“This song only defines, once again, what the world already knows - that Michael is one of God's greatest gifts, “John McClain, co-producer of the album, and co-executor of MJ's estate, said in a statement.
The first disc will include original album masters of some MJ hits, arranged in the same order as they appear in the film. It will also feature two versions of the single, "This Is It." The second disc will feature previously unreleased versions of some of Michael's classic songs.
