Jackson Five Interview (1973) - Part 1

[Spargold1]

All I can say, is that their talking voices sound so sexy!!!

[scarletngold]

I can tell that a lot of you don't know much about old school black folks.

[KSitz77]

Great interview even if they all shaved 2 years off of their ages, LOL.

[MrsMJLoveAlways]

Aww Michael & Randy's voices are adorable

[jonb3917]

When the DJ asked "what would you be if you weren't music stars"? Michael says "star track". Did he mean "track star" or he wanted to be on "star trek" lol. I really have no clue, it's pretty funny

[x713HTX713x]

I sound like, HER?

[mjluver1231]

jackie sound just like michael when h was older. and randy sound just like michael as a kid

[licmiklit]

"startrack" LMFAOOO i love Michael

[ProudtobeaCanuck]

I don't think he liked it when the interviewer said he sounded like Diana Ross b/c he's saying he sounds like a girl that's why he was like "I sound like her?" anyway I thought it was funny when he talked about school "she read a book to us its about a bridge" lmao.

[LittleLJ22]

Uh I sound like her....? ahahaha <3

[tuukee317]

Michael is only a 1 year younger than Marlon, so he's really like 15 plus he was born in 1958 and that was 1973... what the heck is going on how is he 13?

But oh well. hahaha I love the part 6:05-6:06 where Michael says "nuh un.. naw"

[MiamiPush2theLimit]

@tuukee317 Motown always lied about Michael's age and made him lie too...

[gothamjediknight]

The were the first family group, and the last. There will never be another J5.

[duridog]

Am i the only one that noticed that wen he asked how old they were michael spoke twice. After Tito said he wuz 19 he said 10 to 22. Then he said mike im 13. Michael is 2 silly♥

[CieloSmooth]

@duridog

Mike was saying that Jackie was "a tender 22."

[duridog]

@CieloSmooth oh I thought he said 10 to 22 as in the age range is from 10 to 22 lol. He still silly though lol♥

[FillionDollarSmile]

Michael is so Cute.. Just the way he says things.. and his Accent :O ! ! !

"She read a book to us...... Its about a Bridge!" Lmao.. Sounds like he was concertrating on the Details :P !

[Cutesweetyuna]

LMFAO Startrek

[TheRealAshland]

They never would have though lil Janet would go from beating up on Randy and stealing Micheal's mic to being the 2nd star.

[3TAforever]

jackie sounds like superfly lol

[3TAforever]

@3TAforever not superfly he sounds like the Mack

[musicbabylove1]

Micheal didn't find that Diana Ross comparison funny at all..it's a bit rude you know cuz he's a boy..saying he sounds like a girl is not nice. I notice the brothers all found it funny..

[bebreezy93]

@musicbabylove1

Yeah, they laughed...Mike's voice was kind like "uhhhhh, what?" hahaha

I love when he says "I sound like her???" hahhha!

[anywayzz]

i heard a lot of snickering like brothers do loll this is so cute

[eccentricdiamond49]

I love Michael's voice!!!!! He sounded very mature for a 15 year old. He was a smart guy.

[sketchley80]

3:10 "I sound like her?" - hahahaha!

Mikey sounds so sweet - as usual...why would people criticize him as his voice changed? Frustrates the FUCK outta me - really - uhhhhhh - he was always a beautiful soul!

[xXxLumesUpInFumesxXx]

OMG! Randy sounds so much like Michael when he was younger! It's freaky..

[ilolly577]

hahaha @ 3:37 when HE asked what they would be if they weren't in the J5, Michael says "Startrek"

[AleezaChocolat]

@ilolly577 You sure he didn't say something about running track? Because I know in a printed interview, he was asked the same question ("if you weren't a singer, what would you be doing?") and MJ answered that he'd be running track. *shrug*

[TheKyg13]

Michael sounds weird! Ahhhh what happened to his voice? Lol :D R.I.P

[MJ4lyph]

@TheKyg13 LOL what chu mean "weird"????

[TheKyg13]

@MJ4lyph His voice isn't high. Lol(:

[6StarGurl6]

lol it's about a bridge...

[thalizyist]

OMG THEY CAME TO NEW ZEALAND :O thats where i am!!!!!!!! its all the way at the bottom of the world hehe next to australia. faarr cant believe it.

[kellyjeanine00]

now mike caught in a lie him and marlon are a year apart he was 15 . ohh i wud have hated saying i was younger than i really was , but i wud have never lied for anyone

[stardreamgirl]

"I sound like her" XD

[jackson512255]

Randy sounds EXACTLY like Michael when Michael was Randy's age!!!

[paradais2]

Michael has a beautiful gentle voice. Don't you love the outfits at 7.15. thanks for sharing.

[supermjjfan1]

MJ is so young,huh. This is great.

[Gabriellehoney]

MJ: "we just read books, she read a book to us!... it was about a bridge?.. " Interviewer: "did they give you a test?" MJ: "Naw!"

[TheCatiesmith]

aww..this was in july...my babys birthday was rite around the corner!!! mike is too cute in this vid!!!

[IBeLovinTheJ5]

Yes, he is very sweet :) Especially the Diana Ross part haha.

TheCatiesmith, THANK YOU sooo much for your comments and support. Really.

[TheCatiesmith]

no pob!!!.....thks for postin the vids!!! seriously where do u get this stuff from?? its so rare!

[Lannielst]

Michael says he is 13 but in 1973 he would have at least been 14 going on 15?

[IBeLovinTheJ5]

They made him lie about his age. This interview was in July 1973, so he was 14, but he dropped one year since Motown made him.

[Pencilfood]

@Lannielst yea but when michael enter to the showbusiness he said his age 2 years younger becuse of the force of joseph

[wrldtvlr2]

I hear a camera snapping like crazy...I wish that I could see the photos!

[MJ4lyph]

I thought the osmonds were already out before the jackson 5??

[rocknroll773]

@MJ4lyph Where were you? Probably not born yet. Because the rest of the world knew that the Jackson 5 were the first young family group ever.

[MJ4lyph]

@rocknroll773 what r u talking about??

[MJ4lyph]

@rocknroll773 Oh wait nevermind....i know now!!... but thats what marie osmond said in on eof her interview on here...she was like "my brothers were famous before the J5" something like that... soooooo yea

[rocknroll773]

@MJ4lyph lol. Hi.

Oh wait nevermind....i know now!!... but thats what marie osmond said in on eof her interview

The J5 did come out first. The Osmonds (without Marie) were supposed to be like a White J5. But they were no where near as good, that's why they faded out just as quick as they came in.

[MJ4lyph]

@rocknroll773 LOL dont mock me..u know what i meant......but YAAAAAAAYYYY go J5!!!....did their dad beat them to???

[rocknroll773]

@MJ4lyph lol. Hi. Their dad was an old drunk. Sike! I don't remember seeing their mom and dad too much with them. Sometimes they were on t.v. as the Osmond family with all of them. Corny.

[cassball7]

I love the way they laugh when the interviewer tells Mike he sounds like Diana Ross!

They KNOW Mike had a crush on Ms. Diana!

Mike is so funny the book was about a bridge. I guess summer vacation had already taken a hold of him!!!

They seem so at ease.

[IBeLovinTheJ5]

Yeah, I think they did, because Randy generally lied about their ages. In the beginning, Marlon lied about his age too.

[alicecullenrox8]

You put my favorite interview back on!!!!!!! Yay for you!!!
