*_“I Wanna Be Where You Are” is a song written by Arthur “T-Boy” Ross and Leon Ware for Michael Jackson, who took the song to number 7 in Cash Box and number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It also reached number 2 on the U.S. R&B singles chart in 1972. His third straight Top 10 Pop hit during his early solo career with Motown. It was also the first collaboration between Ware and Ross, the younger brother of legendary superstar Diana Ross. This song would be one of Jackson’s most covered songs, by singers including Marvin Gaye, Willie Hutch, Jason Weaver and later The Fugees. Ware and Ross also penned the classic Marvin Gaye hit, “I Want You” several years afterwards_* _Please my Moonwalkers don't forget to liked, comment, shared & subscribed to my youtube channel and make sure to keep your notifications stay on for more contents soon, Thank you my "Moonwalkers" and I hope y'all stay safe, stay strong, stay true to yourself & Keep the Faith "PEACES", __#MJJFOREVER_
Jose Feliciano recorded at Motown Record the best cover of this song in late 1981 in english, a hit in Brasil. And another version in Spanish in 1982 ("Ahora si quiero Amar") for his Hit Lp "Escenas de Amor" Gold record in almost all Latin America and nr 1 in Spain
You can tell Michael spent a lot of time mastering this song with his adult voice, compared to when he sang it live in Japan around the time his voice first cracked.
@@danylueke1518 there are no live performances on RUclips. But whatever streaming service you use, there is an album version. The album is called “In Japan! live”
_Speaking of nostalgic I'm bout to play my most favorite childhood games such as Spider-Man 2 , Marvel Nemesis Rise Of The Imperfects & Sonic Riders on my playstation 2 and I love your profile picture of Spider-Man because I'm too also a fan of Spider-Man since childhood plus I draw a few picture of him too back then_
_But yeah when you heard the live version of the song "I Wanna Be Where You" Michael perform It touches you right in the feels or mostly importantly in your soul also you can see how cheerful and happy Michael was during his Off The Wall era_
@@mjouttakes1945 You are so right ! Michael was singing with all of his soul !!! And I'm so honoured to hear that you're fan of Spidey, I really didn't knew about that, these are my favourite childhood games too 😱 Spider-Man 2 has a few videos on my channel by the way, and I recently did a tribute to Michael and Stan Lee 😢
@@БогданКрименюк_Sadly that part hurts me when I find out that Stan Lee pass away 2 months ago, this men made my childhood awesome back in the day plus he's a marvel legend always and will be and let me tell you my most favorite quote from Spider-Man 3 is when Stan Lee made cameo appearance told Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) this ~You know I guess one person can make a difference nuff said~ he definitely can make a difference all right and I know it R.I.P. Stan Lee (1922 - 2018) __#Excelsior_
I love this........Michael is the only artist that I can think of who's voice actually sounds the same rather its them singing live in concert.......or on the studio recorded album..........No filters needed...no automatic tuning.....none of that is needed
I learned Vocal Harmony from the Supremes and the Jackson Five.. but you must admit ....the Vocal Harmony of the Jacksons sound so sweet and pure.. We love y'all. Legendary!
I was just listening to the Got To Be There album and was like, man, I wanna hear him sing this as an adult. So glad we have video of this to come back to!
(Sigh). I SO REGRET never seeing the J5/Jacksons pre-'Thriller.' I LOVE the J5 stuff and would've enjoyed hearing more than the three-song medley and 'I'll Be There' snippet performed during the 'Triumph' and subsequent tours. So glad folks are uploading 'Destiny' tour footage to YT!
Michael Jackson I love u so much and Michael Jackson u will always be the greatest entertainer forever and forever and Michael Jackson u will always be awesome forever and forever and Michael Jackson I will always love u forever and forever and Michael Jackson u will always be in my heart forever and forever
One of his first solo singles while he was still with J5 sounds even better years later with #TheJacksons and performed a little faster than the studio version.
Yeah then in the 90s it became even stranger. If you listen to whatever happens, heaven can wait, dangerous, and him live in Wembley 1988, he don't even sound like the same person. His friends said he had a deep voice he hid from the public and could sing in many ranges. But he seems to have gotten taller too later on. Very strange.
The crazy thing about michael voice as a kid he could hit those high screams and notes but as he got older his voiced changed and he couldnt reach them anymore. Very intetesting
I'm a Michael Jackson fan Jackson 5 fan through-and-through however in my opinion he should have left this one alone his vocals can't come close to sing the song properly, 🤷🏿♂️
No this sounds amazing & also his vocals are perfect! You have no idea what you’re saying also wym singing a song properly it’s either u sing the song with passion and joy/love or u don’t and clearly MJ is and u sing a song too properly it takes the soul out of it✍🏽👑✨💯

What a great way Michael chose to sing this with his adult voice!
What a great way indeed! =) If only Michael sang more of his Motown songs (other than the Jackson 5 medley) live as an adult more often.
Cim Jarrey right
Well he couldn't sing it the way he did when he was 14. So he had to create new ways to sing it once his voice changed
they changed the key a half step lower so he would be able to sing those early songs.
@@busybody8364 duh bro
Even in his adult voice Michael sings the song even better.
That’s an unpopular fact
Love finding videos of him singing the older songs as an adult
Me too🕺🎤🎵🎼
Same ❤❤❤

Where can I find the Japan 🇯🇵 performance

@@danylueke1518 there’s audio of the Japan song on you tube. It’s good. Not sure if it’s the whole tour though but this song is on it
Yea that Japan show was rough. Poor mike.
i wish michael played aliitle bit of this in his later years
All time favorite song by them. Mike vocals on the original and lyrics for a kid was crazy. Rip
Splatter yep amazing
I was 16 in 72 and this song blew me away.
YES
It was Michael's song. It wasn't a group release. It was on Michael's solo album Got to be there
Mines too🎉
Am I the only one who loves this song? ❤️
No it’s the best.
Nah I do too
This song is underrated. One of my all time favourites.
The live breakdown of this song was a Head of its time... Sounds like something still in 2019.
I agree!
Wow... A mastered disco recording of this... Damn I wish this happened.
Just think, in our lifetimes, we were served by the Great Michael Jackson... What an honor.
RIP, MJ 👑🎤🙏🏽
THE BEST VERSION EVER !!!!
So nostalgic !!! 😢

A this time let me tell you where I'm at whoooo!
miss YOU michael :(
The crazy thing about michael voice as a kid he could hit those high screams and notes but as he got older his voiced changed and he couldnt reach them anymore. Very intetesting
I mean puberty could have played a part
2:01 & 2:06 👏🏿🤦🏿♂️‼❤♾

Yassssssss❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
1:14 so good
0:12 who the hell is speakinh here? Whose speaking voice is this??? I thought that was Michael..
marlon
@@deleteable. He sounds like mature era Michael
💛
I was 16 in 72
Check out "SIC ILL - Did I leave your mind" uses this sample.
In Vietnam he was 18, while in here we were 22 sweating all over the place...
He couldn’t sing the song anymore cause his voice changed 😢😢😢 but he tried.
Eleshia Madison did we listen to the same song and watch the same video?
King Of the Beast yes the song is too high for him as an adult
Eleshia Madison what you talking about he still did good
joshdaboss yes he did incredible but he couldn’t sing it how he did as a child.
Eleshia Madison true but his voice was still good
The gf
Love the Jacksons, love this song, love Destiny and love disco but no to this version lol♥️

Anyways.....
Then why does this sound even better ?
Justin
y’all are lying like hell in these comments lmao he sounded terrible attempting this as an adult.
Surely you can't be talking about Michael. He did a rendition of the song. You wanna be different so bad lmaoo
@@urmom777 girl who tf wants to be different? i have ears and an opinion. puberty definitely ruined the way he sung it. stop talking to me
@@heylaniii lmaoo you're seething 😭😭

😢 The Disco Era just ruined a Beautiful Jackson 5 ballat with with that up tempo bullshit....And that's hard to do with MJ singing.
No

This is priceless.
