First Time Reaction to Michael Jackson - Thriller

You know, I may be a full blown metalhead, but you can never go wrong with any Michael Jackson song. Highly recommend you do more if you enjoyed it. He was dubbed the "King of Pop" for a reason.

Hopefully more in the future ❤

Life long Metal guy here as well but there are certain artists who transcend genres and are in a league all their own: Michael Jackson and David Bowie are the two who always spring to mind as examples. The kinds of people you can never recreate no matter how hard you tried.

[@ayaanbretmitchell9830]

Mj always had a vision. I believe he payed for all his short films from his own pocket. This short film still holds up today especially the zombie element. The Vincent price element was genius in itself. Choreography unmatched. No one ever mentions it but MJ and Ola's chemistry in this is excellent. Mj was a phenomenon. Absolutely devastating loss to the world.

I was in college when it came out. The MTV build-up was a month long. Everyone I knew were glued to a TV. Instant success! But then came the ENDLESS LOOP of it being played into the ground!

[@MichaelScheele]

Movie director John Landis directed the music video for "Thriller". He had directed "Animal House," "The Blues Brothers," and "An American Werewolf in London". It was one of the most expensive music videos ever made. It is iconic. Michael Jackson's "Thriller" (1982) is the best selling album of all time. It was a cultural phenomenon. In the 1980s, no one was bigger than Michael Jackson in popular music; hence his nickname, "The King of Pop." Each year, a number of cities in the United States have a "Zombie Walk" where people dress like zombies and dance like Michael Jackson did in the "Thriller" music video. The voiceover toward the end of the song featured the voice of Vincent Price, an actor who starred in thrillers (now called horror movies) from the late 1930s into the 1980s.

[@chrisd7047]

I live in Louisville. There is a zombie walk every year.

[@MrDarkknight2011]

The Thriller Song was released November 29th 1982. I was only 2 years old when this came out. So, I didn't get to fully appreciate any of Michael Jackson's music til I was in my early teens.

[@villaincorp7728]

this was early 80's, even before VCR's. We had an RCA Disc player. We had Thriller and the Making of Thriller with ALL the behind the scenes.

[@wildwillhiccup]

We didn't have Mtv in Brazil at the time, but it was national released at the most important tv show at a sunday night. The whole country was watching and everybody couldn't talk about anything else for a long time. Every teen knew the moves and coreography, people was dancing this everywhere, at the clubs, schools and streets. Later when he came here to record They don't care about us, was a unmatched comotion to this day. MJ was the king for a reason. He still relevant to this day and always will. The way he inpired people and show a lot of regard toward his fans, exceded his position as an artist and put him on another level.

Hands down the best reaction and fun time ever. Thanks! 😊 Iconic is Michael Jackson, too!

[@Milkers777]

Don´t forget that at that time, people were doing videos while standing in front of a wall singing, just nothing and suddenly Mike comes with THIS. And also, there was no internet. You had to wait till they played it on tv. And kids were missing school to see the premiere of it on MTV. Even in the 90´s, when MJ released a video, it was on evening main news, like CNN, BBC news, not Entertainment TV News. Back then there wasn´t this celebrity culture we have today, where you get regular "news" on celebrities this truly The Greatest Music Video Of All Time!

Michael Jackson was just one of those artists that transcended his genre and the era he was in. His influence is in everything. Didn't matter if you were a metalhead, rapper, country music singer, etc. everyone seemed to gravitate toward his talent. And it was because of songs like this. Thriller was a mega hit when it released. Still is. It literally is as iconic of a song as it gets. And everyone recognizes the dance ;)

[@phobiaone306]

Two Iconic voices on one song! Vincent Price doing the Narration was next level!

[@samf.6298]

Thriller the single was released in Europe late in '83 and in the US in early '84. It was Michael's pride and joy, he put a lot of his own money into the production of the video. I was nine when it came out and I remember how much of an impact it had on music lovers of all genres. Mtv was relatively young and actually played music videos...gasp! Thriller took center stage and became an instant sensation! Can't remember exactly how many weeks it remained number one but it was forever, no one could touch it! Those were Michael's glory days and he couldn't seem to miss on a song. No matter what your style of music was, everyone loved Michael!! Kids everywhere were break dancing in those days, listening to all things Michael Jackson. P.Y.T(Pretty Young Thing), Beat It and Thriller were all over the radio, being recorded to cassettes and played on every boom box! Awesome memories!!

[@everyonelovesmajima]

They day he died they interrupted regular TV and showed this in its entirety. This wasn't a music video that they just showed randomly, this was an event that had commercials and it was listed in the TV Guide. All his videos were, and they debuted in prime-time on major networks, and the whole world stopped and watched, it was insane.

[@chrispredsfan]

This is was at the time the most expensive video ever made. I remember MTV had a count down each day to when they were going to show it. Once it got within 24 hours they kept the clock on the screen going continuously. I remember watching for the first time. The video was released in December 2nd 1983.

FYI, the guy reading the poem(?) in the middle of the song is Vincent Price. He was an old school actor whose heyday was in the middle of the 20th century and, though he did plenty of other work, was remembered for all the horror films he did, like Masque of the Red Death.

It's hard to put into words at how incredible this video was. MTV was still new, as was cable TV, and VCR's would cost in excess of $200 and weighed around 10 pounds. MTV would announce throughout the day at what time the video would premiere along with the following times you could watch it. I grew up in Gary, Indiana (Michael Jackson's hometown) and remember my uncle picking up me and 2 of my sisters to go to his house and watch the Thriller video, which was going to premiere and he was also recording it on his VCR, which was my first time seeing one up close.

I was in High School when this was released, and my town had only started to get cable TV. I lived on the main street, so I got MTV before my friends.

That's incorrect. It debuted on Friday Night Videos ONLY. I saw it that very night it was shown. It was promoted by Friday Night Videos a few weeks before it came out. That show was only on one channel. Now, maybe later it was shown where ever else. But even MTV wouldn't show it because at the time they didn't cater to Black music.

Loved your reaction! This was very fun! This groundbreaking video was released in 1983, and was hugely popular right away. It was directed by a famous Hollywood director (John Landis) and featured professional dancers and choreography. An extra popular feature was that the narrator was famous horror movie actor Vincent Price, who also narrates the scary poem in the middle, and does the laugh at the end. His name is featured on the movie marquee sign at the beginning.

It was released in 1982 and was a short film feature directed by Hollywood director John Landis. MTV was only one year old by then and MJ took advantage of the platform to create and release this film as his marketing for the Thriller album. I remember it being a HUGE deal when the hype was preceding the video premiere and everyone was glued to their TVs to watch it. MTV would then schedule certain time slots to show the complete video a couple times a day and I remember having thriller watching gatherings and would try to dance with the video. Ahhh the good ole days.
