I have no idea why this keeps getting reverted. Michael Jackson ''did'' perform an escape illusion during the Dangerous Tour performance of this song. He went into a coffin and disappeared. Period. This doesn't even need a source. It's not even a claim. It's like saying he wore black shoes. You guys are taking this text link stuff way too literally. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/81.141.18.128|81.141.18.128]] ([[User talk:81.141.18.128|talk]]) 04:43, 20 March 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

:Sorry to break it to you, but things such as how he performs the song do need reliable sources - which are not videos from Youtube or tree links. Users, such as Pyrrhus16, are not taking "stuff way too literally", they are going by what Wikipedia guidelines say. If you do not like it, do not edit on this site, its as simple as that.

American Werewolf
I just added a line highlighting that John Landis came to this project shortly after directing An American Werewolf in London. My guess would be that that film was a significant influence on Jackson wanting to make a vazz in this style. There are probably more connections too. In particular does anyone know whether other people were involved on both projects - makeup artists, special effects or art direction? -- Solipsist 07:00, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Merge
I can't see why these two were split; every other article on a single has a section on any relevant video (often bloated with blow-by-blow descriptions of every tedious clichéd detail). These two articles are short enough to be combined. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 16:49, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
- I think it's time the Music videos split off from the articles that specifically refer to the song. IMHO, I believe the best place to start this trend is with Thriller. In this example, the notability of the video transcends merely noting it on a song page. This importance is illustrated with the new iTunes video downloading service - and Thriller, not surprisingly, is in the top 10 of most downloaded. When people discuss Michael Jackson's songs, Billie Jean is almost always mentioned as his best (and probably his most listened to) - but when the discussion switches to his music videos - Thriller, the music video - stands out alone uncontested. I think it's important to make this distinction. In due time, the Thriller (music video) article will grow much larger than the article about the song.--The lorax 17:15, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
Lead Guitar
Was it just me who heard Eddie Van Halen played lead guitar on this track-the-muffin-man- 19:36, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
Michael Jackson getting a Co-Writing Credit...?
In the Thriller album booklet, Rod is listed as the only composer of this song, so i'm gonna remove Michael's co-writing credit from this page, unless someone has a source for it.

Bollywood version
If you go to youtube and type in somethng like "Thriller Indian" you'll see an Indian version of this song. I beleive this should be mentioned in the article, I'm very curious If Jackson filed lawsuit for plagurism. THROUGH FIRE JUSTICE IS SERVED! 01:36, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
Cheap Thrills
Shouldnt Herve's 'Cheap Thrills' be mentioned in the sampled section? FM [ talk to me | show contributions ] 15:21, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
Big Brother use.
Can someone more knowledgable on the topic of Big Brother confirm which series and more importantly which country this was refering to. Although I do also think it's not really even worth mentioning since the song has been used in heaps of TV shows and movies. 220.233.171.88 (talk) 09:51, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Super Why What?
The last entry under pop culture TV has such bad grammar that I can't work out what it's saying. Anybody? <Karlww (contribs|talk) 14:49, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
Guild Wars
The Necromancer dance in Guild Wars is Thriller, perhaps this fact should go in somewhere? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pincushion Bunny (talk • contribs) 05:02, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
Larry Williams died in 1980
Larry Williams is credited as playing Saxophone and flute on Thriller, however his Wikipedia page lists him as having died of a gunshot wound to the head in 1980.
Does this need to be corrected?
soliloquy
I don't think it should be called a soliloquy, Vincent Price is not talking to himself, we do not hear his thoughts... He is narrating, talking directly to the audience. Think about it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.196.166.174 (talk) 17:20, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
Who wrote the lyrics for this poem? Vincent Price? abelson (talk) 19:00, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
Single
Can someone settle this once and for all? When was this released? January 1982 or 1984? hbdragon88 (talk) 22:36, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- The album article says that the album was recorded from April to November 1982. I doubt that it was released in January 1982, but then, when? hbdragon88 (talk) 18:19, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
Charts
I'm going to remove the Swiss charts position for 1983/1984 section, because the link to the source hasn't got any information on it and on the swiss charts site, it says Thriller, the song, entered the charts for the first time in 2006. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AndroidOfNotreDame (talk • contribs) 19:51, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
Great job Crystal Clear x3

Thriller In The Night???
I never heard anyone say Thriller "In The" Night during this song.
All I hear is "Thriller, Thriller Night." Is the source correct?--108.2.4.225 (talk) 01:34, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
- The source above is a blog on AOL, lol. Everybody knows the real lyrics are not "in the night"!
- First off, to the person above me (the person who has been edit waring over the live performances of the song), sign your post(s). Second, Wikipedia is not based on fact, its based on what reliable sources say-AOL Music is a reliable source. Crystal Clear x3 [talk] 09:02, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
Magic trick during live version
I have no idea why this keeps getting reverted. Michael Jackson did perform an escape illusion during the Dangerous Tour performance of this song. He went into a coffin and disappeared. Period. This doesn't even need a source. It's not even a claim. It's like saying he wore black shoes. You guys are taking this text link stuff way too literally. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.141.18.128 (talk) 04:43, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
