Billie Jean, a song composed by Michael Jackson, is now 3 decades old.  This song has a 29- second intro which reports say the producers wanted to be shortened from the track. But, the king of pop said no.  He argued that "that's the jelly of the song" and makes him want to dance. It was mixed 91 times before it was released.  The song was only the second single from MJ's Thriller album.  This song was also known for one of Michael's signature moves--the moonwalker. It came along with a music video which reports say MTV didn't want to play at first. Eventually, they put the video in rotation.  MJ wrote this song not for any x or girl in particular. He said in interviews that the song was based on groupies he and his brothers met on the road when he was still part of Jackson 5. MJ also had a good feeling about the song.  While writing the song, he knew Billie Jean would be a hit and it was.

Performed by Michael Jackson, Thriller smashed all records in 1982.  The song was initially titled ‘Starlight.’  After 100 plus more name studies, the song was aptly called Thriller.  This song also came out with a groundbreaking music video.   The material was 14 minutes long and was the longest promo material ever played on TV.   It stars the king of pop opposite Ola Ray as a young couple goofing around after watching a horror movie.   Then MJ turns into the undead leading a pack of Zombies. Everything was perfect in this video, from the short narrative, set designs, prosthetics, lighting down to the dance number.   Check out the shortened version of the video of MJ below: Thriller in Lego below: Check out the video above of Regine Tolentino and Rene Sagaran of Manouvers doing a dance tribute of "Thriller."
