Late Michael Jackson breaks new record with 'Thriller' sales

It still doesnt seem real that MJ has gone. A reminder to "dont stop till ya get enough"

But many experts doubt that any album will ever match “Thriller” in sales, at least in the Western world, with 21st-century fans enjoying instant access to a huge array of digital music.

^^^ This. I don't know of anyone who buys albums/CDs when they first come out anymore. They either wait for a "Greatest Hits" CD or buy the singles online. Thriller will probably sit on this throne for the remainder of the existence of "albums".

"Thriller" was alright. "Off the Wall" was much much better.

Do not really care about his personal life, everyone has their quirks some more odd than others. What I will always stick by is the dude could dance and sing like no one else at the time or even currently.

MJ and Quincy Jones were a fantastic team. Well written, well performed, well recorded, well produced. I disagree with Mocheake - I think Thriller was the overall better album, but Off the Wall was great, too.
