According to RollingStone.com, a new Michael Jackson song will be released this week on Jackson’s official website. The song’s release comes several weeks prior to the theatrical release of the film footage of the rehearsals for the ill-fated This Is It tour (official trailer). The single, also titled This Is It, was to serve as the show’s closer and even features some of Jackson’s brothers on backing vocals.
The song will be included on the soundtrack for the film along with some previously unreleased demos including Beat It and Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’. The film is currently scheduled for a two week run that will start October 27th. The 2-disc soundtrack will be released on October 27th as well.
