1983 in music
Major Releases
Michael Jackson's Thriller, the most successful album not only of 1983, but of all time, was released in
1982 and began its epic domination of the music charts the following year,
1983. The album spawned seven hit singles and stayed on the US and UK charts for over three years. Michael was nominated for ten
Grammy Awards, of which he won eight: seven for the awe-inspiring album Thriller, and the other for the song "Someone in the Dark" featured in the movie
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. Thriller paved the way for countless other African-American artists' music to be aired on radio and MTV. Thriller has sold over 104 million copies, making it the greatest selling album of all time by an extremely large margin. Michael's domination of the 1980s was fueled by his follow-up hit album
Bad (released in
1987), which held the title of the second greatest album of all time for several years.
