I like the funny little puns that equate the girl's admirers with famous scientists from history:

"Isaac said he kissed you beneath the apple tree" (Isaac Newton and the gravity apple) "When Benjie held your hand he felt electricity" (Benjamin Franklin and his kite) "When Alexander called you, he said he rang your chimes" (Alexander Graham Bell and the telephone) "Christopher discovered you're way ahead of your time" (Christopher Columbus)

I'm either the only person to have noticed this or else everyone knows it so well they don't even feel the need to comment. Either way, I'm a geek.

Musically, I like the voices trading "Buh buh buh buh"'s, and the string hook at the end. It's totally contagious.

Haha...I didn't even notice that,and you are not a geek!

I'm bad at observing things...This song is one of my favorites from the Jackson 5. It's sad how people forget about all this beautiful music these days. I don't even listen to music other than the 60's,70's,80's,and 90's music.

These days music is mostly about sex and alcohol...It gets on my last nerves.

oh my god your little scientist thing so makes sense!!!

@law4 Ive been wondering for 40+ years why no-one else commented about this. My wife thinks I have OCD. GEEKS RULE!
