During the Motown 25 performance of the Jackson 5 medley, there is a memorable moment where Michael Jackson notices that Jermaine Jackson’s microphone isn’t working properly. As the group performs “I’ll Be There,” Jermaine steps forward for his lead vocal, but his microphone remains silent in the mix. Recognizing the issue immediately, Michael leans over and shares his own microphone with his brother so that Jermaine can be heard. They continue singing together, sharing the same microphone for a portion of the song, ensuring Jermaine’s vocal line is captured clearly for the audience.
