The 25th anniversary edition of Michael Jackson's Thriller sold 166,000 copies in its first week of release, but Billboard has not listed the King of Pop in their top 200, Variety reports.
The new edition of the old classic hit the charts at No. 1 in France, No. 2 in Germany, Australia, Holland, Norway and Switzerland, and No. 3 in the U.K, according to Variety.
Yet, Billboard says that the album is actually classified as a catalog release, so it is not eligible to rank on the top 200 chart.
Do you think this fair? What do you think of this re-release (take a listen)? What were you doing when Thriller was released the first time, and more importantly ... what were you wearing?
