I was thinking that was great & as an adult, Jackson would get better! No one did it like the King of Pop (possible exception: the Godfather of Soul, the immortal James Brown)!!!!
You said what I was thinking. Their moves were so precise! Michael would do his thing just enough to not overshadow his brothers imo. Family music dynasty. 🎶🎶🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Michael Jackson was from another planet. He was out of this world!!! Extraordinary!!! Super Extraordinary!!! I will never see nothing like him ever again. JAH bless you Michael Jackson!
Yeah he loves his brothers so much since most of the time he felt responsible for them being their older brother and all. Not trying to State the obvious, it's just nice when people talk and the Jackson's the family and not the Jackson's the performers all though they were great
Plz Tito was smiling 😁 at his little brother Michael GET Down with his robot 🦾🕺🏾💫. Tito was happy to see Mike shine...can't say the same for Jermaine IDC I SAID IT JERMAINE WAS JEALOUS OF HIS LITTLE BROTHER MICHAEL ...MJ was kind enough to not admit it but we knew 😐@@MusicLoverPearson
Music Man I assumed that they were bongos, but I didn't want to look like an idiot and call it something that I wasn't certain of. I generalized it, and technically speaking bongos are considered drums, according to Wikipedia and many other sources. :)
James Bond I would have to agree. I love his brilliance when it came to perfecting his craft. He certainly did. Watching him dance is quite intriguing to see. And I would also have to agree on Bruno Mars. He is also a great performer.
It's crazy how even though Michael did this robot as a teenager he still out- danced this generation of performers and he wasn't even at his full peek yet
I mean high tops are coming back, so maybe it's going in reverse, so in a few years Jheri curls will come back and them after that Afros will come back
Fair enough. I'll say he was an awful, terribly violent and emotionally abusive father with a horrible temper and bad drinking problem. He was also a pathetic, absolutely unfaithful husband who would put his dick in any hole, including one in the fence. Joe had almost no ability to show love, thought that any money his family made was his, and was a problem compulsive gambler who couldn't keep a promise.
I remember watching this when I was Eight Years Old. When he started Dancing The Robot, I knew he was going to leave his Brothers behind and boy was I right.
The cool thing is that he was an enormous success as a solo artist----gargantuan----but even at his absolute peak, he still did the Victory Tour with his brothers----even though it's pretty clear it was a pain in the ass to him. They needed it a lot more than he did, but he went along with it anyway.
Glad to have been alive to enjoy Michael and the Jackson's. There will never be another who was born with as much talent as him. Absolutely amazing!! Miss you mike!!
@@brandonjackson3641 well mr Brandon I guess you’re not the only person who thinks so. Just saw the headlines of an article that says he is the Michael Jackson of this day and age. Thanks for sharing your opinion in a kind and calm manner. All the best!!!
You can see how Michael was already so mature in his entertainment skills…the foot work and body moves was being fully developed…amazing I love him right there, his voice is so bright and sweet and he’s already a smooth operator lol
I don't think there will be anyone better than Michael he was so talented he is the best, even as a kid! He mastered the moonwalk, and just brought joy to the world. He had a lot of potential, and died at the age of 50. And his voice was so powerful it brought people together through different cultures. We miss you MJ. Your music will be the best forever.
Yes. So many people asume the robot dance is a thing from the 80´s. This is from 1973/74 and, considering that many of that kind of moves were incorporated by the artists after they had seen someone doing them (in a club or in the audience at their own concerts), this dance must be, most likely, from the late60´s early 70´s. You know,... everything is already invented!!
I love and grew up listening to bands like the Jackson 5 and back in the 60's with the British Invasion. I worked in the music industry for almost 38 yrs and really i love great music ! ✌🎸🎧🎵🎼🎶😎
Mikes dancing was always something I loved. Everyone talks about how amazing his voice was, but damn he really could dance. His dancing is so underrated. I'm not sure if its true but I think he taught Janet how to dance also. I could be wrong tho. Regardless he could really dance.
So glad MJ nephew 💙 is playing His uncle (the Michael Jackson movie). I hope he does a good job and looks like the young MJ as the thos song I looooove it ❤
Michael Jackson was break dancing before anyone ever knew what breaking was. This is 1974 break dancing came out 7-8 yrs later 1981+82... Mike is the King of pop n lock. Doing the robot before anyone n still can't nobody match or copy his moves perfectly or better..
Michael DID perfect the moves that he saw others doing on the streets of L.A., but don’t forget the real innovators, the street dancers! Michael always noted this whenever he was asked “from WHERE do you get your moves”? Mike ALWAYS gave those dancers their proper credit. A real gentleman, Michael was until the end! RIP MJ. You really made us all happier people! 👍🙏🙂
+John Smith This was the last major hit that they did before The Brothers sans Jermaine went to Epic. They got slapped with a 20 Million Dollar Lawsuit and it was in litigation for Five Years where Motown accepted $500.000.00 from the Brothers and the right to The Jackson Five Name and Catalogue.
Because it showed that this would be the last major performance of all of the brothers for a very long time. It was also their last major hit at Motown and while Michael would be a Superstar with Off The Wall & Thriller, Jermaine would find out the hard way that being loyal doesn't always pay off.
To me it just showed how things would change dramatically within the next couple of years. I think that after seeing so many acts career go downhill after leaving Motown (Florence Ballard), it was nice to see an act who would continue to perservere.
Thank you so much for this post. The Jacksons were so sharp, so crisp, so beautiful. This video captures Michael Jackson as a revelation. 70"s magic. Wonderful.
Just everything about this. The song, the riffs, the fros, the fashion, the dancing. Lawd.
it was a beautiful time.....lol
Them Sev’Um deees. You can’t be it
Everything was so funky
You got that right!!! Lawd!!! lmao
It's is fuhhhh-liiiiiiie
No matter what era, That man could always move.
Mike Sheng one of his brothers look at him and said holy cow is that a robot or Micheal
89
Mike Sheng of course he is the best
If micheal could do the robot why can’t the robots do the micheal
I was thinking that was great & as an adult, Jackson would get better! No one did it like the King of Pop (possible exception: the Godfather of Soul, the immortal James Brown)!!!!
We talk about Michael so much but checkout is brothers. All his brothers were talented singing, dancing, and playing instruments at the same time.

All of the brothers except for Jermaine and Tito were unreal doing the Robot.

yes he's alive
I keep thinking how savage the father was when I see all the coordinated dance moves.
dallia1355 joe jack wasnt bullshitting
By this time he wasn’t over them anymore
That spin move and robot was how Mike learned to dodge Joe's belt then he sing, "Hee Hee."
His father was a bastard!
STFU...always negative
Mike was Genius. The boy was a beast.
Beast even when he earned “the King of POP, Rock And Soul” title from Elizabeth Taylor in 1989
I love the way his brothers was looking at him 😍😍 they were just smiling like some of that wasn't rehearsed but Mike killed that shit! I love him!!!
Fantastic almost fifty years later. There is no way I could ever do those moves even when I was that young. We miss you Michael.
Yep. ..and it's hard to imagine any bands today having dance moves & rhythm like that! ( it's almost anti-grunge .. 😂)
Randy was so adorable
Michael sings and holds the mic and moves with absolute authority.
It's like at 1:02, when he spun, he transformed into this dancing machine robot. lol.
And you see little randy in the back playing the drums. :)

Wow, I feel like I've just gone through a time machine. They were all so very talented.
Michael, you are the epitome of what real talent represents. Your footwork and spins are amazing. I can't stop watching you dance. I miss you.
bring back the afros!
They are back! Especially for women.
I mean high tops are coming back, so maybe it's going in reverse, so in a few years Jheri curls will come back and them after that Afros will come back
I know that's right! Bring them back.

Best Robot ever. Best anything ever.
I feel like you could play this song on the radio and half the population would be like "Yo this new Bruno Mars song really slaps."
The entire group was great. Watching Michael step in that line after the robot was sumn else.
