It's Harvey ... I've just heard Michael Jackson's first single, "Hold My Hand" -- not the one that leaked a few years ago, but the one Sony is about to release. First of all, it's great -- slower than a lot of MJ's songs.
Our sources say Akon recently came back to the studio to lay down more vocals and really put the finishing touches on it. It sounds more produced than the "Breaking News" song that was put online this week.
It's a classic, Akon-type song and it seems like Michael takes on Akon's style. His voice fluctuates like Akon's and there's a similar tonal quality.
As for "Breaking News," I just heard the finished version. It's more produced than the one Sony put online and sounds more classic MJ.
This is going to be a huge album.

TMZ has learned the pediatrician who examined the child of Mel Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva the day after their explosive blowout never saw any evidence the baby was injured, contrary to Oksana's claim.
We've obtained a declaration from Dr. Linda Nussbaum, who says Oksana brought Lucia in for an examination on January 7, 2010, the day after the January 6 showdown.
According to the declaration, Oksana brought Lucia in to check on a protrusion on Lucia's belly button, but never mentioned an injury to the baby's chin, which she now claims Mel inflicted.
Dr. Nussbaum says, "...I did not see any symptoms of trauma, abuse, bruising, redness or injury on her face, head or elsewhere on her body."
Oksana is alleging Mel struck and injured the child during the argument, but Dr. Nussbaum says, "Ms. Grigorieva did not state to me that Lucia had suffered any trauma, abuse or injury of any kind."
We're told Mel's side believes a photo Oksana is using in the custody case -- showing a mark on the baby's chin -- was doctored.

Samantha Ronson has a "vicious murderer" living with her named "Cadillac" -- this according to a lawsuit obtained by TMZ.
Farnouche Kamran just filed the lawsuit in L.A. County Superior Court -- claiming Ronson's dog Cadillac attacked and killed her dog Tiger in the hallway of their apartment complex back in August.
