The producer of “Thriller”, the late pop idol’s most famous song and perhaps one of the most famous music pieces in the world, has recently stated that he feels as if a part of himself died together with Michael Jackson. Quincy Jones had the following to say about the demise of “the king of pop”: “I am absolutely devastated at this tragic and unexpected news. For Michael to be taken away from us so suddenly at such a young age, I just don’t have the words. To this day, the music we created together on ‘Off The Wall,’ ‘Thriller’ and ‘Bad’ is played in every corner of the world and the reason for that is because he had it all. talent, grace, professionalism and dedication. He was the consummate entertainer and his contributions and legacy will be felt upon the world forever. I’ve lost my little brother and part of my soul has gone with him.” As always, it seems Michael Jackson had friends in high places and he will probably continue to do so. Even though dead, no one is likely to forget “Thriller” anytime soon.
