Michael Jackson - Thriller (Full Version - Just Credits are cutted off)

Digitally remastered (by me :0) for optimum Sound & Picture Quality. Lyrics added for Karaoke-Fun.
"Thriller" is a 1984 hit single recorded by Michael Jackson for the Epic label. In the U.S., it reached number four on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and number one on the Radio & Records singles charts, while in the UK, it peaked at number ten. The 14-minute video is regarded by MTV as the greatest music video of all-time, and the song itself is considered to be one of Jackson's signature songs. The single was released slightly earlier in the United Kingdom, in November 1983.
The song remains popular as evidenced by sales of over 1,159,000 digital downloads in the U.S. alone and regular returns to the Billboard Hot Digital Songs chart, since the chart's inception in 2005.
Thriller was was the most expensive video of its time, costing US0,000 and less a conventional video and more a full-fledged short subject or mini-film: a horror film spoof featuring choreographed zombies performing with Jackson. The music was re-edited to match the video (filmed on the 3600 block of Union Pacific Avenue in East Los Angeles)
The video was choreographed by Michael Peters (who had worked with the singer on his prior hit "Beat It"), with Michael Jackson. The video also contains incidental music by film music composer Elmer Bernstein, who had previously also worked with Landis on An American Werewolf in London. The video (like the song) contains a spoken word performance by horror film veteran Vincent Price. Rick Baker assisted in prosthetics and makeup for the production.
