FIRST TIME HEARING Paul McCartney & Michael Jackson - Say Say Say REACTION

[@DubsIsWhatIget30]

MJ has been my GOAT since I was 4 years old im 19 now and was dancing like him since I was 6 😂😂

[@KD-cd2ck]

It was recorded before Thriller (1981) but released after Thriller (1983). Also La Toya is in this because she and Michael were get close (especially around this time) and because she was a fan of Paul so he invited her along and have her a role. Also some of the scenes were filmed at a ranch that Michael would end up buying and naming Neverland

[@GalaxyNexus1]

It was actually recorded in 1982, the same year the Thriller album was recorded.

[@KD-cd2ck]

@ they teamed up in 1981

[@caseyhazelman2390]

Linda McCartney also is in this.

[@caseyhazelman2390]

GREAT Reaction! Check out the Beatles Hey Jude.

[@msoileau83]

​@GalaxyNexus1 Nope it was recorded in 81. Look it up.

[@mrs.jackson5872]

this is truly the best reaction to mj i’ve seen in a while , actually genuine! mom should react with y’all more often i love her commentary aswell 😊❤. thanks for this guys!❤

[@Milkers777]

During the filming of "Say, Say, Say," MJ visited Paul Mccartney who was staying at Sycamore Valley Ranch. A few years later MJ bought the Ranch and turned it into Neverland. MJ’s vocals are unmatched he’s Thee Greatest Music Artist Of All Time/Vocalist! For a great reason too simply cause of how versatile the man truly was/is he super soulful gotta check out more of MJ’s discography he’s done World Music,Pop,R&B,Hip Hop,Disco,Funk,Soul,Heavy Metal,Rock,Country,DubStep,Opera etc. he’s phenomenal and dominated the music industry from Childhood To Adulthood And MJ’s vocals are unmatched I prefer the MJ alternate version with most of the parts being sung by Michael himself Long Live The King Of Music Forever! MJ influences are James Brown,Jackie Wilson,Fred Astaire & Sammy Davis Jr. so his default vocal performance is to always go raw MJ is incomparable!😇🙌🏽👑💕💫(And yes that’s MJ’s sister Latoya who is playing his love interest at 8:15 in this Short Film it’s just acting also he was giving her a opportunity in the music industry being the lovely brother MJ truly was/is btw this song went straight to Number 1 it also came out after the Thriller album was released in 1983.)

[@minhcanphai44]

Latoya wanted to be a model back in those days, so Michael basically let her in a few of his music videos to get her attention, she was also in "The way you make me feel' music video

[@Milkers777]

MJ was first informed that the ATV/Beatles catalogue was up for sale in September 1984 by his attorney, John Branca, who had put together Jackson's earlier catalogue acquisitions. Warned of the competition he would face in buying such popular songs, Jackson remained resolute in his decision to purchase them. Branca approached McCartney's attorney to query whether the Beatle was planning to bid. The attorney stated he wasn't; it was "too pricey." According to Bert Reuter, who negotiated the sale of ATV Music for Holmes à Court, "We had given Paul McCartney first right of refusal but Paul didn't want it at that time." Lennon's widow, Yoko Ono had been contacted as well but also did not enter bidding and was said to be happy that MJ acquired the catalogue. >>> MJ is too nice for his cruel friends,and a savvy businessman man!✍🏽👑🎯💯

[@seansimms8503]

Paul spoke on this, said he wasn't happy Mike did that😂I think he said even he didn't have the cash to buy em at the time and half of them he wrote😂😂😂he was salty for awhile.

[@debjorgo]

Paul wanted to split the purchase with Yoko, because it was Lennon and McCartney songs. She was the one who did not want to pony up the price Paul thought they needed to bid. Meanwhile, Michael, who Paul had recommended to buy into music catalogs, bid way more than the catalog was worth. (Some say Yoko, she and son Sean were friends with Mike as well, told Michael what he needed to bid. Yoko thought she could manipulate Michael easier than Paul and get her way with the catalog.) Paul was upset but says he thought if Michael owned the music, he should ask for a raise. He certainly did not say anything bad about Michael, after he had died. He said he was a very lovely man, and he was sad that he had passed.

[@sandyproctor4901]

There will never ever be anyone who comes close to MJ. The talent he had was unbelievable. That’s why he’s the King of pop. GOAT!!!!

[@timbaker6540]

Paul & Michael also did “ The girl is mine”

[@leodejongful]

And "The man". Michael sang Paul's song "Girlfiend" on Off the wall.

[@Mckinzie-ww7hb]

Can’t wait for you guys to watch Michael again ❤ I know i already told you guys about this but I would really like for you to react to Michael Jackson private home movies, it features his kids, behind the scenes for his music video, his parents, his siblings, his Neverland ranch, his tours, etc cool stuff. lol I love you guys reactions to him ❤❤

[@catsara9114]

When Michael comes in, the energy levels go to a whole other level 😍 Bringing LaToya into this was , as far as I know, a family decision. They wanted to give LaToya a role lol. Well, it is just acting, but it IS a bit weird 😆

[@garylee3685]

McCartney never said he didn't care about Michael's passing. Michael sold the Beatles songs before he passed btw.

[@finderkeeperrrs]

The Beatles wasn't the only song in the catalogue. Little Richard, sly and the family stone to name a few

[@ccjtv809]

Latoya was a big fan of Paul's and Michael needed to find a way to get them to technically work together and the reason why the Jacksons weren't weirded out by this is because they had a variety TV show where they did skits as well as dancing and singing and in some of those skits they would play a couple for the 2-minute sketches but it would never get out of hand

[@louiedavis4909]

She's forgetting one thing. Currently, Sony owns The Beatles catalog.

[@ericechols6056]

Wow mom's looks like his older sister. Yeah, MJ was in rare form and at his peak in whatever he did as an entertainer. It was Michael Jackson Mania. From 79' to 91' and beyond as MJ slayed the music industry. Say, say, say video came out 2 months before the Famous Thriller video. It was so great to be alive and experience the genius of this Man-child and the wonders he brought to this world. Check out 👉🏾 (The Jacksons-Billie Jean: VICTORY TOUR LIVE, By TeenaTellsTheTruth), which is 9:02 mins., long. 😃👍

[@patticrichton1135]

Keep in mind that the BEATLES did the SAME thing in the '60s, when it was BEATLEMANIA and even with MJ, there hasn't been anything as manic as it was from 1963- 1970 during the Beatles career together. I was there and I saw it all. T The day they arrived in America for the first time on Feb.7, 1964, it was ALL over the TV news, even interrupting afternoon TV shows to show the Beatles' press conference at JFK airport after they arrived. Thousands of teenagers lined the observation deck to see them get off the plane. In all the NEWSPAPERS across the country, they were FRONT PAGE NEWS the day they landed. One city's newspaper the headlines were in 3 inch high thick black letters that simply said, "THEY"RE HERE!!" It didn't even mention their name. The whole country KNEW when and where they were arriving. Their first single in the US "I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND" was released on Dec. 26, 1963. That is when I first heard it, and I was immediately struck by it's sound. I didn't even know who it was and hadn't seen a photo of them yet. I was already loving what I heard. They were in the U.S for 2 weeks for 3 consecutive performance on the ED SULLIVAN SHOW. The third was taped the afternoon of their first appearance and then played that 3rd Sunday. The Beatles had already returned to England earlier in the week. The thing was, they were in the newspapers EVERY DAY while they were here, reporting on where they were and what they were doing. They also performed their first concert in the US on Feb. 11, 1964 (2 days after the first Sullivan show) at the WASHINGTON COLISEUM in D.C. On Feb. 12, the did a concert in CARNEGIE HALL in NYC. They were the FIRST rock group to perform in that prestigious hall. Before that only symphony orchestras. operas and ballets performed there. The Ed Sullivan theater only seats about 700 people, there were 25,000 requests for that first night's appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show! They stayed in the newspapers almost daily for that first year and continued to have articles written about them all the way through their career. I know because I used to go through the 2 daily newspapers in my city and cut out any articles or pictures about them, I have a box full of those clippings. Still have them, but there are so many, it would take forever to put them all in scrapbooks and I would need an entire room of shelves to house them. Their music STILL sells today and it's not going to die out any time soon. Many people are still discovering and loving their music today. We original "first generation fans" LOVE watching reactors, here, going down the Beatles' "rabbit hole " and watching THEM react to the Beatles music the same way WE did when we first heard every new single and album, with pure joy. ALL these reactors of every race, age and nationality, have become fellow Beatles fans, also referred to as "Beatlemaniacs" They are loving them and often say they WISH they could have been around back in the '60s. What also attracts these reactors is how versatile their music is, covering all types of music and some can't even pigeonhole their music into a particular style. We always tell them, they were their OWN "genre"! They never stayed the same and were never boring. We couldn't wait to see what they were going to do next. They are the most influential band ever, changing music, fashion, hairstyles, attitudes, everything. When they arrived here, it was like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz going from her black and white world, and opening the door to a world of color in OZ. They are the soundtrack of my life. The music I went to when I was sad, and needed comfort, cheering up, relax to, or just dance. It will be 60 years on Dec. 26th 2024 since my 16 year old ears first heard "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and have been listening to all their music as the Beatles and each of their solo music after they broke up, ever since. I have NEVER tired of it, I always feel like that teenager and in my early 20s whenever I listen to their music.

[@MoonChild-1994]

Y'all got me dead😂 .. MJ and his sister are playing characters (who don't ever get close let alone kiss), and had never been flirty close in real life.

[@JK_87606]

Michael jackson legend

[@SIXX2772]

I remember Friday night videos before MTV.

[@jewelarchon]

Loved watching this! This was always one of my favorite songs growing up! The height of my eternal love for MJ began during this time frame!

[@leodejongful]

To make it complete: they did 2 songs for the McCartney album Pipes of Peace (this one and The Man) and ofc they did The girl is mine on Thriller. Even before that MJ covered McCartney's song Girlfriend on Off the wall and from the Beatles music rights he covered Come together which was mostly a Lennon creation. The Jackson 5 did some Let it be covers during performances but never on the record.

[@phoenixxking4156]

His sister was in it because she wanted to be a model and so MJ put her in the video to try and push her career

[@georgeglasser8220]

MJ didn't own the Christmas song that Paul McCartney wrote as a solo artist. Not part of the Beatles catalog.

[@Mckinzie-ww7hb]

Ok?..

[@antaveus]

Latoya was also on "The Way You Make me Feel.", but not as his love interest. Supermodel, Tatiana Thumbtzen, was his love interest.

[@phoenixxking4156]

Also fun fact the plot of land this was recorded on later became neverland

[@janiemarshall7928]

Please react to "The girl is mine" by both Michael Jackson/Paul McCartney 🖤🖤🖤

[@dalblack8712]

You should listen to “The Man” by MJ and McCartney. Even most fans of both are unfamiliar with this song because it was never released as a single. Very underrated and interesting song.

[@SIXX2772]

His sister playing the part has never been a big deal to my generation.

[@Hope...M]

I didn't know that was his sis. I also did not know it was Paul McCartney wife in the video with the blonde hair. I think she passed younger from cancer but I'm not sure since this is a little before me time

[@MsAppassionata]

@@Hope...M Yes, you are correct. Her name was Linda, and she played keyboards and sang harmonies in Paul’s band Wings and also his solo career. She died from cancer in 1998.

[@MsAppassionata]

@@Hope...M Yes, you are correct. Her name was Linda, and she played keyboards and sang harmonies in Paul’s band Wings and also his solo career. She died from cancer in 1998.

[@patticrichton1135]

@@Hope...M You will also see Linda's daughter Heather, from her first marriage. Heather was 6 when Paul married Linda. With permission from Heather's Dad, Mel See, Paul legally adopted Heather as his own and so she became a McCartney too. You can see Paul and Linda's oldest daughter Heather when the reactors PAUSED the video just as Paul, Linda and MJ were walking up the hill to the orphanage. They paused it at the moment Heather comes to look over the fence. She is the blonde girl with her hair tucked up at the back of her neck, wearing a beige and brown checked dress. Paul and Linda had 3 other children together, Mary, Stella and James.

[@Hope...M]

@@patticrichton1135 thanks for the details about the daughter Heather. Now I have to watch it again and pay closer attention

[@mz5458]

If you're gonna do the Beatles (and you should), you should start at the beginning of their catalog and work your way forward. Maybe not every song, but a good sample from each album. That way you'll get to hear, feel, and understand not only their growth as a band, but really the growth of modern rock/pop music. They were (are) SO influential. Some will say their early music isn't as good as the later stuff, but i don't think that statement holds up. The early stuff isn't quite as revolutionary as the later stuff, but still always on the leading edge of the evolution of popular music.

[@Laura_Martin42]

I'm guessing they thought maybe people wouldn't know she was his sister, I always wondered about that, too. Michael was pure magic.

[@harrietmiller3982]

👏🙌💯 you guys will really love "Come Together", originally a Beatles song but after MJ bought the catalog he made a super cool/hot video of it💯

[@msoileau83]

Paul paid tribute to Michael on Letterman.

[@Biscuitsslamnation]

This is one of my favorite songs of his also I like dirty Diana and remember the time and of course a bunch of his old ones you know beat it or Billie Jean thriller just about everything off the thriller album Don't start till you get enough I mean don't stop so and so forth and then there's some songs with his brothers like can you feel it I love the 9-minute version

[@vovindequasahi]

-Such a great song!

[@torpedoboy4]

“Wonderful Christmastime” is Paul McCartney (solo) and not part of the Beatles catalogue

[@KingReezy-bl9ku]

Wow awesome you guys do some more mj reactions with the mom and live songs

[@pileus_storm]

The narrative of the video is reminiscent to the street hustle. Similar to what was known as 3 card molly during the 80s. The hustle was to lure in unsuspecting gamblers who liked to gamble. The ploy was to get ppl who were just standing by to intrigue passersby as they viewed someone winning. Not knowing that the winner was actually part of the crew. So Latoyas presence in the video was supposed to be a new venture they were going to be on. Shes recognizable because thats what they wanted the viewers to know. She was going to be in on their new hustle. But the video plays it out like a love interest but it's us tgat are the ones being hustled and confused just like the actors in their first hustle. Thats all it is.

[@mistyfaella3115]

Fun fact: it wasn’t scripted for Paul to put the shaving cream on his cheek. Since Michael laughed and went with it so well they kept it in.

[@blawrence2496]

Oh good I requested this Kool video😂

[@PRODUCEDBYKEV]

Been a Jackson fan since 1969. @7:13 y'all silly 😀

[@Whologin]

Sony/ATV solely now owns the rights to the BeAtles catalogue, after the Jackson estate sold their shares.

[@patticrichton1135]

Paul also owns some of then now. He has always owned all his solo works. ( That is BeAtles with an "A" not like the bug.

[@phoenixxking4156]

Check out MJ Wanna be start in something live 1988

[@Mckinzie-ww7hb]

[@you2449]

Paul McCartney actually had a chance to buy the Beatles music catalog before Michael. But Yoko Ono (John Lenon's wife, who owned his rights) She told Paul to Wait, thinking that the price would eventually go down. Big mistake.

[@lorilxn1597]

Linda McCartney is the blonde, Paul's wife

[@mightyanthony8297]

THE GIRL IS MINE is another song they did check it out

[@champagnebulge1]

When you said MJ bought the whole Beatles catalog I was hoping it meant he bought it FOR McCartney, who couldn't afford it or something. Damn.

[@THEPATRIOT1000]

How about some Jackson 5 on Ed Sullivan?

[@mistyfaella3115]

Michael asked Paul if he would mind if he bought the catalog. Paul and Yoko were going to buy it together but decided against because it was so expensive. That’s when Michael moved forward. I think their falling out was more due to the fact that Michael allowed a Beatles song in a commercial. Paul didn’t want that to happen feeling it will be overplayed but Michael allowed it anyway supposedly telling Paul, it’s just business.

McCartney had no problem with Michael at the end. Paul said he called him up and ask for a part of the songs he wrote himself. MJ said no. "It's just business Paul" In the end Paul told David Letterman it was just business and there was no big bust up. Don't spin shit.

[@Psabdaddy]

I love your videos. This is the great music we grew up with. Too my knowledge Michael ask Paul for financial advice and Michael took the personal advise and bought the Beatles catalog. Michael wouldn’t let Paul buy it back. You want to have a chance to own your songs and hard work. You guys are really worshipping Michael which is nice but he was a great businessman. Paul sound is great too but you hardly notice. Please stop pausing at the wrong times. Yeah that’s Latoya and it’s only a video so it’s not weird . It’s acting you three.

[@Mckinzie-ww7hb]

There’s not a such thing as “worshipping Michael” Nobody knows what actually went down but they never hated eachother. Yes they were friends at first but they simply grew apart. Michael was the greatest at everything so there is no such thing as worshipping him. Yes Michael was a great businessman but he put in hard work into his music since he was five. Dont discredit him.

[@JAEA7W]

Definitely sounds like you’re speculating a lot was wonderful Xmas time even apart of the Beatles catalog it’s not their song so that doesn’t sound likely that’s like saying you bought the Jackson 5 catalog now you own thriller.

[@Biscuitsslamnation]

If you're going to check out the Beatles which I do suggest cuz there's a lot of great music there You also have to check them out individually John Lennon's imagine and the wheels are turning are probably two of my favorites I can't remember a lot of the ones from the rest cuz I was just listening to those the other day that's why I remember but also check out Paul McCartney and wings they've got some good songs banned on the run Jesus I'm having a brain fart silly love songs which is one of my favorites someone's knocking at the door I thinks the name of that other one anyhow you need to check all them out it's a good education on music plus they sound fantastic just like Michael and Prince and kilo Ali Duran Duran iced tea LL Cool J Eminem there's a lot of great groups out there I don't know how long y'all been on this this is the first time I've seen you but if you're just getting on here like another gentleman I was talking to who just started about 6 months ago yeah there's a lot that he's never heard of because of his age and I would say the same for the young gentleman in the middle and I'm not sure on the young ladies but whenever you can try to listen to something older and you can imagine how much better the music was back then versus nowadays

[@smittybenzo4693]

Yes Paul gave Michael advice on owning catalogs. Michael told Paul "Well Im gonna buy the Beatles" Paul laughed it off but when he found out MJ actually purchased the catalog a few years later, in Pauls words he said, "That son of a b****." 😂 . Michael owned multiple catalogs of popular musicians including Sly And The Family Stone, Jackie Wilson and Ray Charles amongst others. Edit: Oh yea Eminem

[@sandrotavini8838]
