Why on earth did Michael sing on "2300 Jackson Street" the song?

Okay so I realize that Victory was kind of silently dubbed "The Last Jacksons" album with Michael on it. It seemed like Michael REALLY wanted to get away from his brothers and be solo. I mean if he didn't, wouldn't he have had them on the Bad tour with him?

So why did he go back and sing on "2300 Jackson Street?" Was it because of something in his contract? Or was it to be nice to his brothers? Does anyone know..?

Hmmm, either you didn't get what you wanted for Christmas, you don't celebrate Christmas, or you're just really, really bored. I'm gonna guess #3. lol

Jesus, because he is an attention whore. Is it that hard to notice. Michael fans really need to talk to people behind the scenes and ask them "Well, tell me how much of a whiner is michael about his obsessive chart status" I'm sure they have COUNTLESS stories and wonderful examples to demonstrate why Michael suffers from Attention Whoreitis.

Said the man with a "MichaelisLight" name. Gee, I can't figure where you originated from. Maybe Alt.music.Moonwalker/alt.music.michael-jackson or wahtever the shit is called?
Me thinks so.

I think MJ fanatic fans need to have a conference call with every single Label staff that dealt with Michael directly from the past 2 decades n half and asked em "What was your dealings with Michael like" And they will tell you stories of this guy whining at 2 am "Why am I not there..But I want to be there. Im number 2 this week...Why aren't number 1 til infinity? Could you make that happen. I d you don't make it happen I could fire you because I am Michael Jackson" Then you will know why Michael does the things he does. Because he thinks fuckin hits are entitled to him. He is that delusional.


Attention Whoreitis, it's amazing how many years M.J. has been suffering from it.

Symptoms include:

Making a giant Leninesque Statue of yourself
Bringing Webster and Brooke Shields to the Grammy's
Appearing on 2300 Jackson Street
Doing multiple overproduced TV specials
Paying Vh1 to play Ghosts Video over and over again
Making Disney foot the bill for Captain E.O.
Inviting hundreds of kids over at a theme park at your house and having a sleep over when they could all just stay in a Hotel instead of at Michael's house
Paying all radio station outlets to play songs off thriller sometimes 7 times in a row.
Being on Oprah

also will accept:
Moonwalker movie.....
Bashir Interview
Crying on MTV
Crying on Vh1
Crying on CBS
Crying On NBC
Crying on ABC
Mentioning the word "penis" on tv
Kissing Lisa Presley at Mtv Music awards

and countless more channels! Here at Camp Attention Moonwalker WHORE

Good Riddance to new Michael on the radio...and may he never have a runaway hit ever again except in Bahrain with that pandering Katrina Relief song which the victims will never ever ever see that MONEY. Oh, I went there. "


"WHAAAAAT"

Bring it cuz it's already been brought













cool cool cool cool cool cool

3. Yea, Not to shatter your dreams. But Michael doesn't take people into the MJJ entourage hooked on Paxil and over 18 Sorrrrry

He probably participated because it was a song for his parents and all siblings (except La Toya) sang on it. There were only four brothers that was part of the Jacksons by the time: Jackie, Tito, Jermaine and Randy but since Rebbie, Janet and Marlon participated why couldn't Michael do this as well? I think your question is pretty lame. Even though Michael was "larger than life" at the time I am sure he still had strong bonds to his family.

Yeah, Janet was huge by this point, too, so why not Michael.

Its a pleasant song. Proberly the worst off the album though. I find it hard to believe teddy did this song (i think aaron hall is credited too?)

i like to imagine this coulda been a uptempo newjack cut, with the title and all.


Possible song:-

"we're going back, going back to 2300 jackson street (tell 'em where u live jermaine)" (well ok, i'll stop there)
