Michael Jackson's This Is It (2xCD)
Michael Jackson's This Is It features music that inspired Sony Pictures' forthcoming film, a behind-the-scenes look at the performer as he developed, created and rehearsed for his sold-out concerts that would have taken place in 2009 in London. Disc one will feature the original album masters of some of Michael's biggest hits arranged in the same sequence as they appear in the film. The disc ends with two versions of the never-released "This Is It." This song is featured in the film's closing sequence and includes backing vocals by Michael's brothers, the Jacksons. Disc two offers previously unreleased versions of some of the artist's classic tracks. This disc also features a touching spoken word poem from Michael Jackson entitled "Planet Earth" that has never been heard before. The two-disc This Is It is a stand-alone companion to the motion picture and includes a 36-page, commemorative booklet featuring exclusive photos of Michael from his last rehearsal.
