This is why so many of us were distraught by his death. I was 10 at the time of this performance, and he'd been in our lives forever providing exceptional music and joy. R.I.P. Michael... we miss you!
The world mourned so much because his music evoked memories in *ALL* generations. Literally everyone in 80s was a fan and so, a lot of memories come with his music. The entire world stopped it was insane.
I was 7 when he died in 2009 and let me tell you - I’ve never ever ( before or after ) cried for anyone who died like I cried for Michael Jackson! Much love from Germany! We all miss him very deeply.🙏🏼
Y’all opened up Pandora’s box you two definitely need to go Era by Era when it comes to MJ’s performance evolution etc. he’s truly THE KING OF MUSIC! A true child prodigy just unfortunate he had no real childhood.👑🌟💯(MJ is Thee Most Known Human Being To Ever Live other than Jesus Christ tbh Ali ain’t even more known than Hitler respectfully.)
Funny Enough Who Lovin You is Smokey Robinson song, but people forget, so every time he performs, it they say i didn't know you sing Michael Jackson song.
@Ruebz_f30 why u think theyre all so perfect and well choreographed n sound like a studio recording at 10 yrs old? Why u think they call him "joseph" and not dad? He beat them till they got it perfect then made them perform and use the money to get outta Gary
Michael is the youngest in the group, he was 10 years old. The 2nd youngest is Marlon Jackson, the other little guy, he was 11 years old. The guy on the end playing the guitar and singing is Jermaine Jackson, he was 14 years old, the guy on the other end with the guitar is Tito Jackson, he was 16 years old, and the tall guy in the middle is Jackie Jackson, he is the oldest in the group, he was 18 years old.
I still believe that the Jackson Five was underrated as a band. In these early songs you see how well the entire group performs. My favorite Jackson Five song is Maybe Tomorrow.
I was just speaking on that not too long ago....he gave them so much pressure that I believe that's why he was such a perfectionist at what he did and always had to be perfect which is why we ended up getting Off The Wall and so on.
@@TerranceEdwards-mj5zq Do you actually realise the extent of his controlling behaviour over not just MJ but all of them growing up ? I would rather MJ would have actually had a happy childhood without all that and if he would have made it with his brothers to become famous great and in turn turn out without the psychological bull their father inflicted on them. But otherwise no, I don't think anyone should be grateful for that at any cost to the person/ people involved.
this is what I grew up with. Michael Jackson was exactly 2 weeks older than me. His birthday is August 29th 1958 and mine is September 12th 1958. It was amazing to me growing up knowing he was my age and was so talented.
@@c.macnificent8850Yeap Especially Being from Gary Indiana In those Times Joe Was Doing his Best to keep em all off the Streets Even tho he May Have Been To Strict
I have tears because I remember, from the beginning when they were performing in talent shows. Yes, am that old (same age as Marlon), saw them at MANY concerts, heard them; bought their first 45 (Big Boy). Who new?! Great days, great times. And remember..it was ALL of them!
Peak/Prime MJ is his wembley concert in 1988 (age 30) but you both have to go on an MJ journey! In my opinion his most impressive song vocally as a kid was "A Fool For You"
I saw MJ in concert the first time at 4 years old (and then many more times after that; even flew home to L.A. from college in Tennessee TWICE to see him). And THEN, I got to spend 5 days at Neverland (and see him be a regular dad in 2002). I'm a writer, so I've written it all down. Let me know if you want to read it.
I’ve been to three of his concerts. One was The Jackson’s Victory tour with all of the brothers and Michael. And two of his solo tours. Bad and Dangerous. And it’s impossible to describe to you how it was to be there. It was electric. It was alive! It was unmatched by any concerts I’ve ever been to before or after. And yes a lot of girls and guts passed out. He will forever remain not only my first crush but my favorite artist ever. There is and will never be another Michael Jackson.
music of today is too samey. still some top songs etc but mj doing a moonwalk even during dangerous was like, mad insane, because there was no reference to go look it up. You could go to a library or hope a concert would be on tv or on video, nowadays we have access to literally everything and everyone. I cannot stress how alien-like a moonwalk seemed in the 80s, in the uk we had 4 tv channels,bbc1,bb2,itv.ch4. only people with money could afford a vhs tape recorder. mj seemed other worldly!
A little more of the back story, I was a couple years younger than Michael, this was in 1969 and we had just come out of a *TERRIBLE* political decade with the assassination of a president, JFK’s brother, Malcolm X, Dr. King and we were still struggling through really bad racial strife. Then came the Jackson 5!! They brought a lot of joy, fun, good vibes, dancing and wonderful energy to a tired nation! They were also the first black teen idols! *EVERYONE* LOOOOVED the Jackson 5!! I think they really helped bring the country together in their own way! :) To debut on the nationally famous Ed Sullivan Show and then rattle off *YEARS* of #1 hits in the 70s, and then for Michael to become *MICHAEL* in the 80s was a really interesting period.
Michael was the youngest of the group. The other little one is Marlon who was about a year older than Michael. In total there were 9 Jackson children, Michael was the 7th of the 9 and they had another brother named Randy who was 3 years younger than Michael who would join group a few short years later. And Janet Jackson was the baby of the family.
I saw them in concert for the first time after ten years of watching them perform on television variety shows on May 4th 1979 at the Sunrise Musical Theatre in Sunshine FL. I was in the USAF stationed about forty miles from the venue. I went early to hopefully catch them doing a sound check, but that didn’t happen but l was able to be in the back of the theater when they arrived. It was me, them and the limousine driver. This was before smart phones so l wasn’t able to get a picture and l didn’t have an autograph book, so all l am left with is the memories.
Michael Jackson was my first celebrity crush. I was blessed to see the Jackson 5 perform live in 1974 &1975 at the Circle Star theater in San Carlos CA.
Katherine and her mother knew from the beginning. Joe Jackson taught them to perform, but Michael was too bashfulto sing in front of his father. He felt left out and just wanted to be with his brothers. Katherine and her mother urged Joe to give Michael a chance and the rest was history.
Those of us who grew up with J5 hate the way he went out but there was simply no other young talent like that.....ever. His album "Off the Wall " (to me) is still his best!
The Greatest child artist of all time, greatest entertainer of all time. no one can touch this dude, just something else. on a side note Stokely from mint edition kinda moves like lil Michael in that who's loving u bit, little observation there.lol
I am so glad l was able to see Michael Jackson and the Jackson Five from the start in 1969. The only kids in history who were able to watch themselves on their own Saturday morning cartoon.
This was great! The Jacksons are a seriously talented family! Don't sleep on Janet either! She's in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame alongside her brothers!
Michael was 11 years old in this performance. This Ed Sullivan performance was their debut which aired in December of 1969. Michael was born in August of 1958.
Hi from Germany 🙋♀(new Subscr.) Great reaction !! I am 65 y. old & I grew up with them. Later I`ve seen Michael twice in Germany ( Frankfurt & Hockenheim) I`ll never forget that !
Glad i came across this video. As a LIFER of an MJ fan….you guys feeling this….the Jackson 5 (J5) era, The Jacksons Era, The Off The Wall Era, The Thriller Era, The Bad Era, The Dangerous Era, The HIStory Era, The Invincible Era to his passing…. If u need specific suggestions, I’d gladly send some of other MJ fans will def point u in the right direction. Enjoy!!
You know how artists today have Hives? Like Taylor Swift has the "Swifties". Beyonce has the "Bey-Hive". Rihanna has the "Navy". MJ didn't have or need a hive because most of the humans on earth was his hive lol. They used to premiere his music videos on channels that didn't even play music. Thats how big he was.
y'all should react to Motown 25 from 1983 the Jackson 5 reunited after 8 years to perform these same songs plus MJ does a solo performance of billie jean afterwards. the billie jean performance is the reason why his thriller album is the best selling album in the world and 2nd best selling album in America
Go back and watch Motown at the Hollywood Palace hosted by Diana Ross about two months earlier where the Jackson Five debuted their first single ‘I Want You Back’.
Y’all should research a tad more about the Jacksons. Also, Michael was the youngest. He was a child prodigy and been singing since 5 years old. He had done sooo much more with music, film, humanitarianism, etc. He was a musical genius and phenomenon.
Don't you ever commit that blasphemy and say that Bruno Mars has any kind of resemblance or connection to someone like Michael Jackson's level please be not to be that😮 ignorant
The other "main" singer is Jermaine Jackson. He had a nice solo career when he sliit from the J5. I went to a J5 concert that included the 5 brothers plus Rand and Janet.
so you should really go ahead and check out early stuff this was the same year and the year after this video when Michael did a show called American bandstand.. I think he was on there like three times at this young age but it's quite interesting
I had no idea there were adults that havent heard these songs. My brother used to listen to who’s loving you when he broke up with his hs gf when i was a kid back in the 90s. These songs were in heavy rotation decades after they came out. I was born 20 years after abc was released and i still know every word
I had the pleasure of seeing MJ during the BAD tour. You two are right, if the video moved you, seeing him live…. Takes it to another level. You need to react to Forever Came Today from the Carol Burnette show. Amazing choreography!!!!
Great reaction!! Love to go through the MJ journey with you guys! I was blessed to see him live in Buenos Aires in 1993 on his Dangerous tour! I did not know who he was, but the moment he jumped into the stage I fall in love with him! To see him live, to feel his presence, his energy! There are no words to explain that feeling! Love MJ since that day and forever will! ❤
"Who is loving you" was and still is one of my favor songs, but couldn't understand why it didn't get as much play as the other songs. Not a lot of people are familiar with this song until now. My guess, it wasn't commercial enough.
I was 10 years old back in 1978 when the Jacksons performed on the island of Trinidad 🇹🇹.I had to beg my parents to take me to the show;that was the first concert i have ever been to.They were in my opinion one of the biggest performers to our island during the 1970s
He paid a heavy price. He didnt choose this career. He was a one-off.in 1987 i was 5 and 'santa' left mj bad album and a cassette tape player for it, and i remember that christmas crying because i didnt think id ever get to have a whole album of anyone. Il love it til i die. Even now when we drive past our childhood home, my mum gets a tear remembering me and my brother's reaction to having the surprise of the 'Bad' album, and trying to dance to 'the way you make me feel' and 'bad' and 'man in the mirro'r and 'smooth criminal' and the other ones!! great channel, lots of love to you both , youve given me a nice warm reminder of the man and our childhood XXX
Loved y'all's reaction. I grew up on the J5. Michael was 4 years older than me, so he was my childhood crush. And my sisters, cousins, and friends, even though we're all girls, would be the Jackson 5, dance moves and all 🙂. So much fun. Glad y'all liked them.
What you youngsters 4get to realize is without his brothers how far would he have really gotten. It took all of them to make the J5. Yep I saw them at this age on this show and went to all their concerts. Tito was my favorite. He was the lead guitarist, Jermaine who was the teen idol was the bass guitarist and 2nd lead singer. Inspire of what ppl say who don't really know Marlin was the best dancer known as the dancingest Jackson and jackie, the oldest was the one older women liked because of his looks. So deep dive into them it's quite a journey.
Before Motown they performed on the chitin circuit. They’d open for James brown, Motown acts, Jackie Wilson. Those shows sometimes required them to perform 5 shows a night. At the Apollo they performed 5 shows a day for 5 days. They were professionals
Jermaine also has several hits of his own. Back in 1980 him and Michael had the #1 & #2 song of the year, with Jermaine edging Michael for the top spot. His song "Let's get serious" was #1 for 6 weeks. Michael had "Rock with you." #1 for 6 as well.
MJ was just HIM his entire career
ong
Basically
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
Then here come these ppl: "He was him even after he touched this kids private part" Ngga what?
Not just MJ the whole Jackson’s 5 bro
He was already a superstar by this point. I’m sure everyone knew he was special.
This is why so many of us were distraught by his death. I was 10 at the time of this performance, and he'd been in our lives forever providing exceptional music and joy. R.I.P. Michael... we miss you!

Funny Enough Who Lovin You is Smokey Robinson song, but people forget, so every time he performs, it they say i didn't know you sing Michael Jackson song.
Anytime Michael wasn’t singing, ninety percent of the time, it was more than likely Jermaine.
He’s the last of that caliber of entertainers that changed things…forever.
There will never be another.
Yes there will be
Many of us Michael's age have loved him for a very long time now. ❤ RIP
Yes Lynn! Preach! We grew up with him and when he passed away we were devastated! I know I was! Great comment! 😎❤️💕💛💙🩵🤍🧡💜🤎🩶💚🩷
The fact that if he even messed up 1 singular note he would’ve got beaten terribly. We miss you Michael and all ur hard work❤
How’s that a fact?
It’s true 💔
It's been well documented that Joe Jackson beat the boys from a young age if they were out of step or off tone@@Ruebz_f30

I still believe that the Jackson Five was underrated as a band. In these early songs you see how well the entire group performs. My favorite Jackson Five song is Maybe Tomorrow.
The ages of the Jackson Five when that show was aired on 12/14/69; Michael 11. Marlon 12, Jermaine 15, Tito 16, Jackie 18.
No Singer/Dancer/Performer before, during and after his reign has come close to Michael Jackson. He will always be the King of Pop.
But one of the comments says Marlon was the better dancer lol
Abbriscoe! I agree with you! Name one! Michael Jackson’s songs are selling even more now since he left us! RIP! ❤Great comment! 😎👍🏽⭐️👍🏽❤️💕
Child prodigy that grew into adult genius. An exceptional human being, kissed by God.
Their father FORCED them to be perfect. It wasn't easy for them growing up.😔
Their father was an example of how not to be a good father and leave lingering resentment in them from just children.
I was just speaking on that not too long ago....he gave them so much pressure that I believe that's why he was such a perfectionist at what he did and always had to be perfect which is why we ended up getting Off The Wall and so on.

He forced them but I'm grateful that he did if it wasn't for joe we probably wouldn't ever heard of mj

Up until Randy joined the group
I mean Michael was performing since the age of 5, think about it, by that time he was already great, he HAD to
MJ is a protegy. There are clips of him as early as 5 years old. 🔥

Totally agree. I went to Bad and Dangerous. It was like being in the presence of a miracle in man form.
THIS is why I laugh when Drake fans compare him to MJ🤣
I mean Drake compares himself to him in his songs and that’s fucking hilarious 😂😂
#Blasphemy

You can't compare greatness with mediocrity.. Auto tune with raw talent🙄.What an insult.
So glad young people are still interested in REAL music 😉😉🙂🙂
A little more of the back story, I was a couple years younger than Michael, this was in 1969 and we had just come out of a *TERRIBLE* political decade with the assassination of a president, JFK’s brother, Malcolm X, Dr. King and we were still struggling through really bad racial strife. Then came the Jackson 5!! They brought a lot of joy, fun, good vibes, dancing and wonderful energy to a tired nation! They were also the first black teen idols! *EVERYONE* LOOOOVED the Jackson 5!!

MJ was the 2nd most famous behind Jesus
It reminds you of Bruno Mars because he got all of his inspiration from Motown (Jackson 5 et cetera), R&B, and soul performers.
Barry Gordy didn't want to sign them because he Already had little Stevie Wonder
I am surprised that generations after mine love Michael Jackson as much as we did.
Michael Jackson was my first celebrity crush. I was blessed to see the Jackson 5 perform live in 1974 &1975 at the Circle Star theater in San Carlos CA.
Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon, and Michael!
Tito and Jermaine was playing the guitars.
Real talk! MJ was the man 😊
It's rare to hear a 10 yr old sing in key always amazes
Michael was the youngest that's Marlen he was a year Older The only ones younger than Michael was Randy and Janet
I really enjoyed that guys. You watching little MJ brought happy and sad tears to my eyes. He was truly a one off. Exceptional human being.

Yeah he could sing, but the pure Charisma Michael possessed still cannot be beat.
This was great! The Jacksons are a seriously talented family! Don't sleep on Janet either! She's in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame alongside her brothers!
M.J. was really 11, born in 1958- they thought he'd be "cuter" being 10, like it really mattered he had the talent

y'all should react to Motown 25 from 1983 the Jackson 5 reunited after 8 years to perform these same songs plus MJ does a solo performance of billie jean afterwards. the billie jean performance is the reason why his thriller album is the best selling album in the world and 2nd best selling album in America
Go back and watch Motown at the Hollywood Palace hosted by Diana Ross about two months earlier where the Jackson Five debuted their first single ‘I Want You Back’.

Don't you ever commit that blasphemy and say that Bruno Mars has any kind of resemblance or connection to someone like Michael Jackson's level please be not to be that😮 ignorant
react to the bad tour!! the best era of michael!
YES!
Michael was the youngest of the group. The one in the black is Marlon and he is either 1 or 2 years older than Michael.
The other "main" singer is Jermaine Jackson. He had a nice solo career when he sliit from the J5. I went to a J5 concert that included the 5 brothers plus Rand and Janet.
I can almost get there but he’s got a really high voice and I shot my voice cuz I love cobain lol
so you should really go ahead and check out early stuff this was the same year and the year after this video when Michael did a show called American bandstand.. I think he was on there like three times at this young age but it's quite interesting
First song Stand is a Sly and the Family Stone song..
Check out the cartoon series
I had no idea there were adults that havent heard these songs. My brother used to listen to who’s loving you when he broke up with his hs gf when i was a kid back in the 90s. These songs were in heavy rotation decades after they came out. I was born 20 years after abc was released and i still know every word
Back when music had soul.
And you actually had soul singers who sang beautifully with emotion.
And ur name is Paul Williams ❤I love it. He’s my favorite Temptation
I’m so lucky I got to watch him from this age all the way thru. ❤
please do not use Bruno mars and mj in the same sentence

Even now when we drive past our childhood home, my mum gets a tear remembering me and my brother's reaction to having the surprise of the 'Bad' album, and trying to dance to 'the way you make me feel' and 'bad' and 'man in the mirro'r and 'smooth criminal' and the other ones!! great channel, lots of love to you both , youve given me a nice warm reminder of the man and our childhood XXX
Beautiful story almost made me cry❤
@@lolitadoss8079 aww thanks lol
Loved y'all's reaction. I grew up on the J5. Michael was 4 years older than me, so he was my childhood crush. And my sisters, cousins, and friends, even though we're all girls, would be the Jackson 5, dance moves and all 🙂. So much fun. Glad y'all liked them.
What you youngsters 4get to realize is without his brothers how far would he have really gotten. It took all of them to make the J5. Yep I saw them at this age on this show and went to all their concerts. Tito was my favorite. He was the lead guitarist, Jermaine who was the teen idol was the bass guitarist and 2nd lead singer. Inspire of what ppl say who don't really know Marlin was the best dancer known as the dancingest Jackson and jackie, the oldest was the one older women liked because of his looks. So deep dive into them it's quite a journey.
#HAPPYJUNETEENTH!
Time Waits For No One is probably one of the most under rated Jacksons hit. Its off of the Triumph album in 1980 Michael was 21 or 22
Before Motown they performed on the chitin circuit. They’d open for James brown, Motown acts, Jackie Wilson. Those shows sometimes required them to perform 5 shows a night. At the Apollo they performed 5 shows a day for 5 days. They were professionals
Michael took Smokey Robinson 's song "Who's Lovin' You" to the stratosphere.
Jermaine also has several hits of his own. Back in 1980 him and Michael had the #1 & #2 song of the year, with Jermaine edging Michael for the top spot. His song "Let's get serious" was #1 for 6 weeks. Michael had "Rock with you." #1 for 6 as well.
This was on the R&B charts, to be clear.
