The Jacksons on The Carol Burnett Show



The six Jackson brothers show their vocal chops without guitars or a backing tape on The Carol Burnett Show in 1975. No lip-syncing here; you can tell they are a little out of breath after doing "Dancin' Machine." That's the only Jackson 5 song they do in this sequence, though. Bonus: an appearance by little sister Janet.

I was musing to myself about how Jimmy Carr has had his face changed over the years, gone from a moon faced pasty faced bloke to a ... well, have a look at him now.

But truly the cake is taken and eaten twice by Michael Jackson, his visage on the above clip had me thinking he was one of the older, sort of forgotten brothers.

I'm quite happy with my non movie star looks, would find it frightening to consider getting sharp knives doing things with it.

Wow - Michael Jackson back then. No one could have guessed what he would later do in his own.
