Fans of the late, great Michael Jackson will certainly have some cause for celebration. It has been announced that the last music video the King of Pop shot is set to be included in a new boxset.
Full story after the jump…
Jackson’s longtime label Sony Music, today announced the release of ‘Michael Jackson’s Vision’. Set to arrive in stores on November 22nd, the DVD includes all of the legend’s iconic music videos – as well as the unseen clip for 2003’s ‘One More Chance’ (a screen-shot from which is above).
Some may recall, it was on the set of this particular video (his last), that he was hit with false abuse allegations (which he was later fully cleared of). The release of the video however, which was to promote his ‘Number Ones’ compilation, was therefore scrapped.

————————————————————-
Any long-time visitor of the site can vouch for my stance as a major MJ supporter. Hence, to say I’m salivating at the prospect of finally seeing the ‘One More Chance’ video would be an understatement.
That said, it really is high time his estate/label find more creative ways to repackage/reintroduce his material to new audiences (and fans). How many of the same DVD/album/compilation are they going to churn out with one extra feature added on – with folk expected to still pay the same price? Don’t crap on the man’s legacy with shady tactics like that. Just don’t.
What do you expect from SONY
Ugh… please let that child molesting jacko rest in the ground for god’s sake!
YASSSSSS KING MICHAEL.! CHILDREN TAKE NOTE.!

Yeah, it’s called YouTube. Trust me, the video will appear on it one way or another. So you don’t HAVE to pay for the DVD just to watch one bonus video.
@robert .. the only person that was molested was you…by you father b****!!!! …… now why you pressed ..cos mj is shitting all over your favs?? cos mj is the reason for your favs existence? why you mad??? cos mj is the greatest that ever was and ever will be?? why you mad ??? cos mj had 200million people still tryna get tickets to his tour when it sold out?? why you mad ..cos mj floppest album still outsold your favs entire catalogue ?? why you mad?? cos even though they tried destroying him he still the most loved person??? why you mad ..cos over 1billion people watched his memoriall?? more than the f****** world cup?? why mad?? STAY THE F*** MAD!!!
……………
@ROBERT,
you shut the f*** up you stupid stinking b****! Go find a torn filled crooked stick to shove up your stinking ratty ass & gyrate on it. I hope your b*** hole bleeds an entire river by the time you’re done!
NOBODY IS CHECKING FOR HIM. REAL TALK #TRUTHHURTS
HIS BANDWAGON FANS ARE COMING IN 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 …LOL
People will forever be “checking for him.” That man is a part of history. Don’t act like you ain’t know.
Why is every artist or label trying to take advantage of Nicki’s release date?
@OKAY, are you serious? People will ALWAYS check for MJ!
Ive always wondered what that video would be like and now we FINALLY get to see it! Im excited!!!
@Diane
Honey they said 6 months ago before nicki even said anything that a new Michael Jackson album would be out in November so chill out. Aint nobody thinkin about that plastic b**** you worship.
Wow, I’m surprised that video didn’t leak already, cause I been heard the song. But I actually have to agree with Sam, there are numerous boxed collections and greatest hits packages on the shelves already, with all contents leaked onto Youtube already, that is such a waste of marketing. The unreleased video with be the ONLY reason some people will be stupid enough to buy it, only to find out a week later they wasted their money because it is already on the net. What happened to those plans of releasing those 100 locked up songs of his, I hope that isn’t scrapped. Now I’m starting to see what Michael was saying about Sony, they just want easy money off of him.
Damn, I’m truly shocked that MJ has non-fans! WOW!
Cosign! @ Team Weezy and they are really disrespectful
I love that pic of him. Fu*k anyone talking bad about Mike!
*chokes on apple juice *
Wait did I just read someone say that Mike Jackson’s label is trying to overshadow that insignificant LIL KIM wanna be? What is that a joke? Come on now lets be serious shall we?

@ Team Weezy:
I’d more or less categorize the clowns talking s*** about him as haters. Normally it’s a term I abhor because it’s so overused, but in this case it truly applies.
On December 29, 2009, the American Film Institute recognized Jackson’s passing as a “moment of significance” saying, “Michael Jackson’s sudden death in June at age 50 was notable for the worldwide outpouring of grief and the unprecedented global eulogy of his posthumous concert rehearsal movie This Is It.”
People will always “check” for legends. Whitney, MJ, Madonna, Prince, Aretha, Stevie, The Beatles, Elvis, Bob Dylan, Tina Turner, the list goes on.
LEGENDS NEVER DIE!! HATERS CAN SUCK D*** AND GET LOST 🙂

HATERS CAN KICK ROCKS!!!
MJ haters are actually his biggest fans. They are so consumed by him. They read about him, watch his videos on YouTube, watch his interviews, troll his websites, blog about him, talk about him. Hell some even buy his CDs just to write bad reviews on them. They’d buy a concert ticket when he was alive just to scalp them for triple the price to fans, then laugh about it. They are obsessed. Who needs fans when you got haters like that? So many people still feel threatened by a dead man LOL
@OKAY
“NOBODY IS CHECKING FOR HIM”? HUH? DO YOU CONSIDER THE “WORLD” NOBODY CAUSE THE WORLD IS DEFINITELY CHECKING FOR MJ.
HE GOT PEOPLE BUILDING STATUES OF HIM & ALL TYPES OF STUFF. SHUT UP.
http://www.china.org.cn/arts/2010-10/13/content_21117156.htm
@NOWWHAT
Do you think Beatles, Elvis Presley, Janis Joplin, Jimmy Hendrix, Madonna fans etc. of the new generation are “bandwagon fans” too??
Yall getting real pressed over a man who is 6 feet under.
Like Mike said “Is It Scary for You?”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ig0qKqwtCUc
I WILL BE FIRST AT THE STORE ON NOVEMBER 22ND
PUH-LEASE! They already made MJs life a living hell for no apparent reason when he was alive. Let him rest in peace, Jesus!
I wish they would stop trying to milk money out of MJ’s bones. Even in death, he can’t rest.
Michael will never rest as long as the leeches, backstabbers, hangers-on, media, and his own damn family collude to exploit his talent & genius which was largely unappreciated and undermined in the 2 decades before his death. Greed is an ugly beast. The love of money is the root of all evil!!
1985: MJ purchases the ATV music catalog for 46.5 million dollars
1987: MJ’s management & publicist start leaking false stories on him to the press (buying the Elephant Man’s bones, sleeping in hyperbaric chamber, stupid crap about Bubbles, etc)
1990: $ONY offers Michael a 100 million dollar record contract, pleased to have him for his ATV catalog, NOT for his talent & global success as an artist
1991-93: Tommy Mottolla starts challenging Michael over video budgets, song choices, promotions, and pressures him to merge his ATV catalog with $ONY
1993: Michael is falsely accused by Evan Chandler ( a bi-polar dentist/aspiring screen writer) who requested 20 million dollars from Michael to write another script. His request was denied and he became jealous over Michael’s increasingly close relationship with his wife June and son Jordan
1994-95 Michael’s INSURANCE COMPANY Lloyds of London settles the case since the Chandlers did NOT want a trial. Michael marries Lisa Marie Presley. Under the advice of his “then” trusted attorney John Branca (responsible for getting Michael the ATV catalog & the Pepsi endorsements) encourages Michael to merge the ATV catalog with $ONY. Michael agrees and sells 50% of the catalog.
2000
Tommy Mottolla tries to acquire the other 50% of the ATV catalog from Michael. Ofcourse Michael refuses deeply angering Mottolla. $ONY then forces Michael to fork over 35 million dollars of his own money for the production of his “Invincible” album.
2001
Invincible is released and $ONY (under Mottolla’s instruction) refuse to promote the album, forcing Michael into doing all of his own promotion, signing CDs at Virgin Mega Store in NYC, putting on a concert for his 30th anniversary in music including many high profile artists, etc. $ONY refused to promote his video for YRMW, fought against him over releasing songs he didn’t want released, refused to release his 9/11 charity single, etc.
2002
Michael goes on an anti-$ONY, anti-Tommy Mottolla media tour, expressing his frustration over their deliberate sabotage as a means to force his hand & have him sell his remaining 50% of the ATV catalog. Michael FIRES his attorney John Branca after realizing John was receiving money in an off-shore bank account from $ONY. BTW, John is a member of the $ONY/ATV board. Major conflict of interest.
2003-
Uri Gellar (backstabbing snake) a “friend” of Michael’s encourages him to do an interview with Martin BashiT (famous for interviewing Princess Diana before her death). Michael agrees and lets Martin follow him around for 8 months. Michael introduces a young cancer patient & his family who were hosted at Neverland due to their contacting Michael for “help”. Martin edits the documentary to make Michael’s behavior with the young male cancer patient look sinister. The documentary airs before Michael & his team have a chance to oversee the editing (as Martin had promised they would be able to do). It sets off a media firestorm. Child Welfare investigates Michael. The family denies any wrongdoing by Michael but changer their minds once they see an opportunity for money.
2005- Michael is subsequently arrested and charged for false accusations of child abuse, conspiracy to kidnap & extort money from the family (ridiculous)
2006-2007 Following the 5 month trial and acquittal, Michael’s finances crumble. Colony Capital, Thome Thome, $ONY, and other shady characters offer to “help’ Michael by leveraging his loans and purchasing Neverland.
2009- 2010 Michael signs a contract with AEG to do 10 concerts @ the 02 Arena. The contract is actually fraudulent and requires Michael perform 50 concerts (in small print) or sacrifice his 50% share in the ATV catalog and all other assets. Michael announces the concerts in May, then dies unexpectedly in June.
John Branca submits a FAKE will from 2002 to the courts and becomes executor of Michael’s estate along with John McClain. Both sell the rights for TII concert footage to **$ONY**. They also sell the rights to Michael’s unreleased music to $ONY for 250 million dollars. The executors now make an unusually high 11% off of Michael’s estate profits & have brokered the biggest deals with $ONY!!!!!
Rule 4080: Record Companies are Shady
YES KING MICHAEL JACKSON IS BACK! <3
@ ROBERT, How old are you, 2? I’m sorry, but you sound kind of stupid. Look at the facts before you start accusing people, thanks.
Long live Michael!!!
Tommy Motolla is the scum of the earth. I hope karma gets him one day.
Gosh I’m so over hearing about Michael Jackson. He’s just whatever ha… His death didn’t effect me in any way whatsoever lol.
DO YALL KNOW MICHEAL JACKSON SWAGGER JACK THE MOONWALK FROM BILL BAILEY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRjj7fLfpZM&feature=related
@HATERS STAY MAD
THE BEATLES are the Best Selling Artist Of All Time
Micheal who?
As a MJ fan for 40 years I cant wait to see a new video. Due to Michael’s will 20% of the money being made still goes to charity and most of the rest to his children so I dont mind paying for anything that involves him even though he is not with us anymore, Im not happy that Sony gets money from it but they promote for him and always have so nothing anyone can do there.
Some of you people are just stupid, you need to go read up and research before calling Michael a p********, he was never convicted and they never found any proof of anything, also the children involved couldn’t even get their story straight. Your just a media brainwashed fool, I am not going to rant all day your too stupid.
The Beatles were around for 10 years before Michael even started in the industry, Elvis was around for 20 years before he showed up. They are the only ones even in Michael Jacksons category and had way more time to accomplish what Michael had.
@NOWWHAT, if thats true that would make them the best selling group of all time…Michael would still be the biggest selling Individual artist…but im not that big a fan of the beatles, to each his own though.
Yasssss!!!!!!!! I can’t wait for this!!!! But seriously. How many times can SONY RE-release that same material that we all already had since we were kids??? I would love to support, but I really hate compilation albums, or greastes hits albums with one new song. I tend not to buy those.
“greastes” = greatest…LOL!!! 😆
I would want to buy to this in support of MJ. But, I do not want to support Sony.
Damn, let him R.I.P. already
There is no MJ DVD collection that has all his videos in one package.
You cant go to any store today and pick up a collection that has the prison version of They don’t care about us and Say , Say, Say in one package.
This DVD compilation is going to bring in some serious cash for the estate.
MJ Family is broke and I wonder who is getting all this money, I know his mother is getting money, but it is being issued out to her by an administrator over his estate.
I really don’t care how much money his family had, and I don’t care to hear about any of the negative stuff about the brother are what not, their are other family members that are going with out that could use this money. MJ is getting ripped off from the grave.
MJ RIP!
@NOWWHAT
MJ IS THE BEST SELLING SOLO ARTIST OF ALL TIME. GET OVER IT
@MICHAEL
October 14, 2010 at 8:53 am
Gosh I’m so over hearing about Michael Jackson. He’s just whatever ha… His death didn’t effect me in any way whatsoever lol.
@OKAY
Care to list off ALL the artists who swaggerjacked MJ. Didn’t think so.
@NOWWHAT
Michael STILL owns the Beatles catalog and he is the highest selling male pop solo artist in history. Now go cry in the corner.
@Michael
If Michael’s death didn’t affect you, that’s fine, you’re in the MINORITY. Besides, if you’re tired of hearing about him why the hell are you reading posts about him???
LOL indeed
MJ has nothing to prove. His estate profits already trump the the 33 year profits of the Elvis estate, the profits of John Lennon’s estate, need I go on?
I’ve always wanted to see the video for this song! Love you Michael.
omg real talent
YES, FINALLY SOME REAL MUSIC & *SHORT FILM* ARTISTRY. NOT GENERIC, STUDIO ENGINEERED, AUTO-TUNED SONGS ACCOMPANIED BY GENERIC OVERHYPED VIDEOS
ELVIS IS THE BEST SELLING SOLO ARTIST… MJ IS JUST A POOR MANS ELVIS.
Elvis daughter prostituted her self out to MJ for the tune of 5 million dollars, so if Elvis was so rich why did his daughter become a prostitute?
Scientology now own the rights to Elvis because the mother and daughter join and turn everything over to them, the rest is own by MJ estate.
MJ owns Elvis not the other way around.
RIP MJ
Thats not the point. Elvis has sold more.. and thats where it matters… Elvis has sold more.. and so owns mj.
@DANIEL
MJ OWNS ELVIS. HE ALLOWED “VIVA LAS VEGAS” TO BE USED IN A V***** COMMERCIAL 😀 MJ IS NOT A POOR MAN’S ELVIS, HE’S NOTHING LIKE ELVIS. HE WROTE MANY OF HIS OWN SONGS, PRODUCED, INNOVATED, PIONEERED. ELVIS SANG SONGS WRITTEN BY A BLACK MAN NAMED OTIS. HE WAS NOT A SONGWRITER, HE COULDN’T DANCE. ELVIS HASN’T SOLD MORE. HIS SALES ARE INFLATED. THEY’RE NO WHERE NEAR 1 BILLION
THIS VIDEO SAYS IT BEST 😀 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uC8LSV-j2g
THE BEATLES & ELVIS FANS ARE SO INSECURE. THEY ALWAYS HAVE TO *;LIE * IN ORDER TO MAKE THEMSELVES FEEL BETTER. #FAIL
EVERYTIME AN ELVIS SONG IS PLAYED OR USED IN A COMMERCIAL, MICHAEL JACKSON’S ESTATE MAKES MONEY HAHAHAHAA
BTW THIS POST IS NOT ABOUT THE BEATLES OR ELVIS. IT’S ABOUT MJ. YALL CAN STAY PRESSED OVER A DEAD POP ICON. JUST PROVES HOW GREAT HE WAS.
@BLUEKID
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO true. Lisa Marie Presley is a druggie w**** & she’s obsessed with MJ.
http://www.entertainmentwise.com/news/51681/Michael-Jacksons-Spirit-Talks-To-Lisa-Marie
I’m so glad Michael never swelled up to the size of a beached whale
I’m so glad Michael didn’t die on the toilet bowl eating a pork chop
I’m so glad Michael refused to take Liar Marie back (even though she kept following him around after the ’96 divorce)
Here’s proof

I’m so glad Michael bought the ATV catalog. His estate makes TONS of money off of songs by The Beatles, Elvis, Eminem, Bob Dylan, etc.
I’m so glad Michael was voted the #1 music icon of the past 50 years by cnn voters
MJ has the game on lock 😀
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfQRKCa1dD0 How it makes me smile
Thriller is the HIGHEST SELLING ALBUM OF ALL TIME. Enough said.
This Is It is the HIGHEST GROSSING CONCERT FILM OF ALL TIME. Enough said.
MJ fans could give a f*** about Elvis or The Beatles. They aren’t insecure.
Michael’s “Number Ones” album topped the Billboard charts 3 DAYS after his death
That BEATS THE RECORD
Elvis Presley’s “Greatest Hits” album which topped the charts 3 weeks after his death
John Lennon’s “Double Fantasy” album which topped the charts 2 months after his death
OMG I’LL JUST CAN’T WAIT FOR MICHAEL JACKSON’S UNSEEN MUSIC VIDEO. THIS LEGAND WILL ALWAYS BE MY HEART!!!
@Haters Stay Mad
GET EM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No other artist will ever compare!!!!!!! Not lady GaGa not Beyonce not even me! Hes not thd King of pop but the King of the World! Flat Out!!!!
@ HATERS ARE SO MISERABLE. I wanna know where i have lied.
Also.. why bring up it was a black man that wrote his songs… why make it about race?
ELVIS! “He is the best-selling solo artist in the history of popular music” Elvis owns Mj in sales.
There is the facts… now How can you say… Elvis down own Mj based on SALES!! which is all that matters.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elvis_Presley
@DANIEL
You think sales are all that matter LMAOOOOOOOOOOO
So I guess Madonna is the greatest female artist ever because she’s sold the most ??
Sales are NOT all that matter but just so you know. MJ sold more in the year after his death than any other artist who died over the past 2 decades 😀
http://msnbc.msn.com/id/37957972/site/todayshow/ns/today-entertainment
BTW DUMB ASS Wikipedia is *NOT* a reliable source!!!!!
MJ owns the rights to Elvis Presley’s songs therefore HE OWNS ELVIS
Read this article and WEEP!!! http://www.thewrap.com/media/article/business-michael-jackson-18669
@DANIEL
If you think sales are all that matter, you’re a dumb ass. Britney Spears, NSync, BSB, Rihanna, Spice Girls etc have sold millions of records. Does that make them the best artists? HELL NO!!!
Wikipedia is *NOT* a reliable source. Try again.
MJ owns publishing rights to Elvis Presley’s songs therefore HE OWNS ELVIS
This article says it best 😀
http://www.thewrap.com/media/article/business-michael-jackson-18669
Like I said, hater STAY MAD!!!! 😀
@DANIEL
This is NOT an Elvis Presley post!!
Since you’re so obsessed with sales
Jackson sells 35 million albums since death
NO OTHER MUSICIAN’S LOSS has created this kind of demand
http://msnbc.msn.com/id/37957972/site/todayshow/ns/today-entertainment
Michael Jackson’s estate made 1 BILLION DOLLARS in 1 year. Elvis Presley’s estate took 33 YEARS to do that!!!!!

This is NOT an Elvis Presley post!!

@DANIEL
Michael Jackson had sold 205.5 million albums before his death plus many millions more in singles and downloads.
It is an impressive total, and SECOND ONLY TO THE BEATLES
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124760651612341407.html
@DANIEL IS PRESSED OVER MJ So what if Mj owns elvis songs now… Your getting away from the fact that his sold more then Mj… plus in 100 years time.. people wil look back on how much artist of sold back in the day…. and spice girls did sell a lot cause they were liked and connected with a certain market.. you cant just say the sales dont matter just cause they appealed to the under 15’s
Im hardly mad.. at the end of the day.. the figures speak for themselves.. its The beatles… Elvis and then MJ in that order… in the sales.. thats all that matters….. you cant say no different.. im happy:)
@stup up.Yeah, people have brought a lot of his music after his death..but you expect that…. when a big name in music dies… when paul mccartney dies.. all the beatles albums will be selling loads again
The boy who made that claim has since said it was a lie. This has been confirmed by his circle of friends….and has made the rounds on the internet…old news now ….maybe pay attention from now on?
In addition….the settlement offer was initiated by the prosecution, not the defense….no one seems to focus on the implications of this fact.
@DANIEL
You still mad since you came in here discussing Elvis on an MJ post
Like the Wall Street Journal said, MJ sold MORE than Elvis, not the other way around. Get a life.
You seem insecure or upset by this fact. Nobody on here gives a f*** about Elvis.
@DANIEL
Which part of this do you not understand???
Michael Jackson had sold 205.5 million albums before his death plus many millions more in singles and downloads.
It is an impressive total, and SECOND ONLY TO THE BEATLES

This woman is friends with Lisa Marie & worked for Elvis.
At least she could be honest about the difference in response to Michael’s death

I’m glad the newer generation voted Michael Jackson the best OVER the Beatles & Elvis on a CNN poll, MySpace poll, and various others. His legacy is being kept alive by younger people as well, not just old archaic folks still stuck in the 50s & 60s.
ELVIS IS THE BEST SELLING SOLO ARTIST… MJ IS JUST A POOR MANS ELVIS.
That right there is the comment of a hater. MJ did more for black artists and music in general than Elvis ever did. Elvis was a poor man’s Chuck Berry/ Muddy Waters 😀
Im not hating.. just saying that Elvis sold more records.. you people just cant deal with that fact… bitter i think is the word. Elvis is the best selling solo act of time.. people say that 100 times.. get it in your head hahhahahahhah
@DANIEL
You are the only person that’s bitter. This is a MICHAEL JACKSON post yet you keep talking about Elvis. Insecure much?? I think so.
Notice how people always bring up Elvis in conversations about MJ. Why? He is the boiggest competition for Elvis. Now you get over it hahah lmaooo

MJ is the biggest competition for Elvis. Now you get over it hahah lmaooo
@DANIEL
Please be quiet. You’re showing your idiocy. The second best selling artist behind The Beatles is MICHAEL JACKSON
You wanna argue with the RIAA, the Wall Street Journal, etc. that’s your choice. Wikipedia is not a source for 100% correct information. Only a fool wouldn’t know that.
@DANIEL
LOL NO.
@BARBUE,
I don’t know who MICHEAL is, but I know who MICHAEL is. Get the spelling right before you even begin trying to hate. 😉
@MMMM
Preach the truth!
I DON’T CARE HOW THEY PACK IT ALL I WANT IS TO HEAR HIS VOICE SING A DIFFERENT SONG, AND MJ CHILDREN WILL PROFIT NO MATTER WHAT LOOK AT LISA MARIE, SHE HAS NEVER NEEDED TO WORK, SHE HAS BEEN PROFITING FROM ELVIS ESTATE, AND THAT IS FROM HIS OLD MUSIC, HIS NAME, GRACELAND, PLEASE MOVE ON HATERS, MJ CHILDREN NO MATTER WHO GETS A CUT WILL NEVER HAVE TO WORK, ONLY IF THEY WANT TO. MICHAEL JACKSON THE KING OF POP FOREVER. OH ANY WIL IAM STOP HATING, MAKE YOUR SONGS, AND SELL WHAT YOU CAN, BUT YOU WILL NEVER BE HONORED LIKE THE KING. HIS MUSIC WILL ALWAYS BE HONORED!
