[MrBadgirl25]

Blues away baby

[eddiematrix1]

[NeeCee48204]

This is the THE JAM. It is soooo wonderful. I love this song so much. MJ's vocals were beautiful. I love the Jacksons.

[julia71127]

one of my favorite jacksons songs and still sounds great

[mybluesaway1]

This song was a tease of what was still yet to come from that amazing young man. Genius

[hittmansin7]

This is one of my favorite songs on the Jacksons album. I was only 3 when it came out. This album was my introduction to The Jacksons and so it holds a very dear place in my heart! Gamble & Huff was not a bad route to go after leaving the Motown machine. Only the real Jackson fans know about these joints.

[mcallen8204]

We're listening to HISTORY! This is, perhaps, the FIRST time "BEATBOXING" was ever heard on record. 1976, 3 years before Rappers Delight! Listen at 2:19. It's well documented that MJ beatboxed his songs at the demo phase. He probably included it here as an extra flair. The man was more innovative that ANY artist. Period.

[mzpenny123]

DON'T FOR ANY OF THEM I HAVE EVERY ALBUM THE JACKSONS EVER MADE AND EVEYONE MICHAEL HAS MADE ALL THE POSTERS DOLLS PEPSI CANS AND ALL MY CONCERT TICKETS

[pooky63]

Okay but, Don't forget"Thats what you get for being polite" "TRIUMPH" Give it up" and Everybody" "GOI'N PLACES" "Got to find me a girl" VICTORY" " Give me one more chance"

[tuukee317]

got this on my ipod. everyone calls me weird, but who cares!!! hahaha

[taylor4660]

@tuukee317 great song

[boowonder888]

fantastic sweet seventies sound! yeah, ""good times"" is very good too...

Younger Mj fans should look up the Jacksons'' music and they will discover a whole new world of fantastic music. It will make them feel better about what happened..

[djames17101]

I would add to kristineurie44's list,...good times, that's what you get (for being polite), this place hotel, one day in your life, destiny, and blame it on the boogie.He also had many others as a solo ,like carousel (the song that didn't make it on thriller}

cheaters, someone put your hand out, and more .If you love Michael you have to look these songs up.They will take you to another level of fandom. R.I.P.

[djames17101]

Actually Tito wrote this one

[djames17101]

Actually Tito wrote this one.

[mjjcng8958]

gamble and huuff. this is when they were on philly international records

[Aussiegypo]

I juat love listening to the awesome music and vocals he gave us...brings back memories for me....i was the odd one out at school because i was a crazed MJ fan...

[staceyjamie]

[strawberry5889]

[DanJackson09]

MJ is the king

[Giovanni0033]

[MrLynford]

jus cos i like it!

[nsjebictb]

MJ is your FLESH & BLOOD brother !!!

.

Don`t spread cruel and untrue comments to ruin MJ.

[housebanks22]

this song sounds alot like "the girl is mine".it's written and arranged in that same style.

[JordinSparksFan08]

no matta watcha say watcha sayyyy lol

[dangerousblablao]

this is the 1st published song, that was written by the genius of Michael Jackson.

[blackdougla]

blackdougla@kristineeurie44

I am a couple years your senior and these songs are STILL waayyy before my time too lol!!.However,it's could to run into another youngster who can appreciate and love REAL music,especially from one of the greatest groups and entertainers to ever create music.Might I suggest u look up more of MJ's unreleased music pooping up right here on youtube.And u can check out tracks from the Jacksons 1973 album,Skywriter as well.

[blackdougla]

I absolutely agree 10 TIMES OVER with kristineurie on that comment.They are indeed 5 of the greatest gems from the Jacksons that are largely overlooked and I love them all.Miss kristineurie u are a TRUE fan.Much respect to u

[kristineurie44]

@blackdougla thank you. and the funny thing is im only 15 and all of these songs are way before my time.

[philiptwood]

I got this LP in my stax... When I first heard this song, it reminded me of "Good Times" the tv show becuase it has that type of style to it. I'm 33 but I still remember watching as a kid.

[yosraz1]

RIP MJ

[pooky63]

It doesen't get any better than this this was the begining of Michael's true solo potencial just listen to the words and the vocal arraingment it'all him and his brothers doing background....Then Listen to "Give it up" on The TRIUMPH LP you'll see what I'm talking about a Music icon and Genius I miss him but was glad to had experinced history being made.....

[The2300jacksonstreet]

I grew up singing this song. Boy I used to love this song.

[laporshaw18]

r.i.p angel

[beasy1234]

Who else can say the very first song they wrote that made a album was a classic.

[sonnys1stgirl]

OMG this song takes me back! I use to listen to this song all the time not many of mjs young fans know this song only the true and longtime fans know this. I use to think mj was singing to me and i played it over and over again on my record player! Man i miss him so much just wish that he was still here! Ive been so effected by his passing

[ilovemusicalot07]

relaxing kinda lik e reminds ya of da old days or da good times or days even if you werent dere

[RazaqIshola]

Love this song. Love that photo too. * 5 Stars*.

[laffy]

this song is poppin

[aphrospice]

Hey, you can hear some of Michael's early beatboxing in this track. Also, this is the most underrated album of The Jacksons. Every track is sublime.

[MickSgrill]

Nice song

[Reddbonethick]

This was one of my favorite songs... this is so great. Thanks for the memory.

[mrsszmanda07]

I love this song nearly as much as I love Michael

[FireOnlineRadio]

Love this song, it was the first he wrote but he ended up feeling it had too many flaws in it and so did not sing it after a time. that's what he said in moonwalker. But tell me if this is not classic Rare done correct.

[mcalis1980]

Great song and one of the first songs Michael had ever written!

[skblue21]

Blues Away, best memories of my teenage years, i bought this single, on the B side of 'show you the way to go'  if i remember rightly. lovely little tune, thanks Michael.

[basquait1]

This is a serious steppin' track...but Huff and Gamble were the masters of classic soul!

[girraud]

Wow. I remember this song. I often sang it in my head and never knew the name. I knew which album it was fun, but never took time to pursue listening to it again. Just stumbled upon it today. Of course, I teared up. RIP MJ.

[girraud]

Sorry for the typo in the third sentence. I meant to say, "I knew which album it was on".

Thanks,

[jayreal66]

man i'm really feeling this track i never heard it until today and i love MJ never really follwed the group but i'll have all of their albums too. R.I.P. MJ gone too soon

[gittahfiend]

the girl is mine,the dogone girl is mine.

[fede4real]

mJ is just awesome most times he's singing a semitone under the right tone but just sounds Awesome.This is Mj wriitng this,it reminds me The girl is mind.The contratempo beat is sick you just gotta move

[Jacksons1929thru1966]

Only you, Mikey, can chase these blues, that race through my veins like streams of sorrow, away. Love you. You are still alive in my heart.... Long live the Jacksons! I hope you're happy Mikey! I wish you peace of mind. You've finally escaped the tabloids.....

Future children, you have my undying sympathy. I'm soprry you missed the greatest decades in the history of Life itself. Look for him in the starlit nights, he's watching over you with love.

[ColtraneAndRain]

that was beautiful, and my sentiments exactly! RIP Michael! <3

[Loretta77]

Big tune!!!!!!!!!!! Love it, RIP MJ. Sending all my love to your family.

[2base]

[jayeevee]

hey MD I lived in totty for 5 yrs - just off west Green Rd

[jayeevee]

minor health problems - goodness me, you are an optimist. He may be planning a tour but since he can hardly walk five feet I'll be surprised if he moonwalks across the stage. Even Stevie Wonder could see that the guy is a) ill and b) fruitloop

[mdl11225]

I only go by what HE tells me :-))

[killabrit]

ur an idiot!

[jayeevee]

fantastic - what happenend Michael?

[carrington45]

He went crazy!

[mdl11225]

Living in Bel Air California, has some minor health problems other than that he is fine and planning a tour in London this year at the O2 arena

[missNSK]

I cant believe MJ is having his last concert this july ... Im ganna cry :(

And then to do it thusands of miles away from me in london is so unfair :( *tear*

[missNSK]

[BADPYTluvsMJ]

Wow, love this song!!

[theMJgal]

This is from their 1976 "The Jacksons" album. It's so sexy, Michael's early prove of being a talented songwriter. Love how he sings here, this is one of my favorites on this album. I wish he still sung this.

[aimeedus]

good lookin out.I changed it thanxs

[theMJgal]

No problem :)
