Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

As of 3:36 AM (NY) the Duet version is selling better than the solo version on US iTunes.

Try searching "Love Never Felt So Good" I know for me it didn't show up on the XSCAPE page yet, I had to search for the song title and both versions showed up.

To contact them and request MJ:

Go here: http://www.theedge.co.nz/Listen/MediaPopup/ListenLive.aspx and choose 'MSG STUDIO' (you can just put "-" for mobile number). If you're in NZ, you can also just text them (text the word studio followed by your message to 3343).

I texted them to play the song an hour and a half ago and they replied back saying they turned it off because they got an 'overwhelming response' to it or whatever (in all honesty, I think they probably got a handful of texts, if that saying they didn't like it. Not fair for those enjoying it who wouldn't bother to text their reaction to the station. Hell thats the first time I ever contacted a radio station :p).

I think they'll replay it at some point though. They often split up the different times of the day into shows, and the show that turned off MJ got off almost an hour ago so hopefully the radio presenters on now have a far better music taste :p

Of course, JT's fans want the song with their idol too.

Does this radio usually play this Iggy Azalea-Niki Minaj type of music usually? Because if they do I can see why their audience would not like it, but otherwise I do not really buy this "overwhelming negative response" thing. After half a listen? (They did not even play it fully.) With their DJ already introducing it as crap it seems like some kind of set agenda to sink the song. Because even if one is not necessarily blown away by it, but it surely is not terrible, unlistenable, so I don't believe this huge negative response crap.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Being in the UK, it seems I also can only get the solo version.

Does anyone know when the JT version will be available to order on iTunes - in the UK?

Agreed. Some music stations do things like this for effect.

One station / DJ doesn't like it. Big WoWs!

Move on.....
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

The deluxe album is #59 on iTunes India. Singles haven't charted yet. I think this song is comparable to You Rock My World. Radio friendly. Michael would've been proud I think.

I looked at their charts on their website: Clean Bandit, 5SOS, Iggy Azalea... now, I kind of understand. Horrible music there...
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

This is the difference between an amateur producer (McClain) and a professional producer (Timbaland). McClain version should have remained for his personal collection. Timbaland version is amazing, I love it (with or without Justin). Same version without JT should have been on the main album and JT on deluxe. McClain version is just meh.. I hope radio picked Timbaland version for airplay.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Love Never Felt So Good trending on Facebook according to my feed...
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

#64 on UK iTunes.

Not sure where the Justin Timberlake version is, hasn't appeared on iTunes yet. Though when you do click on the solo version, there's a link to the JT artist section on the right...
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Would be good if the two versions counted together on the charts - then it could achieve a higher position.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

So how do people feel this compares to Hold My Hand, the first single off of Michael? I personally find HMH, despite it being a duet instead of a solo track, to be the stronger song both vocally and in terms of production. The history of the song and the timing of its release probably also adds a much heavier emotional punch, but even today it just represents pure love and bliss to me and never fails to give me goosebumps and put a smile on my face.

I also love the video they released for it -- it makes me sad and smile at the same time and it's probably my favorite tribute video released to date. Here's hoping they'll top it with one (or more) of the releases from Xscape.

I don't like that Hold My Hand is mostly Akon. I also prefer LNFSG as a song. But then I'm one of the few who always LOVED the demo as well.
