What is really strange is that I'm not sure that this was an advanced CD. I listened to Reach Out, which we've all been complaining about, since his voice cracks, and he doesn't hit the notes. And from what I heard, it sounded just the same... VH1 could just have screwed the whole thing up, big time!

Advanced copies of a CD do not necessarily mean that they are printed before editing or anything. It just means that they print off so many before printing off the actual versions. Since they usually only print off X amount of advanced copies (if they do) for promo use, they just slap the songs on, print 'em, and ship 'em.
