More on Michael Jackson

If you thought the mania for unreleased material from the likes of Elvis, The Beatles, Jeff Buckley, Kurt Cobain and others was crazy, just wait until you see what happens with the Michael Jackson tracks we haven't yet heard.

People will be clamoring, yes, clamoring for any new Michael Jackson songs, no matter what stage they are in.
