In a odd move, I actually listened to the radio today. It was like I was prescient or something because I got to hear Michael Jackson’s new, posthumous single This Is It. On first listen, it seemed like another MJ dud – sure his target audience may have grown older and become more mellow but the King of Pop still needs some pop in his singles.

I was going to write this blog to complain, but while I was researching I found out that MJ’s “new” single isn’t even new. It was originally written with Canadian Paul Anka and first recorded in 1991 – and guess what, it wasn’t Michael Jackson. I wonder if Sony really did screw up, because they couldn’t have thought that a single with this wide a release would get past the collective hearing of the internet generation…
