But CBS Records wouldn’t pay for a third video from Thriller, and MTV had a policy of never paying for clips.

Before songwriter Rod Temperton came up with Thriller, Michael Jackson’s working title for the albums wasStarlight. Temperton, a British native formerly of the funk band Heatwave, also wrote “Baby Be Mine” and “The Lady in My Life” for Thriller(and earlier, had penned “Rock With You” and “Off the Wall” for Jackson).
The opening title card (“Due to my strong personal convictions, I wish to stress that this film in no way endorses a belief in the occult”) was inserted due to Jackson’s Jehovah’s Witness faith.

John Landis on the motivationsbehind making “Thriller” and its huge financial impact: “The reality is, it was a vanity video. Everything that happened on ‘Thriller’ happened because Michael wanted to turn into a monster. None of it was planned. I want to make that clear, because there was a course taught at the Harvard Business School on ‘Thriller,...
