LaToya Jackson Tribute Song To Be Released
LaToya Jackson's family tribute song "Home" will be released Tuesday, July 28, on iTunes on the Universal Records distributed Ja-Tail Records and Bungalo Records.
The song was originally recorded for LaToya's unreleased album
"Starting Over." In the lyrics, LaToya reminisces about how much she misses all
the fun times she had growing up with her siblings.
She sings, "Missing all the years we all shared at home, silly things we did, laughing from early dusk to dawn. I remember when we were always best friends."
In the heartfelt ballad, LaToya says she knows her brothers and sisters have busy lives, but she hopes they can spend more time together.
"So don't you tell me you don't know what I'm feeling. And don't tell me I'm just dreaming. Like mother always said, Your family will always be there for you. It don't have to be this way. Let's make tomorrow a much much brighter day. Don't let this time between us slip away."
Jeffre Phillips, Ja-Tail founder, told AP that LaToya
planned to release another record as her debut single. But the album was placed
on hold when Michael Jackson died on June 25.
Ja-Tail decided to release "Home" in memory of Michael, Phillips told AP. Phillips added that the label would donate the proceeds to one of the late Jackson's favorite charities, AIDS Project LA.
LaToya would not be participating in the marketing and promotion of the song, Phillips added.

I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT YOUR BROTHER MICHAEL IS MISSED VERY MUCH BY HIS FANS AND I KNOW THAT HE IS MISSED BY HIS FAMILY EVEN MORE. I HOPE YOUR SONG FINDS A SMALL WAY TO HELP YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HEAL FROM THE UNTIMELY LOSS OF YOUR BELOVED BROTHER MICHAEL. THOUGH TIME MAY PASS AND THE PAIN WILL LESSEN WITH IT BUT MICHEAL WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN BY HIS FANS OR BY YOU HIS FAMILY. AN TO LET YOU KNOW MICHAEL WANTED EVERYONE TO FEEL LIKE HE WAS A PART OF THEIR FAMILY AS WELL AS HIS , THAT'S WHAT HE MADE ME FEEL ANYWAY AND I DON'T THINK I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT FEELS THAT WAY. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY .YOUR FAMILY A LONG WITH MICHAEL WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY PRAYER'S.
whoimichael.com check out this website before you say something like that again. I thought the same way and i feel so bad for it now...It sounds terrible but it took his life for me to realize how wrong i was...I wish i had a chance to apologize...It hurts my heart now...my soul is crying...maybe this is a lesson i had to get...Before we judge some one we need to make sure our judgment based on several sources, not only on what media said. If someone strongly believes you did something wrong & you didn't - wouldn't you want them to listen your side of the story??? This site was made by NOT A FAN but by a person who was smart enough to take a minute & rethink all that. He was on one of the hearings. He's got a lot of info there to make all haters think about it again.
And i'm not talking about Michael's music here. I strongly respect this man for all he've done & adore his parents because it takes A LOT to raise 9 kids & make sure they all become good people! Not many parents do that now days...MJ's Book of World Record's entry for "Most Charities Supported By a Pop Star" is recorded in their 2000 edition. That is good enough for me. This is what matters!!!! Not the way he looked! He was beautiful because he had this light of love coming from inside! He had the GREATEST SOUL!
It won't take you long time to find interview with LaToya on youtube where she explains why she said bad things about her brother...only if you want to spent this time on that, if not don't waste it on posting bad comments about Michael...i've been there, i believe her! It's said though that most of us has to go thru something like that in order to believe another person...And you know what, if anyone will hurt my child i will make sure that he spends the rest of his life in jail! And there is no amount of money anyone can name that will make me (or my child) sleep better at night!!!!! Michael didn't buy their silence for money - world already new what this family was claiming! But that only proves that money rule this world & many people hearts...it's so sad...And it's exactly what this family was going for - money, not justice!
Let me ask you a question: If you hate MJ why would you waste your time reading articles about him & posting a comments? I can only explain it that way: deep inside you feel there is something not right! You might not realize that but i'm sure you do...or i hope:)
I love him, i hope more people could be so kind & giving like Michael was...In one of the interviews (60min i think) he was asked what does he think about this kid claiming Michael molested him. He said he doesn't believe this child could do that, he said parents could but not the kid - he knows his heart...After all he still believes in people...Amazing!!!!!!!
I truly apologize...& thank you, Michael for making this world a BETTER PLACE! RIP...
Michael did more for this planet than most people ever will.
RIP Michael, hope and pray you're in a better place and that somewhere in time we'll see you sing and dance again.
God Bless you all!
My brother that died, his name was also Michael. I'll see you again Michaels. Peace
Aloha , Priscilla from Hawaii
MAY GOD BLESS THE JACKSON FAMILY . RIP MJ
