Sleeker and more aggressive than Thriller — Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones pushed toward hard dance-funk with digital synths, punchy drum machines, and rock-edged attitude. 'Smooth Criminal' is a cinematic thriller in miniature, all tension and relentless groove. 'Man in the Mirror' builds from quiet confession to full-gospel crescendo. 'The Way You Make Me Feel' is pure strutting charm. Jackson wrote 62 songs and recorded dozens of demos before Jones narrowed it to 11 tracks. Five singles hit No. 1. The title track was originally written as a duet with Prince, who declined.
