Remembering the old school Jackson 5 - I Want You Back and ABC

[@YeekTV_Atlanta]

Man..... Michael was such a pure, innocent and beautiful soul! An angel sent to us from heaven! Man I miss him so much. The Greatest Artist that ever lived... He is my joy and inspiration!!! We all love you buddy!!! 😢😢😢

[@Danny-bg9op]

The charisma was off the charts..michael was truly special.

[@dominikabila7481]

Yes He is the Best singer on the Word for me, but He has Very heavy life in his childhood his songs gives love And hapiness everywhere.and now He IS in heaven. I think i am his fan from the Czek Republik.incredible voice

[@shaydentaylor2565]

Everybody knows he's dead but he's alive in all our hearts

[@davidpearlactorteacherbizman]

Well stated. I didn't come a fan till 2007. When he passed in 2009 I was horrified it took a long time to come to grips with it it felt like a death in the family. I started looking at more of his music and videos after that. Wow he was just unbelievable probably the best all around performer of all time maybe the greatest dancer of all time definitely one of the greatest singers and songwriters I can't believe all that creativity came out of one person. I can't believe we lost him so early.

[@blessedk77]

Those afros, those smiles, those clothes, that music! J5 is magic!

[@michaelgreen3793]

I cried listening to this... They destroyed that young innocent boy. Michael owned the stage. He was only 9 years old. RIP

[@byronmerricks6684]

Michael Jackson Is the greatest performer ever!!

[@Malik-bw1wp]

He was literally number one in all countries, his music, his moonwalk, he exploded into populatiry when he released his music.

[@Hotters9060]

Byron Merricks Who was the drummer in the back ground in this video?

[@czechchicklet5847]

Hotters 7060 @ 4:40 Michael introduces him as "Johnny on the drums". Dick Clark stated before that they were related. If you wanted more info, you could Google it. Cheers!

[@Hotters9060]

czechchicklet I was wondering if there was another drummer before Johnny. According to Wikipedia the Jackson 5 was founded back in 1964 with Tito, Jermaine, and Jackie. Michael and Marlon joined the band some time later.

[@vipjcaq]

I totaly melted when I saw that gorgeous boy .. World still miss him

[@tin1893]

I love that he made a small mistake at 3:19 when he thought the song was over and the look in his eyes but he was so quick to cover it, he was a genius since the beginning

[@gradybaby_kv]

X-Venture gaming omygosh its michael he was akway the main singer in their group lol

[@bashbro1able]

I don't know how many people noticed this, but I find it really funny. Michael messed up at 3:20 - notice he puts his hand on his hip like they do at the end of the song, thinking that was it. But what's so great is that while most child performers might've panicked or stumbled a little, Michael smoothly transitions into some harmonizing to play it off. Such a mature and seasoned performer at such a young age. It's amazing.

[@TheJazzplease]

I thought time healed all wounds, but I promise everyday I think about you and it's like June 25th all over again. Sweet Soul, you are dearly missed. It nevers get better, you just get used to carrying the pain.

Nobody but Michael Jackson's music makes my body dance automatically wheather I'm at the store. I was food shooping and Michael Jackson song Billie Jean played and while people were walking with their shopping carts. They were dance-walking, shaking their body, and snacpping their fingers. There will never be another michael jackson, he was once in a person's lifetime for people to hear his music of his music he made.

Самый самый. Безумно красивые глазки и великолепная улыбка у Майкла. Харизма зашкаливает даже в таком раннем возрасте.

[@tileartist59]

Interpretation: The most. Michael's insanely beautiful eyes and a great smile. Charisma is off the charts even at such an early age.

When MJ said about the Beatles in 5:45 in 1970, 15 years later, he owned the Beatles Catalogue like a boss, just 15 years later from 1970.

RIP Micheal and Johnny, I will miss them both, Vocals and drums.

[@dakdixon1298]

I can hardly watch his performances from this age/size. Knowing what he was going thru off stage but still able to come out, sing & dance with that sweet innocence & beautiful soul & kept the show going with that perfect little smile on his face. It breaks my heart but his voice was so pure & joyful, I can't help myself. I guess I should just break out the old vinyls instead of watching.... 💔🤴🏽✌🏽

They sound so great LIVE! Pure talent. Not a studio creation. I was looking for the one they did when his voice changed as a teen. That was even better.

[@nirmalakamble9630]

[@clumsey1000]

No one ever give Mr. Jackson credit for raising a family of young black talented men and woman. I guess because they didn't have a ball in there hands! SMH!

Cuz he beat the shit out of them are u kidding me? He ruined Michaels childhood and him as an adult

Interpretation: @RoselineTehoue Michael was a singing machine! We barely get the microphone before he improvises.

I'm surprised Michael didn't name James Brown as someone he admired most in music

[@PoloBoyPrince]

i they were all told to say the Beatles etc. they all hesitated when they were asked the question

[@TheLarryBrown]

Yeah me too, or Diana Ross. But If James Brown was Motown then that's why, cuz Dick Clark said outside Motown. Michael did like Three Dog Night because he heard the song "Mama told me not to come" and assumed it was a black singer and group and thenwas impressed to hear they where white and yet had so much "soul."

[@lavitawilliams4779]

Michael is at peace now. It was time for him s soul to evolve.

[@Mariellesacramento]

Michael Jackson nasceu com a estrela na testa! Já vi várias crianças cantando, mas pra cantar igual a ele, com a voz dele, com esta mesma afinação e ainda dançar, com certeza o mundo ainda não viu. Talento raro! Um pessoa premiada com talento de vidas passadas , e com uma idade tão tenra, já cantava com maturidade... De forma que teve uma morte precoce como já tivesse vivido uns 80 anos.

[@tileartist59]

Interpretation: Michael Jackson was born with the star on his forehead! I've seen several children singing, but to sing like him, with his voice, with this same tuning and still dance, surely the world has not seen it. Rare talent! An award-winning person with past-life talent, and at such a young age, he was already singing with maturity... So he died an early death like he had lived about 80 years.
