I know this is for a good cause, but this steaming pile of #### has a good chance to go down as one of the worst hits of all time.
Bringing out the ghost of Michael Jackson - how exploitative can this be?

Bringing out the ghost of Michael Jackson - how exploitative can this be? i tried to listen to this and cringed ant how much they butchered the original,the original had heart and passion this one has none,it feels computerized and cut/paste as many artist as u can on 1 record and now i know why rob thomas didn't take a solo part lmao! if this hits top 40 and collective soul's "you" doesn't,i think its time to create a new format again lol,something in between hot ac,aaa,ac,chr pop and into what hot ac was. could there be just a pop rock top 40? |

Rob Thomas tweeted that he was honored to take part in this. He said that he was going to do a solo part but have to leave to catch a plane to Australia. I'm pretty sure he would have been honored to sing a solo part. I still haven't heard the new version but I don't get all the flack (mostly it appears on these boards from MJ fans) about them using the song again. Oh well, you can never please everyone. |

Of course he had to fly to Australia. Now, this is ironic, as it helps his stature in my eyes.
In regards to MJ fans hating on the song, well, I have to say that I'm hardly an MJ fan, and I hate this song. Actually, given the widespread lack of love for this song, I don't think you can categorize the people who hate this song at all.
And I don't see how you can defend it as you apparently haven't heard this tune yet.
