Thanks Mel. I knew about this, that Sony was sharing the songs. I figure that they are finding it super difficult for his songs not to leak, so they decided to share them. I just hope that everyone buys Michael's album anyway... let's show the world how much we love MJ!
It's all for L.O.V.E.

Here's a fantastic review of the album in the Huffington Post by Joe Vogel. He has stated just what I'm thinking too... that his album may not be exactly what Michael would have wanted it to be, but it is absolutely the best tribute. So I really commend Sony and all the producers, engineers and artists who made this album possible for us, the fans. www.huffingtonpost.com/joe-vogel/is-michael-really-michael_b_791987.htmlI'm so excited that Vogel sees a few hits coming from it too!

Hats off to J. Randy Taraborrelli, who went on the CBS Early Show to wholeheartedly support the album... he says that Michael would approve, and I agree. It may not be exactly what Michael wanted released, but can any MJ song be released now without some controversy? www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7145312n&tag=related;photovideoBe aware that Jackie Jackson was interviewed by ACCESS Hollywood for today's show, saying that Michael would hate the album. I understand where he's coming from (that he still mourns his brother so much and wants people to know Michael's wishes) but it really saddens me. I will always support the family, but in this instance, he has to realize that these kinds of public comments only hurt, not help Michael's legacy. My point is, his fans are mostly loving the new music, so hats off to Sony for releasing it, and for streaming it online for all of us. They did NOT have to do that, but they did. Even knowing that they may lose sales from those people who hate Sony but still love Michael. Personally, I LOVE MJ more than I dislike Sony, so I will be buying the album really soon, and therefore contributing towards his childrens' future and to his legacy.

MAL, I think what Jackie meant was that because it's unfinished, Michael would hate it. We all know that Michael was a notorious perfectionist and while the CD is good it would not live up to Michael's high standards.
I thought Teddy went in to fix Breaking News, it sounds like the same version to me.

I got the new CD yesterday and I have to say that I absolutely love it! I know some fans are upset with Sony for releasing it, saying they are just doing it to make more money of Michael, but I am so grateful to have more of his ingeniuos work. I know it's not perfect, it's not what Michael would have released had he been here to have the final say, but it is Michael nonetheless. His creations, his voice, and I love it.

I like all of the songs on the new album for different reasons, but how AWESOME is "I Can't Make It) Another Day?" I love it when he belts the lyrics out from his core, and the chorus is full of belting.
Oh MJ. I've been watching the Vision DVD as well, and had never seen the short film for "Say Say Say" before. It's fantastic! I love the travelling carnival style setting and he's irresistable. Paul McCartney's great as well. Sigh ...
