Anka says McClain apologized profusely, saying he knew \"Michael couldn't have written this song alone. It's not his style.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anka says McClain now acknowledges that \"This Is It\" is really Paul's song, and said, \"We'll give you whatever you want, whatever it takes we'll do the right thing.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anka says he's not trying to hold the estate up but he wants them to be fair.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And how's this ... Anka says McClain asked him to do promotion for the song.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's Hollywood, folks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;\n&lt;div class=\"related\" id=\"classkey\"&gt;\n&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span&gt;More Paul Anka&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;\n&lt;ul&gt;\n    &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=\"http://www.tmz.com/2009/10/12/paul-anka-michael-jackson-this-is-it-I-never-heard/\"&gt;Paul Anka Claims 'This Is It' is a Rip-Off&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;\n    &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=\"http://www.tmz.com/2008/09/21/singer-paul-anka-memba-him/\"&gt;Singer Paul Anka: 'Memba Him?!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;\n&lt;/ul&gt;\n&lt;/div&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
