Oh my gosh, Michael is smiling throughout the whole entire song, you can tell he's really enjoying it... And he did this with every song he sang in the Jackson 5! So cute. He is the cutest child star ever.
+Rosee Negri Rosee, yeah I read that Berry Gordy of Motown trained the Jacksons in stage presence because he felt newer and younger artists weren't properly exposed to the customs of "white America". He trained the Jacksons in stage presence, smiling, dancing, hair afros, and their clothes and outfits. He essentially made them what they are and groomed them to cross over into all of America.
It is known by some, that the road to rich and fame ask us not to sacrifice our time and to have talent. Road to rich and fame ask from us a dead family line as you must end up sacrificing them all, if want to remain alive and rich and famous. And if we bother to listen, then we hear them all admitting that a dead family member or a dead friend, or a dead band member was needed for the album to sell. - sinister and very dark, but true nevertheless.
WOW, I feel such a longing feeling of sadness, just watching Michael, when he was younger, and then knowing how some hateful ass people tried to destroy him when he got older.. He will always have a place in my heart!!!
man micheal jackson sings better then anybody on this planet honestly its 2011 and no one haven't measure up to this man. he was truly a gift to this world. rip mike
I love this performance. The funny thing is im not supposed to be using UA-cam but I always make exceptions for myself when I want to watch The Jackson 5 performances. So much magic in this. Their perspectives through life as some of the biggest stars. Black stars at that just seems magical when they’re on stage. Not sure of their personal lives but there was something special about them hitting the stage.
First off, respect to the family, secondly, Jermaine wore a wig. Best Fro's of all time? 1) Michael Jackson 2) Shirley Hemphill 3) Jeff Daniels 4) Leon Silvers
Much ❤ love to the Jacksons my favorite group for the last forty seven years the Jacksons was is and will always be the real thing this gives me chills look at little Randy Jackson on the congo drums in the background admiring his famous brothers ❤❤ Rest in peace Beautiful Tito and Michael Jackson we love and miss you ❤
This is a great cover of the song. They changed the tempo and got into it. Look at their faces, they are enjoying the groove. There skin looks so beautiful and vibrant. Another thing, this is something that rappers do not do. They don't do each other songs. You really don't get that too much nowadays. But in the days of Motown people allowed other people to sing their songs. This is really a nice rendition. They look like they're actually enjoying themselves and not singing out of obligation or pressure. Very nice.
I just love the way Micheal comes in here its so beautiful and smooth like silk but you still feel the passion in his voice from the emotions of the song itself you wouldn't know it was a cover if you didn't know before they sung it Micheal definitely added an extra razzle dazzle to the track💯💯
People can say all the negative comments they want about Michael, but in the end he was without a doubt the greatest entertainer of all time; a world wide cutural phenomenen and prodigy. If we could live a thousand lifetimes, we will never see this kind of talent again.
You can see it here man... Mike was starting to let that beast out. All the head pops and dance steps in between the choreographed moves. Unstoppable. GOAT.
I saw a interview with Bell Biv Devoe during the Soul Train awards Red carpet ceremony. During the interview Tito Jackson came from the crowd to see how BBD was doing the group was very happy to see Tito, Rick bell said during the interview I quote everything that we did was because of them (New Edition) you see not everyone gonna be like Mike someone had to be Tito someone have to be Jackie someone had to be Jermaine someone had to be Marlon. Everything that they did we try to do the same. That shows that the Jackson 5 one of the most greatest groups in music history.
I'm two years younger than Michael was and had such a crush in the early 70's. The psychedelic outfits and their harmonies bring back such good memories...and sadness that Michael couldn't be happy inside with his own natural looks.
Such amazing talent...All of them!!! Jermaine always had such a great soulful voice, along with some real soulful basslines! Thanks so mush for posting this gem in HQ!
man this really brought back memories. i remember seeing them sing this song a the flip wilson show. this was great. there can never be another group like the J-5. their timing was oh so perfect. thanks for posting this;and for me to see this again after all of these years,it's just so amazing how fresh this performance of theirs still is.
So wonderful! my eyes were focused steadily on Michael Jackson the whole time. His smile alone is worth paying for. Love their choreography at 0:25 - 0:35
There is a glow to this beautiful little boy's face when he performs. It goes beyond talent. He was made to do this... Truly one of a kind. Great quaility video thank you.
Mike Jackson is the real thing my Lord what a beautiful person . l miss him so. Never knew him other than through his greatness and music and kindness.
Thank you so very much for posting this outstanding quality video. I never saw the Jackson 5 performing The Real Thing before. I heard Tammi Terrell and Marvin Gaye deliver this song. Michael was so sweet in this performance. The brothers were wonderful. The Jackson 5 were extraordinary in their stage performance. We were so blessed to have The Jackson 5 in our lives. Michael looked happy having the opportunity to share his gifts with so many. Love and respect always to my beloved Michael!
I know this is not a new video, but I came here from an article posted on Johnny Jackson. As the author said, Johnny and Ronnie were the unsung members of the J5. The author mainly points to Berry Gordy as failing to not only recognize these two talented musicians, but failing to pay them any royalties for their contributions to the J5 sound. I saw them all in 1970. I read where Johnny was born in 1955, which means he was only 15 and playing the drums like a veteran. The music business is so dirty. Eddie Kendricks was once asked if he would ever write a book. He said if he couldn't tell the gospel, he didn't want to say anything. I really hope someone bring these two musicians to light, at least while Ronnie is still alive.
@Ben Dover There is no comparison. Milli Vanilli weren't singers, and lip synched live shows. The Jackson Five, like all Motown artist, were real singers. However, during many television performances of the '60s, and '70s, it was too impractical to take the Motown musicians along, so they lip synched, or pre recorded backing vocals, and instrumentals. Check it Out! Ciao!!!
@@renaissanceman165 It wasn't just the J5. Most acts were lip synced. These television shows were taped, and had specific time requirements and performance quality targets to meet. In other words, it's business. With that being said, the song selection above could be handled with keyboards/synth, percussion, drums, guitar and bass. It wouldn't be out of the ordinary for them to perform. Also, the Flip Wilson show, of course, had it's orchestra to provide strings, horns etc.
I love this music group the Jackson 5 so much all there album and songs from when they where younger and Michaels early solo album and later albums in his career
Paintday, when you said HD, you really meant it. Thanks. Makes my viewing more enjoyable. Here, I get reminded how the J5 got me mesmerized when I watched their concert in Manila when I was 21 years old, in the 70's. Michael just left me in awe.
Wow I'm confused to whose version is better, J5 or Marvin and Tammi. That's a tough one because I like how J5 version made the beat a little funkier but Marvin and Tammi sang that song with so much passion so with that said I give a slight edge to Marvin and Tammi. R.I.P. Michael/Marvin/Tammi
Don’t forget Ashford and Simpson. They wrote the song and performed it live. Those two were so in love! Also check out Ashford and Simpson “Is it still good for ya? “ for another performance so full of passion. RIP Nick Ashford 22 August 2011
I got your picture hangin' on the wall It can't see or come to me when I call your name I realize it's just a picture in a frame I read your letters when you're not near But they don't move me And they don't groove me like when I hear Your sweet voice whispering in my ear
Hearing Mike come to the front (as he always does) and command a song that was a cover is just crazy. He really went crazy on this
FACTS HE DID
The original version is so good. But this is a vibe by itself
I can't get into the original much but J5 really could make a cover their own
Most definitely is another vibe!! ❤️
Oh my gosh, Michael is smiling throughout the whole entire song, you can tell he's really enjoying it... And he did this with every song he sang in the Jackson 5! So cute. He is the cutest child star ever.
He is and Donny Osmond, too!

@@jamesb.7151 Greatest group of all time. Bands today don't ever dare put this much work in their craft.
❤
He had too or Joe would whoop his ass
Jermaine was the coolest Bass player~~the Greatest sibling group to ever DO IT!!! And THE G.O.A.T front man!! AKA KING OF POP!~

He is the reason I'm a bass player today
Loving Michael and Jermaine harmonizing. Really something!
They flow so well together
Ikr
When it was all of them together I was astonished by all of them combining together
WOW, I feel such a longing feeling of sadness, just watching Michael, when he was younger, and then knowing how some hateful ass people tried to destroy him when he got older.. He will always have a place in my heart!!!
Huh?? Did the “hateful a$$ people as you put it” force him to have sleepovers with multiple boys & turn himself to looking like a white woman!?
No one like u micheal.....rest in perfect peace.
man micheal jackson sings better then anybody on this planet honestly its 2011 and no one haven't measure up to this man. he was truly a gift to this world. rip mike
Love 💜💙Michael 🤴🏽Jackson’s outfit, so awesome! Love the flower print!
It’s now 2024…& still no Competition!!!!
no one will come close with the talant the Jackson's had.
I’m my opinion. Best version of this song.
Nobody needs yooo mamma's opinion " and thanks for helping me spell opinion" 😅😂😊😅😅😅 lol LMAO 😊😊
Ain't nothin like seeing all of the brothers on stage together! The harmony, the choreography, wow, just simply amazing. So lucky to grow up with J5!
That's why it's called soul music 🎶 🎵 where you feel the music 🎶 not just hear it ❤❤❤
Boy if I could’ve been a teenager in 1972…
It was great growing up with The Jackson 5! Better times.
I love this performance. The funny thing is im not supposed to be using UA-cam but I always make exceptions for myself when I want to watch The Jackson 5 performances. So much magic in this.

Um... if you don't mind me asking why aren't you supposed to be on youtube?
@@AidenHilton981 I am trying to limit my interactions with youtube and technology as much as possible
@@ashtynbuckley747 oh OK fair
Jermaine Jackson had the best fro hands down
He sure did
HEY WHAT ABOUT MICHAEL
Flawless
First off, respect to the family, secondly, Jermaine wore a wig. Best Fro's of all time?
1) Michael Jackson
2) Shirley Hemphill
3) Jeff Daniels
4) Leon Silvers
Michael did
That foot placement...polished beyond description...Motown really knew how to present this group... flawless.
Jermaine and Mike FTW.
Much ❤ love to the Jacksons my favorite group for the last forty seven years the Jacksons was is and will always be the real thing this gives me chills look at little Randy Jackson on the congo drums in the background admiring his famous brothers ❤❤ Rest in peace Beautiful Tito and Michael Jackson we love and miss you ❤

Very nice.
All you can say is legendary
2:13 - 2:16 is just so amazing. His smile, the way he's dancing slightly leaning towards the mic. I could cry.
He is from heaven.
"Michael Jackson was that dude. He was reall a star. His presence even at that age was bigger than life." ,
I just love the way Micheal comes in here its so beautiful and smooth like silk but you still feel the passion in his voice from the emotions of the song itself you wouldn't know it was a cover if you didn't know before they sung it Micheal definitely added an extra razzle dazzle to the track💯💯

mike was super tight when he was younger.. he is hands down the greatest of all times..
Gary Indiana’s most finest!🔥🔥🔥✨🔥
I got to watch it again and again 💯💯💯💯💯💯🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼
2020 song of the year
Absolutely does not get any smoother than that ...
You can see it here man... Mike was starting to let that beast out. All the head pops and dance steps in between the choreographed moves. Unstoppable. GOAT.
just pure natural God given talent can't get know better than than
La sonrisa de Michael siempre me hace feliz, Tito 😢 QEPD,amor a su familia ❤
Still the best version of this song, in my opinion.

Michael Jackson was that dude. He was reall a star. His presence even at that age was bigger than life.
The first song on side one of LOOKIN' THROUGH THE WINDOWS. ❤
His smile 😊😊😊😊
as a little kid back then, to see them on t.v. performing was always a treat
They were so smooth! This was such a classic show as well as a wonderful time in my life! I will never forget The Jackson Five
Loving it! Flash back from the past. Kinda strange to see how it all turned out though.
These old songs just gets into my heart, soul and mind, bringing back those wonderful memories of yesterday. Jackson 5, one of a kind!!!
Sing out your heart baby...
You did exactly what you were supposed to do when you came here.
You brought so much joy to a lot
Michael Lives!!!!
2 minutes and 30 some seconds of WHEWWWW!!!
I'm two years younger than Michael was and had such a crush in the early 70's. The psychedelic outfits and their harmonies bring back such good memories...and sadness that Michael couldn't be happy inside with his own natural looks.
Their music always has place in my heart ❤️ it makes me feel relaxed in the worse times. ;/
i think i just found my favorite UA-cam video. Michael is beyond approach. Rest MJ.
Michael Looked so happy!!
Such amazing talent...All of them!!!
Jermaine always had such a great soulful voice, along with some real soulful basslines!

You can tell that Michael really loved this song
Love and respect for MARVIN GAYE & TAMMI TERRELL's version of this song, but THE JACKSON5's is my favorite.

I totally AGREE! You are not alone You are so Incredible! Michael I love you more than you imagine for all eternity!
Michael I MISS and LOVE you.
Beautiful. Michael sings so sweet
THAT DRUMMER!!!!
Jermaine and Michael are singers
Jackie and Marlon are Vocals
Tito just plays the guitar
Randy plays with the bongos
They are all singers
I have never seen this before,it's really lovely to find something i haven't seen and Michael looks soooooo happy.
I have always loved Marlon and Jermaine s voices so sexy and soothing they are all my boys though goodlooking family
He was..he said the best time he had in the early days was performing with his Brothers back in the days..they hd each others back
I dont care that this was lip synced. I'm a huge fan of J5, more talent than any group these days.
Justin Wilhite that wasn’t lip syncing if you listen to 1:46 you can here the melody of there voices combining

Amazing video. Thank you for posting this to share. They sang and performed this song so beautifully here❤️
Wait a minute is Jermaine ripping that bass like that? I love it❤❤❤❤ Miss MJ and love him with his brothers.
i love this versionnnn omggg
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
They are such an awesome talent I saw them at the victory tour wowww r.ip MJ
Wow I'm confused to whose version is better, J5 or Marvin and Tammi. That's a tough one because I like how J5 version made the beat a little funkier but Marvin and Tammi sang that song with so much passion so with that said I give a slight edge to Marvin and Tammi. R.I.P. Michael/Marvin/Tammi

I like marvin and tammis best but they all are other worldly
The Jackson 5️⃣ version is better in my opinion
I got your picture hangin' on the wall
It can't see or come to me when I call your name
I realize it's just a picture in a frame
I read your letters when you're not near
But they don't move me
And they don't groove me like when I hear
Your sweet voice whispering in my ear
