In mirroring the philanthropy efforts of his late friend Michael Jackson, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the MuisCares Foundation\u00ae, a nonprofit organization founded in 1989 by The Recording Academy\u00ae that provides emergency health and human services to music people in need.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One Last Goodbye&#8221; will be unveiled to the &#8216;King of Pop&#8221; fans through Michael Bearden&#8217;s facebook fan page. In addition, Michael Bearden will perform a live version of the song on UStream and engage fans by answering questions about his work with the late pop icon. &#8220;After Michael passed, I started receiving countless emails on my personal facebook page from Michael Jackson fans who wanted to learn about my untold experiences working so closely with the &#8220;King of Pop.&#8221; Ultimately I think fans really just wanted to connect with anyone who was directly linked to Michael Jackson. From this, I was inspired to launch and design my fan page as a place or refuge for fans to continue to talk and fellowship with each other keeping the spirit of Michael Jackson alive&#8221; said Michael Bearden.<\/p>\n<p>In regards to composing a tribute song honoring the birthday of Michael Jackson &#8220;I wanted to write something special to commemorate Michael&#8217;s memory since his passing and recently created the most perfect song titled &#8220;One Last Goodbye.&#8221; It is a genuine expression that best represents how I feel about my friend and colleague. The song pulls at your heart strings and immediately makes you feel loss and love at the same time. I believe it upholds the strong characteristics of MJ but also has elements that represent some of the daunting times he had to experience. Those particular times are a reminder of how we need to treat and embrace one another now and in the future and I believe that was one of Michael&#8217;s greatest missions&#8221; said Bearden.<\/p>\n<p>To sign up and receive updates and notices about the Michael Jackson Birthday Tribute song &#8220;One Last Goodbye&#8221; Produced\/Composed by Michael Bearden, please go to Michael Bearden facebook fan page and become a fan at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Michael-Beardens-Fan-Page\/297342698866\">http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Michael-Beardens-Fan-Page\/297342698866<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Michael Jackson fans interested in viewing the live performance are encouraged to pre-register at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ustream.tv\/channel\/michael-tribute\">http:\/\/www.ustream.tv\/channel\/michael-tribute<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: Janice McCafferty Communications<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michael Bearden, the Music Director and close friend of the late King of Pop Michael Jackson scored the movie &#8220;This Is It&#8221; has composed and produced a new profound song titled &#8220;One Last Goodbye,&#8221; a musical tribute in honor of Michael Jackson&#8217;s birthday on August 29th, which will be available on iTunes.
