Young_Gun Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I don't know what I think of the song yet, I guess I need to listen to it some more.But the fact that Michael never released it was probably because he himself wasn't happy with it. I hate that he doesn't have a say anymore, that it's up to others to release his music and other people cashing in on his work. It's disgusting.Your totally right. With Invincible, which was a decent album but not up there with his best, it still had the Michael Jackson quality to it. It was polished to perfection and you could tell alot of effort was put into it. This song sound like a mash up almost, inconsistent and lacking feeling, like a bunch of chorus's and verses thrown in together with no thought. It is quite sad that he isn't around anymore..

SunnyDRE Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Reminds me of 90's R&B. Blackstreet, Silk, Boy II Men etc.I'm not really sure if it is Mike or not, I honestly don't care; But I will say I do think his family should have some say over his legacy......slimy as they may be.When I die, I want everything to go to my family, know matter how many times they may have fucked me.

ChineseDemocracy2004 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I can't stop listening to this but reading reports that members of Michael's family don't think its him singing is worrying.The chorus is a world beater though.

Chris1989 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Actually I think its kinda good... not great but for unreleased *UNFINISHED* work... its cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young_Gun Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 I'm not really sure if it is Mike or not, I honestly don't care; Wow.. For a guy who wants Slash back in Guns N' Roses soooo badly you sure do have some very inconsistent standards.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Do you remember what South Park did when they used Chef's voice? You could use a computer using Michael's voice and build a song with the help of Pro Tools and a lot of processing. But if you go back to the official site, they posted the entire song up. I've heard random bootlegs, and I can see why Quincy Jones said they had recorded 800 songs and cut it down to one album. Granted he's exaggerating, but it's like Prince - there's nothing that's going to make you go "wow" any more than GNR outtakes that didn't make the cut. There might be one or two gems, but most of it's going to be hype over substance. Maybe Will I am or Rick Rubin can make magic happen.

chevelle Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 The name dropping was fucking ridiculous, but the song was pretty good. Better than that "Opis None" remix the Jackson family tried to pass off as legit new MJ music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 If that isn't really Michael, then I still like a song a whole lot.Fuck it, we'll do it live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon87 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 The song's ok, imo. Not more, not less. Keep in mind, "Ok" isn't the standard MJ went for... The name dropping doesn't annoy me too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickzark Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 (edited) It is good man.Actually as a MJ fan to, with Guns of course (i was born in 80's when both where great) i was waiting more,but ok.We miss MICHAEL Edited November 12, 2010 by nickzark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdHeartBreaker Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 A track called Keep Your Head Up has recently leaked, not sure what to make of it, i find it pretty poor tbh. We have the 1st single Hold My Hand hitting the internet 15th November at 12:01am EST.wasn't blown away with Breaking News which is slightly disappointing all things considered..MW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 (edited) Hold My Hand is out.http://breakingnews.michaeljackson.com/I liked Breaking News. EDIT: And Keep Your Head Up is alright. Only listened once so far though.Also, just 10 tracks for Michael? Get the fuck out, goddammit.
