Shocking Discovery in "MICHAEL" Booklet

[MJmakesmespeechless]

Okay so i decided to actually read the booklet that came with MICHAEL from cover to cover and i noticed this Michael Durham Prince guy in it...he sings backup in several of the songs and he is also one of the archivists of the estate. Dont you find this strange? Has he ever worked with Michael before this album? Of course he did something with This is It didnt he? Who is he? Where did he come from?
Oh and this Mischke fellow as well...who is he?
Strange that is all.Anyone else care to add anything more?

[whatyourheartsays]

i saw this man worked on This is it as "audio supervisor"...

How i read the thing :

exemple :
Behind the Mask
Lead &backgroung vocals : Michael Jackson
= voice is Michael Jackson

Best of Joy / Hollywood Tonight / The Way you love me
Vocals RECORDED by : Michael Durham Prince (and Mischke)

If the voice was Michael Durham Prince or Mischke it should appear the same as for "Behind the Mask" and say "lead and background vocals : Michael Durham Prince

What i understand is that Michael Durham Prince is the one who RECORDED the voice of whoever was singing.

The way it is written is confusing (is there anything not confusing in that story ?)

As you can notice, "Much too soon" as no indication of voice either it's MJ or not, same for Hold my Hand...The ONLY song which has clear info about the lead vocal is Behind the Mask.
To me, the way they wrote "vocals recorded by" is just a credit for the technical part of RECORDING the singer's voice, as audio supervisor.

BUT it also makes me think that the whole album has a message when you realise that the only "LIVE" and official MJ's voice, is on a song called "Behind the Mask"  :roll: Says it all  to me !

[whatyourheartsays]

I believe that the "vocals recorded by" simply refers to the person who recorded the track (ie. the person who was working the recording equipment), not the person who is singing on the track.  Notice in this section of the booklet that when it states Vocals or Background vocals it doesn't mention the word "by", but rather Vocals:  Michael Jackson; Background Vocals:  Michael Jackson.  So I think that Michael Durham Prince just recorded Michael Jackson singing during the recording sessions for those songs.

i missed your post, but i agree 100% with your idea, i think just the same :lol:

So he only worked on TII and the new album? Typical.

That man reminds me of the guy who played Murdoc in the tv series Macgyver. He was Macgyver's arch enemy who kept coming back from the dead to try and kill him.  

Creepy. lol

I did notice something in the booklet that was wrong though.  It's the lyrics to Hollywood Tonight.  Second verse..."She's giving hot tricks to men just to get in, she was taught that that's not clean, she's only fifteen"
In the song it isn't "she's only fifteen", it's "she's headin for the big time that means".
I don't really understand what happened there.

Yikes!

Wow  :?  err. Interesting.

Maybe JANET? Could be....the little handwritten note in the booklet says that it is inspired by a true story

Exactly my thoughts. Thanks for clarifying. Michael is the LEAD vocalist on ALL the songs as far as iam concerned

Isnt it strange this guy's first name is Michael as well and Prince is his last??? Weird!

[MJonmind]

I still think this is the same guy only older, and reversed. Brown to blue eyes easy, same one eyebrow up.
Edit, well maybe not. :?

( I really think some clever make-up and/or photoshop artists took their hand in this..)

I am also wondering why this album has such a simple name just:: MICHAEL: ,and i thought MJ would pick a more special name for the album.I dont know what to think but i love every song of it and i play it almost everyday ...i am also a big STEVIE WONDER listener / fan .... 8-) I havent read the Booklet yet but i will do it if i have more time...

I believe using the very familiar "Michael" instead of both names, denotes how lovingly   familiar his fans ARE with Michael Jackson, after 45 years. It is an endearment; the album is (marketed as) a bittersweet gift from someone we knew and loved (even though, we also KNOW he IS still alive   ). I don't think it is meant to be anything deceitful or hoax-related (as a "clue!") in any way. Just for love.  8-)  

[Its her]

Just to be crystal clear, I meant that the use of only Mike's first name as the album title, MICHAEL (without stating which "Michael",  :oops: doi) was not a subterfuge.

Make no mistake :!: It may be marketed as a gift to his fans, but we KNOW the entire album itself, is simply STUFFED with delicious clues about this Hoax!    :lol:
