PrintableI couldn't care less what songs from his past he releases.
What he needs to release NOW is an album of classic r&b tracks, uptempo, mid-tempo, and ballads about love, dancing, etc. Forget the beat-chasing with the current/hot producers and all the bells and whistles. Forget all of the bitter, angry "why's everybody always pickin' on me" whine-fests. It's obvious from about half of Invincible that he's still capable of putting together some really understated, good songs. Why doesn't he? That's where any appeal of Invincible lies. So why not capitalize on it. If he opens his new album with 3 almost identical tracks of ear-splitting, nerve-grating, teeth-gnashing, mess of deathstar beats like the last one, then I'll know there is absolutely no hope left for him and his music. | |

If I had the same attitude towards Prince I would have put him on a scrapheap already. For me, since New Power Soul, he hasn´t released anything powerful really, so why not treat MJ the same way? "When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all." | |

Another song Michael recorded for Bad was Bumper Snippet, which he also re-recored for Dangerous, but so far hasn't been released. Bumper Snippet is actually only 15 seconds with Michael simply saying "Girl I Wanna Grooove!" The second version is from 1990 and includes different sounds and voices mixed together That's right !

Exactly. The last thing we need now is another rummage through his 'unreleased' tracks to see if there are any half-assed demos from a quarter of a century ago that can be desperately stretched into a song. He should either release new material along the lines of what the poster above suggests or announce he's retired - those are the only two options available to him that'll let him preserve what little dignity he has left.

apparently so. i used to as well but don't really give a shit no more. I liked him for what he was, not what he became. J5/Jacksons/MJ from 1969-82 
1982 - now |
