My question is that Is this an Estate sanctioned project?

I’ll give it a listen, and it’s a great opportunity to get MJ on the charts again, but… eh. Remixes of previously released tracks don’t really do it for me.

It’s a commercial release of MJ vocals, so they had to have signed off on it.

I knew that remix wasn't made for nothing lol. Weird that it's coming out now rather than on the release of Thriller 40 though.

This is the one that there's already audio out there of, right? Didn't think it sounded all that great if I'm honest.

 

[MJ5]

I liked the live previews, and am looking forward to the official release.

Forgot about that completely! Yeah, it’s very plain. Good charting opportunity, but generic mix.

 

[Mister_Jay_Tee]

It's nothing exciting but if it's enjoyable and party worthy by all means. Really nothing to complain about.

 

[ChanceToDance]

The song is out if you live in a country where it's already Friday.

 

[SmoothGangsta]

Very boring remix indeed

Good time to say the 2015 Remix by Paul McCartney is in many ways the definitive version for me now. Featuring unreleased MJ vocals.

Love this remix. The 2015 remaster of this album is great sounding also.

Strange song structure and transitions. 1st verse comes out of nowhere, first drop without chorus vocals and quite repetitive. I like the structure of the second drop better. As an official MJ single or part of an album, it would be terrible - but when framed as a remix, I find the song listenable and radio-ready, but nothing special. Would like to see the song labeled as a remix though, someone who doesn't know the song yet might think as it is being marketed right now that is a "new" unreleased single. And I don't understand why the remix is released now and not as part of a marketing strategy of Thriller 40 (together with other remixes of songs from the Thriller era), but I guess nobody understands that either...

It’s a mess. The remix that was released maybe 10 years ago, I forget who by, but was much better.

 

[MJ5]

I still love this version. Great mix to start a positive day.

 

[DanGerouS-]

good for the radio, but it feels half-assed.

 

[flight85]

It's a cool vibe.

This didn't even show up as a notification for my Spotify. It's barely considered something new.

 

[Themidwestcowboy]

Not gonna lie, this wasn’t too shabby. It’s a nice vibe.

 

[Mister_Jay_Tee]

It'll be good to hear this in those random JC Penny's that don't play any good music. Or Starbucks or wherever.

 

[Salami]

yep that’s the one, it’s less busy. Plus no Paul. I don’t know why Kygo used so much of the verses of Say Say Say, it’s the worst bit.

 

[wonderouzmj]

Idk why use that song. The song is kinda boring imo. It's like a whole 3min loop. & I hate the snare used in the remix. It's so cringy

they play this where i work, its great hearing it lmao.

 

[Mister_Jay_Tee]

It's ironic that MJs voice always sounds so good over EDM.

This remix by Kygo is extremely boring and surprisingly very little creative compared to his standards. I expected way more from this. Dead honest, not a proper way to give a tribute to both MJ and Paul.

 

[Mister_Jay_Tee]

The song is catchy, and it's been in my head all day so it must be doing something right.

 

[ChanceToDance]

The vocal chops are pretty good but it ends up getting way too repetitive. It would've been better if the remix was longer and had more added to it. 5/10 but had the potential to be 7/10.
