After 25 years, Michael Jackson plans on re-releasing the biggest selling album in recording history. Grab your young, your old, your deaf, blind and dumb — sit ‘em down in front of the TV and blast this for nostalgic purposes ONLY!

Even though the good folks in the music biz aren’t talkin’ about a new album and you’ve only heard whispers of collaboration with Chris Brown, his die-hard fans are eager for the February 12th release date so they can flood the stores in droves.

Jackson is heavily involved in putting together a 25th anniversary edition of his best-selling album, “Thriller.” Those with long memories will recall that “Thriller” is considered the biggest-selling pop album of all time, succeeding Carole King’s “Tapestry” and Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon” and breaking every record it came near.

Jackson plans on working with Kanye West, Akon, will.i.am and others for the “extras” portion of the re-released CD package. Below is the trailer and the tracklisting for the album. Keep that dream alive for a new album though.
