Re: It's here: Akon feat. Michael Jackson "Hold my hand" UTube Audio pg. 1; lyrics posts 55 and 188

^^ yes, its very exciting to hear Michael's voice again... I :heart: it!!!:D I can't wait for this new era!!:)

My two cents... I think it's a GREAT pop song and should definitely be a hit on top40 radio stations. I love it and I think I've listened to it like, 40+ times already today, lol.

I don't know if everyone is still listening to that crappy youtube version, but there's a website that's streaming the song in high quality:

http://www.rap-up.com/2008/06/30/new-music-akon-f-michael-jackson-hold-my-hand/

And if you happen to use FireFox, and have a certain add-on, well, it's easy to just dl the file, not that that's what I'm telling peeps to do... heheh... Otherwise, you can just keep hitting the play button.

Can't wait until Michael's OWN song drops. :D

See now, I never understood people thinking Michael might have lost his voice when there was no evidence to support that, but THIS just solidfies the fact that he's in his prime and now anyone who doubted him has got scrambled eggs all over their face! Lol. Michael's voice is in top form. The best time to hear the amazing quality of Michael's voice is when he draws words out, giving you a chance to hear it. He does that here and you could just die from how beautiful it is. I'm gonna go listen to it another million times. See ya!

Probably just Akon like 3T's "I Need You" right?


I don't think so. Maybe the scenes of the recording of music. It is the first single and with the participation of Michael. All want to see Michael Jackson.
 
Re: It's here: Akon feat. Michael Jackson "Hold my hand" UTube Audio pg. 1; lyrics posts 55 and 188

Don't you guys think it's amazing how Michael imitates Akon's voice? I don't think it's a voice decoder. Michael's can emulate people's styles and phrasing like a machine.

Man, I just listened to it again, only my second time folks, and I swear, this song just puts a humongo smile on my face. It's a straight up feel good, inspirational piece of music and I LOVE it, and Michael just takes it to another level with his vocals. He's just the best. Gahh, I don't even know what to say. Those essays are gonna have to wait Chaos, lol.

Yes I hear that too wanabe.. Not just that, but at parts durring his own verse, he blends his voice with Akons very well..

He did this with celine Dion on what more can I give really great too.. Just how u cannot really tell when one persons vocals end and the other begins, but u can tell the two apart.. Mike meets that person at that specific tone and vocal, and let that person cary it.. As he did in butterflies as well..

He's AMAZING

Exactly. That's what I'm talking about. He did it with Celine too, like you pointed out. His ability to blend with others and match someones vocals is out of this world, even their phrasing and tone. DANG! He's TOO talented. I mean, he makes his voice sound like Akon's, same vocal style, etc... only better, lol. This song is amazing to me, lol. It really makes you feel good!

Agreed! Michael's just emulating Akon (and the original demo), really well.

An Anthem indeed, It is a call for the people of the world to UNITE. I expect to see many people holding hands while singing this song. It was meant to be spiritual, hence the organ at the beginning and the piano throughout.

AllHipHop are excited about something! It looks like the rumblings of new Michael Jackson material is on its way! Here's what Illseed @ allhiphop has to say:

"Akon’s new single features Michael Jackson – YEP! That’s what I am hearing. From what I understand Akon is taking his game to the level above next level and working with the “gloved one.” But what is going to be even more incredible, is they are even going to do a video for this song.

Guess when it comes out? Late July. You heard from from the illest to the seed right here. I would LOVE for Mike to come back. It may not be Thriller but I saw about three Michael Jacksons and the BET Awards and its time for the original."

Sry, but I just HAD to see this sheet again! HA! They ani't never lied....:punk:

Re: It's here: Akon feat. Michael Jackson "Hold my hand" UTube Audio pg. 1; lyrics posts 55 and 188

:p

I thought that when I heard the intro for the first time. Not to over state this, but it was like a religious experience moment. No other way to describe it.

ESPECIALLY NOW THAT I'M HOME AND HEAR WHAT THIS REALLY SOUNDS LIKE.

I think we gonna have another 'We Are the World/Heal the World/Man in Da Mirror' moment!

Oh yes. :yes:

***

Now when they sing this on the 51st Grammys (song of the year nominee), I'm gonna have to tell Micky to hook up a full orchestra on the intro.... need to bring in Ladysmith Black Mambazo to do the chorus.... oh yes, I wanna full blow out on this song!

So I've been giving the link to all my friends and here are some choice responses:

"DANG I like it alot!"

"Wow! He can still sing!"

And my favorite:

"MJ has such a smooth and irresistible voice. No wonder ladies love him. Is it weird that I'm actually getting goosebumps from Michael Jackson?!"


No, it isn't weird.
 
Re: It's here: Akon feat. Michael Jackson "Hold my hand" UTube Audio pg. 1; lyrics posts 55 and 188

They don't! :lol:

not everyone has pitch perfect ears, I'm partially deaf and I sometimes have trouble picking up who's who as well as lyrics in a song.

So yeah.... :yes:
