Michael Jackson -- First Single Released

[jacilovesmichael]

It's definitely Michael, that's for sure.

One thing I'm confused about is why they did this song. It's a great song, but it's an older Akon song. I was looking forward to hearing a new song and I've already heard it before. Don't get me wrong though, MJ makes is worth listening to again. The lyrics are great and I agree with the statement about it being much like "Whatever Happens". Perhaps this is a msg to us to keep holding on. Rememeber, Akon has hinted before that he thinks Mike is still alive. Maybe he's better friends with Michael than we are aware of.

Akon returned to the studio recently to put the finishing touches on the track.

Well, Akon returned to the studio for some final touches to the track, but the predominant voice is that of Michael. :mrgreen:

That's such an amazing song. And in the picture I see a V above the holding hands and an M under the holding hands. V&M!

[voiceforthesilent]

So is everyone agreeing this sounds like MJ or still no?

Totally MJ to me! I LOVE this song - if it doesn't break records I'm going to be really mad!!!!

Oh wow there is a V!! LOL. And if you stare at it long enough it looks kind of like the V mask lol...or it may be just me thinking that but just stare at it for a bit and see what happens.

Michael Jackson 'Breaking News' Song Debuts Online

 Written by Akon and Claude Kelly, "Hold My Hand" was recorded by the Senegalese singer/rapper and Jackson in Las Vegas in 2007. An unfinished version of the song leaked in 2008, but Akon completed the final production of the track after Jackson's death.

 

"The world was not ready to hear 'Hold My Hand' when it leaked a couple years ago," Akon said in a statement. "We were devastated about it. But its time has definitely come; now in its final state, it has become an incredible, beautiful, anthemic song. I'm so proud to have had the chance to work with Michael, one of my all-time idols."

 

According to the release, it was Jackson himself who wanted "Hold My Hand" to be the first single on his next project, as expressed in a handwritten letter that is now is the hands of his estate.

Akon's contribution to "Michael" is not the album's only collaboration. The tracklist reveals that Lenny Kravitz is featured on the song "(I Can't Make It) Another Day," while 50 Cent makes an appearance on "Monster." Jackson served as a co-producer on the album's ten tracks.

Yes. Just like that disk of This Is It (song), with such convenient lyrics to match their motion pic, just happened to show up on someone's desk at Sony .

"Here, let's give them this old rag. With those lyrics, betcha they use it.... wouldn't that be a gas..."
