Michael Jackson - Thriller - Album

'Thriller' is the sixth studio album by Michael Jackson and became the best-selling album of all time. The album was released on November 30, 1982 by Epic Records as the follow-up to Jackson's critically and commercially successful 1979 album 'Off The Wall'.

'Thriller' explores similar genres to those of Off the Wall, including funk, disco, soul, soft rock, rock, R&B and pop. However, Thriller's lyrics deal with generally darker themes, including paranoia and the supernatural.

Assisted by producer Quincy Jones, Jackson wrote four of Thriller's nine tracks. Following the release of the album's first single 'The Girl Is Mine', some observers assumed Thriller would only be a minor hit record. With the release of the second single 'Billie Jean', the album topped the charts in many countries. At its peak, the album was selling a million copies a week worldwide. In just over a year, Thriller became—and currently remains—the best-selling album of all time. Sales are estimated to be between 60–65 million copies sold worldwide.

Seven of the album's nine songs were released as singles, and all reached the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album won a record-breaking eight Grammy Awards at the 1984 Grammys, including awards in three different genres—pop, R&B and rock.

Thriller cemented Jackson's status as one of the predominant pop stars of the late 20th century, and enabled him to break down racial barriers via his appearances on MTV. In 2001, a special edition issue of the album was released, which contains additional audio interviews, a demo recording and the song 'Someone In the Dark', which was a Grammy-winning track from the E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial storybook. In 2008, the album was reissued again as Thriller 25, containing re-mixes that feature contemporary artists, a previously unreleased song and a DVD.
