Im just blown away by this performance in two ways. It makes me miss when I was a kid, as was MJ, but I'm also blown away by how Sheryl Crow, at least to my ear, is nearly perfect in her execution of the song and also perfectly executing the sound of Jackson's voice in the early 1970's. WOW!

She is so versatile - R&B, POP, COUNTRY, BLUES. But she can dance in 6 inch heels is what's really amazing!

Damn I new Sheryl crow could sing..but she gave goose bumps..chills..

She really did this song justice. She performed this song very well, and it's not an easy song to sing, she made it look easy. I haven't been following her over the years too much but I have loved her work since her debut album in '93.

This lady has talent beyond talent! Her ability to diversify and yet retain her own style of music is awesome! 😎😎😎

this is probably one of my Favorite Sheryl Crow's Music performances! SHE IS SUCH A GORGEOUS Woman!!!!

You go Sheryl! The energy in the room was electrifying. You can tell they really enjoyed her performance. Even the band was having a great time. Michael chose her as his backup singer so you know he saw something in her. Mrs. Obama was having a great time, even her daughter was getting into it. I think she was amazing. How hard would it be for her to sing a Legend's song in front of the President of the U.S. and all of the people Michael knew, loved and respected in the industry. Give her credit guys, come on.

Bass line is still fresh nearly 50 years later

Sheryl Crow in my Top 5 of favourite female voices. What a talent this woman has! Michael would've been proud of this rendition!

She is Soul, Rock and Country all rolled into one!

She gets better everyday! Love these collaborations she’s done too. She’s so smart!!!

I love this! I never knew that she started out on tour with and then became a superstar in her own right.

WOW! Not an easy song to sing...but Sheryl Crow nailed it! Love me some Jackson 5 BITD.

Spectacular! She never misses a beat! Very energetic too!

When I first heard this in her studio version it was so close to Jackson 5 sound i was amazed. She has been to me and proves to be just about the most talented female singer / songwriter of all time.

Her voice is allegedly contains the sun. I love that voice.

You nailed it! Sheryl can sing. I am blown away.

No pressure at all when you have Obama, Stevie Wonder and Smokey Robinson in the front row...Crow killed it

Awesome tribute! Sheryl rocked it, and Greg Phillinganes was bringing it on vocals and keyboards too! Michael was probably grinning from ear to ear in Heaven!

Many of us had no idea she was capable of this. Man she let it all hang out so to speak and did an incredible job. Sorry that the current administration (2018) isn't hosting such neat musical events. Way to go Sheryl!!!

you gotta admit, she's got a sort of understated vocal prowess about her.

After I heard this. I went outside and cried. MICHAEL WAS AMAZING, AND SO ARE YOU

What incredible talent!

Great live performance of a classic song of The Jackson 5. Sheryl Crow is great singer.

The original is my favorite single of all-time and impossible to match. But it would be unfortunate if no one ever performed it because of that fact. All involved did a great job 👏.

The best I have ever heard from Ms Crow.. Excellent and this is a challenging song

Im from Brazil in 2018 and i wanna say that it was beautiful, really beautiful! Congratulations👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹 Girl,please, sing again! U are a pretty woman! I loved it so much!

Da da da da da da Daaaamn!!!! Sheryl Crow did the young Micheal Jackson vocal to the max. Hitting notes like no ones business. Unbe-fucking-lievable!

Aw Michael. I want you back. Sheryl, quit making my eyes tear up. Great band !

She NAILED it. What an upbeat performance!

Considerando lo difícil que es cantar esa canción solo me queda decir: ¡QUE GENIAAAAAAAAL! Es definitivamente un extraordinario cover de "I Want You Back" ¡Aplausos Sheryl Crow!

WOW...Sheryl nailed this AMAZING

this just blows me away...Sheryl is amazing!

This song is 50 years old goes to show great songs never go out of style they are timeless.

Beautiful job! one of the Greatest songs EVER!

She just rocked this, and all while dancing on those heels. daymn!

Sherly Crow is just so lovely it does my head in. [British fact].

Wow! This is crazy! My goodness, what a yearning for dancing right now! I want it back...

She’s amazing & versatile , One of few that I can count on one hand. I love her she’s my favourite female artist . I loved her singing with Smokey Robinson ❤

She covered this damn near perfectly. Awesome!

nicely done, she's got the voice that sound's a bit like young Michael :) And she knows how to groove!

Wow.. What a brilliant performance...

Wow! GREAT rendition! Never knew she sang MJ5 backup, cool!

Beautiful performance, Cheryl!

Ive only recently discovered Sheryl Crowe and she’s fantastic

the Jackson's (Michael) really changed the music world for the better :o)

This is the best cover I've seen so far of this song. Woo! Sheryl, you nailed it!

I've ALWAYS been a fan of Sheryl and loved her voice, but DAYUM!!!!!! ALRIGHT, GIRL!!!!

Is there anything this amazing musician cannot nail?

Beautiful Cheryl well done !!

Holy shit!!Sheryl -the voice is almost exact as MJ’s!!!!!that was excellent

I had a special place for Sheryl.....is within my heart.

What a voice! Love from Turkey

This is crazy good.............

Sheryl es maravillosa, te amo, tu version me ayuda a sobrellevar cada día, gracias...

Wow that made my Day..Sheryl Crow... She sounded G o o d when she did the Scream.. I like that. As I go Krazy when Paul McCartney does that in HEY JUDE... Sheryl..You ROCK!!

Sherly is so talented...guitarist songwriter and singer!

Wow........Brought tears to my eyes too...thought I was the only one till I read the comments which I don't usually do.

one of the best covers of this song!

My heart belongs to another. Not even lying.

no kidding "tallblonde"..I can't emagine trying to get my breath between phrases, I'm exhausted just listening to her do it so beautifully, the gitl's got it goin on

It was December 1969 - NOT 1972 - when the Jackson 5 recorded and released "I Want You Back."

wowwwwww love Sheryl Crow respekt for this number ..👍☺ Michael from Denmark

Omg no reverb or delay on her voice and she still sounds incredible!!!

Gosh Sheryl is so beautiful and such a talented, successful singer!

Holy crap......she is so amazing !!!

amazing performance !

great rendition of an old classic...keep em coming todd and kellie.....rusty

You can't beat the classics, of course!

Good job Sheryl on a difficult song. And what a band, the late great Ricky Lawson on drums, perfectly in control!

she has some FUNK!!!!!!!!! I love her sound MOTOWN should've signed HER UP

Greg the absolute legend on the keys.

Yes, during the "Bad Tour" (1987-89).

Love it Sheryl. Brings me back to my childhood.

Jackson5懐かしい曲が聞けてHappy ❤🎉

Cool performance! You really have to respect the talent and skill of her.

she sounds like Michael. Amazing.

She’s got it down, one of her best cuts. MJ is hard to do. But she sang with him sooo.

I amazing how she still looks so beautiful after all these years. I mean the bad era seems like ages ago.

always liked Sheryl, I played and sang to all here songs on 1993 album,Tuesday Night Music Club. Knew she came from Springfield Mo, but am very surprised she was with MJ !!! Nailed it !!!!

She's amazing!

That was awesome!!!!👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾😎

Kudos to the band, too! Featuring the late, great Ricky Lawson on drums.

Wuuuuooooh amazing 👌💯❤️ Kissessss from Spain 🇪🇦

FANTASTIC!!!! A TRUE COLLECTABLE !!!

Wow wouldn't have thought of her to sing this but she nailed it. MJ would be proud

Heck ! How do you get to be The President and have Sheryl Crow coming to sing for you ? How cool is that ? That's a perfect cover !

unreal..it played in teh background, so I didn't see who it was ....I'm like dang.... man ...Cheryl is real!!!

She nailed it!!! Awesome
