Michael Jackson – “Scream”

Description

The choice of tracks for “Scream”reflects The King of Pops affection for this time of the year and its themes of costumes and disguise, darkness and light, character transformations and surprise.

Each track on “Scream” is remarkable in its own way. For example, Dirty Diana, was the fifth consecutive No. 1 song from the album Bad which shattered records for consecutive chart topping singles off a single album; Thriller, penned by Rod Temperton, was the seventh of an unprecedented seven Top 10 singles from Thriller, the biggest-selling album of all time; and the Top 5 hit Scream is the only duet between Michael Jackson and his sister Janet. Also included are fan favorites from The Jacksons albums Torture and This Place Hotel (the first single to be written, composed, and arranged solely by Michael); and, making its first appearance on a Michael Jackson album, Somebodys Watching Me, the international 1985 hit by Rockwell featuring an iconic hook sung by Michael.
