Jackson and Geller to save the world
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 19 December 2008
The Sun claims that Uri Geller thinks he can bring an end to the global economic downturn by inserting subliminal messages into pop music to make people think more positively. The tabloid quote a source as saying: “Uri is convinced the power of positive thought can lift us out of economic gloom”.
The source also explained that he’d approached Simon Cowell to ask if he’d do it with X-Factor winner Alexandra Burke’s first single, with no success: “His offer was politely declined. But he’s not deterred. He’s vowed to succeed and is determining which releases to target.”
It’s claimed, however, that Uri’s long-time friend Michael Jackson is interested in adding Geller’s messages to one of his songs. “Him and Jacko recorded a spoken-word message and want to put it behind the track so it can penetrate people’s subconscious”, the source says.
Surely the recession will be long gone by the time Jacko actually gets round to releasing a new song?
