Michael Jackson could be back in the charts before long with the release of his first posthumous single next month.
The new album is inspired by the film This Is It
The previously unheard song This Is It features backing vocals by the late King of Pop's brothers, the Jacksons.
It will be released as a single on October 12 and will also feature on a new two-disc album, Jackson's record label Sony said.
"This song only defines, once again, what the world already knows - that Michael is one of God's greatest gifts," said producer John McClain.
The new album, also called This Is It, will include music from the film of the same name and is timed to coincide with the movie, which will be in cinemas for two weeks from October 28.
The first disc features some of Jackson's biggest hits in the order they appear in the film and ends with two versions of the new single.
Previously unreleased recordings of classic tracks will be included on disc two, along with a poem called Planet Earth which has never been heard before.
Fans who buy the album will get a commemorative booklet with exclusive photographs of Jackson during the last rehearsal before his death in June.
Tickets for the film of Jackson preparing for concerts which would have taken place at the O2 Arena in London go on sale next week.
