Gettin' my CD on the 13th!

Well, I listened, let it marinate and listened to each song again, alternating between the original and the updated versions. Keeping in mind that these songs were recorded before Michael's passing, I have to say I think everyone involved...their first priority was to honor and respect Michael's vision, his work and his wishes when making this album. His voice and lyrics remains its beautiful, original sound in both versions with only the music being enhanced in the updated version and adding a bonus version with JT.

Deluxe or Demo...I LOVE THIS CD!

(I only wish it was in a plastic case instead of the cardboard.)

The official video for "Love Never Felt So Good" It's well done, but it has me balling like a baby. Stark reminder that all we have left is "footage" . My heart feels like it's been ripped out all over again. The pain is always so close to the surface.

OK, I know it's true. This is bittersweet. But after see MJ One, I have to ask myself:

Did Michael give his blessings for Cirque du Soleil? It was my understanding that it was one of his unfinished projects, but one that he was excited about.

Would it be better to never hear his music again, or see his image? For me, these last few years have been horrible. Sure I played all of his music and bought anything I wanted for my collection, but something was missing, besides the fact that Michael was no longer on this earth. You rarely heard anything on the radio, there were no CD's in the stores, and no one was restocking shelves with any of his music. There were no magazines to buy. Nothing. Almost as if he no longer existed outside of my room, or my car. His death, the trials, the family fighting...all negative. Then nothing. It just broke my heart. This wasn't acceptable. Michael's music should be heard. Negativity should not be the last thing published about Michael because Michael never gave up. We have a new generation that needs to know about this lovely man. Now this new album is out, and there is a new feeling in the air. There seems to be a sense of joy. People seem happier. A few co-workers expressed their happiness in being able to buy new Michael music. There are new commercials with two of the songs from the album, ads in magazines and billboard had a cover on their magazine last month. Slowly, I think the genius that Michael was...that Michael is... will be remembered more then the negativity the media presented. But we have to help that happen.

Is a hologram something Michael would have created? Michael was always trying something new...raising the bar...learn from the best and be better. A hologram is something I think Michael would have eventually created himself.

We can make a choice. Don't buy the album because it's Sony....or the kids don't get the money....or it's not what Michael would have wanted...etc.... OR we can embrace the positive... Xscape... Michael's music. We, the fans can make this album SOAR!!

Correction: This performance witll be deleted.

OK...Amen.

No, I'm sorry Tech. I may have given you the wrong impression. I know without a doubt your love and loyalty to Michael. This is and always will be a safe place for you to express your feelings. Please forgive me. I was not directing my rant at you personally. I was just thinking out loud. ("I ask myself...") It's all good, girl.

I hope you do go to both shows. They are very good and somewhat different. The love and respect for Michael is very evident and touches your heart.

Right now I am reading a book about Michael called the Broken Heart Stone. It is not a well written book, but it is a true story. Have you heard of this book?

So I just watched the MJ hologram performance. Watching was like expecting to eat something amazing then finding out it has too much salt. IDK. I am just not satisfied. The face looked like E Casanova, the impersonator. It was off. I know it's a computer program, and in no way was I expecting perfection. Perfection has been gone for almost 5 years... I was expecting something better than what was presented. The body was good. It looked tangible seemed a little shorter than MJ. But the face ruined it.

[mitajo]

I agree, the face was off and "he" had on earrings. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Michael didn't wear earrings. I was disappointed. I don't think I will even keep this recording.

Laura asked me to record it for her. Once she sees it I am deleting it too.
