After the 1:10 mark, I was just thinking of how he descends from the word "me" in a very Stevie Wonder-ish ad lib style..You know how Stevie likes to do these spontanious melodic detours when playing live...The bass line in this song is also very cool.
Those brothers put in a lot of hard work. Every song has a dance routine and Jermaine and Tito performing background vocals, dancing, and playing their instruments perfectly. I have the utmost respect for those brothers because that's just pure talent.
@@denisebrown9564 So, no interest in finding out what BIBLE (KJV) is about? A movie fan? yet having no interest why more and more darker movies are made? A music fan? yet never investigated whom you truly listen to? All singers, all actors and all politics are FTMs and MTFs.
It’s a shame there will never be a better singer entertainer ever again the music today sucks they can’t sing just listen to his voice without all the technology there is today
He's literally like 13-14, because of brilliance we almost normalise how maddeningly good was so young, he'd been performing for 5 plus years at his like wtf he was amazing. You couldn't even imagine a 11 year old getting to number 1 lool, only Michael.
Parched Pinemarten ... Ok: Each were 5- member pop music groups of the late-60's/early 70's, led by the youngest in the group. That's your comparison. Micheal was incomperable!
DO YALL HEAR JERMAINE KILLING THAT BASS ?!!!! people forget that Jackson 5 is a multi-talented family group that just happen to have a dynamic larger than life lead singer....listen to those harmonies :)!
No doubt all of The Jackson Five had talent, but let's be honest, the other four put together were not a patch on Michael. They all built their careers on him.
Bill B Correction: they all built careers TOGETHER...some succeeded & some didn't..that's the nature of the biz sometimes so thank God that each Jackson member had importance in the unit..Jackson 5 wasn't in competition with each other...MJ & Jermaine were the main lead singers in the unit so their solo success was inevitable especially MJ's because he was thee ultimate lead.....but either way, it all starts with the Jackson 5...6 brothers who rehearsed, performed, lived, loved & worked together for damn near 20 years before "Thriller"
lawrence worrell Very well said. They ALL had talent. And here is the sad reality: Yes, Mike left a larger-than-life legacy, but he is gone; his brothers remain. Outsized fame has its price. What if they had achieved what Michael did as a solo artist? Would they still be around? Let's remember that with incredible fame comes that incredible monkey on your back. In any event, a phenomenally talented family. They ALL contributed to the legacy. Because of ALL of them we are sitting at our laptops, 40+ years later, enjoying them all over again on You Tube.
Everyone talks about "it gotta be hard for jermaine to sing and play bass". But what about tito? Tito was playing multiple fast chords and riffs while doing those dances. Tito doesn't get the praise he deserves for helping with making the music sound so beautiful along with Jermaine and Randy
PoloBoyPrince Yea, he sings. They sing (in order of ability from better to worse): Rebbie, Michael, Jermaine, Tito, Jackie, Randy, Janet. Marlon and La Toya are tied for worst. I list Tito before Jackie because Tito has more versatilty in that he can range from bass/baritone to upper register tenor, whereas Jackie's abilities are confined to the mid to upper registers. In reading between the lines on the Jackson show that feature his kids (3T), they indicate that he is shy and essentially "hides" behind the guitar. That may be why he has led only a couple of released songs until his recently released single, but you can hear his bass tones all over their background singing. Cant give u any info on dancing, lol.
Yes also, it was REALLY RARE that they would let them do it live. In this era, they would almost always do it with playback. They would tell Michael and his brother where they would be, and how they would move... it's incredible to find real lives for shows like this. There is only a few. Michael was magic right ? They were all so good.
@@Jaburu It's live. Michael's voice was a lot stronger live than on playback during this era. They likely tuned down his vocals on record to match better with his brothers. Check out all the other live performances like the one for "going back to Indiana". You'll see just how overpowering his voice is when live.
I hate it when someone compares a new artist to Michael, like Bruno Mars, people say "Oh, he's the new Michael Jackson." Yo, shut the hell up, nobody and I mean NOBODY is or ever will be as good as Michael.
This was arguably the peak of his adolescent voice, an absolute vocal monster. His voice changing must have been such a psychological blow to him, his 73-75 performances were all done in lower keys (there's a few of them in japan on here) and his adult vocals were beginning to mold into what the world would all come to know. But it wasn't as simple as Michael waking up with a lower voice and just singing his songs, he had to develop a new style and method for his performances and grind into the world class performer he was accustomed to being. Such a talented performer!
Seriously... My fuckin' heart drops every time I hear the slayage that happened at 1:12. OH. MY. GAWD. That child was something amazing. Rest in Paradise, Michael. #6YearsToday
It is so easy to see how these kids ran away with the music of the era, and so many awards!! Momma Katherine sure knew her way around with a needle and had such an eye for the costumes these boys wore! Explains Michael's flair for style later in life! He was a professional showman right up to the end! We love you MORE, Michael!!
Its not Jermaine actually on any of the songs playing the bass. Crunkboy 415 is correct. its James Jamerson on bass in this song and any other great song by the J5
I didn't know much about Michael Jackson until he died because I'm young, but getting to learn who he was and his music was just great. His voice was phenomenal. If he didn't feel loved while he was alive he sure would have felt it after he died. RIP to a legend
I don't think there will every be a generation that won't know him, but what's sad is, they won't know THIS Michael Jackson. Michael was almost 11 years-old when I was born. There has NEVER been a time in my life when I wasn't his fan. I think I heard him in the womb and came out Mike-ma-tized. I thank God I knew him, but even still, with me being 11 years young than him, I STILL missed some great times. Well, maybe I didn't miss them; I just don't remember them. OH, but I do remember when I was 5 years-old, my mother took me to the Houston Livestock and Rodeo at the Astrodome to see the Jackson 5 (because I begged her). I DO remember that!
Michael was 5 years older than me and a 7 years older than my brother. When MJ died, my brother called me up crying. MJ and the Jackson 5 were a HUGE part of our childhood. We used to beg our parents to let us stay up late and watch them on the late shows, then see their cartoons in the morning. We loved them so much! Even our young parents did. My mom named my third and youngest brother Ben because she was pregnant with him in 1972, when she used to listen to and sing the song Ben to her tummy. AWW! Not to mention them many years our dancing family danced to his songs in clubs, at weddings, etc. THANK You Michael and the Jackson 5. You were an inspiration, and such sweet young men. SO much talent! @@LYBism
God put his foot all in this one.... My god! He is singing this one live! 🥲 I’m just gonna repeat this one more time. He is singing this.one.live!!!! I am speechless! The range is out of this world! I miss his so much. it hurts.
Dang! I was not expecting that run on 1:13! This is my #1 favorite Jackson 5 song. I just love his vocals on this song. I thought that this was going to be another Soul Train live but not live performance but this was awesome. Every time I hear his voice, it makes me want to cry, just thinking about everything he went through and a time that I wasn't even alive for.
Little Mike, has one golden voice, grew up with those kids and their beautiful songs, I,m now in my 60s and still listening to their music 🎵🎶❤😊, love them my favorite.
It's not just his voice and the dancing, it's the SHOWMANSHIP!!! It's his hands, how he interprets the music, it's how you JUST SEE HIM. He was truly talented beyond his years. GENIUS!!
MichAel was a beautiful young man. And had a voice out this world somewhere In another universe. He was way ahead of his time . Talented ass hell! A pure genus god gift to the world.
They all killed it. Jermaine is walking that bass all over the place. The harmonies are flawless, brother Tito killing that guitar. Off course Mike on lead vox is incomparable. The 70’s was such a great time to be alive to witness these incredible act with real musicianship and talent. And most of all class.
Yes Michael was God's gift to us and he did what he was suppose to do with his money and fame. He is in the arms of God almighty himself; I think Michael's an angel.
"Got to Be There", is the first song I heard and fell instantly in love with Michael. My favorite words were " and when she's with me she's home" I truly get it. I love you, Michael from the bottom of my heart!
Sang Michael! He was such a cute little boy, I absolutely love him as a child we were the same age 😊 ABC was my first Jackson 5 song I was exposed to. In my elementary class the teacher played the song and we all got up and danced 😁
@@jhova187 No. why? Mike even said himself he never thought he would become as big as he did. Marlon said he and Mike would look out the window as little kids and they would talk about what they would do when they were older. Both of them having no idea what their future was holding. Mike always tried to establish that he couldn’t have done it without his father and brothers. Because his dad taught them what it means to really work hard.
Is anybody paying attention to the choreography though!!!!!!!!! What!?? Omg NO ONE can dance like these brothas here! I cannot believe the amount of effort and detail in every dance move from start to finish! Look at them dancing in the background starting at the 3:00 min mark and throughout the rest of the video! How exceptional!!
Watch their live performances in the 60's and 70's. They always do things that blow the mind. Jackie and Randy don't receive enough credit for their footwork. Jackie was the best dancer in my opinion.
The whole Jackson family is awesome, they're singers, songwriters, producers, artists. So don't just glorify Michael because he wouldn't be the legend he is today without the love of his family.
ComicPhreak NO !!! J5 or the Jacksons are nothing without Michael !!! MJ can make all !! = sing solo, dance etc. & does used/participed the crowd !!! sorry for my bad english😞 MJ = J5, then a true artist : visionary , make great sound and lyrics, video clips= short films etc. Actually he was the star of group!!!
"Got to be there, got to be there In the morning When she says hello to the world Got to be there, got to be there Bring her good times And show her that she's my girl Oh what a feeling there'll be The moment I know she loves me 'Cause when I look in her eyes I realize I need her sharing her world beside me So I've got to be there Got to be there in the morning And welcome her into my world And show her that she is my girl When she says, "Hello world!" I need her sharing the world beside me That's why I've got to be there Got to be there where love begins And that's everywhere she goes I've got to be there so she knows That when she's with me, she's home Got to be there Got to be there" ♪ ♫ ♬
He was only 10 years old Born 58 and this was recorded in 72 look at the front page I can't stop watching this! He was giving great show at 10 years old WOW I love him I new he give great show's I'n the 80sand 90s but I'm blow away 🤫🤔🤗 away
I have too many feelings and things to say about this song.... first thing, right from the jump at 0:13 Michael is letting you know you're in trouble and he's not playing around. He continues throughout the performance. This is one of the best songs I've ever heard. I could listen to the studio version all day, and this live rendition is simply electric. Every time I watch this, I try to picture how it might have felt to witness it live. Could you imagine watching this on TV as he's performing this in 70s? Or how about being in person at the show? He must have seemed alien, godlike or something else in the moment, cause this whole comment section still can't process it to this day! He was truly otherworldly. The only 🤴🏾of pop🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
His voice is truly a gift from God.
Mind you he was a 13-14y/o boy hitting notes and doing those runs he was doing!! His talent will forever be unmatched
thats not true .. at all! everyone recy
EXACTLY !! Little MJJ was vocal beast ♠️👍🏾
They all were not just him y'all have to realize all of the brothers were equally popular at the beginning ask somebody
He hit these notes at a younger age
hes the goat
Ok I'm 62 and still watching...anybody else.

These kids were a gift from God 👍
Quem não sabe se encantaria com isso...?

A gift from Joe
They were amazing! They WERE my childhood, love them so much!
Epic, legendary...all the above!!
That "meeeeeee" took me out😩 everytime ♥️
You have to appreciate how great of a vocalist this guy was. He and Stevie Wonder were on another damn level.
After the 1:10 mark, I was just thinking of how he descends from the word "me" in a very Stevie Wonder-ish ad lib style..You know how Stevie likes to do these spontanious melodic detours when playing live...The bass line in this song is also very cool.
@@borisblvd5354they cut from the same DNA. They are cousins and they didn't even know it
@@eddiemorrison4127they knew as early as they met (on Katherine’s side) and it’s confirmed by Janet and a few other Jackson members.

I agree. These guys had so much talent. No auto tune, no computer gimmicks, just pure talent and charisma.
I wish they would remaster these old videos. Be like yesterday
One of a kind, nobody will come even close, child prodigy to a adult superstar legend.
Michael Jackson is a gift from god
You mean a gift from The Most High,he is a God.
He's literally like 13-14, because of brilliance we almost normalise how maddeningly good was so young, he'd been performing for 5 plus years at his like wtf he was amazing. You couldn't even imagine a 11 year old getting to number 1 lool, only Michael.
I remember when they used to compare them with The Osmond: There's really no comparison.
Amen! Did you know Donny was originally supposed to record "Ben"? It wouldn't have been the hit it was if he had. It was meant to be Michael's.
I think it's possible to compare them. Jackson's music has generally aged better, though.
Parched Pinemarten ... Ok: Each were 5-
member pop music groups of the late-60's/early 70's, led by the youngest in the group. That's your comparison. Micheal was incomperable!
Parched Pinemarten your right you can here j5 songs now everywhere remixes tvs (abc for back to school)
aged better? that's an understatement. when was the last you heard an Osmond song? nope, no real comparison. both talented though.

The best artist of allll time

How wasn't this song not on a movie soundtrack?

Clara Kirkendoll at his age at that time. His range and clarity . And understanding performance of being the lead was just phenomenal !

Mike always tried to establish that he couldn’t have done it without his father and brothers. Because his dad taught them what it means to really work hard.
Is anybody paying attention to the choreography though!!!!!!!!! What!?? Omg NO ONE can dance like these brothas here! I cannot believe the amount of effort and detail in every dance move from start to finish! Look at them dancing in the background starting at the 3:00 min mark and throughout the rest of the video! How exceptional!!
Watch their live performances in the 60's and 70's. They always do things that blow the mind. Jackie and Randy don't receive enough credit for their footwork. Jackie was the best dancer in my opinion.
This was such a great performance! You just don't see this kind of talent and showmanship anymore! They were ALL fantastic!
My gosh the energy these youngsters had to simultaneously sing, dance, and play musical instruments.
this voice is hair raising always love him dont matter
Omg! Speechless...he knows she loves him..wow
RIHP Tito!! Fly High, Great Guitar Emperor!!❤❤❤
Damn are y'all listening his angelic voice...he's actually singing live "no voice over" absolutely heaven sent love you Michael.
The whole Jackson family is awesome, they're singers, songwriters, producers, artists. So don't just glorify Michael because he wouldn't be the legend he is today without the love of his family.
+ComicPhreak This is the best response and the truth on this page about what you said of the J5! Kwon138
Kwon John Thank you!

NO !!! J5 or the Jacksons are nothing without Michael !!! MJ can make all !! = sing solo, dance etc. & does used/participed the crowd !!!
sorry for my bad english😞
MJ = J5, then a true artist : visionary , make great sound and lyrics, video clips= short films etc.
Actually he was the star of group!!!
Channah Racham His, siblings shitted on him and hogged him for his fame sorry but it's the sad truth.
The word EFFORTLESSLY comes to mind when I here his voice!!
A time when music touched our lives and hearts 😊
voice of an ANGEL
"Got to be there, got to be there
In the morning
When she says hello to the world
Got to be there, got to be there
Bring her good times
And show her that she's my girl
Oh what a feeling there'll be
The moment I know she loves me
'Cause when I look in her eyes I realize
I need her sharing her world beside me
So I've got to be there
Got to be there in the morning
And welcome her into my world
And show her that she is my girl
When she says, "Hello world!"
I need her sharing the world beside me
That's why I've got to be there
Got to be there where love begins
And that's everywhere she goes
I've got to be there so she knows
That when she's with me, she's home
Got to be there
Got to be there" ♪ ♫ ♬
Thanks for them Got to Be There lyrics lol I Knew the song well ..But forgot and had just a tab few of the words /verses a bit off ..
phenominal singer
When life was simple.... RIP MJ
How does anyone have this kind of talent live? They can't make them like this anymore, Michael is just crazy talented
He was only 10 years old Born 58 and this was recorded in 72 look at the front page I can't stop watching this! He was giving great show at 10 years old WOW I love him I new he give great show's I'n the 80sand 90s but I'm blow away 🤫🤔🤗 away
Yes that’s his child’s voice
I have too many feelings and things to say about this song.... first thing, right from the jump at 0:13 Michael is letting you know you're in trouble and he's not playing around. He continues throughout the performance. This is one of the best songs I've ever heard. I could listen to the studio version all day, and this live rendition is simply electric. Every time I watch this, I try to picture how it might have felt to witness it live. Could you imagine watching this on TV as he's performing this in 70s? Or how about being in person at the show? He must have seemed alien, godlike or something else in the moment, cause this whole comment section still can't process it to this day! He was truly otherworldly. The only 🤴🏾of pop🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
