This was wonderfully put together! Thanks for the memories! Donny was my first crush and Michael was my favorite performer. Both gorgeous, talented guys!
A what great musician families in those days both Donny and Michael the same age with the same numbers in their families.and started out singing near the same age.sadly Michael has passed away r.i p.michel.id say Donny being a true friend thinks about him every day and misses him .🙏godbless you Donny id say Michael knows that .Your a good person.love this video 👍✌🌻👋🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊for michael🌹🌹🌹🌹
I'm not putting Donnie down,But he was no competition for Michael,Michael had outstanding performances and He is the King 👑 of Pop and the song "one bad apple was originally written for The Jackson Five,But Barry Gordy turned it down,The Jackson Five actually paved the way for young kids groups,I like both the groups and used to enjoy them when the came out on TV back in the days growing up.R.i.P. MJ,King 👑 of Pop 💕👑💕🌹💕
I think Michael was a gorgeous child and young man and I wish he had just kept his good looks rather than destroying his handsome face. Donnie was gorgeous, too, just in a different way. They were both talented singers.
@@bettywallace3375 I don't know how the Osmonds were copycats when they started before the Jackson 5. Joe Jackson told his children to study the Osmonds
Looking back at this, I wish that Donny and Michael became close friends and relied on each other. Perhaps Donny's career would have taken a 'cooler' turn and perhaps Michael would still be here with us today...
Maybe you're not keeping up, but Donny has been involved in so much and been going strong for 60 years. Michael dealt with numerous problems & unfortunately died too soon. Think what you want, but Donny has lived a clean, healthy, happy lifestyle with no scandals. Sometimes a strong family and faith will overcome fame and money.
When Michael was having real problems, he phoned Donny. He said he had to get away, as things were about to hit the fan. Donny asked him to go and stay at his home, and Michael agreed to go, but sadly didn't turn up. If only .....
No contest, I mean Michael is a two time music hall of famer with the Jackson 5 and as a solo artist and he's the biggest and brightest of all super stars of yesterday and today. There will never be a super star of his caliber again. There will never be another Michael Jackson!
You would think Micheal and Donnie would grow to be best friends considering they both were in the spotlight their entire life. Only One can dream. love them both. I can tell Donnie wanted to be friends with Micheal, Micheal is just a hard shell to break.
They may not have been best friends but they did remain in contact and were still friends till the end :) Donny mentioned talking to Michael on the phone one last time not long before his passing.
You sound like you know that they weren't friends... they are acting in this clip. Donny tells a story about how after this show, they drove around eating tacos
@@brendalg4 I am a big fan of micheal. But Micheal had a big reputation of creating friends and ditching them. Well it isnt that he ditches them he is bad a commiment even ay a friendship level. I am the same way and its something I am trying to change in my life. But man micheal was terrible at friendships. If you look up anyone who knew micheal , they would say they were friends for a little while then stop talking. Micheal was just terrible at friendship commitment. It gets terrible as we get older but I am just saying. It has nothing to do with donnie but micheal could not stick with one friend. Liz Taylor was his best friend and even Liz couldnt keep track of micheal
@@anthonygordon9483 Michael called Donny shortly before he passed away. He told Donny he was in hiding. Donny invited Michael and his children to stay at his house. Michael never took him up on it. There are videos on TH-cam of Donny telling the story.
Lotta people on here saying Barry Gordy and the Jackson 5 passed on one bad apple. Maybe they did but the number one hit song by The Osmond Brothers, One Bad Apple, wasn’t just an average song, it was a tour de force musical creation recorded in Muscle Shoals at FAME Studios by legendary producer Rick Hall and the swampers. A genius pop confection in its own right.
Most of Americans didn’t tune in to see the Osmonds. But most tuned in to see the Jackson 5. Michael won a Grammy for the song “Ben” and he was still in the group with the same writers.
@janasaastad3612 : The Osmonds was a flash in the pants with one hit single. Stop trying to revised that time period. So typical of your type......BORN HATERS.
The Donny & Marie Show was a huge hit TV Show. So was the Osmonds Cartoon,Donny's run as Joseph and the Amazing Technical Color Dream Coat, Donny&Marie's Los Vegas residency and now Donny's.
Michael never mentioned about Donny Osmond in any of his interviews when he got into being the greatest entertainer.......oh they still had communicated ?
Michael called Donny when he was in trouble, and Donny said, "Please come here to my home, with the kids". Michael said he would go, but sadly didn't turn up.
When it came to dance moves j5 got it when it came to entertainment the Osmonds got it only thing was different was Donny voice got deep couldn't hit those notes Michael voices change but can hit those notes Michael kept revolving as a teenager 74 dancing machine went to cbs they revolve as the Jackson Osmonds Donny and Marie show was good but it kill off the Osmonds brother s as a group starting out Osmonds brothers they was killing it in the70s then disco came in hurt there style of music but the Jacksons took over the charts this wasin77 78 all the way into the 80s
Donny really came into his own with Joseph. Andrew Lloyd Webber asked Donny where he had been hiding that voice and took him on for the first video of the show. Close Every Door is stellar. Plus, he looks stunning in a loin cloth! He did 6 years of the role! You had to see him live to really appreciate the strength of his voice. That's me with Donny in my picture, at a UK convention. He asked if he could join me singing in the talent contest!
Body language is *_everything!_* Michael, barely looks at Donny. While Donny, is fixed on Mike. 😂 Beyond that... One went onto to be one of the T3, greatest popular music, global phenom ( Elvis Presley & The Beatles being the other two ). & one of the greatest pop songwriters. & the greatest, pop dancer / showman / singer. The other went out of fashion, by the time disco blew up 1978.
@@johnpacino007 Donny and Marie also had success in Broadway musicals, Las Vegas and Branson. Best of all, they stayed close to their family, which gave them the stability that Jackson clearly never had.
I don’t agree, they were on parr at that time, but both carried on to be brilliant performers in their own right. It would be boring to have identical artists like some performers today.
and yet MJ is still more relevant than donnie ever was despite his passing. the fact that you had to bring up someone’s death to bring up someone else is odd.
@@madkap2428 i’m not triggered, just find it weird how you’re using his death to prove something but Michael still outsells and outstreams donnie from the grave 😊 just like old times
@@madkap2428 MJ did live to see it though lol. Donnie will die one day knowing he never reached MJ’s level of success so the drag isn’t really dragging
They were very best friends for real Donny cried during an interview about Michael Jackson
Donny styed in-touch with Michael a lot after MJ became a mega star

Very Very nostalgia. Love both
I ❤ appreciate respect both of these talented people. RIP MJ ❤ and missed around the globe.
I had crushes on both as a kid. I wore out my copies of Yo-Yo and Ben!

Donny was born Dec. 9. 1957-- Michael was born Aug. 29. 1958- close enough, their moms did share a birthday, not sure about ages
Their mother's had the same birthday as well.
If anybody could understand Michael as a child it would be Donny ❤ they are both absolute magic
Yes, they were good friends
Indeed
These two are awesome
Fabulous music with wonderful memories when children were allowed to be children.
Both had Saturday morning cartoons. Both added their sisters to their acts.
Osmonds only have one sister while the Jackson’s have 3

The good ole days when you had so much hair you couldn't even see you ears. You could be missing an ear and no one would know.

They were both great...but Michael exploded in the 80's. With great writers for his music.
Bs it was more then great writers MJ was a great performer and his style was incredible
Michael Jackson is in the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Oyes 9 of his 13 number 1s were written by him(m.j.)

The song "Ben" was written for Donny but he was out on tour so they got Michael to do it.

Osmonds were a rip off of the Jackson 5.
The Osmonds will always be a one hit wonder group in my book with One Bad Apple.... That's about the size of it 😮.
Puppy looks very, yo yo they had a cpl more nothing like the Jackson’s though
Your book is a big misprint lol
After One Bad Apple....Double Lovin', YoYo, Down By the Lazy River, Crazy Horses, and many other hits.
What a rip off lol
No contest. One is a wholesome, sane, religious family man. The other, was none of those things.
The pink hat was a red flag.
Clearly Michael was better
There's no comparison. Donny was trying really hard to steal the stage. He failed miserably.
There is no one equal to Michael Jackson there was a lot of groups but not one compared to the jacksons
I thought Michael was white.
Then you know nothing about Michael Jackson
