Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” strikes like a beast, rising from No. 32 to No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 dated Nov. 15, granting the late King of Pop a new chart longevity record.
With the song, which hit No. 4 on the Hot 100 in 1984, Jackson, who died in 2009, becomes the first artist ever to rank in the top 10 in six distinct decades (the 1970s, ‘80s, ‘90s, 2000s, ‘10s and now ‘20s).
