Video Wednesday: The Internet Does Thriller

Wednesday July 01, 2009 at 08:00 AM

I have to admit I'm borrowing heavily from my friend, Kevin, who put together this wonderful video playlist over at my day job of some of his favorite Internet videos of the late, great Michael Jackson.  That said, I wanted to share his hard work with you anyway.  Though I was never a major MJ fan - I wasn't camping out outside of his hotel rooms or anything - I always dug his music and one of my earliest memories is watching a Michael Jackson concert at Indaba co-founder Dan's house in 1990.  If I remember correctly, Dan's folks were the only ones who would buy the concert on pay-per-view so we wound up there and, again, it was a long time ago, but I think that same evening the Berlin Wall came down.  Anyways, here is how the Internet at large pays tribute to one the best pop songs of all time by one of the finest musicians of all time. RIP MJ. 

Prison Thriller

Indian Thriller

64-Voice Thriller

Wedding Thriller

And check this out even though it's not a video: Michael Jackson's influence on Hip Hop.  Amazing.
