We are the world remake

[Hollie]

Hey guys I tried to post earlier from my iPhone and I dont think it worked but hey I'm gona have to try again from here as I'm in study ATM.
Anyway this morning I was watching the news and they were talking about Haiti and reporting about it then they went on to say about the new version of the famous song we are the world being re recorded soon. Then they showed a clip of the old version and just had the part zoomed in showing MIchael Jackson. They went on to say that the new version will include the voices of michael Jackson, liniol richci, celien dion ect I was like huh. Anyone find this weird? And surely if they were just using a recording from the old one someone somewhere would have to sign a contract who's close to mj and give them the rights to use it.?
What do you think.

I think we have to listen good to the voice of Michael on the new version. You can hear a difference between Michael's voice then and his voice now.

Perhaps they received permission from the Jackson Estate. There lies control of MJ related things i.e. music and images.

I think I read an article stating that Michael recorded new vocals for the song, for the concert. Perfect timing.  :lol:

No wonder MJ was so seldom seen in recent years. He was just busy busy busy.  :lol:

Yep, really convenient isnt it, i too thought this strange that they can just take his songs and re-do them like that. copyright and all!! :mrgreen:

[steffmaster1]

hey guys this is impossible he would have sang live at show not re recorded ok background he might of used aswell but cum on he probably did this song and janets make me and this is it on that day he was seen in the recoding studio!! :lol:

[XspeechlessX]

And i wonder who came up with this idea...? Why his song..?
Anyone think this may be his way of donating to Haiti??

I mean sure he could donate anonymously but the aount he donates to charities... you think they would be a little shocked to get an anoymous dontation of a couple of millions... ?

Yes, there is an article I posted here that states they have the vocals from TII for this. He was supposed to sing it during the tour. The funny thing is there is NO mention of it in the movie, CD or the home versions. This was such an important song and it was left out. I find that very interesting. And now out of thin air we have vocals for remake. BAM! :lol:

But as I saw TII in the cinema, he sang Earth song...

It is possible that these vocals are from the recording sessions of the song.
Or maybe MJ made vocals years ago for a version of this song.
Or, I hope, may be he made these vocals this years, after june 25

So they couldn't use that version of TII because he sang the "What about us..."parts without this power to  to save his voice...

Right!  But why leave out WRTW if it was recorded? It would of made a great addition to the movie - but they saved it for now.
