Mariah Carey may mark November 1 as the beginning of her seasonal reign as Queen of the holidays, but King of Pop Michael Jackson‘s timeless classic continues to rule over its predecessor: Halloween.
Perennially, 1983’s ‘Thriller’ – the title track to Jackson’s sixth solo album (the best-selling LP of all-time) – scares its way back into public consciousness as a festive fixture for Halloween.
This year, however, it made its highest bounce back ever thanks to a streaming and digital download push. Landing at #19 on the refreshed tally, ‘Thriller’ now makes MJ the only act to nab a Hot 100 top 20 hit in each of the last six decades.
Thanks to “Thriller” this week, @michaeljackson has now earned top 20 hits on the #Hot100 in the 1970s, 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s and 20s.
He also had one in the 60s, but as a member of the Jackson 5 (“I Want You Back” hit top 20 in December 1969 before hitting No. 1 in January).
