And this coincides exactly with what some of us are discussing....about actually doing something together to make a change....putting words into action.Thanks Jackie for letting us know we are working together on this..
For those of you who don't know, Jackie released a new single on itunes today called, "We Know What's Going On." You can read more about here: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login I bought the single and typed out as much of the lyrics I could understand. I may have some of the lyrics wrong but I think they are pretty accurate. You can see that this song can definitely tie into the adventure. Unfortunately, I cannot upload the song from itunes to another format. For those of you in America, it only costs 99 cents so it doesn't hurt the wallet and it's pretty cool song. It has a euro pop sound to it and Jackie sounds pretty good in it.

This was on the site when I went there....Hmmm..L.O.V.E. Especially cuz u guys want more! And I've got so much more to share. Thanks for the L.O.V.E. you showed me for "We Know What's Going On". about 1 hour ago replyAll I can think about is the Jackson shows last year...wasn't it Jackie that didn't seem too interested in getting back into music? I've been amazed because they obviously have more desire than they let on in the show. Jermaine was the only one who seemed interested in performing. Interesting.
Funny that we didn't hear anything about this before today. The first solo single for Jackie in 21 years...featuring Michael...and no one knows about it until the day it's released on iTunes. And of course the title. We definitely know something's going on!
Can You Feel It" was a hit recording by funk and soul group The Jacksons, recorded in March 1980 and released on September 22, 1980 as the first track on their album Triumph.Written by brothers Michael and Jackie, the song featured solo leads by Randy and Michael. Released as a single in 1981, the song reached #77 on the pop charts and number thirty on the R&B charts in United States, but reached number six in the UK and number two in the Netherlands in 1981.[1]
Does anyone know if Jackie wrote the song or if it was written by someone else and then recorded by him? The reason I ask is because it is my understanding that Jackie doesn't write music but we all know that Michael does and this DEFINITELY looks familiar to MJ's previous writings and recordings. The message speaks volumes!!!!
