Here is an unreleased Michael Jackson song that was just released early Monday via his official website.
Later this month, the two-disc album Michael Jackson’s This Is It will be released to coincide with the worldwide release of the ‘This Is It’ motion picture, which arrives in theaters on October 28th and runs for a limited two-week engagement.
The album will also include a 36-page, commemorative booklet featuring exclusive photos of Michael from his last rehearsal. For full track listing and more info check the MJ official site.


Killin!
Love me some Michael. I love it. It’s another MJ classic. No other like him.
wasn’t expecting a ballad, but “i never seem to hear a word abouuuuuutt youuuu” go mike!!
Enjoyed this song its so Michael!! From the sound of this, definitely think he was on the verge of a awesome comeback
I love it!!! It kind of reminds me of “Girlfriend” from his Off The Wall album..Oh Michael..i miss you.
I soo love MJ. I hate that we lost him.
I heard this earlier..and I love it. Can’t wait to get the album, I wonder how much it’ll cost.
I love it, there is a part in this song that is very remeniscent of a section of “Why” with 3T
I got several tickets for the screening here in Hamburg and I’m gonna cry my eyes out when the credits start…still devestated
Love to all ya’ll from Germany
MJ, worldwide
Dave
This is going on repeat
Michael is the greatest forever
Why do I feel like I’ve already heard this??
@11 it just really sounds like michael’s style thats why it sounds so familiar because we always tend to compare many songs to him
OK, this is JUST MY OPINION because I’m a MJ fan way before Thriller phenomenon; let’s just say since the ’70′s. This song has a old school feel about it (sounds like one of the songs from the Jacksons “Destiny” album), but for some reason, he sounds a bit off key to me…his voice sounds off key. Michael NEVER sounded off key. Sounds like maybe he was singing the melody, but not really feeling the song. I always remember Michael saying that he has to really feel the song to believe in it. Michael is “missing” in singing “This Is It”. With that said, I admit, I’d purchase this because it is his final song. But it doesn’t sound like the Michael I’ve been used to hearing for most of my life. I can’t help but wonder how tired he must have been and really was trying to get this song right. *sigh* Rest in Peace MJ. I still can’t believe the man is gone…
Michael Jackson is the greatest entertainer of all time. When I go see that movie, I will cry the second I see his face on the screen. I love this song.
I love it! @ #13 I feel you. I will be crying too :’(
Oh Man, I love the song…its beautiful and its been on repeat since i first heard it like 20 mins ago lol….but the first time i played it i actually shed a tear, listening to new music from him…I still can’t believe he’s gone
RIP MJ
Beautiful song by an icon
@10 because you probably have, it was released by a singer named safire under the title ‘i never heard’ in 1991.
i think sony used the demo michael recorded, added a few new backing vocals, an updated track and changed the title to ‘this is it’
its a shame sony did this, michael was a perfectionist and he wouldn’t have wanted it this way, saying that however its always a joy to hear his vocals.
i really like this song… its smooth and it sounds like his style,,, and his voice sounds really good no sign of age.
this is a great song MJ will me missed by me and my whole fam. love you Mike this song is a classic to me already
Its just baffling to me as to why can Michael (as old as he was) put out such a good track like this …and Usher ; Chris Brown is still giving us bullshit….. (smh) …. bigs ups to the King (Michael Jackson – r.i.p.)
the best. still doing it after deathh yo. his legacy continues thru mee, believe that!
i really like the version the spanish sista did back in the day. it’s on youtube. i can understand the lyrics a lot better. michael’s voice is undeniable though…
yes Michael………. I Love…………..!!!!!!!!
I love MJ forever
I cant wait to see the movie
I know this is fire, and I haven’t even listened to it yet.
I don’t care if he came out singing knick knack paddy whack, that shit will be hot and I’d buy it!!
MJ all day!!!
classic michael.
Micheal voice is a one of a kind, rare and beautiful! I don’t like what Sony did to this track, it hasn’t got great production values… it was left of Dangerous album for a reason.
This song probably would `nt have received a lot of attention if it had been released during MJ` s life. But given the sad circumstances of his death and the sentimentality of this sweet song, I predict that it will become a hit.
Love it. I will be seeing This Is It in theatres hopefully I don’t burst out in tears. RIP MJ
Wow, I am honestly speechless..
I swear he STILL had it, age and all….the man still had it. You can’t listen to this track and not sit back like “Wow, this man is truly talented.”
I know some people never appreciated you while you were alive but I can guarantee they all are regretting every moment of it now. You know what they say is true, “You never know what you have until it’s gone.” You were such an amazing man Michael, we miss you so much. Rest in the heavens. You are an angel. ;(
Sounds like classic Michael Jackson. This man was a true artist and music genius.
I love it :’-)
MICHAEL JACKSON! That’s all I have to say!
Love it,more good songs from the best !MJ!
LOVE IT!! can’t wait to see this is it!!!
MJ Forever!
I MISS MY HUSBAND, REST IN PEACE MICHAEL! MICHAEL! MICHAEL!
Its a shame he gone. And remember a few days before he died this site was comparing him to Lady Gaga who wore it best and everybody was talking reckless. Although I take what all yall say with a grain of salt I still came here to hear his last song.
I’m going to be rinsing this track ALL DAY
I LOVE IT!! BUT IT SOUNDS THAT IT WAS RECORDED A LONG TIME AGO..
ANYWAYS, HE SOUNDS GREAT….AS USUAL
LOVE YOU MIKE!
i love it
can’t wait til the movie comes out!
R.I.P. Michael Jackson
I greatly miss Michael. I grew up eagerly awaiting his world premiere videos. He took videos and music to levels that have yet to be surpassed. I loved this man deep down inside. He was like a big brother that I never met. I always thought that he could and would never leave us. When I heard that he was in cardiac arrest, I dismissed it as oh he’ll be ok he’ll bounce back from that. I wish I could see him just one more time and hear him speak just once again. I wish he could be here to receive the love that his adoring fans are giving him. Many of us took for granted that he would always be here and didn’t show him the love that we should while he was living. Although I don’t know what other way to show him the love that I have except to be in mourning still to this day. I cry quite frequently because Michael was like a family member. I so loved this man. Michael will have to live on through song and video forever in my heart.
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
i still can’t believe he is REALLY gone….
MIIIIIIICCHHHAAAEEEEEELL! [balling uncontrollably]
I like this song… GO Michael it’s very classic!!!!!!
Have you heard the original of this song??? MJ wrote but Safire sung back in 1991!!!! Wow! “THIS IS IT” on YT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyPguc99MAc
Missing MJ. Loved to hear his voice again.
wish that he could have fulfilled his world tour
This is a nice song. Words are nice…”I’m the light of the world.” He sure was.
This IS It….
“I’m the light of the world…” No you are not. Shame on him and anyone who supports this blasphemy.
THIS IS REALLY “IT”…DAMN….RIP MJ
I like it ready for the movie!
Good song, can’t wait for the dance single to come out though…
@ 47, LOL Matthew 5:14 “You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.”
@ IN LOVE WITH LETOYA LUCKETT
John 8:12 “Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, ‘I am the light of the world. I f you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.’ ”
That is what I was referring to, but I respect your knowledge of the Word. God bless.
Perfect, I will be buying 10 copies
@ LIJAH. So was the other person’s verse wrong??? Do you still feel its blasphemy? What was your point exactly. . .Advise. Thanx!
We are missing the soul of music, and we regret it until it was gone, once in a lifetime we have someone like MJ, that song is already classic already, and we regret that we never got a chance to make him happy in life and he always felt sad in his eyes, we need to keep him alive in his music and our hearts. He’s smiling right now that we do love him and we never got to tell him, make this song #1 again for him!!! Luv you MJ!!
LOVE IT! It is my understanding that they took Mike’s Demo and his Brothers (the entire Jackson Brothers) came in and did background vocals on it. They could have mixed it a bit better but nonetheless – I miss him so much and am awaiting seeing the movie. The first time to get my grief out and the second time to just enjoy the man!
Yall always talking about we did this and that to him. Please stfu. I never met the man. he never knew i existed on this earth. If anything it was his fault for associating himself with them damn kids. He aint learn his lesson the first time and he had to pay for it the 2nd time which is probably why he is dead. MJ did what MJ wanted to do and I don’t see anyone else to blame but himself. If he aint have a childhood he still had other things and you don’t always get everything you want in life. I never had a father but you don’t see me hanging out with grown men trying to recreate a father.
