Description:

Should several of the tracks on the 25th anniversary edition of Thriller find their way onto your MP3 player, you're going to have to admit: the music holds up. "Beat It" is not about to go stale, at least not without a rumble, and neither are "Billie Jean" and "P.Y.T." Even if you put the record-hurtling hits aside, you're still left with the realization that without MJ, there might not have been a JT [Justin Timberlake], never mind a Ne-Yo (listen closely to "Human Nature" and "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'"). The bonus DVD bundled with the expanded CD includes a digitally redone version of the famous title-track video, among other clips, and it still astonishes with its choreography and attitude. As for the new tracks--Fergie inserts herself into "Beat It," Will.i.am takes on "The Girl Is Mine" and "P.Y.T.," Kanye West remixes "Billie Jean" (with characteristically subtle brilliance), Akon duets with M-Jack on "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'," and the unreleased ballad "For All Time" (from the original Thriller sessions) is shined up and tacked on--they will suck you in like it was pop music's hugest year, 1983, all over again. Start brushing up on your moonwalk now. --Tammy La Gorce

2A Few Thoughts  May 29, 2008
Someone once told me this is the biggest selling album ever.

The sequencing is pretty screwy. The song "Thriller" should have ended side 2.

I believe Billie Jean's side of the story.

Why didn't they include "Stranger in Moscow"?



5"He made Thriller, man.." - Dave Chappelle  May 05, 2008
I was watching an episode of the Chappelle Show once and in it there was a hilarious skit about him being a juror in an MJ trial and he defends MJ's 'innocence' I think this line which he says pretty much sums up, the magnificence of Michael Jackson and why he will always be the King of pop.

I grew up in the time when this album was released, and some of the tunes on this record are still dance hall classics. No matter what genre you belong to, Death Metal, Classical, Jazz, Indie poop, or whatever. Thriller would have touched your musical element at some point in your existence.
This album is a classic record, right from Beat it to Billie Jean, Ballads - Human Nature and Lady in my life (MJ goes supernova on this track, whatta love song).. every track on this album is pure gold and am glad to see they are celebrating 25 years in a befitting tribute to this record.
This album is a benchmark and i do recommend for you to get this CD.
Great Times!

5100% fantastic  May 04, 2008
I have never heard this album so clear in my life. The new songs are also great. Akon's version of "Wanna Be Starting Something" is almost better than Michael's version. I give a thumbs up

3Pop is really not my favorite  Apr 29, 2008
This is the number one selling album of all time, I believe. I'm not into pop, but I bought it 'cause my daughter wanted it...
