Big Boy - The Jackson 5

[wwefanatic662]

Everytime i listen to this song and i'll be there i shake my head.He was young but even then was so talented and ready for stardom.On top of that he only got better when he got the opportunity to write his own songs,such as amazing talent

[whippedcream100]

i'm dying to hear what this must have sounded like LIVE when they did it...everytime i hear one of Michael's songs, i melt. Then i hear it live. OH BOY....at any age, he had it! Unfortunately, i wasn't around then, and especially not to go to see them perform before the j5 was established, but because of my age, this i'll say...from this song right here, Big Boy, to THIS IS IT i've seen what he can do...i can only imagine being there when it all happened...

[FillionDollarSmile]

I read in Jermains book that before they became famous the Visited somewhere to do a Show and looked at the worn out carpet like "I wonder what Legends have wore down that Carpet".... 40 years on.... FUCK MICHAEL JACKSON STOOD HERE !!!

[bbyd0ll1]

Thumbs up if the book "Moonwalk" bought you here. :)

dopeness.

[medcom1991]

I just re-read the book (Moonwalk) written by Michael Jackson... and it gave me a strong desire to look for all those first songs by The Jacksons... Michael is not a human being, he's simply an angel... Screw whoever hates him... REST IN PEACE MICHAEL JACKSON

[whippedcream100]

@MrCHOCBROTHA get outta here!! that's amazing!!!

[whippedcream100]

When i listen to this song a wave of emotion sweeps over me. Actually whenever i listen to any of his songs, no matter how catchy or happy sounding there's still a hint of sadness. but overall, it's a feeling of triumph. Knowing he's up there with Jesus our lord and savior where there's no pain, no hurt, no sorrow. That beautiful soul, that beautiful voice....I can't wait to be called home as well. Thank you, Michael for inspiring me to make a change. Greatest ever. Beautiful song.

[ljloman1]

It's amazing that so many people have never heard of this song.

[pelleT514]

Type "Ranj Catch 22" if you wanna hear a cool song!

[manEstylez]

"mothergoose, ooh mothergoose.." He's just a baby, don't be mean to him Joe

[tsangpogorge]

whenever I hear this song and see baby MJ pics I feel like crying

[wodasa]

I hoppe you feel better now. Miss you!

[27andkickinit]

HBD KING to be sooooo young an talented was and is a blessing he was tooo cute in this video and that voice OMG so soulful

[80scouplerules]

It's not just that he had a great voice, but he KNEW how to sing. Just the right amount of vibrato and he never overdid his riffs. Christina Aguilera could take a few singing lessons from this little boy!

[unexplainableluv4mj]

i missed hearing this song so i had to come back and revisit <3

love u Michael <3

[1goldbaby]

WHAT A WONDERFUL CLASSIC VOICE i DO NOT LIKE ANYONE WHO EVEN TRY TO SING LIKE HIM COS THEY JUST CAN'T AND SHOULDN'T EVEN TRY

[luvtoy3026]

[vicious321]

I love this song!!!

[picilletado]

[BloodonDanceFloorMJ0]

Sometimes, it hurts to imagine he's still here. After all he's been through. You know.

[saveitforyourmama]

Great Job!

"Smooth vocals"

Wholesome (=

We need more of this today definitely.

[MrJohnsanders1]

Lord I remember singing this song as a kid this was there first real hit. I believe. RIP michael

[fremontirvingtonlow1]

Historians inform that this was recorded in 1967, and release originally in 1968..That might be why it has a more deep soulful strive to it..the time frame??

[fremontirvingtonlow1]

Personally, I believe this is the best soul-song ever provided by "Jackson 5". And amazing Its their first.... Its not that "they or him" fell-off, It's just this one ONLY does me in ! !

[5mjrocks]

love it love it love it xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (RIP THE KING OF POP MICHAEL JACKSON UR MUSIC WILL LIVE ON

[sketchley80]

Oh wow - I've never heard this - just found out about it after reading his autobiography Moonwalk - listen to our little guy - at like 8 or 9 years old?

Wow - amazing - and that dancing at Motown audition - brings a smile to my eyes...and tears...he gave us everything he had in his soul!

[ferrari360moduk]

[dulcerose16]

so many people cried when MJ died..especially black people allen iverson, ciara..and many more... i hear someone saying black people are so protective of michael..he's their hero..and they 're so proud him its like telling the whole world that they own mike..and hes one of us..i guess because everybody thinks they own mike..we all share our personal life with mike..and really..it was a sad day
