but "Billie Jean" has been my favorite song since I was like 3.

The older I've gotten, the more I appreciate the album from the technical aspect. The mixing on this joint is outstanding. The music surrounds you. Bruce Swedien is a muthafucker.

I remember we went on a trip to Oklahoma for a family reunion in like 92 and I had my Dad pop in my cassette of Thriller and it started to drag as we pulled into a rest area. He ejected it and the tape player had ate it and the tape was all fucked up. I still remember throwing the off white cassette into the red, circular garbage can. It was devastating, but I had the cd at home.

I have some more thoughts, but I'm late for class...
