Thriller by Michael Jackson

Thriller was released in 1982 and has reigned as the world's best selling album. Since 1982, Thriller has sold over 110 million copies worldwide. It was Michael Jackson's goal to create an album that would make him the greatest artist of all time. He wanted this album to be exciting and edgy to all listeners. Before Thriller, minorities were not featured on MTV. Michael wanted to make a music video so outstanding that MTV could not refuse him. Thriller broke racial barriers for minorities in the music industry.
It features a series of upbeat songs. "Billie Jean," "Beat It" and "Thriller" are among the best known. After Thriller, Michael Jackson's goal was to write another album that could top Thriller, but he could not accomplish that goal. This album is a must have for all music lovers.
