Music: This IsIt

Michael Jackson's new and last(?) single is finally available to hear. go to www.MichaelJackson.com or, ya know, youtube and have a go at it.

Okay, let me just say because the guy died doesn't mean I'm about to give it a great review, so fans, get ready to swallow this bitter little pill.

1987 Cheesy TV Show Theme Song came to mind in the first 5 seconds of the song. Catchy? Yes. Addictive? No. It's a decent song and probably would have been a hit, if it were released back in the day (you know before I was born).

I can smell the dust on this track and it's unsettling. I can't say I hated the song but with all this freaking hype and never-ending publicity for it, I was expecting it to sound fresh and new.

I swear I've heard this before on Alf.
