The last song the 6 brothers performed together in 2001. What a ride. My favorite Jacksons song.

[@errolthomas9426]

No doubt about that

[@kareemeverison]

Yes so true I Remember and that performance was Epic and legendary this is definitely my favorite Jacksons song too I still love when the remaining 4 of the original Jackson 5 perform it and although MJ is missing Marlon still dances well and gives us that Jacksons magic

[@VenusianSanctuary]

This is my favourite too!!!! Reminds me of my childhood, rollerskating indoors, listening to this on vinyl!

[@jaysteve8048]

"LETS DANCE, LETS SHOUT, SHAKE YOUR BODY DOWN TO THE GROUND" was inspired by Mr. Marvin Gaye's ad lib shout out "lets dance-lets shout--gettin funky what it's all about" in his smash hit and ever enduring tune 'Got To Give It Up'. RIP Mr. Jackson and Mr. Gaye.

[@SharonDoucette]

Yes!! You just transported me back to my teens. Both of these songs were incredibly popular at the Friday night dances at the Rec Center in my neighborhood. When they played them back to back we thought we’d hit the lottery. Then, follow up with Bounce, Rock, Skate, Roll by Vaughan Mason & Crew. We burned a lot of calories on the dance floor.

[@marvinbailey9978]

This is one of the best songs by the Jackson’s as a group

I don’t think there’s one musician that gives off so much positive energy as MJ. Not one.

[@lavonnealexander6936]

Their are some but he really is a positive loving guy. That’s what I loved about him.

[@sharonclay1311]

Prince is awesome

[@TeddyxxMexx]

Axl Rose lol, jk he’s the negative energy type

[@andremosley9358]

An opinion!!!! He was great 👍🏽… but that doesn’t take from other great artists

[@andremosley9358]

Actually I’ve never seen or heard of him Playing any 🎹…. So he is just a singer/entertainer….

[@SJames-vl8fq]

MJ ... the greatest entertainer in the world. He is sorely missed...

[@michaelbruns449]

Its totally wrong, a mystery to me, how this awesome song was not a huge number one hit anywhere back in 1979, when its obviously the best damn song they ever made together.

[@rommix0]

It was still big though (Hot 100: #7)

[@darrellmfume3513]

Michael, There was A LOT of Jams on the Charts back in early 1979. Do Ya Think I'm Sexy. Rod Stewart. What A Fool Believe. The Dobbie Brothers. Too Much Heaven. By The Bee Gees/just to name a few...Shake Your Body Down To The Ground. #7 Pop, and # 3 R&B...NOT BAD. Matter of fact. That's Great.

[@giovanna722]

It's one of the best pop funk songs ever. Nice mix of it, too.

[@iansmith384]

It was number 4 here. Great track. Pax to all from soulboy73.Xxx.

Micheal Jackson Lives On 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@brianhines1452]

I'm sure Mrs. Katherine Jackson is extremely proud of what her sons accomplished! And I'm really sure Joe Jackson is STILL smiling in his afterlife! The best family group in not just Black American Music but in ALL Music!

[@mysticakhenaton1701]

all of it was JOE Idea/vision, putting that family group together. and it was JOE who got them into Motown at the right time. and it was JOE who got them OUT of Motown at the right time. that move, getting them OUT of Motown. saved their careers. leaving Motown for Epic. Motown cut off the group royalties checks, trying to destroy them. Joe took the family to Las Vegas back in 1975/to do shows. to bring in revenue/money. saving their home in Encino/L.A. and pay other creditors...ALL JOE. he doesn't get enough credit, ALL BY HIMSELF.

[@MrCancer1965]

When Michael Jackson died I remember that Congress had a moment of silence on the Congress floor. And also in Pakistan they held a candle light visual in honor of Michael Jackson and they hate America. But they love them some Michael Jackson though. Also in Brazil they did the Thriller dance in honor of Michael Jackson. All of this speak volumes of how big an artist this man was and there will never be another like him.

[@conradford7493]

Great knowledge. And yes we never will 😢have a artist like Michael Jackson. 😢

The super duper Jacksons. Man oh man these brothers are so special to me because you never get tired listening and dancing to them. Show the way to Go, Jump for Joy, Shake your body down to the Ground and State of Shock these are my fav Jacksons classics. RIP Brother Mike Jackson 58-09

Michael Jackson 😢❤

[@chetperry3384]

November 8, 1979 at Nassau Coliseum. My first Jacksons concert. Off The Wall had just come out. LTD (featuring Jeffrey Osborne) was the opening act. This was the final song in their set. Michael said “break it down” right at the 6:22 point on this recording. They DEMOLISHED that place y’all ! I had just turned 15 years old. Fortunately, there is video footage from that very show on KZbin. Accompanied by clips from a segment 20/20 did on them, which aired in early 1980. One of those defining nights in your youth that you never, ever forget. With all due respect to the success of Thriller, I prefer the days of the Destiny Tour and the Triumph Tour.

[@SharonDoucette]

Ditto. It was one of the integral songs in my social ‘coming out’. I was an extremely shy 15 year old. I would go to the weekly Friday night dances at the community center, but just stand on the wall. One night I stood to close to the speakers and various body parts just started to move to the sound of the beat, next thing you know- I’m dancing. I was totally addicted. My little crew and I went out several nights a week, including school nights.

Were!

[@cubdukat]

They had to be. If "Destiny" flopped, that was it. Epic was going to dump them. They were told that this was going to be their last chance, and they more than rose to the occasion. I think the thing that made it the best of all their Epic albums was the same thing Janet found later: control. For once in their career, they finally had it, and they took full advantage of it. They didn't have Motown or Berry Gordy in their corner telling them what to do, what to sing, or anything like that. This was all theirs, they earned it.

[@dragonpullman23]
