No Cubed, Thriller would be considered retro or 80's pop, not Classical. As stated before classical music would be symphonic or operatic music from pre-1900's. Motzart, Beethoven, Bach or Wagner are examples of classical musicians. Carmen, Tocata and Fugue, Peter and the Wolf(the actual symphony, not the Disney cartoon), Swan Lake, the Nutcracker Ballet music- those are classical pieces.

Yes, but that will change over time.

Classical takes over the Baroque period around 1750 and last until 1900.

Cubed, you got a thing for 80s' music,right? I have a playlist that might interest you that I created some time ago. I recently logged back in and added back some songs which videos were deleted. I would like to rearrange the order,but without the shuffle option no big deal. Anyway enjoy,Cubed or anyone else for that matter.

Thriller might eventually become "classic pop" but certainly NOT "classical" MikeandRaph is absolutely right on the definition of that.

Thriller is already "classic" pop just as 90s bands are considered "classic" rock and you hear Nirvana and even Limp Bizkit. We're in the mid teens of the 2000's but as soon as we get closer to 2020 all those 00's pop/rock/hardcore bands that can still get some play now will be seen as ancient as 80s pop/rock/metal bands sounded to me when I was a kid in 1999.

Here's another great classical tune, "Under the boardwalk."

Bonus: Bruce Willis is in this video singing it from 1987:



I was just a kid when all this was happening, its amazing how much I missed.

1990's pop-rock is now considered Retro, as it's usually after 20 years.
