Visionary: The Video Singles is a series of singles by Michael Jackson which was released in Europe between February 20, 2006 and June 26, 2006, and then released in the U.S. as a boxed set on November 14, 2006.

[edit] History

Jackson worked on the Visionary project as executive producer, giving final approval on the music and video editing and packaging design. Each week over a five-month period Sony BMG released 20 of Michael Jackson's biggest hit singles. Each single was issued as a DualDisc allowing each single to contain both the songs and their accompanying music videos.

The first CD single to be released as part of the Visionary box set was Jackson's 1983 hit "Thriller." It was released along with the collector's box on February 20, 2006. All the DualDisc singles, which featured a CD format on one side and a DVD format on the other, were eligible to chart on industry sales charts as they were released individually as regular music singles.
