It was clear to see from the gate that Michael was destined for stardom. We will never again witness a kid so advanced in singing, dancing, and entertaining all at once.

[@rodneyplayer5785]

The Jackson 5 was my very first concert. I was like 8 or 9. They were really good. Michael was clearly the shining star of the group.

[@gregc9491]

It is absolutely insane that from that time there, literally until the day he died he was performing.......and not at a reduced level at all. That's just crazy.

[@josephrocha142]

Born to entertain! God given talent.

[@PauTay942]

I was the same age as Michael and remember this appearance and the Ed Sullivan Show appearance. Forever a fan. In todays world where so many beat up on Simone Biles and Naomi Osaka, prodigies themselves, for protecting their mental and physical health I wonder how things may have been different for Michael if he could have done the same thing or someone done that for him.

@Mark Barnwell #F💚CTS Oh my goodness!!! What a thoughtful and thought provoking comment!💚💚 The stigma and criticism of Human Beings and anything related to Brain health (it is an organ like a kidney, lung etc. after all) are pervasive and archaic. This is the 21st century yet views and misunderstandings remain (barely changed) on par with the 19th century.

[@DeCurtaRican]

Not just Michael but all of the Jackson kids. And what about child stars like River Phoenix, Todd Bridges, Dana Plato, Gary Coleman, etc.

[@PauTay942]

I so agree.

[@NicholasGreen-b6e]

The stuff that happened to mj....was. so sad

[@erickthefantabulous1]

It's my 1st time watching this on your channel the 1st song I want you back was live the 2nd song ABC was not done live but they were so slick with it you could hardly tell unless you have a keen ear for that

[@funkpill]

To have to dance & sing, while playing that ridiculous🎶I Want You Back🎶 bass line, makes Jermaine a genius.

[@nohalfstep4435]

incredible - he absorbed everything and put it out with so much style and how tight was the whole band?!

[@mitchellbanks34]

“I Want You Back” was sung and played live since it had already been out for several months, burned into the public’s brains, and it had already reached the #1 spot. It was their debut single and it reached #1. This was the first time “ABC” had ever been played on the air so they had to just play the record so it could make an impression on the audience and viewers so they’ll go out and buy the latest single. Every musical act did that back in those days. The 3rd song they performed, “Zip A Dee Do Dah”, was on their very first album several months before and it’s a cover that the character Uncle Remus sang in the vaulted live action/ animated 1946 Disney film “Song Of The South”; and “There Was A Time” is a James Brown song. Fun Fact: They were the first group to have their first 4 singles consecutively reach the #1 spot. They were “I Want You Back” in 1969, “ABC”, “The Love You Save”, and “I’ll Be There” in 1970.

[@getoveritmedia3155]

Thank you for the info. Some of this I did not know. FYI- I'll Be There is their biggest hit sales wise. It also was their very last Pop #1 hit.

[@robinbeerman4726]

Learned to dance to them.

[@shyphyre]

I surely remember seeing this episode of American Bandstand when it first Aired in early 1970. " I Want You Back" was their recent breakthrough hit, that everyone had heard on the radio during the past several months. And ABC was about to be released when this episode aired. It became another big hit within a few weeks.

[@A.Light33]

MJ/Jackson 5 and Janet all make me feel so happy and lighthearted . MJ was also my first crush in the early 90s lol, along with another MJ, Michael Jordan. Michael is a true ham here but so adorable🥰

[@kierstenridgway4634]

This was all over AM radio. AM radio wasn't what it is today. I loved the song Ben. ❤✌

[@thetesaflorez4521]

Natural born talent

[@kevsherril158]

It was Gladys knight and the pips who discovered them in Chicago…..but Diana Ross was Motown top lady

[@bartomiej6591]

Because he said excluding Motown and I think Diana Ross was in Motown

[@laminage]

It wasn't from The Hollywood Palace as seen in The Miniseries, it was from American Bandstand and keep in mind that Dick Clark virtually had every Motown Artist on The Show. Also they were the last Group to Audition for Motown in 1968 before they moved out to Los Angeles. It was the first of many appearances. The Jackson Family hold the Distinction of having every Single Member on The Show. The Jackson Five, Michael Singing Solo, Janet, Rebbie LaToya, and Jermaine.

[@donnajordan4080]

He was born to be an entertainer! A true Legend!

[@pamelajones-meadows7627]

🔥🔥 my Childhood 💕

[@tracydavis5253]

Young bro mike was a Child prodigy of Soul Music and like sponge he Absorbed what was Around him which was Real singing imagine seeing them live as A Child like did I was Six yrs of Age when I saw them perform at the world's Famous Apollo In Harlem lil MJ was a few years older than me I was blow away at the kid not much older than I was Having Adults screaming for him his Vocals were out of this world filling up the theater the whole Band was solid Yes The Jackson Five we're A Band just like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones not A KIDDIE GROUP PLEASE KEEP THAT IN MIND IN YOUR FUTURE Reactions

[@MsKplummer]

I remember seeing the Jackson 5 live at Joe Louis in Detroit!

[@ronpaizley9349]

The. Black n white part is JB's "there was a time" James Brown & lil.mike is killing it !!!

[@videocat1366]

Whoa, man. There was a whole lot of history in that black and white portion. "Shake your moneymaker" is a James Brown slogan and those dance moves were his. It was almost like a tribute to Brown. The other song was "Zip-a-dee Do-dah" from a Disney movie called Song of the South. It was sung by an enslaved man in the movie, but the film has been criticized for its sugar-coated depiction of slavery. Interesting that they in essence give the Wakanda Forever salute at the beginning 11:24 , but of course this was way before that. Just ironic, as it's a slave song.

[@lauanasimmons7202]

Great reaction. Saw them as a kid. It was my first concert ever. They were fantastic!!!

[@johnneils9084]

That was great...adorable powerhouse. Undeniable talent! Great request!

[@lanagorgeous9485]

OMG, this is amazing, and I grew up on them 👩🏾

[@harriettholmes539]

An old soul in a little body.lol More MJ reactions please.

[@marksaguindel1903]

Love the George Duke intro!

[@DeCurtaRican]

Amazing artists…all of them.

[@russelbarnes7235]

Grew up loving the J5. I was born 3 months before Michael and felt represented by him and Prince, (also born in 1958). Got to be There, Maybe Tomorrow and Their earliest song Big Boy, are my suggestions for you to react to. Lots of great songs besides those though. Dive deep JJ. Peace.

[@MikeJones-oc7ch]

Mashed potatoes was a dance James Brown made popular.All these moves are James Browns.

[@carolinabajardo1364]

mj forever

[@user-fe7nj3vk4t]

That was live .

[@moniquedavis7604]

Check for Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers

[@shaeead9654]

Didn’t u know someone name Alip ba ta covered MJ Black or white…n he’s really good with his acoustic guitar…✌🏻

[@TheFargo116]

LOVE IT.....I Want You Back and the medley of songs were live....ABC was lip synched.....Notice who the group admired the most at that time.....The Beatles who remain the biggest selling artists of all times and The Delfonics.....lol....i have suggested in the comment section quite a few times you should react to more Delfonics.....they were a fantastic philly group.....also Dick Clark mentioned Frankie Lymon.....Frankie Lymon was the MJ of the 50s.....he had hits with his group TheTeenagers and solo at a very young age like MJ......Frankie is one of the many who inspired MJ.....i do hope you also react to some Frankie Lymon.....superstar of his time and also tragic life.... there are many high quality performance video of him which is amazing since it is from the 50s......great J5 performance and great reaction

[@austinedwards7795]

React to the Jacksons 1979 bandstand like when there older after the jackson 5 and before starting off the wall it’s amazing you should check it out 👍🏿💯

[@SopranoSistah]

(Sigh) No words❣️

[@lb8471]

Girl, this was and still is my boy!! MJ, Prince, Janet and Teena Marie have always been my four favorites.

[@HimFinancial]

whats the intro song?

[@dgodfrey3914]

Omg what little girl didn't love them?

[@badvlad63]

Artists always lip synced to the studio recording

[@unknown-pt9fk]

They were heavily coached by Motown. They wanted that Michael lied about his age.

[@funkpill]

1970, he was 12

[@kc718201]

I want you back I think was live. ABC definitely wasn't lol

[@leroywilliams1176]

MM, American Bandstand was big venue back in the day, I think second to the Ed Sullivan Show. The Jackson 5 had arrived.....classic request....

[@wakeupstopsleeping6300]

Yup it sure was I was 2 going on near 3 with this performance nice one MM❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@PRODUCEDBYKEV]

It's good ol' fashion lip sync

[@linnipratt6804]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@annmills3163]

☮️💜.

[@MusicFan.....]

Believe it or not Michael actually lied about his age in this interview, he was actually 12 when he did this performance, They forced him too lie to keep the cute little kid image or something, kinda messed up to be honest,RIP Michael Jackson🙏

[@lb8471]

Yeah, you can see it all over his face. He HATED the lies.

[@funkpill]

Probably forced them to say that they liked The Beatles 😄 Who would've thought that this 12 yr old will buy their catalog a decade later.
