I should've waited to post this after your post.

His classic "Thriller" is usually a popular choice for Halloween. Both the song and the music video.

But let's not forget about "Ghost" which is mostly a short film than a music video, but still has song, dance.

Yeah, Ghost has a cool "ghost-like" and "skeleton-like" dance choreography too.



But the theme of the song isn't as cool as Thriller.
Since it's talking about "ghost of jealousy" instead of real ghosts.

I thought that was Drew Carey playing the mayor, but turns out it was Micheal Jackson in makeup and fatsuit!

I wonder why would he went the trouble playing into major too while he could easily cast someone else.
That until he's start dancing.

Kid Cudi (who composed "Stars in the Sky" and portrayed Agent Mason in Knuckles TV Series) has deleted his tweet about Michael Jackson

Kid Cudi, in a now-deleted post, described Michael Jackson as “just music,” while expressing a desire to be remembered across multiple creative fields:
"Michael was the greatest, but he was just music."
And let’s just say, what he said didn’t land well with his fans or folks online afterwards.

You think he ever had a second thought before posting it to begin with?

If he was, he'd be ready for the backlash. But the fact that he deleted his tweet means he probably wasn't ready for that.

This Year's Halloween was Thriller's biggest streaming day ever.

MJ becomes the first artist with a Top 10 hit in six decades (U.S.) and one of only two to do it in the UK.
Thanks to all the fans for pushing it to No. 10 on the Hot 100 and a new peak at No. 9 on the UK singles chart!

He didn't had that little voice in his head that said "you probably shouldn't do that."

He can help himself to the conscious-voices in my head, I have too many.
