More about this title

About the Artist: The Jacksons

The Jacksons emerged from the Jackson family legacy to become one of pop music's most dynamic and influential groups. Their tight harmonies, infectious rhythms, and innovative production shaped the sound of 1980s pop and rock, earning them a place alongside the era's defining artists.

Why we love this

This arrangement captures the irresistible groove and vocal accessibility that made The Jacksons' catalog so teachable. The piano/vocal/chords format gives singers and pianists room to dig into the arrangement's harmonic structure while maintaining the upbeat, celebratory energy that students naturally respond to.

What to expect

Upbeat and inviting, with the kind of bounce that makes you want to move. The arrangement balances a laid-back groove with enough harmonic color to keep musicians engaged, delivering the optimism and funk that defined The Jacksons' best work.

Who it's for

Piano students working toward intermediate repertoire will appreciate a song structured around recognizable pop language and radio-friendly melody. Singers performing in jazz or contemporary vocal ensemble settings, as well as pianists preparing audition or recital material, can build confidence and musicality through this accessible yet sophisticated arrangement.

How to get the most out of it

  • Keep the rhythmic pocket tight; this song lives in its groove, so lock in the piano's comping pattern with the vocal phrasing rather than rushing ahead.
  • Balance the melody line clearly over the accompaniment without letting it sit too high in the register, which will preserve the song's conversational tone.
  • Use the chord chart to explore voice-leading options in the piano part; small inversions and substitutions can add sophistication without losing the song's pop sensibility.
  • Shape the lyrical content with dynamic contrast; the "enjoy yourself" hook lands differently when it's supported by deliberate crescendos and softer passages.

How to use it

Feature this during a pop or contemporary music showcase where students can perform across vocal and instrumental idioms. It also works well as a warm-up or morale builder at the start of rehearsal, given its positive message and infectious rhythm section.

Skills your students will build

  • comping in a pop/rock idiom with chord awareness
  • phrasing melody over syncopated accompaniment patterns
  • interpreting rhythmic notation in a contemporary style
  • balancing vocal delivery with rhythmic precision in a groove-based context
