This Is It, a new single by the late Michael Jackson, will be released on October 12 ahead of the two-week cinema run of the concert film of the same name, starting October 28.
The previously unreleased track features in the closing credits of the documentary flick and features backing vocals by the Jackson 5. It will be the lead-off single from the film soundtrack, due out October 26.
Meanwhile, Jackson's sister La Toya has an MJ tribute song video out this week to promote Home, a single that emerged in July taken from La Toya's upcoming, indefinitely delayed, album Startin' Over. Filmed in an idyllic Neverland Ranch-like setting, proceeds from the track's download sales are going to a Jackson- favoured charity, AIDS Project Los Angeles.
And finally: the Jackson 5 will have all their best Christmas songs compiled for release on October 13 - an as-yet USA-only release. Expect more Jackson archives to become commercially available soon in the wake of their first professional recordings from 1967 being unearthed from storage in August this year.
