Don't know how anyone can listen to the first 70 seconds of "Man in the Mirror," and then say the person wasn't that talented. O.K., he pssd it away, but he had it. That's my favorite song of his (post-freak.) I'll be there is my favorite pre-freak song, but this is my favorite performance(acting like a lil James Brown):

I watch that and its not like "he is really good for a 13 year old". I watch it and im thinking that is one of the most talented performers i have ever seen and he is only 13. As he gets older he confirms it here:

I guess I "appreciate" his "talent", but I really have never liked a single song of his...sorry. BUT..Can you imagine if The Jackson 5 had happened now instead of then? It would have been unreal..think Jonas Brothers, that stupid Timberlake abortion, In Sync all rolled into one. Gazillions I tell ya', gazillions...

It wouldn't have been that big of a deal. They were awkward looking on stage except Michael.

One of the main reasons why they were successful is because Barry Gordy took the black out of them so that white people could relate to them and feel comfortable watching them perform.

I always thought that his performance (although it was probably lip synced) on the Motown 25th special was his coming out party.
