Im here because me and my wife just watched an episode of the old show The facts of Life, season 3 ep 15 star struck. Tooty is in Love with Jermaine and goes to a show, my wife said i didn't he sang? i said yeah he did so i searched on here to show her a Video of his.
@Steve Mason as a MJ fan we are going to say that all those MJ fans who are just like that are no longer MJ fans we are passing them down to Justin Bieber fans
I think it was cause at one point Jermaine made a diss track about his brother? "Word to the Badd" I think. I didn't listen to it. But after that, Jermaine became MJ's biggest supporter before he died.
I was 16, just left school, on a bus going to Camden Town back in 1980, this other man on the same bus just kept singing this song over and over, and I thought "what's this man singing, is he crazy or what??". But then when I heard this myself played on the radio etc, I was also singing it over and over lol. It sure was a classic back in the day 🙂
It was Billboard's #1 Soul hit for the entire year of 1980, beating out brother Michael's platinum-certified mega-hit "Rock with You" which was #2 for the year.
I loved this song and am learning to do this with my band. No one will really know it but I'll let folks know its Jermaine Jackson and Stevie Wonder. I bought Jermaine's album in 1980 when this song was released and still have it. Jamming song.
Jermaine was something without Michael and still is. How rude. He doesn't have to be Michael to be good. Don't hate him because he is not Michael. People can be so mean. All the Jacksons were inducted into the Hall of Fame. They all worked together. It started out as the Jackson five not Michael and the Jacksons. I love them all, with or without Michael. RIP Michael
Wait!!! I've been listening to this song since it first came out when I was a kid. In the bridge, Stevie Wonder is singing S-E-R-I-O-U-S. In forty years I never realized that!
This song came out in 1979 (maybe '78) but I saw a lot of time in the backseat of my Dad's Cadillac Fleetwood Brouhm D'elegance..... Her name was Kristen (Bonny Doon) and she was GORGEOUS!!
First time I watched this I thought that Stevie Wonder part was actually Jermaine, and that he just had serious voice talent to switch up his voice like that.
Look…I used to walk around the house singing this song before I knew what love was😂…Now I am l here singing it because I know what love is! 😁…That’s right Jermaine…I’m soooo ready to get 💯serious with my guy!
Jermaine went hard on this song written by Stevie Wonder! He had to bring it hard because I still hear Stevie within Jermaine's voice and delivery. Who think Bruno Mars deserves a shot at this song? I think brother Bruno could do it! Lol!
😂😂😂 same thing i said; i was like come on Jermaine Stop!!!!! You couldve stood there and danced bro anything but lip sync Stevie wonders part of the your song that you're already lip syncing😂😂😂.....Lets get Serious Jermaine Lmbo!!!
It’s hilarious that he lip syncs Stevie’s part. Like does he want us to think he spontaneously gained a totally different singing voice for 10 seconds? To top it off he does it with a straight face.
This song is STILL A BANGER 43 years later❤🌟
Good taste Sakeema & yes it is!! 🔥
🔥🔥
Yes sir😊
Still listen to this in 2025 and love it more and more
Jermaine was so handsome. I wish that he and Michael had left their beautiful faces alone. 😢
Jermaine tempered with his face?
@lankastai Yes, and had bad moral.
Jermaine is so talented!! He had some bops back in the 80s, great song.
Wait till you see Janet.
Stevie Wonder penned tune.
So talented, he can't dance.
Loved them too
Name one.
Love this. The Jacksons were an insanely talented group, both together and individually. Jermaine is really rocking this! He's fantastic!
👍🏿
Yep this song definitely got Stevie wonder written over it Jermaine did good job with this song!!
That's Stevie straight singing the bridge
Of course because Stevie Wonder is his cousin
@@Cary1985how? Stop lying
I think Stevie wrote this song
@@Crissy991it’s true! Thats Stevie vocals on the bridge. Rebbie did the same thing with Centipede, Martha Wash sang the bridge.
Jermaine was SUPER fine back in the day oh my GOSH.....
Im here because me and my wife just watched an episode of the old show The facts of Life, season 3 ep 15 star struck. Tooty is in Love with Jermaine and goes to a show, my wife said i didn't he sang? i said yeah he did so i searched on here to show her a Video of his.
😊One of two great songs that I really like of Jermain's.
Do what you do, i ta o tym zeby nie traktowac tego osobiscie
What's the other?
His outfit is on point👍 He is gorgeous 😍 His vocals are great ✨#LoveYouJacksons
Jermanine did his thing that song was a monster hit 1980.
Miss those days, best music
Jermaine playing bass on this song and monster, beast of music
Nate Watts is the bass player. He was Stevie's bassist for decades
Killer Song! Jermaine is Great in this! The 7 min version is the Best! This was the Number 1 song of the Year for that Year.
I dont understand why mj fans hate jermaine, he was also a great singer and composer, had really good songs.
@Steve Mason i wouldnt say "all them are" , but yeah, a huge part is very toxic. Im huge (HUUUGE) Mj fan and i can see it clearly
@Steve Mason as a MJ fan we are going to say that all those MJ fans who are just like that are no longer MJ fans we are passing them down to Justin Bieber fans
I think most Michael fans are also fans of the whole Jackson family idk about you but that's what I've seen
Coz jamain really ddnt like michaels success
I think it was cause at one point Jermaine made a diss track about his brother? "Word to the Badd" I think. I didn't listen to it. But after that, Jermaine became MJ's biggest supporter before he died.
those female dancers are really going for it x
But Jermaine ain't though. LOL!
Definitely Stevie's songwriting❤ Love these two
Jermaine sounds great
Jermaine does a brilliant Stevie Wonder impression at 1:38 😂
Yeah, he did Stevie better than Stevie!😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 this is comment
That's Stevie himself singing that part.
Do you reckon?😅@@vision-gc4hy

I didn't know that, pretty dope. I checked myself, ur 100% right. I was 5 in 1980. My Grandfather used to rock this . Motown.
Rock with you hit number one...
yet michael still became the bigger star...well the biggest actually
besides, that's a whole different chart from the hot 100
“Michael just got lucky. It could have easily been me” on his Thriller style success.
I love this song thanks for producing this Stevie Wonder great music
Maybe he sung it too? That thought never criss crossed your mind?
I have always loved this song!!! I truly wish I could go back.
I love this song brought back a lot of memories, I was in elementary school, all the Jackson kids are well loved
I'm 41, I'm a fan of Jermaine his solo music is amazing.
Celebrating Jermaine's birthday with this precious gem❤ Happy Birthday King
I loved this song as a teenager. Still so funky 💙
Jermaine did his thing back in the day. Very versatile family ❤❤❤❤
I love this song 🎵 JJ has a great voice 💜
HAPPY 65TH BIRTHDAY
JERMAINE JACKSON
(DECEMBER 11, 2019)
Cool
I loved this song and am learning to do this with my band. No one will really know it but I'll let folks know its Jermaine Jackson and Stevie Wonder. I bought Jermaine's album in 1980 when this song was released and still have it. Jamming song.
This one slaps hella hard. I love that you can just tell it was written by Stevie Wonder
The vocal styling, and musical arrangement.
Never knew that, always knew there was something about it.
Jermaine was bad love this song.
Still loving this from the 80's 10-29-23
This track here, straight up G music... everything from the lyrics to the trumpet and drums.... serious
Danm, i used to love this song!❤
Jermaine is kicking it
Jermaine was something without Michael and still is. How rude. He doesn't have to be Michael to be good. Don't hate him because he is not Michael. People can be so mean. All the Jacksons were inducted into the Hall of Fame. They all worked together. It started out as the Jackson five not Michael and the Jacksons. I love them all, with or without Michael. RIP Michael
Right on
M T What did Michael have to do with this song? I don’t see him anywhere
All of them excluding La Toya
@@jamesstrickland6831 🤣🤣
not all the jacksons, randy was not inducted.
Germaine is jamming!!! 🎶 🎶
I love this, and the video quality is OUTSTANDING!!! Thank you for uploading!!! 🙂🙂❤️❤
Jermaine was that guyy back in the J5 Era 😎🎵🎶🎸🔥🔥🔥🔥
Happy Birthday Jermaine 🎉 I love this song ☺️
*_Such a good song. Jermaine looked cool._*
Jermaine Jackson let's get serious 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍......
Michael and have been the most known of the Jackson family, but let's not forget that Jermaine is a good singer and guitarist
I love this song it real what he talking about!
AWWWWWWWRIGHT !!!! Thank you for the trip on the wayback machine
Love this song...
This is when Jermaine was serious ❤💯 you can definitely hear Stevie Wonder all over this musically and vocally
I was Gonna Say the same exact thing!😂❤
Wait!!! I've been listening to this song since it first came out when I was a kid. In the bridge, Stevie Wonder is singing S-E-R-I-O-U-S. In forty years I never realized that!
“Jermaine had some hits.”- Charles Barkley
I finally know who sings it 06-15-2024 pretty good.🎉
Esse irmão do Michael Jackson é também um arraso na VOZ!
I agree Jermaine Jackson had individual talent. 👍
1:50 is just AMAZING 😍
This 1st backup studio recording I did for Stevie/Jermaine in my career. What an energetic lively song!!🎶 ❤
JANUARY 26, 2025
HE CAN SING REALLY WELL. I LOVED THIS SONG! HE WAS BAD BACK IN THE DAY. THANKS JERMAINE FOR YOUR BEAUTIFUL VOICE LOVE IT! ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
I had a dream I met Jermaine Jackson I wish my dream happened right now. Every time I listen to let's get serious remind me of my crushes
This song came out in 1979 (maybe '78) but I saw a lot of time in the backseat of my Dad's Cadillac Fleetwood Brouhm D'elegance.....
Her name was Kristen (Bonny Doon) and she was GORGEOUS!!
Love this song 🔥🔥🔥
First time I watched this I thought that Stevie Wonder part was actually Jermaine, and that he just had serious voice talent to switch up his voice like that.
This is a fabulous tune this singer fabulous forget his brother
Forget his brother? His brother is the reason you even know of his existence
fantastic song
One of my all time favourites and was great in the night clubs.
It's a honor to be named after him I ❤to meet him one day
This song would’ve been next level if Jermaine was a good performer
Gettin' Serious with Jermaine
Are we just going to ignore that the dancers are busting it wide open 🤣🤣😂😂
Especially the black lady
Stevie Wonder come through with those background vocals
S-E-R-I-O-U-S !!!!
I am exhausted watching those dancers go all the way in ♥️ Why couldn't Stevie make an appearance? 😱
Most this was filmed in the Netherlands. This is Dutch television show, maybe Stevie was not available at the time?.
@@mayena Check out Stevie on UA-cam in 80-81 you will be enchanted
Look…I used to walk around the house singing this song before I knew what love was😂…Now I am l here singing it because I know what love is! 😁…That’s right Jermaine…I’m soooo ready to get 💯serious with my guy!
Beautiful song ❤️
Jermaine is my favourite Jackson, real 100%
This is a whole groove...you tapped into Mr. Stevie Wonder on this one
Love this song get it Jermaine ❤
He's also a good singer.
I was addicted to this song back in the day! I still like now, but not so enthusiastically 😂
Jermaine was always my next favourite after Michael.
Somebody explain why Jermaine singing the Stevie part like it’s him!
Song is slamming though
Probably because Stevie isn't in the video 🤣
JJ's outfit is PIMP by 2022 standards...and I'm SERIOUS!!
It's very serious oh yeah!😘😍🥰
Is no one going to mention that Stevie Wonder's voice is coming out of Jermaine's mouth at 1:44?
He was one the first Black teen idols of the time. Even "Marcia Brady" (Brady Bunch) said she had a huge crush on him.
Jermaine is acting like he doesn’t have rhythm😂 like all that jackson 5 choreography went out the door in this performance 😂
Nah that joe jackson belt wasn't there that's why 😂
Jermaine went hard on this song written by Stevie Wonder! He had to bring it hard because I still hear Stevie within Jermaine's voice and delivery. Who think Bruno Mars deserves a shot at this song? I think brother Bruno could do it! Lol!
That is Stevie’s voice blended with his!
Great song! 😊😊x
Show 🍀 👍🏾😃
This is a really good song. I didn’t know it was Jermaine Jackson
Jermaine couldn’t dance but he really knew how to 🎤
Classic song 🎶
HAPPY 63RD BIRTHDAY JERMAINE JACKSON (DECEMBER 11, 2017)
Jermaine is so gorgeous here 😘
1:38-1:55 he sounds like Stevie Wonder
Because I think it is Stevie Wonder! I just read SW co-wrote and provided vocals for the track 😂
WAIT!!!! DID HE JUST LIP SING STEVIE'S PART
😂😂😂 same thing i said; i was like come on Jermaine Stop!!!!! You couldve stood there and danced bro anything but lip sync Stevie wonders part of the your song that you're already lip syncing😂😂😂.....Lets get Serious Jermaine Lmbo!!!
Yes he did... he know better than to sing Stevie's part... then again, maybe not! 😂😂😂
Jenee Bailey the whole song was lip synced. But that’s acceptable bc who has all the musicians on hand for the stage performances?
🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
i said let s get serious after a funny moment in my job today lol anyway great song
It’s hilarious that he lip syncs Stevie’s part. Like does he want us to think he spontaneously gained a totally different singing voice for 10 seconds? To top it off he does it with a straight face.
jermaine is great
Stevie Wonder wrote this song and you can hear him singing at 1.39. Jermaine is miming Stevie’s parts 🫣
I can hear Stevie Wonder Singing
The S E R I O U S CHORUS LINE
Tout en force, comme un boxeur !
Stevie wonder wrote and produced this song.
Wendell Wartes i know
It sounds very much like one of his songs.
@@ajs41 it sounds like 'Black Man' from the 'Songs in the key of life' album
@@kimburnett7340 I was going to say I clearly hear Stevie’s voice in the song. He did the S-E-R-I-O-U-S breakdown then again at the end.
His cousin man.
ROLLING!
1:40 min he sounds like Stevie Wonder :)
1:39 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
