The finest example of perfect disco pop, and a record that should be prescribed to musical snobs and manic depressives. The album is a true ambassador of what pop music can be. Jackson whoops and dances through a suite of unforgettable melodies that should be danced to with a smile on your face. Each track offers at least one musical hook, whether it is the beauty of 'Human Nature' (who can resist the 'dada dada da da da') or the 'whoo whoo' of 'Billie Jean'. It's all too good.
Editorial Reviews
[A] magnificent helping of pop history, due in no small part to Quincy Jones's immaculate production.
The Word
4 stars out of 5 -- [I]t's genius....This is a profoundly quirky and omnivorous R&B mash-up, making room for hard-rock guitar and soft-serve balladry.

3 stars out of 5 -- [T]racks like 'Wanna Be Starting Something' remain slabs of total pop, whose genius should never by obscured by a blizzard of sales stats.
Uncut
5 stars out of 5 - ...The music stands undimmed by time....delivers some of the greatest ever pop-soul-dance-whatever...hardly a weak moment, and still no one goes 'aow' quite like Michael Jackson.

[A] masterpiece....THRILLER was a collection of songs that cohered as the statement of a young artist proclaiming his freedom...

Ranked #20 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time - ...There was a time when he was truly the King of Pop. This is it...
Rolling Stone (20031211)
5 stars out of 5 -- THRILLER was MJ at his breathiest and most salacious, and his most beautifully fragile....[A] work of genius.
