Watched this live. Everyone gathered round the TV with our 4 channels and watched Ed Sullivan each week.

[@hectorsmommy1717]

He knew how to give the people what they wanted, even if they didn't know they wanted it. Modern music, opera, Broadway, comedy, magicians, and Topo Gigio. All live. For those of us living in small town America it was wonderful.

[@UTubeHandlesSuck]

I always called it 3.5 channels myself. PBS was sort of a semi-channel. 😁

[@garyzink1927]

Exactly what mom and my ɓrothers and me did, dad liked country so he didn't watch. 4 channels was right!

[@garyzink1927]

Peace from Northern Michigan!

[@tommythompson9565]

Sounds just like the experience of my family. And with regards to having 4 channels, I recall how big a deal it was when we got the 4th channel in New Orleans. What channel was it? FOX ? I don't remember. But we were all sitting in front of the TV, anticipating the channel going live at 7 pm, I think it was. The Jackson 5 were incredible. As was The Ed Sullivan Show.

[@harpergras]

Janet was a toddler during this time period. Even though Michael was the most famous at this time, all of the brother's each had a large fan following.

[@SandraSealySeawomanBDS]

Don't forget sisters Reba and Latoya.

[@kenj280]

Jackson 5 sold over 100 million records and are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They have performed on five or six continents!

This guy asking what happened to the rest of them, like they were just some hired studio singers they went out and found. lol

Ed Sullivan helped make stars out of many bands and singers. Every Sunday families would watch Ed’s show ❤

[@carlgibbons5777]

What is crazy is that some of Michael's signature dance moves from all of his videos were already taking shape here. Jackson was born to be a performer.

We never missed the Jackson Five on Ed Sullivan. You had to watch when it was on because we didn't have recorders. RIP MICHAEL YOU ARE SORELY MISSED.🙏🕊️✌️🌻🌻

That's crazy seeing I grew up listening to The Jackson 5, that there are people who don't know about Michael Jackson's early start with his brothers. Motown was big back then and it didn't matter if you were black or white we all loved it.

[@harpergras]

The Jackson 5 were major stars back in the day. When they were on TV or performing somewhere, it seemed like every thing stopped. No one wanted to do anything except watch them.

[@GoldenLady1007]

Yes, indeed. Our neighbors didn't have a color TV yet, so they came to our house to watch. It was a MAJOR event. 💛

@@keifermark For sure. They were awesome.

[@gregc9491]

People either forget or don't realize that the Jackson 5 came about & existed on the Motown label in an era where actual talent was required & acts were groomed for professionalism. These kids were surrounded by Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson, The Supremes, Stevie Wonder just on there label & interacted with even more greats.

[@joycemanning1254]

Motown Great music

Saw the Jackson 5 as a kid on their dancing machine tour stop in Lake Tahoe. Still remember it nearly 50 years later. No doubt Michael was born with "IT".

[@joehouse3800]

Michael Jackson was always the Star that stood out!!

[@mofun5315]

What happened to the rest of them. Really? lol

[@charlessheifer2264]

Everyone in the country watched The Ed Sullivan Show every Sunday evening for 27 years. It was what families did in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. Ed was the most powerful celebrity on TV - he could make or break your career in a heartbeat. If he called you over after your performance to stand with him for a few seconds - you knew you made it. Every famous movie star, tv star, Broadway star, nightclub star, sports star, politician, circus star, ventriloquist, puppeteer, acrobats, writers, authors, playwright, etc. made an appearance on his show. A piece of Americana history.

[@George-kv6gm]

The third song was "I Want You Back". For me, it was their biggest hit. Well, one of their biggest, anyways. This was December '69. Thanks for a great reaction, and God bless you!

[@pompanomark2024]

I’m always stunned when people don’t know much about the J5 - guess I’m old!

[@jamesgeorge5276]

I was shocked to hear that they never heard of the Jackson 5 or the first time hearing their music!! I'm feeling a type of way about that because they are not teenagers but look to be in their early thirties and should have heard something by them J5 by now!! WOW!

[@LMmccallL57]

A lot of people don't bother to look for music outside one or two genres, and/or won't think to listen to anything older than what they listened to in high school. I think it's pretty sad due to my experience, but of course we're all raised differently. I was raised on Motown, so I definitely knew about the Jackson 5, The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson, etc. I was also raised on artists like Al Jarreau, The Manhattan Transfer, Barry White, The Bee Gees, KC and The Sunshine Band, Journey, Gino Vanelli, Johnny Taylor, BB King, The Isley Brothers, Teddy Pendergrass, Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight & The Pips, and more. I'm always surprised by reactors whose parents/elders didn't introduce them to great and very well-known singers and musicians.

[@ru2yaz33]

"I'll Be There" and "Ben"

[@gregc9491]

It continues to blow my mind that he was a performer, giving it everything he had on stage from this age literally until the day he died. That is just crazy

[@catsara9114]

His brother Tito (he is on guitar here) said in an interview that Michael was 5 years old when he sang a song at a kindergarten show, and everyone was blown away by his performance :-)

[@Blkmail]

They were a live band. No recorded vocals or instruments this was done live. They sound just like the record. This was done when music was real! Nothing fake like it is today!😊

[@itsjustnaima]

This kid ended up releasing the biggest selling album of all time only 13 Years later, it’s crazy!! Long live the greatest to ever do it!! They used to call him a 45 Year old Midget back in the day! 😁 Would love to see you react to MJ’s Come Together and Earth Song MV’s! 🫶🏼😊 Come together is his Version of the Beatles’ Track and lemme tell ya - he took the track to a whole another level! 🔥

[@Eowyn187]

I'd honestly forgotten the level of talent he had as a boy. Many years since I heard this. And he's only a child here. Lhm. Greater talent than most adults. Esp of late. Wow.

[@harpergras]

The last song they did was a hit for them. They were together as a professional group for about 12 years. When they left Motown, Jermaine ( on Bass ) stayed with the label mainly because he was married to the daughter of the owner of Motown. Then the youngest brother ( Randy ) replaced Jermaine. They stayed together for a few more years until Michael went solo. The rest of the group member's went solo for a short time period, but were not very successful. Over the years while Michael was a solo act, he would still perform with his brother's on tour from time to time. All of the sister's ( Rebbie, LaToya and Janet ) had solo careers with Janet being the most successful. Michael was the youngest at 10 years old in this video.

[@da.ma.ba123]

Yes, also in Germany 😊

[@harpergras]

@@da.ma.ba123 Awesome.

[@sunshinehoover4630]

[@harpergras]

@sunshinehoover4630 Yes he was.

[@XP9724]

Even tho the other brothers weren't as successful as Michael or Jermaine, one cool thing that makes this family so legendary is that all 9 siblings had at least 1 charting hit throughout their careers. Making them the only family in music history to do something like that which is pretty awesome.

[@sandie13]

My family and I lived in Gary, Indiana in the '60's when the Jacksons lived there. Where we lived and where the Jacksons lived were on opposite sides of Gary. In 1968, my oldest sister graduated from high school, and the Jackson Five sang at her graduation. This was about a year or two before the Jackson FIve had their first hit.

[@AM_9924]

Michael Jackson was born to sing & entertain. Simply as that. Legend.

[@jasminew8835]

I'd like to see y'all react to their music video Blame it on the Boogie. Michael was killing then too. They were older and went under the name the Jacksons then because they left motown. !!!!

totally lip-synched dude.

[@johncagnettajr344]

@@JuandeFucaU Everybody sang with the orchestra or with a group. Performances were live there was no lip-synching on The Ed Sullivan Show; it was a class Prime Time show. Shows like Dick Clark's American Bandstand which were not primetime more often liked lip-syncing. Variety shows that were on Primetime had a choice, but the upscale ones had live performances. Ed Sullivan demanded that everyone do a run-through live and if their song was too long the orchestra or the individual musicians had to cut it. Beatles, Stones , Jackson Five, Mamas and Papas, Doors, Buffalo Springfield all performed live.

[@SD-it9ne]

@@JuandeFucaU It was live. If you knew how the record sounds then you would know that this was live.

[@pjg58x]

Not necessarily true that all singing was live. There was a famous incident when the Mamas and Papas were on the show and they were supposed to lipsync. Michelle Phillips was upset about that so she was eating a banana during the performance to show that they weren’t really singing.

[@Lovsurvives]

Janet was born in 1966 and this performance was in 1969. So Janet was only 2 or 3 years old. Also Janet is the youngest kid in the family. There were 6 boys and 3 girls in the family. Rebbie, Jackie, Tito, LaToya, Jermaine, Marlon, Michael, Randy, Janet. Marlon had a twin brother but he died I think shortly after birth.

******OhMyGreat! The Child who Could Sing & Dance better than the Adults!

[@dagmar.6954]

This was the time of sweet & innocent Michael with his brothers. You could see his great talent & charisma even at this young age. The Jackson 5 had a lot of hits in the 60's-70's such as "ABC", "Never Can Say Goodbye", "Rockin' Robin", "The Love You Save", "I'll Be There", "Mama's Pearl", "Sugar Daddy" etc. Michael Jackson's solo career started in the 70's with the songs "Got To Be There" & "Ben".

[@battlegirldeb]

If you want to see a young Janet, find Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5 on the Carol Burnette show. At the time their father came up with the idea of the whole family doing a Las Vegas act. There were 10 children in the family, but one of their brother Brandon only lived one day. The Original Jackson 5 had brothers from oldest to youngest Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon (who was Brandon's twin) and Michael. They also have another younger brother Randy who join the group later. They also have three sisters. Reba who by the time this came out was 19 and married, LaToya who was born before Marlon, and Janet who is the youngest in the family.

[@christinewaide5249]

My all time favorite is “The love you save” ❤

Brings me back to my childhood 😂😂😂 Great reaction and Peace out guys ✌️ ☮️

[@itssoph99]

Love that you guys are checking out The Jackson 5! There are so many to watch from this era but if you want to see true contrast to when they were older and Michael was in his prime you could check out their Motown 25 Medley, it also has Billie Jean’s first live performance with the very first time he performed the moonwalk, it would be nice to see you react to it next! A little background on them too: The Jackson 5 were always the boys, Janet was younger than Michael and was never in the band. The original were Jackie, Marlon, Tito, Jermaine & Michael, for a while Jermaine left and the youngest brother Randy joined, then Jermaine came back but at that point Michael was too big in his career so he officially left after their Victory tour and the rest carried on, then they were just The Jacksons, there was a lot of rivalry especially with Jermaine, he didn’t like Michael’s success and even made a whole diss track for him but it seems they ended up in good terms, they reunited in 2001 to perform again for the very last time at Michael’s 30th anniversary celebration, then after his death continued while always paying tribute to him. As for Janet she was never in the group but her and Michael do have a song together called Scream, I would say Michael was the closest to her. They seemed very happy on stage but behind them was their father Joseph who was very abusive to them, especially to Michael, and was the actual reason he started a career at just 5 years old, if they got anything wrong on rehearsals or on stage he would beat them up until they made no mistakes, not to mention the emotional and psychological abuse he put him through too. Michael clearly loved what he did but had no childhood because he spent all of it performing and that led to many issues for the rest of his life, so all of this got him to be the biggest star ever but also took a lot from him

[@hectorsmommy1717]

You really need to check out the original of "Stand" by Sly and the Family Stone. One of their best ever songs.

[@user-ud7xq4qq1b]

Diana Ross introduced them in their first public appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show and I was just blown away by Michael. The music industry must have just "chewed him up" for him to look like he did at the end compared to his natural self as a kid.

Nobody lip synced on the Ed Sullivan show. This was definitely live. Ed Sullivan was must see TV for many years. The Jackson Five (led by Michael) were the hottest thing going for a while. Sad to look at it now though, when you know the whole story of abuse from their father. He was talented his whole life but it definitely came at a cost. He wasn’t having as much fun as it looked like he was. You might want to read up on that. J5 had some great songs ABC, The Love You Save and a bunch of others.

The other brother who helped with some of the lead vocals was Jermaine,he was actually the first one to leave the group because he married Berry Gordy's daughter and as a show of loyalty he stayed behind when the rest of the group wanted to leave Motown. He went on to have a good solo career. When Jermaine left the group their youngest brother Randy joined the group and they were called The Jacksons from that point on. They also have 2 sisters besides Janet.

[@vincentsweargen8436]

The Jackson 5 was the first concert that I ever saw. It was 1973 and I was 8 years old. I was fascinated to say the least. Of course I'd heard their records and seem them on TV but this was something else. Yes, they were famous and great singers but they were kids too. They were kids that looked me.

Jermaine Jackson was the first brother to leave the group to go solo in the late 1970s, and he had a few hits. They brought in their youngest brother (Randy) to replace Jermaine and renamed the group The Jacksons. The older brothers are still performing as "The Jacksons" and singing the oldies, with their children. Randy Jackson works for Janet as a manager. They are the two youngest children out of 10 or 11 and, therefore, have a close relationship.
