That moment you forget that god awful George Michael and Garth Brooks were actually popular at one point.  Eminem had a more impressive run than I thought.  No Pearl Jam or Green Day was surprising.

Released Nov 30, 1982, the timing of it becoming huge in people’s lives varied after that date

Thriller was a total cultural takeover, maybe the last one of its ilk in music?

 

It was my senior year in HS, i grew too old to care much about Top 40 shortly thereafter
