Michael Jackson to Record Hurricane Relief Song Fundraising Project titled:
“From the Gulf to the Gulf”

Within 24 hours, Mr. Jackson will be reaching out to other recording superstars asking that they join him in this project to aid victims of Hurricane Katrina


Washington, D.C. ……. In response to the widespread devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina, Recording Superstar Michael Jackson has been moved to pen a song, with the working title, “From the Bottom of My Heart.”

Hoping to rekindle the success of “We Are the World,” which he wrote and produced, and which raised millions of dollars for aid to Africa, Mr. Jackson will be enlisting, within the next 24 hours, the involvement of other recording superstars to join him in this project. It is his intention to record this record within the next two weeks.

“It pains me to watch the human suffering taking place in the Gulf Region of my country,” says Mr. Jackson. “My heart and prayers go out to every individual who has had to endure the pain and suffering caused by this tragedy. I will be reaching out to others within the music industry, to join me in helping to bring relief and hope to these resilient people who have lost everything.”

The song will be recorded on 2 Seas Records, a label owned by Prince Abdulla Hamad Alkhalifa of Bahrain. All proceeds from the sale will be donated to the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

Further details will follow.

It'd be really stupid if they didn't want to record with him because of what's gone on in his personal life. This is a good cause if ever there was one to sing with the man. Just think about how much money this can make for the fund. And these jokes, that's not really funny. My funny bone's in tact, but just find something else to joke about.

I'm just wondering which recording artists would want to associate themselves with MJ?

R. Kelly certainly hasn't had any problems with people wanting to work with him...

Okay, whats the difference between Neverland Ranch and the Superdome?

Only women got raped at the Superdome.

ZING!

Hmmm getting there...
 
I hope Red Cross and the other orgs believe in "every dollar counts" because that's about what they are going to get in proceeds.

People here seemingly forget that Michael still has a large following nationally, and a HUGE following internationally...
 
I'll write the chorus for him:

It was too laaaaaaaate.
Too laaaaaaaate.
It was tooooooo late.
Too laaaaaaaate.
Yes, it was too laaaaate.

AM I RITE?? :D
 
Well the song is already written, just use Black or White, and replace the word Black with loot and the word white with find.

He should just re-record "They Don't Care About Us" and have Kanye West do a rap on it.
:lol Awesome

Didn't Jacko have a song called "What More Can I Give?" planned for a 9/11 benefit, but it was cancelled because a porn producer co-wrote it or something? His last benefit song didn't turn out that well...
 
"I'm just wondering which recording artists would want to associate themselves with MJ?"

Gary Glitter, Pete Townsend, R Kelly, Jonathon King... take yer pick.

Any chance of him teaming up with Elton John for a comedy : "Don't let your son go down on me" ?

But R. Kelly actually makes good music/hit songs. Michael hasn't been anywhere near a hit for over a decade.
