Michael Jackson’s iconic “Thriller” has officially joined YouTube’s Billion Views Club, making him the first artist from the 20th century to have four videos surpass this incredible milestone. Alongside “Billie Jean,” “Beat It,” and “They Don’t Care About Us,” this achievement proves that MJ’s success is unbeatable. Directed by John Landis, the groundbreaking video—known for its amazing choreography, chilling transformations, and Vincent Price’s unforgettable voice-over—has become a cultural phenomenon.
For over 40 years, “Thriller” has dominated pop culture, frequently referenced in movies, TV shows, and beyond. It’s also the most-downloaded Halloween-themed hit of all time.
In 2009, the same year Michael passed, “Thriller” became the first music video inducted into the National Film Registry for being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically important.”
With this milestone, “Thriller” continues to prove that Michael Jackson is more than a music legend—he’s a force of nature, unmatched and unstoppable.
