MJ had the best music in the world of black history!!!!!!!!!mj will be missed deaply

I don't know what to think...already pre- ordered the album, what, last week...could cancel, but I won't. No, Michael probably wouldn't have released this song, at least not like it is...but it is a nice song. It's not the mind blowing kick in the face we wanted..and yes all they want is our money...but at this point I'd be happy just listening to a track of him breathe for three minutes....I know...but that's how I feel...
Love and miss you MJ

I've already heard that song for so many times already and that was amazingly beautiful. Michael' s voice is like he's just starting again in his music career. And i was in awe when I heard the lyrics, it was more exquisite more than I thought. I love It so much.....

Will this go to number 1?????? I think it might Eye-wink ;) Eye-wink Check out all these clips in their original version @ www.michaeljacksonvideoclips.com love frazzled

Does anyone besides me wonder why there isn't one song from Invincible in the track listing? I assume that also means MJ wasn't planning to include any in his concert either. Seems a shame. Invincible is a great album.

Have you ever wondered why some people never find the one person their suppose to be with??? Have you ever heard the expression" Sometimes life gets in the way?"...We go our whole lives looking for this kind of love..But they say only when you stop looking for love can it truly find you.
Michael is Beautiful....Simply Breathtaking Beautiful!
Even if just for a day, I would of ran with you away!

Hi, I like this album! It’s great because it collects MJ’s most popular songs in it.

It’s good too for those who never had the opportunity to have MJ’s albums, now with this new album “THIS IS IT” can have the best songs of his whole career, just in ONE album.

“THIS IS IT” is a nice song. The idea of the POEM and the BOOKLET are great too.

This ALBUM shows us MJ’s dedicate work he did in his WHOLE career, to give us great songs!

Thanks Micheal for your GREAT SONGS that YOU gave us when you were with us!!

I Will Always Love You!! xxxx Smiling

A DEVOTED MJ FAN FOREVER, Bloomfield, NJ

MJ's voice sounds amazing, but I kinda understand why MJ did not release this song in the first place. His voice is amazing as always, the song was OK but definitely showed not the type of final product that MJ would produced.

Issue of Resolution 600-Fight for Michael Jackson all his fans.
On October 14th, 2009 injeri65 says:
Sony has done a good job so far. I know they valued Michael despite an earlier misunderstanding. Sony got the This Is It Rehearsal footage and they are making a good view of Michael Jackson at work. Sony we believe will honor Michael Jackson thus his Estate, children and the fans who buy his music. As long us SONY talks to Michael Jackson fan base, everything will be okay and we know Sony will not double change Michael Jackson. Michael is SONY, and Sony is Michael. So far communication from SONY and Michael Jackson Estate Executors has been very open and good. Michael Jackson succeeded because he valued his fans. Sony can keep Michael’s legacy alive by keeping his fans base informed. We will support Michael Jackson for always. We sincerely loved the guy and he loved us more. We are behind Sony and Michael Jackson Will executors, because this will be for his children and Michael’s legacy. Let’s keep Michael’s legacy alive, we should not fight SONY as SONY is Michael Jackson, they have come a long way. We should all promote MJ music, posters, merchandise, Moon walk biography by Michael Jackson and the Opus. When we do all this things we off set all the debts because some of the debts came about through all the lies leading to lawsuits. It is expensive to defend and star of Michael Jackson magnitude not forgetting security for him and his family. If it was us, and we go through what Michael went through, we would spend to keep ourselves safe as you would not trust anybody. So are we ready to show the world what Michael Jackson meant to us?. Yes we can do it. Where there is the will, there is a way.
I am a Michael Jackson fan from heart. I have watched Michael Jackson since I was 5years old in 1970 and became his fan and I mean a die hard fan to date. Michael was a very loving man as we can all witness how much he touched so many with his love for his fans and the music he gave to the world. Some might not view him that way, it doesn't matter. We his fans have the tools we need to prove him right and a genius by promoting his music and thus his legacy. The guy gave so much to charity and if the tabloids and the media never started their agenda to destroy him the world would have been a better place especially to the less fortunate. To the fortunate he gave his music and kind heart. Michael never let money change who he was. He remained faithful even during his tribulations. HIs song Will YOu be There tells it all. So will you be there to fulfil his desire for hsi children and legacy. We need to refuse with all our hearts the autobiographies of the likes Rabbi Shmuley because it shows outright gold digger betraying someone who was looking for help to understand himself. This Rabbi, Uri Gueller, and Martin Bashir misled him into believing they were on his side, but they were not. It is a shame. I come from Africa and I am a witness to the huge giving through the song, "We are the world" helped raise for Ethiopia. Some haves decided to tarnish Michael's name because he was very sensitive to the injustices in the world and he touched less fortunate people with funds he got from his performances. We his fans can continue his legacy as he fought for the helpless. Listen to his songs like the Earth song, heal the world, we are the world, black or white, and man in the mirror and you will realize he was talking to all of us in the world. We can fight for Michael and show his hater’s did nothing to change our love for him. Michael Jackson fans we are all called, to continue supporting the efforts made by Michael Jackson Estate. We have what it takes to prove his haters so wrong, that they will never ever distract another human being committed to love the world as Michael Jackson. We can put to stop dirty journalism and tabloids to their place by standing for what is true. We have to start with backing Mr. Branca and Mr. McClain, Michael Jackson children. All Michael Jackson fans we need to order more material for Michael Jackson. We have got to show the world Michael was our hero, and music genius. Be careful though not to buy biographies from conmen who never gave positive coverage to Michael and who abandoned him during the 2005 trial. It was a shame to see Michael jackson fly from abroad to stand by him at Santa Maria carrying banners for support during the trial. Michael went through a lot because of people who had sowre to destroy his career and life. Buy the Opus, The Moon walk by Michael Jackson himself, Jones Aphrodite the Michael Jackson Conspiracy, (I have read the book-his lawyer Mesereu in the 2005 trial recommended the book as it is the truth from court room in Santa Maria), and buy his music. I got two tickets to watch this is it on 27th and 30 October- and so are members of my family. I am willing to be added to the list of Michael Jackson World vindication group. The guy lived by his word, but was put to so much ridicule-it is a shame. I thank all Michael jackson fans who stood by him during the trial and those who are still standing by his Estate now. We need lots of support to join this movement. The record in part of Michael Jackson is self explanatory; whatever he did he earned record for it. His love for kids was so misunderstood, and his daughter’s words at the memorial service said it all to the world. May God rest his should in eternal peace and I pray that we all fight for his vindication here on earth.

The other thing is the latest rumour that Mj stole someones recording for this is it. Listen guys don't believe on lies. Michael was number one in many singles that you cannot rust nayone who comes up to discredit him. Remember one thing, this is it was chosen because it suits his last to be concert in O2 London performance not because he realesed the song himself. many gold diggers on the vault. Don't listen to lies. stand out for Michael Jackson, he looks on his fans and says he loves us more.

This song has been leaked. Its all over the INTERNET.

All of MJ's best songs can be found @ www.michaeljacksonvideoclips.com (why does Sony keep changing the format of this site???????) love frazzled

People can say what they want but This Is It is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. I have listened to it so many times and I cry every time. It could have been recorded a thousand times by a thousand artists but this IS it. His voice pulls at my heart and I am drawn beside him. I feel like he is singing to me, like he has truely seen my face a thousand times and I have seen his just as many. He is gone but he is still here and his voice still has the power to move me. Can we move on? Can we love him like we never did and leave it at that? Can we relish in his fabulousness without all the red tape, rumors and questions? Can we really realize that this is it? It's over, he is gone we can't hurt him anymore, only long for and love him and listen to his voice to bring us close to him? Where he is, in God's hands? Maybe not but I know I will listen to him sing to me as often as I am able and feel like I am next to him everytime, and I am. He said "And you said you really know me yourself, I never heard a single word about you, Falling in love wasn’t my plan" It was always my plan, I love you Michael, always...

IN MY IPINION, I think they are taking very seriously FOLLOW THAT OF HIS WORK AS SPOILER artists, composers, and as a human, I would just remind ALL MEDIA THAT WE ARE ALL THINGS THAT WE FEEL suffer, and that anyone OF YOU can make mistakes, and it can get into the eye of Hurricane, AND THAT ANY OF YOU ARE LIKE SOMEONE PUT ALL THAT GOOD BETWEEN ANY OF YOU HAVE DONE IN THIS WORLD. LORDS ARE SOME OF YOU MICHAEL They do not like, but you have NO right to question ALL THAT DID YOUR WORK HERE ON EARTH, THE HUMAN IS NOT PERFECT, ONLY GOD HAS THE RIGHT AND RESPONSIBILITY OF ISSUES THAT EVERY STEP GIVE AND I ASK THAT YOU RESPECT TO A SPECIAL THAT HE IS NOT HERE TO DEFEND AND ALREADY HAD ENOUGH WITH ALL THAT IS THE PUBLIC IN NEWSPAPERS AND MAGAZINES, WOOD MAKE ENOUGH OF A FALLEN TREE THAT GAVE SHADOW OVER many people both inside and drying it outside, I know that for many of us MEAN AN EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW WHILE OTHERS SAY OTHERWISE, IN THIS WORLD THERE ARE MANY ARTISTS WHO WANT TO BRING THE LEVEL OF THE SAME FOR ALL THE YEARS HAVE IN THE WORLD OF MUSIC AND WE KNOW THAT ARE GOOD, NOT THAT WE PUT IN DOUBT, WHAT IS doubt have the courage dedication, RELIABILITY, sweetness and the tenderness that he inspired in every person he Help without getting anything in return. WE KNOW THAT MICHAEL left many things unfinished, and I know him, I WOULD LIKE YOUR FAMILY AND LAWYERS WHO TRUST IN ALL ITS ASSETS complete all their projects without any problems. We also know that the job really Artists Seeking a helping hand to help compose a song, And we know that several songs for WASTE YOUR RECORDS BECAUSE THE THOUGHT THEY WERE NOT SO PERFECT AND WE KNOW THAT THESE ITEMS ARE FROM VARIOUS COMPOSERS AND THAT SUCH time in a not too distant future all that stuff

Will michael jackson's "this is it" movie be available on dvd?? plz tell me!!!!lol
im soooooooooooooooooooooo going to watch it on the big screen but of course i still want to own it on dvd. Plz replyy Laughing out loud:D:D:D:D

Nós queremos ouvir Michael cantando, não importa se a música é dele, "meia dele" ou de outro compositor.... Nós te amamos mais a cada dia Michael!

I want to buy it. Hope it is available soon as a single release. I would like to hear the unedited version. Too bad Mr. Anka could not have taken care of his issues with the song quietly. A friend of mine looked up the patent and Michael's name is on it. No mention of Paul Anka. I think his last release was "You're Having My Baby"..... Things that make you go hmmmmm.

I think the song is great no matter when it was recorded. I just think Sony should be more careful in future releases to be sure not to run into arkward situations as it did with Paul Anka. Hey, it is MJ so I support it and will purchase it. Please take into account that we want Michael, just Michael and only Michael.

Michael is nominated for a few AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS for his Number Ones album. Show your support for Michael by Googling American Music Awards and vote for him in all categories nominated.

The people decide these awards so VOTE VOTE VOTE FOR MICHAEL. The show airs on Nov. 22nd. Michael is and always will be No. 1.

SPREAD THE WORD!

This collection, though I to be again, I know all the songs and I would love to hear Michael singing new songs. I love Michael and I'm sad because I could not know him personally, but for me Michael will always be the king of pop.

"This Is It" is the opportunity to meet Michael after all these years, he continued perfect.

"This Is It" will be the beginning of a world without Michael, but with Michael in our hearts.

Oh my God! I'm waiting each day to watch the movie "This is it". Michael, you always be the best! I love you

I really like this song! I look forward to more MJ unreleased songs. As fans, we have the opportunity to vote for MJ in several categories for the 2009 American Music Awards. Check it out at
http://cdn.abc.go.com/shows/american-music-awards/nominations

I already bought a ticket to see the movie, I'm anxious. We have bought books that talk about you, your CD's, DVD's ... You're a genius. I believe you're alive! I do not know where! You're not dead!!I love music This it. Ilove Michael jckson more!!!!!!!!!!!

NO NO NO dont boycott the album... Some people like remixes!!!!! MJ didn't release it, kept it locked up!!!!!! http://www.michaeljacksonvideoclips.com MJ's best songs are found here love frazzled

Okay, so we all know 'This Is It ' is an old track, and we know the brothers are on it in order to earn performance royalties. And yes, it's upsetting to think that what Michael considered an acceptable standard before a song should be publicly presented has clearly not been adhered to; but as far as musical legacies go, I don't think Michael Jackson's is in any danger. His catalogue, hits and musical ascendancy are peerless. His music transcends race, language and generations, more than that - it is, like Michael - immortal. There is nothing left for him prove. I say this to remind some of the fans who have posted on here ( and who I know in reality are only saying negative things because they are grieving so hard and wanted this release to be amazing ); - that the real battle is not with Sony, who, like any commercial company are naturally seeking to maximize their yield and profit.

It is important that we, as fans, remember Michael Jackson's estate ( which directly benefits his children) will receive 80% of the monies and profit share earned from ticket sales of the movie, the album, opus, posters, exhibitions and so on. The estate is by no means in the clear yet solvency-wise as there are a high number of debt claims and suits that have been made against the estate that need to be honoured. We must keep in mind the bigger picture. We, the worldwide fan community need to be organized, clear-thinking and ready to send any release of Michael's to the top of the billboard ( and any other ) chart to make sure Michael stays heard, recognized and relevant. Save your anger and your energy for those who deserve it. You know who they are. The real battle lies in making sure that those who hurt and adandoned, slandered and ultimately contributed to the degradation and erosion of Michael's joy and spirit while he lived; do not now profit from his death. I am of course talking about Rabbi Shmuley, Ian Halpern, Nancy Grace, Diane Dimond, Gloria Allred, Martin Bashir and Tom Sneddon. Redirect your rage and your anger away from Sony who are simply doing what all record giants do, and instead let us join together and boycott Shmuley's book. There is no need to buy it, it is available for download on this very site.
The fight for Michael continues. Here is how you can help:

1: You can write a letter AND an email to Congresswoman's Lee's office in support of Resolution 600 - the proposal that seeks to have Michael honoured as a global humanitarian and musical legend:

The email address at Lee's office is: Shashrine.Thomas@mail.house.gov
( Congresswoman Lee's point of contact in her office. )

Postal address is: F.A.O Congresswoman Sheila Jackson-Lee
Washington Office
2160 Rayburn Building
Washington D.C 20515

2: Email Spike Lee who is championing Michael on his site: 40acresandamule.com

3: Lobby Mary A Fischer to write a new expose of her findings about the non-validity and lies behind the 1993 allegations Michael faced at: info@ maryafischer.com

4: Lobby Thomas Mesereau to add his considerable legal expertise to the worldwide movement for vindication of Michael's name re the 1993 allegations by emailing him at: info@mesereauyu.com

All communication with the above must be spell-checked, articulate and professionally set out, in order for it to be taken seriously. Simply state that you wish to be involved in the growing worldwide movement for Vindication of Michael's name as regards the allegations he faced during his life, and you also wish to add your name to the lobby for the passing of Resolution 600. These people need to know there is a worldwide groundswell of public opinion out there that supports the work they are already doing. These are the places where we should be applying our energy and our justified outrage, not Sony.

Finally:

" We, the worldwide fan community who love, respect and honour Michael Jackson are united in our defiance of Shmuley's act of betrayal. We do not support this book in any way. It is a total violation of Michael's right to privacy and we believe the publication of the content of these tapes to be a breach of the trust Michael placed in Shmuley. We, the worldwide fan community will not join Shmuley in his betrayal and we will not help him profit from his deception of Michael. Not only will we not buy the book, we also send a clear message to all others who seek to attack the truth, beauty and integrity of Michael's memory. This statement is a declaration of our intent. We, as a community will not support or tolerate any such attacks, but will actively protect Michael's legacy and rights - not only for Michael and his children who survive him, but for all of us who choose to honour what Michael achieved, endured and gave here. He lives whenever and wherever he is remembered. And we choose to remember him with love. "

All of us can now play our part in refusing to allow Shmuley, or anyone else for that matter, to distort the truth of Michael's beauty, innocence and integrity.
We will be there now.

Please vote for Michael now to sweep the Board at the American Music Awards:

http://cdn.abc.go.com/shows/american-music-awards/nomination

p.s If you have problems logging onto the abc site ( as you will need to do this before you can vote) just message me at my profile and I will be happy to help you regarding this and/or anything else. Also, everyone, please do NOT advise anyone on this site to vote for Michael with multiple emails or false names to vote for MJ at the AMA'S. Please note, it is not only fans who view this site, this is a record company site and journalists also view it. Any hint of vote-rigging will invalidate Michael's vote. Lets trust that the millions of us out there will vote for Michael, and that he will win big - as he deserves to.

Thankyou.

3: Lobby Mary A Fischer to write a new expose of her findings about the non-validity and lies behind the 1993 allegations Michael faced at: info@ maryafischer.com

4: Lobby Thomas Mesereau to add his considerable legal expertise to the worldwide movement for vindication of Michael's name re the 1993 allegations by emailing him at: info@mesereauyu.com

All communication with the above must be spell-checked, articulate and professionally set out, in order for it to be taken seriously. Simply state that you wish to be involved in the growing worldwide movement for Vindication of Michael's name as regards the allegations he faced during his life, and you also wish to add your name to the lobby for the passing of Resolution 600. These people need to know there is a worldwide groundswell of public opinion out there that supports the work they are already doing. These are the places where we should be applying our energy and our justified outrage, not Sony.

Finally:

" We, the worldwide fan community who love, respect and honour Michael Jackson are united in our defiance of Shmuley's act of betrayal. We do not support this book in any way. It is a total violation of Michael's right to privacy and we believe the publication of the content of these tapes to be a breach of the trust Michael placed in Shmuley. We, the worldwide fan community will not join Shmuley in his betrayal and we will not help him profit from his deception of Michael. Not only will we not buy the book, we also send a clear message to all others who seek to attack the truth, beauty and integrity of Michael's memory. This statement is a declaration of our intent. We, as a community will not support or tolerate any such attacks, but will actively protect Michael's legacy and rights - not only for Michael and his children who survive him, but for all of us who choose to honour what Michael achieved, endured and gave here. He lives whenever and wherever he is remembered. And we choose to remember him with love. "

All of us can now play our part in refusing to allow Shmuley, or anyone else for that matter, to distort the truth of Michael's beauty, innocence and integrity.
We will be there now.

EMINEM is also nominated in categories with Michael and we all know how he MADE FUN OF MICHAEL and how much that hurt Michael per his interview with Geraldo. So, I personally won't vote for EMINEM in any category.

FOR THOSE THAT ARE BOYCOTTING ABC - These awards are about Michael. Even if you don't watch the show, please vote for him to WIN. This is about his Legacy as the King. Show the world that even in death - no one is better than Michael.

Michael needs ALL your votes so SPREAD THE WORD - FACEBOOK ETC.

How about the MJ estate giving the profit of "the estate" from this single to charity?
Since the release of this song is against his will, Michael would be happy if this will help children in the world. Let's show the class!

Friends: I mean I think a big mistake this concern of "new music to release, or be old ..." after all, this is just the same format it, and his voice too. Anyway, I LOVED THE MUSIC!! I just think the family should be more concerned about the disclosure because after scandals, just what Michael has.

I was really excited upon hearing the song..i loved it the first time i heard it played on the radio..but after learning that it was actually been 1st recorded years back by another artist, i was kind of disappointed not with Michael but with sony and the estate administrators. They should have known better..knowing Michael as being perfectionist and everything, he would not have allowed it to be released just because it was the same title as his supposedly comeback tour. Sony & the administrators really messed up big time with this. I hope next time they will act more responsibly because thats what Michael wants them to be and the reason why they were hired in the first place. Michael was and still the greatest artist of all time..i miss him terribly..and i do hope that his legacy will be handled with extra care and much respect..We love u more MJ.

Dear friends at Sony,

You are the best

The best to always get Michael Jackson's good name and reputation in trouble.

The best to always get MJ's fans dissapointed.
(ohhh... remember: by listening this song, the world was to know "once again, [...] that Michael is one of God's greatest gifts"... how sweet from you! Thanks for letting us know that again!)

The best to always imply one thing while actually doing another.
(Yes!! A "brand new song" recorded more than 20 years ago and realeased several years ago, but who cares! No one will notice!!)

The best to keep track of your own stuff.
(Woowww... founding unreleased songs in "boxes" labeled "This is it" is really a great lesson for every person trying to keep things in order. I wonder what other boxes you might have over there... any one called "Greed" or "Lies"?).

The best to put highly skilled people to manage your business.
("Oh... no, we have no idea when this was recorded... actually, it might have been co-written by Bubbles and Louis the llama! Well, who cares? Let's just get the money!").

The best to always make the most terrible mess and tell biggest lies AND keeping your big name clean... while DESTROYING Michael's.

No doubt, you are the best.

But you are not BETTER than Michael Jackson. You wished so bad you could have any of his new songs. But you don't. And you know Mike DOES have new songs. La la la la la

LoveU LESS, SONY!!!

Michael Jackson how much I miss you!! I wish that you can come back again one day, but it’s impossible.

This new song , “THIS IS IT” is going to be my dearest song , because it’s the last song that you made for us. We’re not going to hear another new song sang by yourself , cause you’re gone.

- I miss your voice
- I miss your performances
- And I miss your presence

Michael you were made to be a performer. Life is empty without you!!

- The world needed your presence because you made us happy
- You fulfilled our lives with your unique and angelic voice
- And with your smile coming straight from your heart

Michael you were a SPECIAL GIFT from GOD for us.

Nice song Michael and I love you SO much!!
Miss You!!

I don't know what to think...already pre- ordered the album, what, last week...could cancel, but I won't. No, Michael probably wouldn't have released this song, at least not like it is...but it is a nice song. It's not the mind blowing kick in the face we wanted..and yes all they want is our money...but at this point I'd be happy just listening to a track of him breathe for three minutes....I know...but that's how I feel...
Love and miss you MJ

This song could have been a number one for Michael, now with all the controversy, especially the media are going to ruin this, they will not let Michael alone.
I don't understand why the family would want something out there that is obviously not perfected by Michael, it was a decision because that is the only song they could find in the vault that had the words "This Is It". They just figured it would tie in with the movie title; etc. I agree with others that if Michael wanted his brothers to sing backup he would have done it hiself. Gos I hope the the family, estate and the executors of the will do not let this cintinue, where is Jermaine? I thought he would stand up for Michael's legacy.

WE CAN'T LET SONY, THE ESTATE OR WHOEVER IS IN CHARGE TO RUIN MICHAEL'S LEGACY,
MICHAEL WAS A PERFECTIONIST AND THIS SONG IS JUST NOT UP TO MICHAELS STANDARDS. THERE WAS A REASON HE NEVER FINISHED IT.

LETS HAVE SOMETHING THAT MICHAEL WOULD WANT US TO HAVE COMPLETED AND PERFECTED, BY HIM......IT'S NOT HONORING HIM TO PUT MUSIC OUT THERE THAT HE WOULD NOT WANT OR IS NOT FINISHED.

I WOULD RATHER JUST HERE THE RAW UNCOMPLETED MUSIC, AT LEAST WE WOULD NO IT WAS SOMETHING HE WAS WORKING ON AND PERFECTING FOR US. I JUST DON'T WANT THEM TO RELEASE A BUNCH OF HIS SONGS THAT ARE STUDIO FILL INS. BECAUSE 'THEY THINK IT SOUNDS GOOD"

OH MICHAEL, WHY CAN'T SOMEONE STEP UP FOR YOU?????

I THINK IT'S SO UNFAIR WHAT THEY WILL DO TO YOUR LEGACY.........

LOVE YOU FOREVER...........

Do anybody know for sure how old the song is? It dosen't sound new unless it's recorded this whay on purpose... I don't know what to belive, I was happy yesterday, today I'm sad...

Love Anja (Denmark)

I have been listening to this is it, and I have been a real Mike fan for 16 years now but this song is s***!!! this NEVER would have even been released if MJ were alive! The only reason this song ever was released was because Mike sings"this is it, here I stand........etc" and the movie is called This Is It because the concerts were called this is it. THIS IS NOT A NEW SONG, Mike by the sounds of his voice recorded it early to mid 80's and didnt release it because it is s***!! Sony were is What More Can I Give? or Hold My Hand? at least they are decent songs!!! I heard that sony are going to release Mike songs"sparingly" so that means that we will get one unreleased song with a new greatest hits compilation every few years. I urge all MJ's fans to boycott this coming album or the next single will be Cant let her get away take 31 - but even that would be better then this is it!!!!

I thought the new song would be released as a single , obviously i didnt understand it properly:( Its a shame that is not. Michael always said you only can put 15 or 16 songs on cd and that is not enough, i wonder what would he say if he knew that the second "this is it " cd is coming out with only 3 songs and a poem:( i find this heartbreaking,, Love you Michael,,,

Wow thats a great song but I didnt expect anything else from Michael. It did make me cry though but thats ok as well as Ive cried every day since he died. What also made me cry was the disgusting way Sony is making this track available to fans!! Please release this as a single so I can buy it otherwise, like most of his fans I would think, I wont be buying the double cd. As a MJ lifelong fan I, and all his other fans, have the other tracks over and over and as great as they are I dont want them again and will not be buying them just to get one track. HELP!!
I was hoping some other unreleased singles of MJ`s (and there must be 100`s come on) would be on here too. Very disappointed!! for me, his fans and for MJ himself as I think sales are not going to be what they could have been. ITS NOT GOOD.
