November 8th, 2010

Finally! New music from Michael Jackson has been released online. The song “Breaking News” is the first single from the late King of Pop’s upcoming posthumous album simply titled Michael. The collection, which arrives in stores on Dec. 14, will be the first set of new songs from Michael since his 2001 LP Invincible.

There’s already controversy surrounding the single, as the late singer’s family contends that the vocals heard on “Breaking News” are not Michael’s but from an imitator. After listening to the track, we have mixed feelings about it. Despite its dated 2007 production, its sounds like Michael is actually singing on the song. But we wanted to ask you this – Do you think it’s Michael’s vocals on the track? Leave your comments below.

Michael Jackson’s 1983 “Thriller” remains the most popular music video of all time: a 14-minute horror spoof that changed the business. Behind the scenes it gave its star a temporary home with director John Landis, sparked a near romance with actress Ola Ray, and revealed how damaged the young pop idol already was.

Vanity Fair has a nice piece on 1983 era Michael Jackson and the making of the “Thriller” video.
