I love this songs where Mj was in transition from the J5 sound starting to find his own trademark vocals.In tracks like this or "just a little bit of you","take me back" you can see the future groundbraking singer in Thriller
life... the words mean so much ....just one more step ...no matter how hard the task may seem ...dont give up ours dreams.....cause were alomost der...just one more step....rip mj
I FREAKIN ADORE THIS SONG...YALL CAN SAY WHAT YALL WANT CUZ I REALLY DONT CARE .... MICHAEL JACKSON IS UNTOUCABLE...JUST SICK WIT IT...NOW THIS IS MUSIC...
@paul42480 This is NOT a Jackson 5 song. And his named is spelled MICHAEL. I bet you're one of those people who became "fans" after he died. Ignorant.
@hughesjr Mj worked with the best songwriters producers his early days.His work in Philly is also underated but they did great records with that sound too.
Michael and I are the same age. I mean we were both born in 1958. I was born in Gary, In too. Like everyone born and raised in G.I. Who had the priviledge to see them grow up and become world wide phenoms. We are forever proud that Michael and family began in Gary.
Every time I watch a video from their Jackson 5 days I am reminded that these young brothers were the best of all time and still to date no group is better.
The Jackson 5 were our generationsBlack America Beatles.
I LOVE YOU MICHAEL you changed this world you made this world better. and as our Lord Jesus Christ wanted us to love and care and make this world a better place with no sin and Jesus died on the cross for our sins. and Michael was one of the people that God sent to this world for a reason TO HELP OR WORLD
AND FOR ALL THE HATERS OUT THERE screw you ya'll never told the truth you told lies because lies are what sell but i know those WERE NOT TRUE
@100MNeena i agree so much with you! This just lifts me up so high I feel i can touch michael <3 He always make me happy, no matter what s*** im going through.RIP Michael 'gorgeous'Jackson xox
Dont get me wrong, i ain't no big Michael Jackson fan, but this song is just amazing, I bought it on 45 back in 1983, it's just brilliant, like I say I aint the biggest MJ fan, but there's no one else in this world who can or has danced as good as him and I wish that I could move the same - i feel that I've grown up with you and now you're not there, it makes you aware of your own mortality - God rest, it will become all of us one day - peace and love!
so many generations grew up with michael... i totally agree with you when you say it makes us realize our own mortality. it's really crazy when you think about it...
if chris brown remade it it would have to be his own style and good version and usually remakes just dont do the song justice..its best to leave great songs alone..& browns voice just wouldnt cut it to this version
this song is amazing..i love the forever, michael album it's my favorite solo by him while he was still with motown..we'll see you soon mike, just one more step..
Yesterday I was crying with the song Speechless. my mom said; Michael jackson isn't dead, he is living again. look how many fans he has now. and i'm sure he looks down from is cloud, and laughs about girls who dance his dances, sing his songs, and just are obsessed with him. Michael jackson loved everyone, he will love you two, even though he didn't know you. And my mom was right. But Michael, I love you, and I miss you so damn much. R.I.P. in heaven. <3
@KELLYLOVESMJ You know that clouds aren't concrete enough to hold the weight of a human body, right? Even so, it's disturbing to think of the decomposing body of MJ hanging on a cloud somewhere. No heaven out there, sorry, Kelly.
The Holland Brothers abandoned their Invictus/Hot Wax/Music Merchant record labels to become independent producers. They ended up producing mostly Motown artists during the remainder of the 70s such as the Scherrie Payne-era Supremes, Eddie Kendricks, Jr. Walker and the All Stars, and Michael's last official solo album for the label.
greg street was talking this song up on V103 here in atlanta, so i looked it up. i can't believe i've never heard it, but it sounds great! RIP michael
Rest In Peace Micheal, the Earth did not know what they had in you. Now we're all missing you, Your now in heaven with the best of them Bless Your Soul Micheal
I can't believe he's gone. MJ made my teenage years enjoyable and later years bearable - I've laughed and I've cried listening to his music. Thank you Michael, it was a pleasure and an honour to have lived in your lifetime. You were a kind and considerate human being - one of a kind and I will never ever forget you. RIP Michael. Love always XXX
16 years old when he recorded this for "Forever, Michael"...and it's still one of his best solo efforts (it's not a Jackson 5 song, but from his 3rd solo album in '77). I can remember being a kid driving to the beach with my family, and this song came on the radio, and it was perfect. And still is.
I cannot believe that Michael is gone. He touched millions of people acoss the world. He will be missed dearly. He's the first and the last. There will be no other Michael Jackson, at least not in my lifetime.
Sums up the entire human race in two words - "Almost there".. and so it will be forever.
