Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.
I admit, it is not a very scientific comparison. I should have said many of the leaks I heard were on YT. In those cases, the start and end depend on the uploader. In all of the comparisons, I believe there was no more than a 15 second discrepancy. The Xscape leak I am referring to was on YT as well and the uploader made a video for Xscape using the chase scenes from Smooth Criminal.

It feels good to see all this hype without controversy. I just wish they had done the right job with the 'Michael' album too. Finally, with this release we have the hype as it is supposed to be. All I hope now is that the Estate maintain and keep up this pace with the rest of the songs.

I don't know whether to dance or cry, I'm so happy and love that damn song
First thing I did when I woke up is to play LNFSG (duet version as solo version is restricted in Ireland too?) and it wasn't a dream, it is a great song:bow:
Btw MJ ft JT version has 1,478,996 views in youtube :clapping:

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.
Yes, and the solo version has about 700k views according to those who are still able to see it. So that's about 2.2-2.3 million views in about 24 hours! I checked Coldplay's new song yesterday and it had 2 million views after 3 days on YT (it was uploaded on April 29). And there is big hype about their album, so this 2.2 million views in a day is awesome for MJ!

Not to mention Golplay are touring at the moment so they can promote their stuff, so it is great to see how well that damn song is doing
I call it that damn song because I keep playing it and cannot stop listening to it:chillin:
I might have serious addiction to it

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.
I don't mind, because I couldn't resist to listen to the new JT/MJ/Timbaland version with my wife and my daughter (1,5 years old). We were all mesmerized! What a production, what a song. I was in ecstasy, emotional and happy at the sine time!
Words can't express how thankful I am to LA REID. That mans own all of us a big hug!
My daughter wants more, (she can't talk yet, but the word 'more' in Dutch she knows. And she just can't stop dancing and saying HEE-HEE, AAUWWW!! Can't blame her, it's the king of pop! He reaches us all over the world with his music!
Can't wait for the album to drop, may 9th.

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.
I have seen many comments recently by people saying how SICK they are already of Happy. But I'd kind of love it if LNFSG became such a big hit that people would get sick of it by the end.

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.
It's a shame there are so many comments online with "Sony cashing Michael" or "Michael wouldn't want this released" or even "This is not Michael"...
I did. They're working it out,

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.
It's interesting that they cut off some of 'Chicago'! will be a great honor to hear the original track in all it's glory, this is Michael's time! Only 9 days to go until new music!!!!!!! such hype/appreciation, i'm loving all the compliments by the fans. & i just wanted to say that Justin Timberlake was the perfect choice for the duet, he has a great voice and is a real gentlemen with true respect for Michael.

Yes, I've been to hospital four times already, cuz I am so happy that once I was throwing up the whole night, then I got high temperature, around 42°, then I had very bad diarrhea for days which caused dehydratation. I wonder,if happiness a good thing after all.

My opinion for what's its worth, they really made a mistake by not including this track on the album. Hopefully some day it will see the light of day.

or better yet how they pertain to me. I can already tell that you, LAUREN as an agent for EPIC RECORDS, could care less about us minions, but I did record and play all the guitars on this track. (Right, I know, as if that matters to you or yours!)
Have a great day Lauren.

As far as I'm concern, we did finish the song titled "Hot Fun In The Summertime" (Sly & The Family Stones's) for the release. Whether it makes your release is not my concern. What I wrote is 100% accurate and factual non the less.

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.
And one more thing about the new Coldplay album: it has 9 songs. That's just one more than Xscape and that's a current band who are capable of doing new music. So no need to complain about how Xscape only has 8 songs.
