If you like Breaking News and Keep Your Head Up, you'll like All I Need...

If you question the vocals on those tracks, then you'll definitely question the vocals on this one.

This isn't Michael..it's this guy named Dom imitating Michael. This audio is a rip from Peter's voice mail off his Myspace page. Peter is just a fan though..

It wasn't released in time to be considered.

Depending on how Michael is received - he may be up for more next year.

SPOILER: Michael Jackson's new album Michael - exclusive track by track review

by Clemmie Moodie, Daily Mirror 2/12/2010

THE wait is over – and the biggest and most unlikely album of the decade is here.

I’ve had the first ever listen to Michael Jackson’s new collection of tracks, compiled 17 months after he died.

And the album, called Michael, is not half Bad - even if some of the vocals sound slightly less than Jackson-esque.

MJ’s brother Randy has said it’s not Michael on the record but after having an earwig myself, I am satisfied it really IS Michael Jackson.

His voice is unmistakable in the majority of tracks, including personal favourites, Monster and Hollywood Tonight. Now the late star, who died aged 50, is odds-on to trounce his rivals from beyond the grave.

Yep, it’s game on between Take That and Jacko as the Thriller star is tipped to land the No1 Christmas album slot.

HMV spokesman Gennaro Castaldo said: “There’s a huge chance Michael will sneak in and get the top spot from Take That.

“Take That have sold over one million copies already, but someone of Michael Jackson’s status, with his fanbase, has a massive chance of knocking them off. His fans are so excited – like Elvis it keeps adding to the MJ momentum.”

Hold My Hand (feat Akon): The first single is poignant with an eerily prophetic opening - "This life don't last forever." Anthemic track with a clap beat at the end.

Hollywood Tonight: Top tune. A certified Jacko hit. Written during the recording of 2007's Invincible album, but so hot could have come off Bad with its dancefloor feel.

Much Too Soon: A ballad where he croons: "Take away this never ending sorrow, take this lonely feeling from my soul."

Behind The Mask: Here he beat boxes. Yep, beat boxes. Inspired by Can You Feel It and Eric Clapton's Behind The Mask.

Best Of Joy: Soppy ballad time - JLS will be jealous. Cute voice. Tick. Melodies. Tick. Hit. Tick.

Breaking News: "Everyone watching the news: I'm Michael Jackson," he sings, over and over. And he has a right old moan, adding: "All the news today, they say I'm crazy."

I Can't Make It Another Day: Teaming up with Lenny Kravitz, he warbles: "I can't make it another day without your love." Some classic guitar riffs from Kravitz.

Keep Your Head Up: Festive bells chime on this track about a woman's struggle. A children's chorus sings him out.

I Like The Way You Love Me: Originally from 2004's Ultimate Collection, this showcases Michael's voice at its purest.

Monster (feat 50 Cent): A winner. Fiddy's rap brings the tune bang up to date and blends with Jacko's soulful voice.

I know its only a tabloid review but they could of at least researched the year Invincible was released and known that MJ wrote behind the mask, not really a Clapton song is it? Don't get me started on the Casio tracks...

I made this for my iPod for the recent leaks

i cant imagine it running for album of the year , from the songs ive heard it seems like a non coherent album , and is nothing close to an attempt to make the album as close as a new album could be . just saying that hold my hand the least is current , and not a 1980s demo

why the fuck isn't Slave to the Rhythm on the new album?

The snippet of Slave to the Rhythm sounds alright to me but not as mind blowing as I had hoped.

Maybe it's because of the inane callouts over the track to tag the leak.

As someone else pointed out it sounds like MJ vocals, but the music leaves a lot to be desired.

Part of me wonders if various sketch vocals by Michael are floating about - and someone/people/fans even are doing their own mixes.

Then again - it might just be past my bedtime, lol.

[Edited 12/2/10 4:12am]

Slave To The Rhythm sounds a lot like an early demo/rough demo.

I'm now wondering as we are getting some Invincible era leaks I do the era some justice and continue modifying my Itunes version of the album?? Should I make a new album of outtakes or add tracks to my current list? I am wondering whether I should add Blue Gangsta to the way I got Invinc set up. This is how it is at the moment:

Xscape

Heartbreaker

Break of Dawn

Heaven Can Wait

You Rock My World

Butterflies

Speechless

Whatever Happens

Cry

Threatened

We've Had Enough

Would it fit in there somewhere?

How are you guys listening to these tracks? Putting them in a playlist??

Suggestions!!

I have never touched any of MJ's other albums, but have never been happy with Invincible which is why I changed it. Perhaps it's time I moved on and just left it alone!
