DEF: Michael Jackson “Billie Jean”
Part of the overwhelming success of Michael Jackson‘s Thriller album came from the performance of its seven Top 10 singles. The biggest hit of the bunch, and one of the biggest hits of Jackson’s career, was “Billie Jean,” which exactly 35 years ago climbed to the top of Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart for a seven-week reign. To commemorate that anniversary, “Billie Jean” by Michael Jackson is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
