Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5 Reaction Let It Be & Never Can Say Goodbye

[@marilynbergemann6808]

I can never say goodbye Michael. R. I.P.

[@lauracaruso2524]

I love the Jackson Five! And Michael, a spectacular genius. The GOAT!

[@injailoutsoon1998]

Unreal performance Mike the goat don't @me...

[@psycheinc-theSLC]

I second that - Psyche

[@JelaniStokes]

Yeah....I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Michael 's voice during this period!

[@blairjane9228]

My favorite version that they have done of never can say goodbye Michaels vocals sound SO good here gives me chills every time

[@JelaniStokes]

His vocal control was just immaculate!! I could listen to him during this time all day!

[@east00]

He really started changing around 72, 73. He was able to sing Ben live similarly for bout 3 years. By 74 his voice completely changed and it was stronger, tho he didn't hold notes as long and you could start hearing his breathing on the mic which itself sounded like an instrument how he used it.

[@JelaniStokes]

And I find that to be soooo fascinating! It's rare for us as an audience to see and hear a vocalist go through puberty. Especially when concerning a male vocalist as the male vocal change tends to be a drastic change vs. a female vocal change. I just love hearing how he started to find ways around this difficult time and still sounds amazing. I love listing to all of his recordings during this time (Jackson 5- Looking through the Windows - Moving Violation.)

[@east00]

@@JelaniStokes Yea he us the best male singer that we heard through puberty. Tevin Campbell was really good also.

[@catsara9114]

Sooo beautiful! I love how Michael was phrasing here.

[@Tlou_777]

even when Michaels voice changed a lot he stilll sounded grate

[@JelaniStokes]

Yes! He always had the skills to make a song awesome!

[@2kdemiks816]

one of my fav underrated performances.. them boys sang that with so much soul !

[@JelaniStokes]

In my opinion, this is when Michael started to enter his vocal peak which ironically was during his male vocal change. He had such control over his voice that he could turn any song into a Michael Jackson classic!

[@2kdemiks816]

Jermaine's a very underrated bass player too ! not many people commend Jermaine for his bass skills

[@JelaniStokes]

It's soo funny that you say that because it was actually Jermaine Jackson who inspired and prompted me to play bass with given the option in high school. He's song Bass Odyssey is a perfect example of the fire 🔥 on produces on bass!

[@marilynbergemann6808]

I used to like Jermaine but he turned into such a jerk. Michael had all the true talent in the group.

[@2kdemiks816]

@@marilynbergemann6808 not true at all, they’ve personally written & produced so many hits, can dance, perform, and etc.. they’re all talented

[@psycheinc-theSLC]

Very good - really enjoyed that!

Thank you Psyche!! I can always count on you to provide positive vibes and energy!

[@312jayc]

A musical genius…loved this live clip! Love how knowledgeable you are on the history of the musicians/songs you review. I learn something new every time!

[@JelaniStokes]

He was at his absolute best vocally starting around this time.

[@SarahAli-oc8hy]

King MJ the greatest of all times 👑👑

[@JelaniStokes]

One of my ALL-TIME Favorites!!

[@east00]

First time I heard thise crazy adlibs and and grunts was 1977's You Cant Win. He even did it for the Thriller Album.

[@JelaniStokes]

Again, This is him adopting a new style based on the fact the he is no longer the "little" Michael Jackson. He has to find another way to express the song. AND BOY DOES HE SUCCEED!

[@east00]

@@JelaniStokes He picked up on things fast and perfected it. He took the, "hee hee" from Stevie and 1st used it on Blame it on the Boogie. Then took "Cha Mon" from a female black soul singer and used it during Bad era.

[@charitychanda1550]

OMG 🤯🤯 this is great 💖

[@JelaniStokes]

Thank you! But I can't take credit for Michael's incredible gift!

[@cristianonascimentocrhis7093]

mj maravilhoso

[@2kdemiks816]

i can really tell your heavily passionate into this, it's very compelling and insightful🙏🏽 I can really see you blowing up once the quality of the vids go up a little bit

[@JelaniStokes]

I love sharing my love of music with people. This is one of the main reasons I became a music teacher. Music has the ability to impact lives for the better. Something I want to continue share and spread to the world. Thank you for your sincere words!!

[@terrigabriel582]

Back then He was EVERY Girls " Heart Throb" No one cared abouts the voice change ... true Story , and Continued Throughout

[@JelaniStokes]

That is true! No matter the time, he was ALWAYS sought after!

[@matrox]

Before Johnny Carson, Jack Paar hosted the Tonight Show, after Johnny a man name Jay Leno hosted the Tonight Show.😁

[@Rose-h7q3s]

I felt like this was Michaels light emo stage. The hair and light eyeliner he used to wear gave that feeling off. I do think Michael was going through a phase here.

[@JelaniStokes]

I think he was always searching for happiness and contentment. I think this explains his different phases throughout his life. Unfortunately, I don't think he was ever able to find it.

[@dpaint3702]

As much as I love angry Mike . I HEAR YA BRO.. 73 to 91 .. after Dangerous it was ANGER ..

[@JelaniStokes]

His voice had so many dimensions to it that he could sing anything and truly make it his own.

[@dpaint3702]

Excluding Invincible.. he went back to that with songs like break of Dawn heaven can wait , butterflies , don’t walk away , whatever happens

[@JelaniStokes]

Oh those ARE MY JAMS on Invincible!

[@dpaint3702]

RIGHT MAN .. like anything .. he could spit too .. “money” for example 🔥 & superfly sister is a sleeper as well man

[@JelaniStokes]

That whole family is just criminally underrated....
