Love Scenes
Possibly an outtake from the Maybe Tomorrow Sessions. What we have here is another would-be Motown gem that's been crammed inside the attic among the lost files. The Jackson Five pour their heart and soul into this Rock/R&B hybrid. Listen below...
Lyrics
Oooh, love scenes, love scenes, love scenes
Ooh girl,
You're a part of my life
I needed so bad
And Ill never forget
The good times we had
Like we starred in a movie
The lines that we said
Mine came from the heart
And yours were the same.
Love scenes, ooh hoo
That was yesterday
You wanna bring it back to me
(bring it back, bring it back)
Ooh girl
All the tears you cried
Were just part of the act
And the days go by
I know its a fact
And now I can see
What happened to you and me hey!
Love scenes, ooh hoo
That was yesterday
You wanna bring it back to me
(bring it back, bring it back)
Ooh girl
(ooh baby, ooh baby)
Love scenes, ooh hoo
That was yesterday
You wanna bring it back to me
(bring it back, bring it back)
(ooh baby, ooh baby)
You played the final scene
And walked out of my life
By the unhappy ending
We think were so right
Our part now has landed
On the cutting room floor
And it hurt me so bad
Cos I still love you more and more and more
Love scenes, ooh hooOooh, love scenes, love scenes, love scenes
Ooh girl,
Youre a part of my life
I needed so bad
And Ill never forget
The good times we had
Like we starred in a movie
The lines that we said
Mine came from the heart
And yours were the same.
Love scenes, ooh hoo
That was yesterday
You wanna bring it back to me
(bring it back, bring it back)
Ooh girl
All the tears you cried
Were just part of the act
And the days go by
I know its a fact
And now I can see
What happened to you and me hey!
Love scenes, ooh hoo
That was yesterday
You wanna bring it back to me
(bring it back, bring it back)
Ooh girl
(ooh baby, ooh baby)
Love scenes, ooh hoo
That was yesterday
You wanna bring it back to me
(bring it back, bring it back)
(ooh baby, ooh baby)
You played the final scene
And walked out of my life
By the unhappy ending
We think were so right
Our part now has landed
On the cutting room floor
And it hurt me so bad
Cos I still love you more and more and more
Love scenes, ooh hoo
That was yesterday
You wanna bring it back to me
(bring it back, bring it back)
(ooh baby, ooh baby)
(Repeat 4 times to fade out)

Jackson 5 "Money Honey"
The Jackson Five render an excellent remake of a superb 50's classic by The Drifters(listen right Here). Coming from the golden days of Rock N Roll, these boys give it a modern twist(relevant to the early 70's).

Jackson 5 Outtake Medley
The Jackson Five often performed three albumless outtakes on various shows(including The Bill Cosby Show). "Killing Me Softly" "Danny Boy" and "By The Time I Get To Phoenix" always seemed to come in three's. Starting with the Roberta cover.
Also known as "Killing Me Softly With His Words" was written by Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel. At first sung by Lori Lieberman in 1971(listen to it Here). But in 1973, Roberta Flank spiced the tune and brought it to the masses. Many acts have covered the song ever since-Including The Jackson 5.
During the days when Jesus walked the Earth, Great Britain was inhabited by an indigenous tribe called the Celtics. In those days, a bedtime story arose among the villages. A nursery rhyme would eventually spring-up upon children's lips. Eventually, the Anglo/Saxon's adopted their traditions.
As time marched on, that old nursery rhyme became a national symbol of Ireland that would be carried into the New World. By the 20th century, the lyrics had been slightly modified(by Frederick Weatherly).
As The Beatles elevated the world's conscience, many musicians have resurrected this old folk song and infused new color into the theme.
One of them just happen to be The Jackson Five.
At first sung by Johnny Rivers, Glen Campbell popularized this tune and has been covered on numerous occasions ever since.
The Jackson 5 did their rendition in 1974 on The Bill Cosby Show.
