Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Michael"

Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

All the songs are MJ. Sony isnt some back in the backyard desperate label.

With or without Michael Jackson they will survive and make money.
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

That's how I felt like. I didn't immediately think "it's not Michael" but my heart just sank. I was loving the music until the vocals came in and I was like .. :mello::mello:...:(:(...

Here's my dilemma, I adore the 7 other songs but I'm feeling weird over BN, KYHU and Monster...

The truth will come out one day.It will take time. For sure Cascios are going to say on Oprah's show that all their tracks are real, because there is nothing else for them to say.

I think too many people find TWTYLM a bit lame.

I actually like The way you love me. I think it's not of single quality but it's a good album song.
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

Fans are allowing one year wonder 3 t and the never hit Jacksons (Without MJ) to influence them. Your starting to overanalyze every MJ song because of what a member 3 t said.

*Sigh* It's been told about a thousand times that it's not about 3T influencing anybody. Many of us were waiting for Breaking News to be released with the same excitement as anybody else and dismissed the family's claims. Until we heard the track....

The Cascio songs do sound really strange. And funnily enough all of them. But even if they are Michael they were obviously very far from release-ready and they needed a lot of tempering, processing and cope&paste work - which is alone a reason why they shouldn't be on this or any album IMO. When there are songs in the vault like Blue Gangsta and 12 o'clock I don't understand why Sony wants the Cascio songs so much.

Do you know about successful albums? You can't have up tempo, up tempo, all album long. You got to mix it up with some mid tempo and love jams. You cant be a classic album without that romantic love jam. Which is why Thrlller is MJ's best to the WORLD....and not just the fan base. Relationship type songs are catchy and thats a fact.

Getting off that subject when it comes to the USA Hip Hop radio is more popular than pop radio. Look at Billboard hot 100. Alll artist are popular on the hot 100 and r&b chart. The dance tracks got a hip hop beat. Pop music and its beats are OUTDATED in the USA

Artist are getting with the more Hip and Hip Hop producers. Keep Your Head up is perfect for Urban radio just like 2001 Butterflies. You got white artist trying to get with Hip Hip producers. Why? Because its burning up the charts and thats whats hot hot right now.

For example...Hollywood Tonight. That aint not POP BEAT... Thats Teddy Riley r&b/hiphop new jack swing at its best. Teddy aint never been pop.

I always loved that song just for it's honesty. It's sweet but in a very simply way. "I like the way that you hold me." It's so happy in in a simple way, I think that's why I like that song so much.

The new version of The Way You Love Me sounds kind of weird to me. I think i prefer the original. Monster sounds really good.
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

I don't know, but all snippets on HMV sound awesome. I can't stop playing them.

Is it because of my Bose speakers? Is it because it's the weekend? I actually love all songs.

I'm excited again!
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

I think this album will be a big hit in the clubs.

Hollywood Tonight, Monster, Another Day, Behind the Mask. Can see all these being played heaps. especially HT and Monster. Possibly even Breaking News.

Im exagerating but yout setting yourself up to be upset. No Children songs
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

The 'Hollywood Tonight', 'Monster' and 'Behind The Mask' snippets are awesome!

*YAWN* Cannot believe that some members are STILL carrying on with the 'fake vocals' assumptions...Honestly, it would be hysterical if it wasn't so damn frustrating.
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

I like what I'm hearing in most of these. ^__^
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

My goodness. :wild: Awesome previews. The album will be a hit for sure. :punk:
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

Dear sony thanks for ****** up The way You Love Me, IDIOTS! why would they ruin the song like that?! ugh jerkshits
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

"The way You Love Me" on the ultimate collection being a demo sounded complete! So there was no need to update it in my opinion! So I guess that really leaves 6 MJ songs and one to re-buy for some! Damn! SMH
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

Relax I think that twylm sounds great, but with a modern twist too it. Not as organically beautiful as the demo but, still great and modern.
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

Anyone know if they added the vibrato digitally? Cause what strikes me the most, is exactly that. On all the Cascio tracks, especially KYHU is so overdone, its not even funny, it's even downright annoying. If this has not been done digitally...i'd say it's a huge giveaway really.

.

I am sure of it. Since the first listening, I heard the effect. Vibrato is added, it's not human.

Probably they added it to give the demo vocals some studio effect. I am sure on some crappy mic, those vocals weren't too crystal, so they put that vibrato on in order to improve the studio sound... ?
Not the best choice I agree.... Looks like half pro job, not fully pro.

The good news is that on BN they erased that Jackson doubling, or muted down. It does not strike me anymore. That was so unpleasant for my ears. lol Now I find BN more enjoyable.:punk:
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

^ ^ this vibrato is natural and matches Malachi's vibrato.

See the countless comparisons others provided the past weeks

:smilerolleyes: It never ends.
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

I think I'll just buy those 7 songs from Itunes...I'd rather buy the album but I can't with those three odd songs. Sorry. It could be mj but not completed, mj and heavily edited or just fake (which I doubt, I think they just mixed voices), either way, those songs seem fishy to me so I can't buy the album...

However, I'm PRAYING that the album goes straight to #1 everywhere. Just so Michael breaks a record.

P.S.

I actually LOVE The Way You Love Me. It's adorable.

If the album doesn't go to number one, you know who to blame. This shit doesn't make sense.

"I'm not going to support the album - Im against it... but I hope it goes to #1 worldwide!!"

Who are you telling us to only be positive. Stop whining about every single cascio post.

Wow lol ok...then lest be negative, yea that's a better alternative...

I got to say I agree with AnnieRUOkay...people should really try to stop complaining about the Cascio tracks in EVERY SINGLE thread, it brings the whole mood down and besides we already know what the opinions are...lets celebrate the other songs.

Well yeah, I guess you can't share your opinion with others on a forum.

again...the hypocrisy that we've been witnessing .

This is not MJ's album, he had no say in this....but I will illegally download the songs so Sony & Mottola (yes, apparently Mottola is still with Sony according to some person on Twitter) won't profit from me.
:doh:

I won't buy the album...but I hope it goes to number1 and breaks record.
:doh:

The nonsense...is astounding. But not unexpected.
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

i must cry :( Hollywood Tonight and Best Of Joy are so incredible this is our Michael and not Monster etc. :( I miss him so much

Don't we all honey, don't we all? :(

I cannot freakin' WAIT to shove that gently into the CD player of my car with slightly shaking fingers and blasting if as loud as possible without attracting some cop to pull me over because of excessive celebration while driving!!

Good man, I am so excited about this album. :punk::punk::rofl:

I think I will buy a bottle of Champagne on the night before the official US release and just down it out of sheer joy that MJ will take his place on the charts once more.

Christmas is coming early this year.

I'm so psyched just after clicking through each title, one by one. *dances*

There's definitely some getting used to about a few things, but overall I am just psyched and happy- about 'Michael' for Michael.

You can say that again, about Christmas coming early this year and everything else. Would looove to pump the cd in my car, but me and drivin' ain't the best of friends these days, my speed demon days are behind me...unfortunately, for now, at least.

am i the only one who likes the newer version of another day more? :D Michael screams his heart out

Nope dear, you're not the only 1. He does scream his heart out, doesn't he? Good for him 2. He did say it when he was little - he don't sing it if he don't mean it.

I adore Another Day!

So do aaai

I like that "screaming", babe's unleashing some passion there. NICE!

You can say that again.

Yes, they have reworked the song. To correct you: A snippet of "Another Day" first leaked on 2nd February 2010. Journalists that are writing the song leaked in 2008 are nuts!

Sorry to correct ya Korgnex honey, but that tiny bit was on January 2nd 2010, trust me on this one. As i foresaw then that snippet was all we got at the time and that was enough for then, but now i do feel it is time we got to hear it in full. I really can't forget the beginning of the year even though i truly, really want to. The total opposite of 'let's start the new year right'. I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy what i've been through earlier this year.

cant wait to here some of these songs like monster and HT banging at the nightclub i work at

They areeee some club banging song alright :D

Ok I didn't think I should make a new topic just for this so I'll say it here:
When "MICHAEL" becomes #1, MJ will be the only artist with number 1 albums for 5 consecutive decades. This is why everyone must buy the album!

Preach it :punk:

It seems that even though we got an awsome album some of us still are not satisfied.That's pretty sad isn't it?

Verrrry sad indeed.

Oh I want this album now! :(

I don't, i can wait till December 14th, which also happens to be a special day for me. So nope, i don't need it now, i can still wait, but my patience reservoir is reaaally runnin' on almost dry.

Hold my hand A classic AAA

Keep Your Head Up uplifting song with great lyrics

The Way You Love Me is very erotic

Thank you Michael!

The way you love me erotic? That's a new one :lol: If that's the case, i wouldn't want to know your opinion about Break of dawn, the end of the Lady in my life, In the closet, Superfly sister, some other not-so-innocent songs he was involved with and the fact Mike commissioned Kels to write for him another Ignition :cheeky:

Listening to these snippets makes me laugh at the reviews tabloids gave the album. Especially The Sun.

It does make ya laugh at their pathetic words, don't it? As if critics mattered everrrrrrrrr, let alone biased tabloid reviews. Remember folks - their lies cannot control the minds of those who know that they'll even sell their soul just to get a story sold. You really shouldn't buy it (literally and figuratively speakin) those who do are only feedin' an infernal machine. And most of ol, whatever you do, you must always remember - just because you read it in a magazine, or see it on a tv screen don't make it factual.

Almost nobody knows it.... few fans that bought it or downloaded it.... There are many fans that didn't hear the songs on Ultimate collection trust me. As for the rest of the public... Why hide those tracks? Put them again in new albums.... We've had enough especially.... that's a masterpiece!

You got that right. I still dream of the day when the world will get to hear We've had enough and listen to it, not just hear it.

I always loved that song just for it's honesty. It's sweet but in a very simply way. "I like the way that you hold me." It's so happy in in a simple way, I think that's why I like that song so much.

So do i, so do i. I'm awel about simplicity.


THANK YOU Korgnex for providing the link, that was very much welcome. I cannot wait to hear the complete versions of I like the way you love me, Best of joy, Another day and Keep your head up. Of course i completely and totally love Hold my hand and i looove the beat on Breaking news. I do have a special relationship with the numbers 3 and 1 cause of the Trinity, there are some others related to my birthday and 7 & 8 are my homies, so my choices aren't entirely objective :giggle:

It was January 2010.

EDIT: Shabuya was faster. I didn't read all 26 pages ;)
 
Re: Get a glimpse at "Hollywood Tonight", "Best Of Joy", "Behind The Mask" and all the rest on "Mich

You know, after listening to the snippets 50-111949538923598859982059 times now, I feel like the whole idea for this project (i.e the album cover, the title, and the tracklist) was supposed to take the consumer on a journey through MJ's entire career, atleast that what I get when I take a step back and look at it all as whole. to me it feels like the decisions regarding those three things ^ was supposed to represent MICHAEL JACKSON (the incredible musician's) WHOLE career and remind the consumer why he was(and still is) universally hailed as the "king of pop". I feel like even the tracklist was supposed to represent (or remind the listener) of different times in his career.

For instance (and this is just my opinion) "(I like) the way you love me" and "Best of Joy" take me back to the Off The Wall days while "Hollywood Tonight" and "Behind the Mask" take me back to the thriller days..."Keep your head up" sounds like something that could have been on BAD while "Monster", "Breaking News", and "Another day" sounds like it would have fit perfectly on either HISTORY, Blood on the Dance Floor, or Invincible... just an observation.

Couple that with the beautiful montage that is the Album Cover as well as with the ablum title simply being "MICHAEL"...idk, maybe I'm reading to much into it all or maybe it is as obvious to ya'll as it (for some reason) wasn't (until now) to me. Whatever the case, I like that they went this way and didn't try to make a "theme" type album.
