Michael Jackson is hoping his comeback album will be so much of a classic, that he's reportedly told the LP's songwriters that it has to better his hit album 'Thriller'.
One of the writers for the LP is Ne-Yo, who told The Mirror: "Michael's new album has to be amazing. I've already submitted some songs but we have no idea when it's coming out. He keeps putting it off."
"Michael is very nervous as he knows he's the underdog and people want him to fail. It's tough when all eyes are on him and there is so much young competition out there."
"This album needs to be better than Thriller. He wants killer melodies."
Speaking of his meeting with Jackson, the 'Closer' hitmaker said: "My hands were shaking like never before. But the great thing is that I get to work with my idol and he is really cool."
