Thriller 40th Anniversary

[Nite Line]

For a Michael Jackson video I would prefer to see Michael. I'm OK with MITM and Cry. Those I understand. But, generally, I want to see Michael himself.

This. There is tons of unreleased Michael Jackson footage. Surely, they can release some of that in a form of a music video for posthumous singles. But videos for Michael's posthumous singles always feature a bunch of tribute acts dancing and I don't really have any interest in that.

Weird. Boring. Unnecessary. Unimaginative.

A lyric video has to be as simple as possible so as to not distract attention from the upcoming, big release.

After all, a lyric video by definition is just a teaser (i.e., a short and simple introductory advertisement for the upcoming, big release) that people should easily forget when the upcoming, big release comes out.

And why is Sony managing Michael's social media? Whose other artist's social profiles are being managed by the record company?

This is also happens with other artists.

Keep in mind that record companies have evolved and they have become a multifaceted support network for their artists, so they can also manage the social media profiles of their artists.

This is because of the record companies' duty to guarantee a good Internet presence for their artists.

Agreed. Thank God for this!

 

[MJ5]

Agreed. Thank God for this!

you are talking about Disc 2?
Dolby Atmos songs are differently mixed than the lossless files we get out of the CD, true?

read the description. Literally says it's fan made. It's funny how fans do things better than the Estate.

I’m talking about the new Dolby Atmos mix of Thriller which was released today on Apple Music. The tracks are mixed differently for sure. So far there is no Dolby Atmos version of Thriller 40, just of the original.

Any idea what version of Thriller Apple is using?

Why didn’t MJ wear the same jacket he was wearing before he started singing?

 

[threepea11]

Why didn’t MJ wear the same jacket he was wearing before he started singing?

He came back to human when he sang, So his jacket un-zombified

 

[1nn5]

He came back to human when he sang, So his jacket un-zombified

So why the dancers didn't back to human when he sang ?

 

[MJ5]

So why the dancers didn't back to human when he sang ?

were they humans right before? think about it

 

[SmoothGangsta]

The zombies crawled out of the ground lol

 

[1nn5]

were they humans right before? think about it

I'm not talking about his appearance, but the jacket he used before starting singing.

It's called " Thriller " so it was more logical use the jacket he used when he started dancing with zombies

 

[rgusa8]

Yikes

 

[1nn5]

I feel that I asked a wrong question

 

[wonderouzmj]

Why didn’t MJ wear the same jacket he was wearing before he started singing?

Crazy question
Would've been cool to see zombie mj to sing at least once though.
But he did sing as a zombie for a second 3:17

Folks, just want to add a plug here for our Thriller 40 chat room - https://www.mjjcommunity.com/chat/room/thriller-40-chat.4/

Incredible. So the dancers died just for the clip? Love the dedication.

Yes, MJ hired real corpses, just like he hired real gang members for Beat It.

 

[1nn5]

Crazy question

Well maybe. But I think I would have been more logical if he sang with the zombie outfit like the dancers since he started dancing with it
