Michael Jackson's New Song: What Do You Think?
Michael Jackson's newest (and final) single "This Is It" began streaming on the late singer's official site and hitting radio airwaves Monday at midnight this morning.
The song's release comes amid much hype and nearly four months after the music icon died on June 25 at age 50, grinding the entertainment world to a halt.
An upbeat R&B track, "This Is It" features Jackson's brothers, with whom he first rose to stardom as a child decades ago, on backing vocals, which is neat.
The lyrics, fittingly for a man who influenced so many fellow artists and millions of fans, include "This is it, here I stand/I'm the light of the world, I feel grand."
The two-disc album This Is It will be available in the U.S. October 27, the day before the release of the Michael Jackson documentary This Is It October 28.
Check out the new song below and tell us what you think ...

It is a disgrace to his legacy and SONY should be ashamed. Michael would never have wanted this demo from 26 years ago released for radio airplay. As he always said about those who betrayed him...ANYTHING FOR MONEY! Sony sucks! Sony kills! They don't care about him or his legacy.

It's not a bad song. They're just trying to make as much money as they can, aren't they?
