Nope, but they could have added at least 10+ tracks on it, instead of that....they put a old song it, already released on The Ultimate Collection, a very short last song. Really...what more indication do people wanna see how much they are gonna milk this 'cow' ?

Well how can you be surprised? SONY is making buisness.

With MJ dead there are not going to come more songs - so of course they will not release 2 CD with 15 songs when they can release 3 with 10 songs.

People really has to grow up and accept that SONY is a buisness, they only exist to make money - LIKE ALL COMPANIES! Hpw many companies do you know that will not wanna make money? NONE - becuase earning money is what a company is made to do, otherwise is will go bankrupt!!

MJ only leaved a certain amount of songs - AND OF COURSE SONY and The Estate will wanna profit the most from these songs. It's as obvious as a AMEN will be said in church!

MJ's children will profit from each release too.
MJ himself was a very smart buisness man - Had he lived and had he lost his voice and therefore not able to make more songs I think he would have saved the songs he already had finalized too. He would wanna profit too.

Be happy about the 10 songs. And then look forward to getting another 10 songs next year or in 2012. Don't worry be happy...

Agreed. Sony are a business, people need to realize this. Can they handle things better? Of course! I'm happy with future MJ albums having ten tracks, whatever the length of the album may be.I don't want double albums with new stuff on, i want something to look forward to. Doing an album with 15+ songs on is crazy business sense, plus it gives us guys something to look forward to for longer.

Correct.

When people say Sony is all about $$$ - I think - yes of course they are. If they didn't make money they would not exist! It's like hearing a 10 year old communist talking. It's utter nonsens.

SONY is only made to generate money, so was MJJ Production and all other company MJ startet! - Itøs buisness for crying out loud! - Don't be so naiv.!

Take That's new album has 10 songs and nearly the same lenght as Michael - and I have heard not a single fan complaine!!

MJ is dead there are only a limited number of songs to be released - The Estate will wanna make most $$$ out of them, and it's the only responsible thing to do really! MJ being a great buisness man would have done so himself!

Enjoy the album and be happy for the songs we get.

All will come in due time.

I can't support that line.

When it comes to Sony, its right. But MJ did nit start MJJ Productions just to earn money. Of course, everyone is happy to get as much money as possible. But MJ would never do a thang under the name of MJJ Productions which he doesn't stand for. I mean musically. First of all he is a true musician and he was living for Art, not for MONEY !!!

So, if he had to decide to release an Album of an Artist which he don't like, he wouldn't release it under his label.

Yeah exactly. The guys claimed in his book that MJ wrote You Are Not Alone - one of the few songs MJ not only didn't write but had NO writing OR production credits on. 100% credits went to R. Kelly, which MJ let happen coz he knew Kelly has stolen the entire melody of the song. MJ recorded it and released it and it went #1 and coz MJ didn't have ANY credits for the song (apart from him singing it which in ownership lawsuits counts for nothing) he faced NO legal repercussions when the guys who originally wrote it sued. Kelly had to pay the big bucks, lol!

Sorry, went off topic there.

Yeah, that Michael album, out December 14th. December 10th in Australia. 13th in UK. (see how I brought it back on topic there, so subtly)

*goes to bed, hoping to wake up in a few hours to footage of Ellen grooving to Hollywood Tonight*
