What sells albums and cements legendary status more than a death...
Convenient timing me thinks.
He"ll have been paid a chunk of an advance for O2 gigs in London, promoter will have insurence to cover any of their losses and lots of tracks are already known to be finished with a bunch of new people. How much that there"s an album full of
new material before the end of year just in time for the Christmas rush and becomes the biggest seller in years.
Michael is chilling in some compound in Bahrain counting the dough.
Clever marketing ploy FTW
No disrespect intended, I do believe the above is possible. Highly unlikely but def possible.
