They should have hired that guy, what's his name....Marcus Joseph, or something like that, to fill in for this track. Someone on here posted an imitation of "Human Nature" he did awhile ago. Now HE sounds darn-near identical to Michael. I still would have known the difference, but his effort would have been waaaay better than this Malachi dude, or whoever it is.

Guys,

I've had a few hours away. Read the rest of the comments. Most interesting was the comments from Teddy Riley. Sounds like there is more to come about this.

I know many people doubt it's MJ.

I personally feel as I've stated from first listen it's 80% him with some others on backing vocals.

If it comes out that it's a fake I'm happy to say I'm wrong. If proof comes forward that it is 100% him then I think all the anger and frustration over this track isn't healthy.

And I respect everyone on here, and know some of you really think it's not him. But if it is, then I think you'll all need to admit you were wrong. No biggie though.

As for why wouldn't Sony release Another Day or something else... all I can say is they are playing a long term game. They don't want to blow the A-Grade stuff too soon.

Think back to Thriller - the first single was The Girl Is Mine. I Just Can't Stop Loving You lead off BAD. Neither of those were the strongest tracks on the album, so keep that in mind.

Also Sony have said this is not the single they plan to release from the album. I think they've strategically released this track so all the confusion over the fake/not fake issue is out there and resolved before the album comes out.

I still think they wouldn't release it without proof that it's him.

That's my take, and if I'm wrong I'm happy to say so.

on a separate note

I got my Arno Bani book today from Amazon and the shots are amazing. They show you a whole heap of shots taken in the sessions that can bid on, and some of them are wow, others are "not feeling it".

There are a couple of really cool ones that haven't appeared as yet. I will try and scan them tomorrow at work and post a few.

Well worth getting if you are interested.

Here he is, I remembered his name right, lol. Marcus Joseph:

I can't even see his face, BUT: ....

Really feeling this song today....wonder why......

Ya know, Swa, I'm gonna agree with you

It may be Michael, it may not....let's just see what goes down in the next couple of days. I'm gonna keep an open mind about it

BUT If it's not Michael, they need to fix it QUICK

Timmy84 said:

I don't know what to think right now.

I'll probably gonna have to bring a Malachi video and compare it to this:

Meh, that "Don't Walk Away" is alright I guess. Check this one out though:

'Breaking News' is not MJ. End of story. Anyone who says differently is talking bullsh*t.

There are small parts where it's Michael mixed in with fake vocals.....

SV, what do you think of the snippets of Do You Know Where Your Children Are and the new mix of Another Day?

For that matter, why would Michael refer to himself in 3rd person on a song? It does indeed sound like a tribute track and someone is trying to pass it off as being sung by Michael himself.

those are real dude ......real

@ some fans believing the vocals on *breaking news* are MJs.....

what a mess

It's not Michael. They added ad libs from caption eo in the beginning and trying to do some cut and paste here and there but the MAJORITY of the vocals is not Michael. No one will convince me otherwise.

I ran the background and lead vocals through filters similar to what has been done in the acapella posted by bboy.....

Was MJ recording new material. I was reading about this in the paper yesterday-UK. How his mother is annoyed over the estate etc. The only thing that makes me doubt all this available material is-does MJ actually sit on music. I always see the albums a sa job for MJ (As was)-would he record more than he had to? I could be a lot more cynical than this as I am no fan in the slightest and go on but I am curious-would he sit on music. I dont feel he would waste his time-I dont think he cared enough about the music to do more than required

jason or whoever that impersonator must be shot

just when I first heard the first verse from the song, I knew it's not michael ....I cringed

I only wish the pictures were bigger.

As for the song, it´s really hard to tell if it´s Mike. It really does sound like someone trying to be like him.

cryptic huh?

VERY. Between him and Teddy BOTH posting vague remarks after

this dud is "released" - something stinks.

And to think..they were THAT worried about the Prince symbol. Shoulda

been more concerned with the hack vocals. Audio Experts approved this

garbage was 100% MJ..MY ASS! I almost feel like we are being punkd

as a way to promote the album and build its hype.

[Edited 11/8/10 6:32am]

[Edited 11/8/10 6:32am]

We have complete confidence in the results of our extensive research as well as the accounts of those who were in the studio with Michael that the vocals on the new album are his own. Epic Records spokesperson

so they didnt listen to it them selve and trust it blindly ? cascios probally rich by all this.

and btw i dont understand those tweet messages , i dont have twitter but i find it to be he most illogical way to communicate,

what is teddy saying , that its mike , or not . sorry for my misunderstanding

It sounds like Jason Malachi.

Sorry, I also don´t understand their massages? What do they say then? Is it Mike or not? I´d say 90% it´s not him.

Such a shame.

Was excited to be reviewing a new MJ track today.

20 years in, i can say it ain't MJ. The song is absolute shite, teen boppy crap which cost me some brain cells.

I may be critical of Mike's stuff today, but his released work has never prompted such sayings from me. It doesn't sound like him.

Frank on Facebook said: "Give a man enough rope and he'll hang himself" which means:

To allow someone to do what they want to, knowing that they will probably fail or get into trouble.

As for Teddy, he says things like the truth will come out in a few days.

I wonder how they thought they could fool people that know michael's work and voice for over 20 years. (myself included) Maybe...It's to generate buzz and start some controversy. But eitther way it's ridiculous.
