#63 of VJ Samsonite's Top 100 80's Dance Hits Countdown: "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" by Michael Jackson (1982)
We are not worthy, we are not worthy...all hail the late-great King of Pop once again, I told you he would be making a few appearances on this countdown, naturally, and so #63 is.....Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough by the undisputed King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson. I definitely would have mentioned this before, but I must continue with the discussion on what is to be done about this empty throne??? Who will be the next?? Madonna is no doubt still the reigning Queen of Pop, although I know that Lady Gaga fancies herself to be next to succeed that throne, yet, she will have to produce a minimum of 4 or 5 more top 20 full studio length albums before she can even be considered I would say. Both MJ and Madonna were so insanely prolific that it will be hard for anyone to fill their royal shoes. I suppose that sports are like that too, the new masters just keep raising the bar higher and higher, but someone will come along eventually, no doubt about that. Back to the song, it comes off of MJ's 1982 release album Thriller. Now, many of you may already know that Thriller still remains the best-selling album worldwide of all time, having sold around 110 million copies worldwide. In the United States Thriller is tied at #1 best-selling album of all time with The Eagles: Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975)," but that is merely just in the USA, and as I said worldwide (which really is what matters most) Thriller is still #1 bar-none. Stay tuned for more...
