When I was little, I didn't know much. If I heard a high pitched cute voice on the radio, I instantly thought "Jackson 5". For years, I thought Michael Jackson & his brothers were singing this.
@NikeNikka808, for a young person you know your music! The J5 came up in 70 so they did music with bands and the NE came up in the 80s they did music with keyboards and drum machine! NE admire the J5 but they totally did there on sound! J5 and NE are two different acts in two different eras of music, both teens acts are pioneers, ahead of there time!
infact ppl the person that wrote this song maurice starr intended this to sound like jackson 5's abc because new edition was supposed to be the jackson 5 of the 80's
Jackson 5 NEVER did Candy Girl this is New Edition all the way.. The song was written by Maurice Starr who was also published the records for New Edition... you could have at least googled it.... this song means a lot to me which is why I know the facts :)
aye...new edition r british me finks.....so obviously not the jackson 5...ppl jus say its the jacksons even tho they know it aint...jus to piss off ppl...it works...hahaha...amuses me......reptillian shapeshifter spotted...original video 1:12
@BossLadyWhite shiiiiiiit, cant recreate that shit man, and this is hardly even a try! Jermaine and tito holding down those melodies so cleann while singing and dancing so sweet and MJ!!! Jermaine is a bass beasssst!
@DJnaggin I don't disagree....hence why I said "intended"-I am a DIE HARD J5 MJ fan...I actually also loved New Edition and still do to this day..but not because I thought they were J5...was just saying that was what M.Starr was trying to do...and yes,Jermaine is serious with the bas...no argument there bro!
love this song!!

The reason why people think this is the Jackson 5 other than the high-pitched vocals is the exact same chord progression as "ABC".

But when we got those XM radios, I looked at it and I wondered "Who's New Edition?". I love their music now, but the Jackson 5 is still my favorite.
