ONE BAD APPLE
Song Berry Gordy rejected for the Jackson 5, only for it to be recorded
in classic Jackson 5 style by the Osmonds – who held the no.1 spot on
the Hot 100 in the States while the Jackson 5’s own Mama’s Pearl
stalled at no.2.
‘Did you know that record was ours at first?’ Michael once asked. ‘But
Motown turned it down. George Jackson is the producer, and he came
to Motown with it, and Motown turned it down because we were in a
funky, strong track-type bag, with good melody. George’s song was
good, but too easy going – we were striving for something much
stronger. So he went and gave it to the Osmonds. They sang it, and it
was a smash – number one!’
It may not have ever been recorded.
