Also he's teasing big news coming up. Maybe a MJ Feature on the record?

What a lovely song, modest and knowing. And a little "Low Rider" just to confirm he's still one cool mofo.

Yeah, I like it a lot. Those 16 seconds or so on Instagram don't do the song justice.

Dang, I was about to buy the very reasonably priced vinyl and CD combo on preorder but the shipping almost doubles the cost. Ah, well. Good first tune, an album I'll enjoy digitally when released.

Yeah that song is great

Would they have to pay royalties for that low rider bit as its very blatant and instantly recognisable ?.

I don't think he should have to, but I'm no lawyer. The intent to me sounds like a nod, not an effort to steal.

The chorus very much reminds me of Suggs/Madness. Pleasant little tune.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Would not surprise me at all if it was an MJ co-write.
