    This brings me back to my 8th grade year of marching band. The seniors were allowed, every year, to pick out three songs of their choice, and this was it! This version as a matter of fact! They did the dance to it, and then they hopped back in to play the rest! Thanks so much for posting this! It brings back memories.

      +Allie Burns Stay with it! It's going to be a hard song at first. There are a lot of articulations in this arrangement. I love Paul Murtha's work. He does an amazing job on every arrangement. Good luck this year! Have a great year of marching band! One under you belt, and four more afterwards!

    One of the reasons that I PERSONALLY think that band is better (just an opinion, please don't reply saying 'OMG ORCH IS WAY BETTER') is that we get to dance when we play! During this song and many others, the entire saxophone section (me too!) in the top band in middle school dance randomly! Us four like to plan it out, but it's so much fun and when we played for the elementary kids, we were dancing all over the place! My little sister said that everyone was talking about us.

    Lyrics
    It's close to midnight
    Something evil's lurking from the dark
    Under the moonlight
    You see a sight that almost stops your heart
    You try to scream
    But terror takes the sound before you make it
    You start to freeze
    As horror looks you right between the eyes
    You're paralysed
    'Cause this is thriller
    Thriller night
    And no-one's gonna save you
    From the beast about to strike
    You know it's thriller
    Thriller night
    You're fighting for your life
    Inside a killer
    Thriller tonight, yeah
    You hear the door slam
    And realise there's nowhere left to run
    You feel the cold hand
    And wonder if you'll ever see the sun
    You close your eyes
    And hope that this is just imagination
    (Girl)
    But all the while
    You hear a creature creeping up behind
    You're outta time
    'Cause this is thriller
    Thriller night
    There ain't no second chance
    Against the thing with the forty eyes, girl
    Thriller (ooh, ooh)
    Thriller night
    You're fighting for your life
    Inside a killer
    Thriller tonight
    Night creatures calling
    The dead start to walk in their masquerade
    There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time (they're open wide)
    This is the end of your life
    They're out to get you
    There's demons closing in on every side
    They will possess you
    Unless you change that number on your dial
    Now is the time
    For you and I to cuddle close together, yeah
    All through the night
    I'll save you from the terror on the screen
    I'll make you see
    That this is thriller
    Thriller night
    'Cause I can thrill you more
    Than any ghoul could ever dare try
    (Thriller) Ooh, ooh
    (Thriller night)
    So let me hold you tight
    And share a
    (Killer, diller, chiller)
    (Thriller here tonight)
    'Cause this is thriller
    Thriller night
    Girl, I can thrill you more
    Than any ghoul could ever dare try
    (Thriller) Ooh, ooh
    (Thriller night)
    So let me hold you tight
    And share a
    (Killer, thriller) Oh
    I'm gonna thrill you tonight
    Darkness falls across the land
    The midnight hour is close at hand
    Creatures crawl in search of blood
    To terrorise y'alls neighborhood
    And whosoever shall be found
    Without the soul for getting down
    Must stand and face the Hounds of Hell
    And rot inside a corpse's shell
    I'm gonna thrill you tonight
    (Thriller, ooh, ooh, yeah)
    I'm gonna thrill you tonight
    (Thriller, oh, darling)
    I'm gonna thrill you tonight
    (Thriller)
    Ooh, ooh, babe
    I'm gonna thrill you tonight
    (Thriller) Oh, darling
    Thriller night
    Ooh
    The foulest stench is in the air
    The funk of forty-thousand years
    And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
    Are closing in to seal your doom
    And though you fight to stay alive
    Your body starts to shiver
    For no mere mortal can resist
    The evil of the thriller
