The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

This stuff is very interesting - I always wondered what Foster's actual contributions to the song were, given how it's pretty much the same as the Dangerous sessions version.

I've written much about Earth Song on this platform.
I won't repeat it here. But the vocal in the outro was falsetto, kind of Marvin Gaye style. There were missing words, etc.
David Foster recorded new vocals for the outro and that went on History.

That's the demo we have, right?

It didn’t yet have those oh so powerful ad libs.
Yep, already confirmed by Bruce. ES (if CT not counted) is the only song on History that wasn't recorded from scratch. Basically just the LV for the ending part was rerecorded.

Yeah, so we figured it out. Glad we ended the confusion about MJ's unreleased track, here!

Is this something new?



Edit: He talked about it ealier, so nothing new...

(Maybe this is still interesting for someone so I will not delete this post)
I doubt he'd be able to get that song released like a lot of people are saying since the owner of the master says he won't release any of the songs MJ made while he was in Bahrain out of respect for MJ's legacy. Would be cool if he were to show a bit of the song in a livestream though.

I know that MJ only recorded a demo vocal for I have This Dream, but I wonder if it is something that could be used.

I do think the song is very mid but it would still be nice to hear the version with MJ and Snoop.

I wonder how many people have the song. It seems incredible to me that a song that should have a lot of owners, don't have a single snippet leaked yet.
 
I'm a bit confused – are 'I Have This Dream' (leaked vers/lyrics contest), 'I Have This Dream' + All-Stars, and 'From The Bottom Of My Heart' separate songs?

They are.

Though it is confusing how many people from MJ's circle referred to the song as "From The Bottom Of My Heart", I think FTBOMH used to be an alternative title for I Have This Dream at some point but then MJ decided to use that same title for a different song later on.
 
Thank you! I find the "each generation shall hear my music and appreciate the gift of melody" lyric from Granite interesting
