe this is real and some that don't and both are valid opinions because nobody will know for sure.

I believe that Michael Jackson features heavily on the track that this was a demo he recorded with incomplete vocals. This has then been produced by Teddy Riley and backing vocals added to create layered vocals throughout.

Did fans believe that there was a full album, completed and ready to go before MJ died? Clearly a lot of the tracks are going to have been 'worked on'.

From reports, the Jackson family appear to be divided on the vocals, they are just the same as fans, listening to the track and having an opinion on it. There view is no more valid then anyone here, just because they are related to him does not mean they know his voice inside out. I could sing, it could be altered in the studio and my Mum would not know it was me.

When I first heard 2000 watts, i kept waiting for MJ to start singing because i didn't recognise the voice. For any one on here to claim they definitively know its him or not is incorrect. Unless you stood by him in the studio and watched him as he sang this you can only guess.

I for one don't believe that Sony and Teddy would put out a fake track because as Teddy said, it would be in court. The reasons they wouldn't hand over tapes to anyone is likely because it would then be clear to the world that all they have done is worked on a rough demo and that goes against their marketing strategy of 'brand new album'.

Is the fact that this isn't a 'completed' MJ track a put off for people? Because sadly Michael isn't here anymore and a large proportion of his output from here on is going to be influenced by other people.

I still love the track and see it as another song from MJ - his vision completed by a producer who he trusted.

Sorry, but I disagree with your post.

I understand why some say "REAL FANS WOULD KNOW it's not Michael". Because, real fans know his voice (simply because they listen to his albums all the time, have heard his songs numerous times and therefor would recognise his voice), as opposed to the general public who probably could think "Breaking News" features Michael's vocals simply because they are not familiar enough with Michael's voice. Not only that, but Michael's FAMILY has said it's not Michael's voice. Seriously, do you doubt their judgement as far as someone's VOICE? Come on.........there is no discussion. It is not Michael's voice. Compare it to ANY song Michael's done, and you hear the major difference. It is an INSULT that some think it's Michael's voice, because it means they do not understand the magnificense of Michael's ART. Simple as that.

Also....you ask if we think there was an album ready to be released? Yes. Michael WAS recording for an album back in 2003 when he was thrown into the biggest nightmare of his life; the trial. He was in the middle of recording the video for the first single: "One more Chance".

But still, there doesn't HAVE to be an album ready to go. Michael wrote hundreds of songs PER ALBUM, of which he recorded about 50 -100. Out of those Michael would have to make a choice for 10 or 11 songs to end up on the actual album. Meaning there are 90 something songs that are left recorded, but unreleased. An album could EASILY be compiled with those songs. The Ultimate Collection boxset for example, has some of those songs. Be it complete or incomplete.
 
Re: Do You Believe Breaking News is an authentic MJ track

This is soooo unbeliveably fuckin sad!
Wake up and there is a new MJ song all over the internet!
And its in my head that the vocals may just be fake!

I don't know :(
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I can't believe 50 procent of the people believe this.Sony's games are going to be succesfull.PEOPLE WAKE UP.We are listening to Michael's voice for years, some generations.I've never made mistake about his voice and I'm 100000000000 procent sure it isn't Michael who sings the main words.The first 3 seconds of singing are enough for me.

me too i can tell from one word...i knew in the first few secs jeeeez
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

As I said before,

FANS SHOULD LEAK EVERY SINGLE UNRELEASED TRACK!!! This would be the best pressure...
 
Re: Do You Believe Breaking News is an authentic MJ track

I am not quite sure about it but it might be authentic track..Lots of things can be done in studio..things can be faked or can be made altered.And if it was really recorded in some house then it is possible that it sounds little odd to many people.When you listen to shout (invincible outtake) it also have different Michael vocals..his voice was deep like this breaking news single.I will not argue about it as Im not sure but ya the lyrics indicates Michael has to do something with it :) It's like Tabloid Junkie,Privacy so it might be Mike on vocals..On some parts its exactly him but ya there are many frames in this song where it doesn't sound like him but I think if you like the song then you don't have to be ashamed of it cuz in History it will be known as Michael Jackson's song :)

Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

I think the vocals are from Milli Vanilli....:cheeky:

How can anyone seriously think its Michael Jackson?
 
Re: BREAKING NEWS Countdown and Reactions thread! All discussion in here. [Merged]

Can someone tell me why then would Teddy riley LIE???
The man thats worked with with michael on probably hundreds of songs for 20 years??

I notice all the doubters seem to be avoiding this question (probably cause they know they'll sound stupid if they answer it).
