I wouldn't argue with that. Perhaps Thriller was more of an influence on white audiences.

Thriller is probably on there instead of Off The Wall because it is the best-selling album of all time (still, I think). I can remember when that was everywhere, you couldn't escape the songs off that album :banghead:

Thank God Michael decided to give up his music career for the more lucrative world of celebrity freakshows :spin: :evil4:

I think The Eagles Greatest Hits has surpassed Thriller as the best selling album of all time (in America, anyway), sadly enough. Of course, that doesn't count since it's a best of. Also seems like it crept up, whereas Thriller was a cultural phenomenon for about a year.

Yeah, that's like saying "well, we got rid of the nuclear radiation, and replaced it with black lung disease!" :evil4:

I hope to live in a time when Lou Reed or NO can have the best-selling album of all time...which will never happen, of course. But still...:shrug:

Lou Reed or NO? uh, I'll take NO! :crazy: Thriller seems terribly dated now, but anything is better than the Eagles!

Lou Reed is the man....or he was, for that brief period in the Seventies when Bowie introduced him to America when the VU were still a cult band that no one had heard of :shrug:

I'd rather see nuclear war in the Middle East than the Eagles with the best-selling album of all time :explode:
