Jackson 5 and Stevie Wonder

Today I have some oldies for you, but this song is one of those old but gold songs. The Jackson 5 are still one of the best funk and blues and rock n roll groups to date. Each song has such a different sound yet there is still that same theme and feeling that connects it all. What I like about this song is that it has a lot of motown influence which is a sound that has really taken a backseat in light of recent genres. But this sort of throwback to the motown sound was perfect for the Jackson 5. Another really cool thing about this song is that the lead vocals are done by a pre-pubescent Michael Jackson. So if any of you wanted to know what he sounded like before becoming a teenager, this is it! This song is one of those absolute classics, the kind of song you can recognize instantly. Even if you don't remember the name of the song, the tune is something you can always point out and jam to. This is actually a great song to just chill out and reminisce to. This song is actually used...
