confused

This album is going to be 7 good songs with 3 skidmarks.

Funny how they say all that, and that he was sounding his best; in the same time there are "fans" that are saying he sounds like that because he was sick at the time hahahahaha. O Lord. Should I buy this album or just Itunes it and buy the songs that are actually Michael's? What will the art look like inside? Probably not anything new.

I don't know, I probably won't see the album art unless I can find a used copy shortly after release, or I can find the album cheaper than it costs for the 7 legit songs.

I can't believe the rumors that Monster will be the 2nd single. Streaming a crappy track on a website is one thing, but releasing it as a single like Hold My Hand currently is? If that snippet is the track we'll get on the album, I'll be dumbfounded that they think they can release that as a single. Really, I'm shocked its even on the album, but a single?

And yeah, MJ's voice being bad is not an excuse. Why would he record in a studio is his voice was THAT jacked up? I'm hearing every excuse in the book, but all of them are in direct contrast to everything we know about him. He recorded with will.i.am and will said he would warm up for ages. Everyone says that. We've heard him sing spontaneously before, presumably without any warm-ups, and he sounded like himself. We've heard demos before - rought demos - and he sounded like himself. We've heard him toy with his voice on 2000 Watts and Shout - same MJ diction, you can even raise the pitch or slow the playback speed on each track, respectively, and hear MJ in there.

I just don't get it. Its frustrating to think how they could do this. Like I said, even if its him, do they not see anything wrong with putting songs they themselves needed forensic experts and opinions on an album?

It's bad enough that MJ died (understatement). But then to go and pull this shit on his fans?! Unforgivable.

I wonder if Michael ever got annoyed that when he received lifetime achievement awards they would always play a track from Thriller.

Just once I think it would have been funny to hear him say "you know I have done things since Thriller".

sort of like how a certain person is always associated with a 1984 song, film and album? but did mj's fans get pissed if he always did or song or didn't do a song?

man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81

Anyone else hear this about Teddy Riley? http://www.allvoices.com/...c-producer

Not even possible, Mike would just never do that to the world, how many of his fans killed themselves?

OK, it's official: Teddy Riley is cuckoo if he really told this to TMZ. IF this is what he really said...

I think it was a flippant remark by Teddy to one of the fans, humouring the fan, Teddy was like "well if you want to believe that MJ's alive then he's alive, whatever"

Vision:

A quick review:

1: Beautiful packaging, nicest looking MJ set yet

2: Videos are NOT remastered, in fact I was shocked at the quality of some of them.

Even later ones like "Who is it" are unbelievably soft and low quality, as is the sound.

3: Really fucked up decisions were made about some of the content. Crappy cut down version of "ghosts" looks awful with the wrong soundtrack (they are dancing to "2Bad"). "Will you be there"

intro cut off etc etc.

So if you haven't got these already or you want the poor "bonus" disc, go for it. I can see why there is no Blu-ray release. They just didn't bother mastering them.

Liars.

i got mine straight out of best buy

I found it at WalMart, but it was in the music section with MJ's albums. I had been looking around the DVDs for a while, and while leaving disappointedly, I discovered it on my way out when I glanced at the "J" section in music.

I checked the newspaper ads on Sunday to measure the promotion for the release (generally featuring new music/film releases), and I did not see VISION in one single print ad (Target, BestBuy, or Walmart). Also, it was released on Monday, rather than Tuesday - another strange occurance. I expect that perhaps VISION will have more advertising in the USA for preparation of DEVIL's FRIDAY - the major shopping day after Thanksgiving.

I have to say that this product is as weird as it is cool. The packaging is awesome, but strangely in the smaller BLU-Ray height size - not what I expected. I was a little disappointed with the lower quality of the some videos, but I am glad to have it. The booklet is nice, with director and locations listed for most of the videos. VISION is much more like a filler for those who already have full collections of MJ videos. The version of "Ghosts" is weird for those who have actually seen the film. I most enjoy "You Rock My World" and "TDCAU (Prison Version)".

If he had said that I would have died laughing. lol Sometimes it looked like he wanted to tell it like was, but he was holding back. I always laugh during the Oprah interview where she kept interrupting him and it looked as if he was giving her this look like "Oh no you didn't!"

It really is that bad. Its so bad that I won't believe the snippet is real until its proven its actually going to be on the album. Its really not even comparable to Breaking News. It's like the person who sang Breaking News just got tired and didn't even bother trying to sound like MJ.

My "Vision" hasn't arrived yet. Despite getting an email last Saturday saying it had shipped. Damn mail service need to hurry they asses up! I'm thinking of going out and buying the game on Friday (from HMV so I get "Another Part Of Me" on there), if Vision arrives on Friday also it's gonna be MJ overload!!!
