"Rod Temperton, the British songwriter best known for Michael Jackson's Thriller and Rock With You, has died.

Temperton died in London last week at the age of 66 after "a brief aggressive battle with cancer", Jon Platt of Warner/Chappell music publishing said.

Temperton's other hits included Off The Wall and Baby Be Mine for Jackson and Boogie Nights for his band Heatwave.

Temperton penned three songs for Off The Wall, which became Jackson's breakthrough solo album - the title track, Rock With You and Burn This Disco Out.

He went on to write three more for follow-up Thriller - the title track, which became one of Jackson's signature smashes, plus Baby Be Mine and The Lady in My Life.

They helped make Thriller the best-selling album of all time in the US, with 32 million copies sold.

His tunes have also been recorded by artists including Anita Baker, Donna Summer, Aretha Franklin and The Brothers Johnson.

Temperton won a Grammy Award in 1990 for his work on Birdland, from Quincy Jones's album Back on the Block.

He was nominated for two Oscars in 1986 for his work with Jones on the soundtrack for The Color Purple.

He once summed up his approach to songwriting: "The first criteria is write something you love first, and once you feel those hairs standing up on the back of your hand, you can go to the world."

In a statement released on Wednesday, Warner/Chappell's Jon Platt said: "His family is devastated and request total privacy at this, the saddest of sad times."

Thriller gets a lot of airplay this time of year, and is heard plenty at spooky, haunted, Halloween displays.

RIP

If I could figure out how to make a bed as comfortable as mine feels ten minutes before I have to get up, I'd be a billionaire.
 
That moment when it starts to sink in you're leaving a job you love and moving across the continent for a job you've always dreamed of. I've started to drink the city in with my eyes and wonder if or how it could miss me. It is a happy feeling, but broad, with moments of elation and terror and everything in between.

New job?

Congrats!!
