New MJ content (Possibility)

Out of all incomplete songs in the vault; there are at least dozens of them, I wonder what made the Estate look at an unfinished cover of a song from the 70's and go "Yep, this is a hit. Remix it and release it". Surely there are more other songs out there with more potential than an unfinished cover lmao.

You mean an all-time classic from one of the great groups of all time?

And they didn't release it, you're acting like it was the lead single.

...Except that it has only one verse and a chorus and isn't exactly an original song since it's the exact same as the original version, but unfinished. Certainly there's something else in the vault that has more potential.

The song is unfinished because it's by design, a group song. It kinda has to have other people to sing it. If MJ even sang about 60% percent, that's objectively enough.

Almost doesn't cut it. Breaking News was released, that's worth complaining about more. There's plenty of outtakes that were worked on for this and every project beforehand.

But they picked the song with the intention of releasing it, otherwise they wouldn't have finalized the remix. This wasn't the point I was trying to make so I don't know why you're nitpicking it.

True, can't argue with that lmao. At least they didn't pick another Cascio track.

Fact of the matter is there isn't nearly as many finished song takes as we think. Maybe they decided to leave it behind for the potential Duets album.

While there isn't as many songs as we'd like there to be, there's enough songs to last us for the next 25 years, with leaks and such. We aren't full to the brim with outtakes like with prince, but we aren't scraping the bottom of the barrel like the beatles are.

I have no idea how much Beatles material is left. I love Free as a Bird and Real Love though.

There is like 2 songs left to be released, an instrumental song made for a fair of some kind I believe, and a song called "now and then", it's vocally complete by John back in the late 70s, and had a bass track completed by george that he worked on it in the 90s with real love and free as a bird.paul and Ringo have shown interest in completing the song in the past, hopefully it gets finished.

Sorry now that I think of it, it's like 60% complete vocally.
