I'll Be There: Mariah Carey or the Jackson Five? Discuss! I like both versions, but prefer the one by the Jackson Five. But to each his or her own! Which version do you like and why? Or do you like both like me? [Edited 11/23/07 16:25pm] | |

Jackson 5 off top. Mariah's alright but it's too campy, lol. Least IMHO. With the original, you can hear the instrumentation behind it and five brothers in harmony was perfect plus I loved the clavinet played in that one. Either way, Willie Hutch was probably PROUD of himself when this song hit number one (since he was one of its writers). | |

What do you mean? I noticed that there are a number of Mariah Carey fans on the Org and thought it would be cool to see what orgers think about both versions of the song. | |

Easy, Jackson 5 Wins.
But how about The Jackson 5's version V Michael Jacksons version from the dangerous/bad tours or the solo recorded version seen in 1993. http://www.youtube.com/wa...5O61yKkdr4 Who wins this one? [Edited 11/23/07 17:08pm] | |

Little MJ vocally would've kicked adult Mike's butt in this song, I'm sorry. Not saying that because he had shitty vocals (he sounded "decent"). Actually his 1981 live version of it was better and he was 22, lol. | |

Oh yeah... Better him than Trey Lorenz. But yeah, Jermaine helped to add on to the beauty of that song with his vocals. There was always something magical happening when Michael and Jermaine sang songs together. | |
