- Oh boy! Would you look at this!! Now there can be no debate that Alan is the singer on this one. This is the best quality, sorry.
I do not own this video, nor do I take credit for it in any way. All I wish to do is share it with all the other Osmond fans.
The Osmonds should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Yes they should,it angers me that they have never been given the acclamation that they deserve here in the US, 💙🧡🖤💚💜
Absolutely! They never got the appreciation they should have. I’m so glad they ended up with their own theater, and even though they no longer tour, they are well loved.
Don’t be absurd.
You can tell this song was very reminiscing of the Beatles' style. The Osmonds were truly underrated. The more I discover their audio library, the more of a fan I become.
"underrated"?! They were SO famous especially in Britain but also in Usa!
@AccountantProOT That is what I was thinking.
Jay is playing a RINGO "set up" on his drums even.
Osmonds were never recognized for their genius, yes they were superstars, but their talents measured right up with THE BEST!
I had no idea that Alan was the lead on this song. I wasn’t an immediate fan of their concept album, “The Plan” but it has quickly grown on me. The song definitely has a Beatles influence to it and is quite quirky. The Osmonds never cease to amaze me - they are musical geniuses.
Yes, the first time I heard it I thought it sounded like "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite".
I didn't know who was singing either - but I knew not Merrill, so I crossed my fingers and asked Alan on the internet, and he answered and told me it was him!
Absolutely- if only everyone thought they were talented!
Alan's voice was much deeper than this. Looks dubbed to me.
@@lizsmith4186 He was using effects on his voice, if I'm not mistaken. I heard it might've even been a megaphone or something!
@@lizsmith4186 it is. You can tell that it’s clearly the track off the album and they’re lip-syncing to it. Not uncommon for TV appearances.
I've had this album for many years, and it's just now I learned Alan's singing. I thought, "Wow! I didn't know he could sound like the Beatles." So cool to see that you, the first comment I saw, feels the same.
This is such a good song.They are so super talented.
Encore merci Samantha pour cette vidéo. A regarder et écouter sans modération en 2024 comme en 1973. 51 ans et toujours pas une ride (sauf sur mon visage) ! Ce morceau est sur ma playlist depuis sa création en 1979 et n'est pas prêt d'en sortir.
I found a 2nd hand copy of this 45 sometime in the 90s and bought it without knowing anything about the song or the album it came from - hell I wasn't even really fond of the Osmonds either!
At the end of each year I make a list of my fave songs of the year, regardless of when they were released. Movie Man topped my 1996 list.
The Osmonds are awesome singers, movie man awesome song.Movie man ,God will judge everyone.
I'm in my 60's and have always admired the Osmonds...especially Donny of course, being a product of the 60's and 70's. I am enjoying learning more about the family's talent. They all are amazing!
My favorite song by the Osmonds, super underrated and weird
I love this song - one of my favorite Osmond videos. They are so talented and if people heard it today, it would probably be more popular than it was in the 70's.
WOW…. I have no idea that Alan was the lead on this song, great song, great video as always, Osmond Brothers five always and forever 💙🧡🖤💚💜
Merci Samantha pour cette vidéo. A regarder et écouter sans modération en 2023 comme en 1973.50 ans et pas une ride (sauf sur mon visage) !
I can never get enough of this video. I can’t stop watching it.
Великолепная песня! Мне 64 и эта песня возвращает меня в мою юность...
This is brilliant! I love their white costumes and happiness. I wish bands like this would come back in style again. 💥
Me too
Thank you, I don't recall ever seeing this. The Plan is a beautiful album with so many messages and styles of music. For years I thought Let me in was just a love song, but one day it just hit me that it is more a song of repentance and realisation that we really do need spiritual guidance as we can make so many mistakes going on in our own 'sweet' way. As for Movie Man, it shows we have to be accountable for our actions. Great songs
Yes - the Plan has many great messages on it. I think that "Let Me In" is probably the most relatable song ever written, and the fact that it's just so wonderful to listen to makes it even better.
@@osarecool I can't argue with that!
I would've SWORN Merrill sang lead on this song! This video blew me away with a new revelation! The Osmonds, and The Plan are true G.O.A.T.S!!!
Who knew Alan sang this? Have thought this was Merrill for the last 50 years.
Amazing to see them actually singing it.
It looks good to me!! LOVE it!! Thank you for posting it!! I LOVE that song!!
I cant believe it. I loved this song back in the day, never thought i would see a video for it. I was 10 when they did this.
I did not know that Alan took the lead in this song. Always loved 🥰 this quirky, slightly demonic song about life and death. Great job for all the In this one. ! 👍😃👍
It's about judgement day when we must account before God, our lives displayed for all to see like on a movie screen.
It was a different type of song but I love it
I loved it, thank you for sharing friend😊
When I first heard this i thought it was Alan and then I changed my mind again and again glad there's finally proof
Wow! I had never seen this! Thanks for sharing! I love the Osmonds! 🥰
You're welcome! Glad yer enjoying!
wow! great song😻🤩🤩🤩
Number 1 in france 1973 the osmonds are legends they lasted longer than bay city Rollers
The Osmonds where awesome!
I remember that from way back when! 👏🏼👏🏼
Great performance
Never seen this video before the song is giving me Beatles Sergeant pepper vibes😊
This a pretty cool rare video. I do have this song on my phone. Thank you for posting.
This is the first time I have ever seen Alan singing lead. Sounds good to me.
The Plan has always been my favorite Osmond album.
Oh mine too!!!!💙🧡🖤💚💜
That was so cool to see! Wherever did you find it??? Thank you for posting it! It was nice to hear Alan as the lead.
You're very welcome!! I found it on a Russian site called ok.ru. No - I'm not Russian!😄
@@osarecool found going home from the same TV show
@@allyouneedislunch6738 Wow, cool! You put it up? I think the TH-cam channel Osmondheaven had it up once - but not anymore.
@@osarecool I just found it on a dvd I made
@@osarecool I have put it up now do you know what tv show it came from
Muy buena canción y fuera de lo común,aunque sí tiene cierto toque Beatle.🤗🤗🤗
Thanks for this, Samantha!
so do I. Nearly 64 too. love from France 💜🇨🇵
Glad to see proof Alan sings this! (Most people think it's Merrill!) What is Wayne playing at 1:07 and 2:00? They sure are cuties 😍!
Hmm, I have no idea! Certainly is an interesting sound though.
Seams a Kazoo
It's a penny whistle!
Love it!
This is a really clever song.
This song was released as a single in some countries. I have the 45.
THAT IS SO VERY AMAZING GUYS KEEP ON DANCING 🕺 😀 ,HOW ARE YOU DOING?
I airways thought this song sounded like the Beatles 😊❤️
I'd read it was Alan but was sure it was Merrill. It's that high bit 'take the stand' - that sounds like Merrill! Love this track.
Happy birthday Alan me sorry me just don't know what you are wonderful at you sing songs like that guys handsome honey Happy birthday to you Alan I love you so much guys so very nice to me guys
wow i always thought it was merrill singing. alan sounds a lot like him here. cool surprise. its obvious donnys voice is still changing cause he doesnt sing on thisvalbummat all. good job.
Donny stopped singing lead on Osmond albums when he began releasing solo albums. They wanted a clear separation. Nothing to do with his voice changing as Donny's newly recorded single "The Twelfth Of Never" was released at this same time.
1:09 I never realized until today that Alan sang lead on this song.
Единственная песня "The Osmonds", которая ещё тогда понравилась, и нравится до сих пор.
Alan was sounding like George Harrison of the Beatles
Thank you so much for sharing this! This is one of my favorite songs ever! Do you know what the instrument is that Wayne is playing?
Which instrument did you mean? He picks up quite a few lil' gizmos.
Sounds like a kazoo and a slide whistle.
ELECTRONIC LEAD GUITAR
THE OSMONDS FOREVER!👍❤🎶
Incredible singers. It’s an interesting thought that Allan Osmond could have taken Peter Gabriel’s place in Genesis, or became the lead singer of Aphrodites Child on the 666 album. That would have been an incredibly interesting experiment. 💥
You guys should know that jay wasn’t singing the movie man it was Alan I was shocked that it was Alan singing the movie man.
They like the Beatles that sound
Happy New Year
Happy New Year!!🎉🎉
Is this from "The Plan"? Is it their own written song?
Yes, it is from the Plan and they wrote it!
Where did you get this video?
I found it on a Russian TH-cam/Facebook type site called ok.ru.
Alan`s vocal sounds very similar to Merrill`s if you listen to other tracks on The Plan.
👏👏👏💐💐💐
Samantha - What I Like ... Thank you for sharing this! Being a religious album, do you know the message of this song? Maybe about the Judgement Day?
Let's see,I'll describe it best I can, Alan of course can do it better.
It's about what you do on earth. Do you think your actions here do not have consequences? "Why did you do it?" Why did you sin?
"You laugh and you smile, try to run away, don't you know what you do you might regret one day? There is one who has eyes on your evil ways, the Movie Man." -God. God is watching at all times.
"Even what you're thinking, everyone will know. That's the day you'll have to take the stand..." God knows everything you think and do, one day it will all be revealed. Will you be able to account for all your sins?
"Don't take it too easy" - Don't relax or become to at ease. You could go, well this one little lie won't hurt....
"Please don't let me see you cry, let me say I'm sorry." Don't let Jesus weep for another lost soul. That's about repenting and saying sorry.
---
And that's what I think it means...
@@osarecool Thank you so much for explaining the meaning of the song.
@@childsweethearts You're very welcome😊
@@osarecool Thank you- Is that from an article about "The Plan" album? I would like to read it.
@@romelovesdan No, it is not an article, I just wrote it myself, ha!
WOW... DID Allan really sing lead on this tune????
Yep!
No picture, but love the music.
Really? I wonder why?!
Question: Isn’t this the only song Alan sings lead on? I personally don’t love the album this comes from ❤️👍🤟🤙
He also sings lead on "What Could it Be."
I never see this
THAT IS SO AMAZING PICTURE 📸, YOU SOUND SO AMAZING ALAN R OSMOND NICKNAME LEADER ❤ ,SEXY BEAR 🐻 🐻❄ MERRILL OSMOND FRIENDS ALWAYS ALWAYS
Doesn’t sound like the Osmond’s
Oh it's undoubtedly the Osmonds. Go listen to "The Plan" album!
@@osarecool I’m not doubting you i find it fascinating
@@Purplesox Ok!
Jacksons were superior
There's no competition. Although, your opinion is quite incorrect.
Who are "Jacksons" ?
I hated this song, I loved the Osmonds but this song was not their style at all, and I thought it was terrible and I still think so.
Aw, they wrote it! I respect it, and I think it has a good message.
One of their best songs. Sound so much like the Beatles.
Like all the songs on the plan, there's a story behind it!
@@pmc8119 I love songs with a story behind, IF the song is beautiful with a nice melody...
