I'm over the slow reveal of tracks, maybe it could be fun. We all know now that we will have a need meeting point each week! I think I'm after allowing my hopes to be raised a bit by the inclusion of Greg's "Behind The Mask" at the MJ One event last night, I know I'm setting myself up for disappointment! Actually respect77, do you mind telling me where you ordered the SACD (if you did?). It seems there are very few .eu websites selling it and I can't order from the US or UK because Ireland re-entered the 30's with our post system. I haven't ordered anything yet. I'm planning to order either the MoFi or the SACD but haven't decided yet which one. So is the SACD more rare? Maybe I should aim for that then. LOL.

Yeah, I've had my eye on the older ones for years but they are all like €150+ so I don't really mind dropping €50-€60 on it!

I think it was aazzaabb who said he considered buying the MoFi also as a kind of investment, knowing that their price goes up over time. However with the recent MoFi scandal and Thriller being released in 40,000 copies (when usually it's just a couple of thousands for MoFi releases) it makes it questionable whether the price of this one would go up over time. So if the SACD more rare/more difficult to get/not affected by the scandal, I'm thinking it could work better as an investment.

I never left negativity lol . I still care more than I should though and I need to just not care at all when it comes to what they're doing I feel. Same mate. It’s quite difficult for us because we are also into other artists and we see the love and detail that goes into other releases. Recently I’ve let go of caring so much about the MJ estate and am just trying to take the positives but sometimes you just can’t help but wonder “what the actual fuck?!” *Reminds myself not to care anymore* I had a momentary lapse. 😂

Just hard to look past everything happening around it sometimes. (the estate, lol).

Disclaimer: I'm not sure what's the source of this and whether it's real. I did my own comparisons earlier and I think these guys are missing the Thriller Instrumental which was on the Thriller 25 Super Deluxe Edition (digital only) but I think it would be safe to suggest it will be very similar to the above. If true, here are the changes I'd make 1. Billie Jean (1981 Home Demo) Billie Jean (Original Album Version) 2. Billie Jean (Long Version) 3. Billie Jean 2008 (Kanye West Mix) Billie Jean - Pepsi Commercial Version 4. Beat It (Demo) 5. Beat It 2008 (with Fergie) Can't Get Outta The Rain 6. Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ (Demo) 7. Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ (Tommy D’s Main Mix) Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' 12" Mix 8. Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ 2008 (with Akon) Wanna Be Startin' Somethin2 (7" Mix) 9. Human Nature (7” Edit) 10. P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) (Demo) 11. P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) 2008 (with will.i.am) The Girl Is Mine (Demo) 12. The Girl Is Mine 2008 (with will.i.am) P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) (Instrumental) 13. Thriller (7” Special Edit) 14. Thriller (Def Thrill Mix) Thriller (Instrumental) 15. Thriller (Megamix)

It's fucking stupid. Stop treating the fans like piggybanks that you don't give two shits about and tell us the details of what you're asking us to put down money for. Put the tracklisting out and see if you can get some people outside of the fanbase interested. It's just insulting... as usual.

I’m happy enough with a disc of unreleased tracks but there always seems to be an element of amateur hour about their approach. It can all feel very kiddie compared to other legacy artists. Beatles fans will be getting a Revolver Deluxe boxset with everything, and MJ fans will be getting a once a week reveal of10 tracks that suggests they don’t even know themselves what their including. Why can they not just bring on board an MJ historian who’s a mega fan and knows what the fans want.

Let's just turn this into a revolver thread lol
