I was thinking about the line that is underlined... "I don't give in until I get exactly what I want"... don't you think that it means that this album "Michael" is exactly what Michael wants? That's why it's been leaked over the internet before it's official release... :?:
I do agree that this is a hint that he wanted this album just like this. I also just noticed that it is underlined in a different pen than the note is written in. Normally, if you underline something as you jot it down, wouldn't you use the SAME pen? Unless, you went back later and discovered that you wanted to point something out.
Also, I wonder if it could not refer to more than just this album. He wont' give in (return) until he gets what he wants (his goals accomplished)- which would go with the comment in TII that he will do it "in my own time."
