Billie Jean!

Billie Jean's greatest importance is that it launched the Michael Jackson era. A period when the entire population of the planet made a decision to follow the career of the biggest star.

The song stayed at the top of the charts for more than two months and made album Thriller as the biggest-selling record of all time.
Michael Jackson was 24 when he made Billboard chart history with his most iconic song.

When "Billie Jean" ascended to no. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 dated March 5, 1983, Jackson simultaneously became the first singer to top four pop and R&B charts.
Jackson remained a top the four charts for six weeks, which still stands as a record for male artists.

"Billie Jean" is also remembered for Jackson’s performance when he debuted his iconic Moonwalk dance on the NBC TV special Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever in 1983.

MTV  played the "Billie Jean" video in heavy rotation and after this, the video Thriller went on to sell an additional 10 million copies.

Today, on February 14th we are celebrating 30 years of certified Platinum Billie Jean.

Long live king of pop!
