According to the below website, MJ's Thriller 25 Edition comes out Monday in the UK. So I would guess the 13th in America. Correct?

Do you know what will be on the 25 Edition?

I'll be buying Alicia Keys' album. That might be the last new record I get this year.

Vanilli said:

That's where I checked too, and it's not there.

Seal's "System" is great. His best since Seal II.

don't worry Mariah will have an album out soon. she just can't compete with the La Dion.

just sit back and enjoy Celine's reign.

CHIC0 said:

Celine sucks ass

But I'm not even all that excited about Mariah anymore. She can go fuck herself. I'm sure I'll only like a few of the songs on the new album.

theodore said:

oh no! you don't get off that easily! what happened??

Xagain said:

Sounds good. I was bored by the last one and actually just sold it today. I figure I got the "Greatest Hits" and that is good enough for the singles that were on there. I might check out the new one though I'm not looking forward to a duet with the little Mrs. Heidi is "too look at" as Seal is "to listen to". And vice versa, probably! She's got a terrible speaking voice. Not saying Seal is ugly because of that deal with his face, but even if he were good looking, I wouldn't know.

I'm trying to ease down on the buying so I'll probably just pick up that one if any. As for Zep, I'm a fan but I already have a compilation and am buying the full albums here and there (just got "Physical Graffatti" and am loving disc 1 and will listen to the second soon)...it's not like they are putting new stuff on that set!

His last one was way better than "Human Beings." Bleh.
The song with Klum is ok. It's sweet. Reminds me of the songs Gwyneth Paltrow had a few years ago, which I actually really liked. Refreshing change from all the grandstanding flourishes that pass for singing these days.
"System" is 90% dance. Think Seal's version of "Confessions on a Dancefloor." And listen to it on shuffle. For some reason, if you listen to the album straight through, the songs kind of all sound the same, but on shuffle it's a great album.

CHIC0 said:

why is her hair so.....boofy?

Milty said:

yeah..it's a bit annoying

i guess big hair for a big comeback??

I'll be buying the US release of the Hives new one.

Xagain said:

Subscribe to that! Check the ballad..."Rolling"!!

fakir said:

My favorites are "Amazing (Album Version)", "System", and "If it's in my Mind, it's on my Face."

"Rolling" is a good song, too, though. Probably the one that sounds the most like an early Seal song.

Xagain said:

Agreed. Prolly has something to do Stuart Price. The producer of both records.

Bfunkthe1 said:

I didn't realize that. Thanks! I haven't bought the album yet, just been listening to it online.

CHIC0 said:

That hair is whole worlds of bad.

MendesCity said:

you are so wrong for that!

i may get the new alicia keys and duran duran!

I'll be getting Alicia's album of course. Hopefully one day it will grow on me.
