Unreleased Michael Jackson Song Features Background Vocals From Brothers

Be sure to take a box of Kleenex with you when you see Michael Jackson's "This Is It." Expect people to be crying when watching Michael's posthumous concert film which hits the big screen on Wednesday, October 28. If seeing footage of a healthy Michael effortlessly firing through production numbers just days before his death does not tug on the heart strings of fans, hearing his previously unreleased song, "This Is It," during the film's closing credits will definitely evoke emotion. The song was released Monday at midnight on MichaelJackson.com

The song's opening lines are prophetic, as they succinctly summarize what the late King of Pop represents to his global listeners:

"This is it, here I stand
I'm the light of the world I feel grand
This love
I can feel
And I know yet we're sure it is real"

For a second, you feel as though Michael recorded this track for this very moment. The lyrics are actually about gently ending a relationship with a lover.

A regular and orchestra version of the compositon appears on the "This Is It" album released internationally on October 26 and in North America on October 27. The rendition featured on the MichaelJackson.com website is a classic Michael ballad. The music is soft and complimentary. The electric and bass guitars, violins, and piano are light, not over produced.

Michael's voice shines through, displaying the passion he did on "She's Out Of My Life," "Heal The World," and "I Just Can't Stop Loving You."

Hearing his brothers' perfect subtle supporting harmony sweetens the offering in typical Jackson 5 form.

This song makes us miss him that much more.

Disc 1 of the 2-CD set includes a compilation of hits. Disc 2 includes demo recordings of "She Out Of My Life," "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'," and "Beat It."

A team end tour on winning note

Bangladesh A wrapped up their tour of Maharashtra with a five-wicket victory over Maharashtra Cricket Association in their second and last Twenty20 match at the Poona Cricket Club in Pune yesterday.

The victory means the two-match T20 series is drawn one all that followed a draw in the single four-day match and a 2-1 defeat in the one-dayers, all against the same opposition.

The match on Monday was more of a mirror image of the previous game played the previous day. Maharashtra won the toss yet again, but decided to bat this time around. And they put on a modest total of 136 runs in their allotted 20 overs losing 7 wickets in the process. Shahadat Hossain, Dollar Mahmud, and Faisal Hossain took two wickets each.

In reply, the tourists coasted to the victory target with four balls to spare and five wickets intact, thanks to a quickfire half-century from veteran batsman Hannan Sarker. Sarker remained not out on 53 while he was ably supported by Suhrawardy Shuvo who also remained unbeaten on 20. The team is expected to return home today

Citycell Federation Cup'09, Feni pull off surprise

Newcomers Feni Soccer Club set up a semifinal clash with Mohammedan in the Citycell Federation Cup after a 4-2 shootout win over Rahmatganj MFS in the second quarterfinal at the Bangabandhu National Stadium yesterday.

Like the first quarterfinal tie, the match also rolled into the tiebreaker after both sides failed to produce any decider in the 90-minute regulation time.

The first semifinal is billed for Saturday at the same venue.

Feni goalkeeper Piaruzzaman Piru was the man behind propelling Feni Soccer to the last four as the former Arambagh KS keeper stopped the first two strikes by Ugandan striker Indris Kasirye and Guinean forward Raphael Sango in the shootout to give the outsiders a surprising success in their first-ever appearance in top flight football.

Rahmatganj goalkeeper Arifuzzaman Himel also had a good start blocking the first shot from Feni forward Anwar Hossain, but later he failed to stop shots from Asif Yousuf, Monayem Khan Raju, Imrul Hasan and Mintu Sheikh.

"I just concentrated on the movements of the shooters and easily stopped the first two shots," said Piru after the match. "As a captain, I am happy after having done my duty in taking the team to the last fours," said an ecstatic Piru.

Feni coach Milon Mollah was also happy with the outcome, but he did not want to be overly elated.

"I will only be happy if we can play good football in the B. League and I don't want to rate this outcome as extraordinary," said Milon. "We should have won the game in the regulation time and you saw we missed a spot kick."

Milon's counterpart Mir Mohammad Faruqe said that his inactive midfield was the main reason behind the failure.

"Without suspended playmaker Kabir Hossain, our midfield collapsed and the foreign duo was also not up to mark as per their ability," said Faruque, whose side last season qualified for the Fed Cup semifinals.

Feni Soccer should have taken a lead midway through the first half when referee Azad Raman awarded them a penalty after Rahmatganj defender Jahangir Patuary brought Amirul Islam inside the danger zone. But, Asif missed the target hitting the sidebar to deprive the newcomers from a deserved lead.

With three minutes left from the lemon break, Anwar tested goalkeeper Himel outside the box, but his shot was drifting away from of the far post.

After resumption, Feni went all out sending on striker Ashraful Kader Manju in place of Amirul and kept on creating changes, but was unlucky in not converting them.

Rahmatganj, however, could have gone ahead in the 65th minute when Idris dragged a grounder from off a Raphael minus inside the box, but Piru foiled the efforts.
