Yesterday we learned there's going to be a documentary about the making of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" album. Michael's personal demo of "Beat It" was recently found. It's acapella, and Michael impressively sings all the instrumental parts AND the vocals.
He could play a little piano, but for the most part he didn't play any instruments. But he would write all the parts for a song in his head, including horn and string sections. And he would record the parts one at a time and then mix them together so other people could listen and work out the arrangements.

Michael Jackson Fans: Harry Styles Is Not The ‘King Of Pop’
Michael Jackson fans are not too happy that Rolling Stone's new issue has referenced Harry Styles as the "King of Pop."Rolling Stone referred to Michael Jackson as the "King Of Pop" in 1992.
The former One Direction singer is the October/November cover feature of the magazine's UK edition. On the cover, Harry is seen wearing a white furry coat, and holding a birthday cake with candles lit. "Harry Styles: How the new King of Pop set the music world aflame," reads the Rolling Stone front cover.
Tensions rose on social media from Jackson fans and Taj Jackson, Michael's nephew, even responded to the cover.
"There is no new King of Pop. You don't own the title @RollingStone, and you didn't earn it, my uncle did," Taj wrote on Twitter in a retweet of the magazine's cover. "Decades of dedication and sacrifice. The title has been retired. No disrespect to @Harry_Styles, he's mega talented. Give him his own unique title."
