Michael was and always have been a dancing machine. His moves come so smooth and natural. I just LOVE watching him do his thing....it's call a God given talent....He has so many and he was sexy and good looking!
Indeed Michael has always been the best. Check out the J5 videos from 1970/71. He was always dynamite! Marlon was always trying to catch up with him. He wasn't bad but not nearly as good as Mike. Interview sources (by Mike himself) and other written sources say Mike was made an example for his brothers by the father because he was always the best and hardest working.
when they're dancing to "disco dom" i think Marlon was gonna out dance Michael 5:22 but Michael realized it and started dancing better in front of Marlon...that wasn't fair to Marlon but i still love them both.
I think it was all carefully choreographed (those skits/dance routines have to be), but Marlon turned out to be an awesome dancer. I love love the brief moment when he and Michael dance side by side!
@ 9:12 then they close in on Mikey's face, he looks so good! WoW!! his teeth are white and straight, and his innocent eyes! how cute.. and his skin looks soo good :) he is sucha cutie pie :D you just wanna give him a hug :)
I luv 2 c this "locking" skit with dom deluise. i've always enjoyed dom's work, but this is hilarious! and what can i say about marlon and michael...DAMN...they could dance. Poor poor TT, as micheal called him....lol. Tito was definitely not a dancer....lol.
I know. I know he did his best. But he can kill a guitar. I noticed Marlon did the best split, when they were doing their splits in a ripple. Michael messed up a little ( 7:22 ) but he was still the best dancer.
what is that song right after michael says gimme some skin and they start partyin? I really like it and I can never find the name for it when I hear it.
look at dom's platforms rofl n look at big behind tito missing step lol michael killin the moves took them from the hood n perfected them all yal dancers need 2 learn from him the king
the disco dom part is the coolest thing ive ever seen..i love watchin people dance. Michael is the man...its nice that he can live on through his videos and music.
Thanks! i listened to the original average white band version of "pick up the pieces" and i prefer the version on this show cuz it has more funk and soul. Know anywhere I can find the version that plays on this show?
I think Marlon and Michael inparticular can really dance their buts off. Alot of people only give Michael his propts for dancing but Marlon was right behind him gettin' down too.
this is so good. Michael and Marlon are great dancers. i love them and their whole family. and did you know that the son of Dom DeLuise is the dad in the Wizards of Waverley Place.
What's the name of the song that they were dancing to when Dom Deluise was with them? (Not "That's the way I like it...the other song."

Spadesz93 2 years ago
he hated it because they lost a lot of credibility after this.
The sales of their albums fell and the venues of their concert weren't full anymore.
And Michael who was a perfectionnist said that the show was botch and playing those comic things ruins their image.
But I really like their show.

All of the Jacksons were soo beautiful. They're family is actually a perfect example of America's obsession w/ "their" idea of physical beauty.
All of them went on to have plastic surgery, except for I believe Jackie & Tito, and I think Randy.
Even Janet had surgery. I mean they were all gorgeous just the way they were, especially LaToya - she shouldn't have changed a thing.
Don't even get me started on Michael :)
