Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE JACKSON FIVE!

Johnny's told this story before but originally Michael Jackson was not the one who was supposed to sing this song, they didn't feel his voice had the maturity and depth to pull off the serious subject matter.

Mmmmm hmmm, how'd the decision not work out? The Jackson Five and 'Never Can Say Goodbye'

See what Johnny did there with the name? Just like the cartoon show about them used to do. No moss on Johnny.

Know what sounds good on a hot summer night? Duh, the Jackson 5ive, pay attention. How about his gem, 'Never Can Say Goodbye' to get us started tonight on this last night of July 2015.

Yeah baby, let's set the Way-Back-Machine for 1976 on this timeless classic. The Jackson 5 with 'Never Can Say Goodbye'. The video is a little rough but timeless nonetheless. A commenter on this song at YouTube put it best:

What would this world be without music like this?

We agree.
