Interesting facts

Number Ones is a video album by American recording artist Michael Jackson. It was released on DVD on November 13, 2003 under the Epic Records record label, in conjunction with the promotion for Jackson's greatest hits album of the same name. The DVD, which is Jackson's fourth DVD album, contains fifteen music videos directed and produced by various people. It consists of music videos filmed and released by Jackson from 1979's Off the Wall to 2001's Invincible. As with the album, the DVD has four different covers.

Background

In 1972, while still a member of the band The Jackson 5, Michael Jackson released his first of what would be ten studio albums, Got to Be There. Four singles were taken from the album, although they were not promoted by music videos, and this pattern continued for his next three Motown studio albums, Ben (1972), Music & Me (1973) and Forever, Michael (1975).

Unlike in the past, Jackson released his debut music video for the lead single, "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough", from his 1979 album, Off the Wall, released on Epic Records/CBS. Jackson subsequently began releasing music videos for his singles to promote both the song itself and the album.
