Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.
When the solo version was originally uploaded, it was titled "Love Never Felt So Good (Audio)." Now, why would they bother making that clarification if a video version wasn't coming?

Well, at least it's still working on USA... 'cause the views counts to Billboard Hot 100.

They don't always take down '(Audio)' videos to make way for music videos though. For example, Lady Gaga still has the audio video for Applause up, despite the fact the actual music video is up beside it.
Both videos show up and load just fine for me. Anyone contacted the Estate?

I cannot remember the pages the posts were on but, I want to thank the members who posted the preview of the Billboard Magazine article, the official Xscape commercial, and the preview of Xscape’s collaborators.
The preview with the collaborators is AMAZING and I cannot wait to watch this documentary when Xscape is released. This, this, THIS, is what I want for Michael: for Estate/Sony to remind the world why this man truly is the world’s best entertainer. It made me so happy to read Retrohitradio would honor every single Michael had!!!! I only wonder if they will start with OTW or will they truly return to GTBT. THAT is what makes me happy: seeing Michael's art being honored and respected as it deserves to be!
The snippet of Xscape on that clip sounds like a remix and not the version on the Sony phone commercial. The snippet sounded very good so I wonder why that is not the bonus song instead of LNFSG duet. Although I appreciate the LNFSG duet, I still feel it is a wasted opportunity to place it on the deluxe; even more so after hearing the Xscape snippet.
I am saddened that Michael’s solo version seems to be having a technical issue on Vevo. The audio version should have remained as it had over 500K views last I checked. If a video is to come soon for LNFSG, that is fine to include in addition to the solo audio and remix-duet version. Estate/Sony: Please do not reset the counter on these videos as it takes time to get to those number of views.
I cannot find your original post so forgive me for requoting this one.
In my view, Mclain stays true to the demo and that means Michael’s vocals, finger snaps, piano, and yes, tape hiss. That is why the string interlude which includes piano is inspired. I felt he embraced the demo and let the arrangement follow it.
Timbaland is doing the opposite; he has a musical arrangement that is similar to the demo and he is attempting to fit the demo into that arrangement. That is why every time Timberlake hands off to Michael, there is a hiccup. I am glad that in both arrangements, it must have been decided to deepen Michael’s voice.
I personally would not say that Timbaland is advance and Mclain is an amateur. The difference is in the approaches and I respect both approaches. I do see the solo version doing very well for R/B, contemporary, and easy listening radio while the duet will be fine for pop.
I do understand why there is a comparison between the two versions. I do not understand the comparison between the demo which is not a completed song and the Mclain/Timbaland versions but, to each his/her own.
I wonder which version Anka prefers? Actually, I believe there could never be enough versions for Anka. laughs They did write a lovely song.
By the way, if every member would live by the golden rule, the thread would be golden. Treat others the way you yourself would want to be treated. We all have opinions, all of our opinions are valid, and lastly, we all have egos and pride. If you attempt to diminish another member’s opinion, it only aggravates the the other member who has to defend their view in addition to their ego/pride and attention is taken away from Michael and Xscape. I am not a mod however, if you do not agree with another’s opinion, please either ask questions to understand the view in a manner that you would want to be asked the same question(s) or simply ignore it.

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.
Just comparing the length to the leaks. It is difficult to tell if we will hear the versions that were leaked based on this comparison which is very unscientific however; I did it anyway. I personally believe we will not get the leaks as they are known on the cd but, I will be pleasantly surprised if we do.
LNFSG: we should have the exact demo as it was previously heard however, the deluxe version is slightly shorter.
APWNN: deluxe version shorter
STTR: deluxe version longer
DYKWYCA: deluxe version longer
BG: deluxe version shorter
Xscape: THE EXACT LENGTH OF THE 2002 LEAK!!! What are the odds we will receive the prisoners interludes and female interlude in HQ?
From the above, it seems the first video will be the full documentary and the second, the outtakes as it is less than three minutes. I hope there will still be a music video that is not fan made for any of the singles on Xscape.
