Thriller is the biggest album of all time, and it’s basically nine tracks of Michael Jackson throwing sequencer bass, funk grooves, and red leather swagger at the world until it broke the charts in half. From Eddie Van Halen shredding “Beat It” into the stratosphere, to Vincent Price doing his best spooky laugh, to Billie Jean insisting the kid is not his son, this record is equal parts genius, weirdness, and pop perfection.
In this episode, I go track by track through Thriller — the Yeehaw that once turned a Corpus Christi Kinko’s nearly into a flash mob, the Weird Al parody that almost upstaged the original, and the Mandela Effect mystery of “The Lady in My Life.” It’s slick, it’s strange, it’s repetitive in that early-’80s sequencer way, but it still towers over pop music like a glitter-covered giant.
So moonwalk into your headphones and relive the record that made MTV a household word and Michael the King of Pop.
