Michael Jackson - Thriller

Thriller by Michael Jackson Song Info

"Thriller" is a song recorded by American recording artist Michael Jackson, composed by Rod Temperton, and produced by Quincy Jones. It is the seventh and final single from his sixth studio album Thriller. It was released on January 23, 1984 by Epic Records. The song has appeared on multiple greatest hits compilation albums from Jackson, including HIStory: Past, Present, and Future, Book I (1995), Number Ones (2003), The Essential Michael Jackson (2005), and Michael Jackson's This Is It (2009). The song, which has a voice-over from actor Vincent Price, had originally been titled "Starlight." The song's instruments include a bassline and synthesizer. In the song, sound effects such as a creaking door, thunder, feet walking on wooden planks, winds and howling dogs can be heard, and the lyrics contain frightening themes and elements. "Thriller" received positive reviews from critics, though the song was outshone by its music video. "Thriller" became Jackson's seventh top-ten single on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart from the album, while reaching the top of the charts in France and Belgium and the top ten in other countries. "Thriller" was adapted into a highly successful music video, known independently as Michael Jackson's Thriller. At fourteen minutes the video is substantially longer than the song, which ties together a narrative featuring Jackson and actress Ola Ray in a setting heavily inspired by horror films of the 1950s. In the video's most iconic scene, Jackson leads other actors costumed as zombies in a choreographed dance routine. Though it garnered some criticism for its occult theme and violent imagery, the video was immediately popular and received high critical acclaim, being nominated for six MTV Video Music Awards in 1984 and winning three. In 2009 it was added to the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress, the first music video ever selected. "Thriller" has been covered by multiple recording artists since its release in 1984, including Henry Mancini (with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra), Ian Brown, Ten Masked Men, and Imogen Heap.

- God of Pop Music

Body of work that is timeless.

- Highest Selling Record Ever

What more needs to be said??? $10 though for 9 songs...? Even though it is undeniably a classic, it should be priced at $5.99, or AT MOST $7.99.

- Yes

YAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- Meh

Meh then. Dated pew now. By far, the most over-rated album of all time.

- Iconic

Nothing to say about this. You can’t say anything bad about this album

- Meh

Bad is a better album

- Definitely deserves to be the best selling album ever.

Bad and Off the Wall are great albums, but this, this is epic. It’s a mix of pop, post-disco, rock, and R&B. Personally, I’m a fan of old school rock n’ roll bands like AC/DC and Led Zeppelin, but this is still an awesome I can actually enjoy unlike modern pop music. Edit: The fact that Eddie Van Halen, lead guitarist for one of my favorite bands ever, Van Halen, did a guitar solo on “Beat It” makes the album even better than me.

- >:D

Beat it HATERS >:D

- The BEST!!!

Love him. Always have.

- THE PRODUCTION THO!!

Very meticulous production and michael jackson is a great singer of course. :)

- Michael Jackson is the best

- Michael jman

😀😀😀😀

- Crazy

Of da hook

- Best song

I like this because Michael Jackson has best song and this song is so good

- Beat it

One of the best if not the best guitar solos ever recorded. Nuff said.

- Greatest album ever recorded

Michael Jackson used his magical genius and vocal experience to mix musical genres and elements of disco, funk, pop, r&b, and rock. This masterpiece album successfully won eight grammy awards and remains the best selling album of all time. Although he suffered severely from post-traumatic stress disorder with paranoia, he broke stereotypes and had a positive impact on the world.

- Dance furiously

Every time I hear this album come on it’s seemingly always in a public place and I run off streaking and I always get caught and tackled by the police and then I have to spend another 15 years in jail and I am also very gassy so I have never been very popular... But the album is good.

- 🐐

Best singer and songwriter ever 🙌🏻❤️

- Oh my god

I just wanted to say that I love the momentum of the claps and snare.

- Absolutely

SUPERB! Michael Jackson will live forever!! RIP to the king of pop!

- Billie Jean

My favorite Michael Jackson song of all-time!

- Take his music off iTunes

Molesting young children is criminal. Take his music down.

- Brilliant

Such an iconic album. Amazing how good Jacko was in his prime. Rip to this brilliant artist.

- Perfection

There’s a reason it’s greatest selling album of all time. A masterpiece!!

- Awesome

Shh... just buy it

- After learning more..

Due to the incessant reports of Michael Jackson and alleged child molestation and sexual abuse of young boys, it’s safer to no longer listen to his music and remember him as an artist. He was a sick person and to abandon his legacy is the right thing to do at this time.

- To bad he’s dead

He is the best pop singer ever in history.

- Fantastic Album. My Review

Wanna Be Startin Somethin (9/10) — The Song is just Long like “Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough” But I still like the song Baby Be Mine (8.5/10) — I like the beginning beat of the song The Girl is Mine (9.5/10) — I just love that Paul is in the song like “Say Say Say” Thriller (8.5/10) — I like the song but the laugh at the end still scares me Beat It (10/10) — Love The Chorus Of The Song But, the song’s Platinum Gold Billie Jean (10/10) — Same with “Beat It” Human Nature (9/10) — The Sound At the background is just calm, and the chorus’ good P.Y.T. (9/10) — I like the PYTs part (Say “na na na”) The Lady Of My Life (8/10) — I have nothing to say about this song but I just like it Average (9.05/10)

- BEST ALBUM EVER

10/10

- Miss you

Best album ever

- #1 ALBUM OF ALL TIME!!! rip

R I P Michael Jackson he will be remembered from this album & many others

- Best Album Michael Did!!

This album is one the best examples of what good music is. Michael certainly proved this with Thriller. It is too bad that things have gone so out of control for him.

- The album I will always remember getting for my birthday!

I can't say enuff...

- R.I.P Micheal, nice job!

This album is amazing and micheal is amazing, i hate pop but micheal is the only pop artist I like! Thriller is my favorite song! Rock on Micheal! your legacy continues to live even after you have passed away!

- WOW... a legend that will never be forgotten.

This album is INCREDIBLE. This is obvious because it's the number one selling record and will remain the number one selling record, forever. Michael will never be forgotten as well as his talent, his charm, his unconditional kindness and love he shared for the world and it's children. RIP michael Jackson. A legend i feel blessed to have had in my generation.

- Definition of pop music.

Great album. rest in peace MJ

- Rest In Peace Micheal

What a loss!!!! His talent was undeniable and we will not see any entertainer with his magnitude again in our lifetimes. I have never been a crazed emotional fan of any singer but I still can't believe how sad I am that his life is gone. His legacy will continue. Say what you will about his life if any one of us reached that level of massive stardom it is bound to affect anyone, I know he handled it far better than I would have. This is the album of the century buy it twice!!!!!! Love, Peace...Moonwalk!

- mj rocks

michael jackson was an amazing artist and will be missed

- Beautiful

R.I.P.

- Thriller...Thriller Night

That album is THE album. I don't know what kind of idea have pass in Michael head to recording that album...but is was a good idea...a realy good idea. The video Thriller is also awsome. BUY IT RIGHT NOW. You will not regret it. Ciao Ciao.

- Great Album......RIP Michael

good album.... r.i.p. on june. 25, 2009.

- RIP Michael Jackson!!!

Let the music live on forever!!! Wherever you are, you are probably dancing!!! While you are gone, your legend will never die.

- Peace.

Into every life, a little of Michael Jackson's music must be played. So, whatever your tastes, you must have something by him in your collection! It's weird to write this on the back of a Kasabian review, but...I grew up in the '80s...the phenomenon known as Michael Jackson could not be avoided. I actually wasn't that into him (I was a "Duranie" haha, 'til I saw the light and got into U2.) But we had the vinyl, and you couldn't argue with his talent, charisma, and showmanship...it was all good. Whatever he became, you still cannot argue with his unbelievable talent, and that he was a pivotal, groundbreaking musical figure. His passing is so sad: 50 years old. That's just robbery. I think he was amazing, and I think it's sad what his life became. His musical legacy will live on, this is certain. I hope he is finally at peace. God knows he deserves it. P.S. - also get the Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' 2008 remix with Akon - really brilliant.

- Incredible!

This is the best albulm mj did. There's no doubt in anyone's mind that he changed the world and how we saw music. My personal favorite songs by him are thriller, beat it, bille jean, man in the mirror, don't stop til' you get enough etc. It's hard to believe that he is gone forever =(. He will truly be missed and i know he will be dancing with the angels in heaven now. I don't care what anybody says, HE DIDN'T M****T YOUNG BOYS. He died on June 25 2009 of cardiac arrest. He will never be forgotten. Rest In Peace Michael Jackson, you've brought me so many good memories with your songs. Michael Jackson will truly go down as one of the greatest legends in history.

- Just Perfect

"Thriller" The name of the album alone displays the entire genius behind it. There's no doubts as to why it is the number one selling album of all time (and I, myself, believe it will stay this way). Even if pop, rock, or R&B are not for you, you can still see the musical intelligence behind the music. Michael Jackson has left us with some fantastic music that will never be forgotten.

- Long live the King!

We have lost any future music from the most talented entertainer in history.. Enjoy what he left us with!

- Legendary singer + album

What a great album, no wonder its still the top seller still after almost 3 decades. Michael your passing will not mean the end of your legacy and influence but instead a greater desire to know the real Michael Jackson, despite what the media reports. RIP MJ

- king of pop will never be forgotten

amazing album, michael will be missed . RIP !

- Michael !!!

I have always loved Michael and I will always do, no matter what people think about him. I still can't believe that he died : I cried when I saw it on the web. =( Anyway, the king of pop is unforgetable, he's a pure genius, an amazing dancer with an awesome voice ! I will never forget him and I will listen to his music forever ! I Love you Michael Joseph Jackson =)<333

- R.I.P.

we are going to miss you MJ you were a legend.

- Legendary Album ❤️❤️

Undoubtedly the All time favourite album - Thriller

- The King Lives Forever

Undoubtedly the best album of all time. Everytime you hear the album, you find something new in it.

- MJ

MJ at his best

- Michael Jackson

Miss you 😢MJ

- Nostalgia at its best

Incredible tunes.Thriller reminds you of those 80s horror movies and especially Stephen King's books. I used to listen to thriller while reading his books and the experience was unmatched. I recommend buying the whole album as its a pure masterpiece.

- WOW !!!!!!!

Thriller , what an Amazing album :) Michael Jackson is truly the "King Of Pop" ******** AWESOME******** !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- AMAZING!! 😄

This album is absolutely AMAZING just like any other MJ album if you don't have it then that's your loss you have no idea what your missing!! Loved MJ all my life!! R.I.P MJ 😔

- Life Changer

This album changed my life. Everyone needs this album, it's the best selling of all time, and for a good reason!

- Music History!

I never really liked him when the music was released but just listened to it again for the first time in about a million years (well since it was released) and really enjoyed it! In fact one of the must haves in any collection regardless of your taste in music! Also downloaded sign o' the times, awesome

- Timeless

If are reading this looking for a reason to download then you are obviously not a Michael fan.... Simply awesome

- Best Selling Album Ever

There is no doubt that it’s the great masterpiece to foster the further pop music development in 1980’s. Michael made it immortal. Forever the king of pop

- Turning Point

The moment black artists forced their way onto MTV off the back of MIchael's astute decision to merge his soul with the rock greats on Beat It. The moment Michael self funded the Thriller short film directed by 'American Werewolf' director John Landis and changed music videos forever… and the moment he put on his Mum's sparkly cardigan and wowed everyone with his live performance of Billie Jean! This is music history. A true classic.

- Awesome

This album is a Thriller even 30 years on since it was released!!! :)

- Never gets old

The best selling album of all time! This album is just top class.

- iTunes match problem!!!

please note that although this track is amazing there is an iTunes match issue with it, Michael's voice is removed from the downloaded version!
