As an 11/12 year old The Jackson 5 abd The Osmond Brothers were at the top of my playlist. The music was fun but it was mostly because Michael Jackson and Donny Osmond were great singers who were only a bit older than me.
It's even better growing up watching the Jackson Five and Michael rising on his own, exposing all his talents. I got my first kiss to "I'll Be There". I was in a sports bar when I heard Michael passed away and I burst out crying like a baby. I felt like I lost a brother.
Much respect to all the Jackson’s, but when Michael sings, YOU LISTEN! He was truly a gift from God, but god called him home, the angels required him to sing along with them.
You're right about Jermaine, he was that dude and such an underrated talent. Sadly, I think many fans were lowkey mad at him for staying at Motown when the rest of the family went to Epic. Michael is King without question, but Jermaine was my favorite in the group 🔥🔥🔥
🌸 I see this beautiful young boy so so talented and everything that he did as he grew up.. and then every time my heart breaks knowing that we've lost him so early 💔
I remember listening to The Jackson Five on the radio as a child, and I remember watching The Jackson Five animated cartoon series on Saturday mornings on ABC, which featured some songs by the group. Later in the decade, The Jacksons had a short-lived variety show on CBS, to try to compete with “The Donny And Marie Show” on ABC. The Jacksons were, and are still, a great music group. Their work on “Dancing Machine”, “Can You Feel It?”, and “Torture” is proof of this statement.
My first concert ever was J5. It was about '74. Tavares was the opening act. The Jacksons came out wearing white jumpsuits with J5 belt buckles in electric blue. As you can hear, Michael's voice as a pre-teen & a teen sounded much different than his later career. Boy, he could belt as a teen--please listen to Never Can Say Goodbye ( if you haven't already). Also, if you've never seen them perform Dancing Machine, check it out--pretty sure it was on The Carol Burnett Show, they had on some cool green outfits
Eloquent. Nailed it brother. Jacksons, Carpenters, Everly Brothers, Osmonds, Beach Boys/Wilson brothers. Some of the most talented families including the Carter's in country music. In many ways the Jacksons are the epitome of perfection. People forget how hard Mr. Jackson trained, practiced and pushed his sons every single day. What we are watching is the result of thousands of hours of hard work. It paid off but these boys suffered for their art. We get to enjoy their legacy on video and vinyl. I was lucky to be alive when they first made it big.
4:45 Spoken well and legends in their own way too Jackie-high falsetto & sports Tito-Lead guitar (the reason for J5 IFYKYK) Jermaine-2nd Lead & bass & a sex symbol too Marlon- background, dancer & a jokester Michael-Natural all around lol Randy-musician and songwriter
I always kinda felt bad for Jackie. He stood out so much for being the "adult" in the group from Day One, and because he didn't play an instrument or sing solos, he was always just dancing with Michael and Marlon when they were still little - which made him stand out even more for all the wrong reasons - like he was just "lucky to be there." He had to be SO HAPPY when Michael and Marlon got taller and the age disparities weren't so pronounced. At the same time, I just don't believe that Jackie would have independently pursued a career in music if he wasn't born into a family where his younger brothers took the lead - and there's nothing wrong with that; I don't think Janet would've done it either if her older siblings hadn't taken the lead (and her father all but forced her to do it). He seems to be a cool person though, and it had to be hard to be stuck with his little brothers almost 24/7 in his late teens/early twenties. An 18 year old guy doesn't normally want to hang out with his 10 year old brother ALL THE TIME. And on top of that, the annoying little brother was the darling of the world. It had to be just... ugh. It seems that all of the older guys (Jackie, Tito, and Jermaine) got married young primarily to get out of the family house and escape that dynamic.
@@amontaineaurore4700 Maybe in the very beginning, (and then it was Jermaine), but he was still stuck with his little brothers (probably against his will). And he probably wanted to be doing other things as a teenager before there was any realistic hope that they'd be successful. MJ became the lead singer at 5; that would have made Jackie 12-13 when Joe started forcing them to practice almost nonstop. All of his teen years could have been caught up doing something he never wanted to do. I heard he really wanted to play baseball.
If only someone could go back in time and save this sweet child from all the abuse he suffered for being this talented, maybe he would have had a chance at a remotely normal mind and life as an adult.
I never heard that before in any presentation. It is not there on any other video. It sounds like your boo coming from somewhere so check out another video. It’s not there.
I’m always a little sad when I see these clips cause I know what was going on with their sadistic father behind the scenes. I just feel so bad for those kids. Yes, they were amazing but they didn’t have a choice.
Yep! I get what you mean about Jermaine, he was super talented but just over shadowed by Michael. I mean how can you compete when MICHEAL is your brother. The Jackson Brothers were a genetic phenomenon.
Don't you dare compare J5 to the Kardashians . They had talent, and the Kardashians are famous nobody's. We don't diss Jermaine he was supposed to be the lead singer of J5. He sings well as a young man here. He left the group to go solo. MJ asked to join, and at first, his parents thought he was too young. However, he had the pipes. Janet tried acting Good Times Different Strokes and Fame. She did have some mediocre hits before she had her initial successful solo album Control. Thanks to Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. This is 1969 or 1970. Janet is not a great singer, but she had good songs by 1986. Michael Jackson was a superstar by 1982. Randy was better fit than Jermaine because the songs were more mature. Technically, Berry Gordy wanted just Michael Jackson and replaced the brothers with Gordy's background singers. Papa Joe was like hell no. The brothers could dance play instruments but except for Jermaine and Michael could sing especially MJ. It's extremely hard to be a good child singer until adulthood especially as a male's voice matures. I wouldn't call them Kennedys They are the musical family period.
Jermaine married Berry Gordys daughter Hazel. Definitely not white. And it was Marlon who had trouble with dancing at first, but now some ppl do feel Marlon became the better dancer
So you’re going to be the one on this thread to attempt to start the negativity parade. You know there’s always one. Whether you are a bot or an ignorant a**, there is always one on every thread.
@@theshadowfax239 you can look at the rest of the family and tell jackie randy and jermaine have the same high cheekbones and strong jaw. his nephews 3t look like they could be his kids.
This brought tears to my eyes. I still miss Michael
Surely it is his voice and act you miss? The man was as creepy as hell.
@@nirvanaa5556creepy? If you are a wimp, just say that
No one like MJ. I pray he found peace and the love he always desired. RIP ❤️
I used to watch the Jackson 5 cartoon show on Saturday mornings in the early 70s.
Outstanding Performance 🎭♥️💯
You are right, the whole family is awesome, I am so glad that the brothers are still performing, much love and respect to all of them❤😊😊
The song Stand was recorded in 1969 by the popular band Sly And The Family Stone… Its a protest song against prejudices of all kinds.
So many good Sly songs.
@@anthonydawson8080 I haven’t seen many reactions for them.
Prejudice to war too during tht time
they sang played INSTRUMENTS and danced the whole tim
GET THIS ... LIVE
Sly and The Family Stone tunes was the songs at this performance. Sly and his band was iconic and very popular too. Great times.

That song Stand, is a song by Sly And The Family Stone.
MJ forever ,he is so missed 💔❤️👑❤️
American Royalty ⭐
Jermaine Jackson was also a teen Idol, I had his poster and his record
Can't wait until the Michael Biopic..👍
I'LL BE THERE still my pick.
I feel you!!!!!
4:45 Spoken well and legends in their own way too
Jackie-high falsetto & sports
Tito-Lead guitar (the reason for J5 IFYKYK)
Jermaine-2nd Lead & bass & a sex symbol too
Marlon- background, dancer & a jokester
Michael-Natural all around lol
Randy-musician and songwriter
I grew up on the Jackson 5 and the Osmonds! 😂❤

My understanding is that Jackie was getting all the girls.

9:20 he was 11 this was 1969
💯👍🕺

that means no Jackson 5, no jacksons, no King of Pop
IIRC Michael was 11 here.
I think they were all so talented, but Michael was pushed into the front from an early age. Think it was too much pressure.
I never heard that before in any presentation. It is not there on any other video. It sounds like your boo coming from somewhere so check out another video. It’s not there.

@@jasonregister4895 yes, i love the official video.
Anyone here after news of Tito? This is really depressing, 2 of them are gone now :/

Prince will..
I appreciate your feedback but, the Kardashians should not be mentioned as being in the same league as the Jackson's, absolutely No comparison!
Jesus lives
This is my favorite version of Michael Jackson. The music was great and he was young and sweet, long before he got weird and creepy.
He was never weird and creepy, goofy
Hazel Gordy was as black as they come.
This is not your first reaction to the Jackson 5, can yall really stop faking for views.
Jermaine married Berry Gordys daughter Hazel. Definitely not white. And it was Marlon who had trouble with dancing at first, but now some ppl do feel Marlon became the better dancer
Which is clearly not true lmao
He was 12.
Not 8 or 9
11*
@@Anaabella-ey1 sorry. You are right. They were on ed sullivan in late 1969
