Thriller will be 40 in November
Thriller starts it all. Thriller is the predecessor to the album, off the wall. Thriller created the ultimate blue print to the “pop sound formula”. Just imagine what what music wouldn’t be like if we didn’t have the musical influences from Thriller . Thriller is an album that perfectly displays the iconic Michael Jackson sound. On this album you have Rock, RB , and a reinvented pop . Thriller stands out from other albums from the early 80s era music. The reason behind that is because Michael Jackson made sure that not just synths and gated reverb drums were used when creating the album. Michael Jackson made sure to incorporate real instruments and beat boxing into thriller’s musical track arrangements. That’s what set Michael Jackson and Thriller our from the rest. Thriller is the best selling album of all time with sales of 70 million copies worldwide. Thriller birthed the moon walk , African Americans on MTV , and “short film” videography. Thriller isn’t just a album it’s a pop cultural piece that will never be forgotten and will be celebrated for years to come. Happy 40th Thriller !
A Note: I wish that Michael Jackson’s estate would celebrate and present Michael Jackson’s achievements more on a more authentic personal scale to his fans. The lack luster shirts and reprints of Thriller album isn’t ideal. I know if Michael was still here he wouldn’t approve. I wish that his estate and promoters would pay more attention to detail and take research on Michael Jackson’s fans to deliver better results when it comes to representing and celebrating Michael’s legacy. What would you have like to have seen the estate do for thriller 40 ?

Then Happy came one day, chased my blues away
My life began when Happy smiled
Sweet, like candy to a child
Stay here and love me just a while
Let sadness see what Happy does
Let Happy be where Sadness was
Happy, that's you
You made my life brand new
Lost as a little lam was I, till you came in
My life began when Happy smiled
Sweet, like candy to a child
Stay here and love me just a while
Let sadness see what Happy does
Let Happy be where Sadness was
(Till now)
Where have I been?
What lifetime was I in?
Suspended between time and space
Lonely until Happy came smiling up at me
Sadness had no choice but to flee
I said a prayer so silently
Let Sadness see what Happy does
Let Happy be where Sadness was
Till now
Happy, yeah yeah
Happy, oehoe happy
happy oh yeah Happy

We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you, my friend, will see
You've got a friend in me
(you've got a friend in me)
Ben, you're always running here and there
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
[ Find more Lyrics on link ]
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go
(you've got a place to go)
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
Ben, most people would turn you away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see you as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
(a friend) Like Ben
(like Ben) Like Ben
