    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.
    Who better to do it than the king of pop! Hopefully it will be as sucessfull as "We are the world" was. I can't wait for it.

    Half of the people in the musical history books are going to be recording this song. James brown and Michael Jackson, what a combination. Knowing Michael Jackson's ties he'll probably ge Stevie Wonder in there as well.
