Thriller must be Jacko's best selling song of digital era. Has anyone examined how big portion of Thriller's impressive digital sales have been Halloween-related and how much it sold after Jacko's death?

"Thriller" returned to the top 10 on iTunes around Halloween in 2006 and 2007 - so it was surely his best-selling track before his death.

I thought so too. But it probably sold quite a lot after he passed away. I remember those digital sales were posted here at some point. Anyway, it's perhaps the only song that has had two different reasons to be heavily revived.

Still shocking Thriller never hit #1 back in the day, although most Americans swear it did.

It was the 7th single, most everyone had the album by then. This was more about the MTV video than the song at that point. (back then the M in MTV meant music)

The Thriller single was repressed (!) so it debuted at a startling #20 (back in those days one of a handful of the highest debuts ever). 2m is correct when he asserts that almost everyone owned the song back then by virtue of owning the album. Also the single didn't feature the Vincent Price rap. The song did top Radio & Records' CHR / Pop chart, though, so if it was a #1 airplay song, sales must have been relatively weak.

I know, but I doubt they're a threat anymore. She should have #1 next week for sure.

1 week runs are better than never any #1's on the main chart, ever, like Taylor.
LMFAO is killing. They've jumped back into T10 AGAIN and look like they'll take #1 sometime soon.

LMFAO will fall again starting monday... Rihanna should have 2 weeks at #1 at least, hopefully 3-4.
Good Feeling down to #6 but staying steady, looks like it's another hit for him. :)

jebsis, that is true- but, I don't think I'd say that "Thriller" didn't hit No. 1 because everyone who wanted the album had the track by that time. While that may have played a part to some degree, it still was a platinum-certified single,(unlike the few singles that preceded it, which were not even certified). It was just a matter of not having the most points in a given week to come out on top. :) As you mentioned, it was "repressed," and it's probable that the peak airplay and sales didn't match up. Its high debut indicates that it built up airplay for a number of weeks before the single release.

Its high debut indicates that it built up airplay for a number of weeks before the single release. It was not certified gold or platinum or 5 years. Airplay into the Hot 100 was based on a sampling of airplay playlists, not very scientific. The 14 minute video was already airing on MTV for several weeks. The initial demand stemmed from the video and peaked fairly quickly. If this were the 3rd single rather than the 7th it would have hit #1. Everyone already had the album (and I do mean everyone - it was at 20 million copies by 1984 and only 29 million today)

Top 300- Justin Bieber ChristmasMimi has a duet credit- so, at least she will get 50% of the total chart points (as few as they may be for a limited-run single) for its run, and not 30% as she would if it were a "featuring." And, LOL @ "SuperFestive!" is a tad much, though. What's next year- UltraFestive"? 44. Mistletoe - Justin Bieber 109. All I Want for Christmas Is You (SuperFestive!) [Duet With Mariah Carey] - Justin Bieber & Mariah Carey 124. Drummer Boy (feat. Busta Rhymes) - Justin Bieber 125. The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On an Open Fire) [feat. Usher] - Justin Bieber 137. Christmas Love - Justin Bieber 200. Santa Claus Is Coming to Town - Justin Bieber 213. Fa La La (feat. Boyz II Men) - Justin Bieber 214. All I Want Is You - Justin Bieber 219. Someday At Christmas - Justin Bieber 225. Only Thing I Ever Get for Christmas - Justin Bieber 234. Home This Christmas (feat. The Band Perry) - Justin Bieber 252. Silent Night - Justin Bieber 261. Christmas Eve - Justin Bieber

If MC even gets part credit for AIWFCIY and it beats that BS H100 position, I'll be happy. I can already read the stories. MC's AIWFCIY peaked at 83, but JB has helped new Grandma MC reach a new peak, etc. Ugh.

Oh, I'd think it should peak at least in the top 40. I'd think. But once the holidays get near, I'd guess that the original will rank higher.

Wait, didn't Justine say she didn't like Pigriah's music? -.- I can see they're trying to get to that #1 spot (1st for JB & 19th for MC).

Not sure, whether his team or himself who had the idea of collaborating with Mariah. Mariah herself definitely already heard about Bieber's diss to her. But she's getting lots of cash, and the duet may gain interest in her again, so why not? And there will be a music video and some performances from both as they promised. Definitely they want to maximize the exposure of this duet. Anyway, have you seen her latest body? if you still call her Pigriah, then not sure whether you eyes are normal or not.
