"Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart..."
As expected, a certain spooky track by Michael Jackson is making its annual climb on the music charts as Halloween fast approaches.
The King of Pop, who died in 2009 at age 50, released "Thriller" way back in 1982, and fans have cherished the chart-topping song ever since — especially during the month of October.
In fact, Jackson's relentlessly addictive track has already reappeared on two Billboard charts in the U.S. this week, Forbes reports.
"Thriller" has returned highest — and inside the top 10 — on the R&B Digital Song Sales ranking, where it lands at No. 6, Forbes noted, while also soaring back onto the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales ranking, where it has nearly become a top-10 success again, starting off this year at No. 13.
Meanwhile, the iconic album of the same name currently lives on five Billboard charts in the U.S. Thriller is nearing the top 10 on the Top R&B Albums chart, Forbes noted, and also lives inside the top 40 on both the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and Top Album Sales rosters, improving to Nos. 27 and 38, respectively.
Jackson released Thriller in November 1982, and it went right to No. 1, with many in the music biz regarding it as one of the greatest albums of all time. It has gone platinum a whopping 34 times, and that's just in the U.S. Other songs from the LP that were promoted as singles were:
“The Girl Is Mine”“Billie Jean”“Beat It”“P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)”Late last month, Lionel Richie released a memoir that detailed his longtime friendship with Jackson. Truly, which hit the shelves on Sept. 30, even included a funny anecdote about a unique nickname the late Quincy Jones once gave Jackson, according to Richie, 76. Since Jackson was always on the road and had limited access to fresh clothes, Jones started calling him "Smelly." Oof!
