I only know the songs from I Want You Back! Unreleased Masters, that I bought in 2009.
Where are the others from? I found them:

That's How Love Is and Man's Temptation are in my top 5 most listened to Jackson 5 songs. They are brilliant songs.
 
‘Cupid’ is catchy. I can imagine it being played during the credits of a romantic ‘hallmark’-type movie.

songs like ‘if the shoe don’t fit’ and ‘that’s how love is’ are on brand with the ‘bubblegum soul’ associated with the group in the early seventies, that I love so much💜however, the lyrics are not as innocent as the melodies suggest, and honestly bother me..

‘love call’ has such a joyful and uplifting chorus, but the verses were rushed and strained.

this seems to be the case for most of the unreleased material. I believe the j5 era was the most prolific. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was more left in the vault. they probably tried to record as much as they could before michael’s voice broke..

I like all the songs I listed, but if I had to choose one it would be ‘Cupid ’. it had the least flaws for me.

That's How Love Is, (We're The) Music Makers, I Got A Sure Thing, Iddint and my personal favourite is Feelin' Alright. Loved their performance of that song on the Diana Ross show
 
I'll go with Listen I'll Tell You How/Lucky Day/Feelin' Alright/If I Can't Nobody Can/Would Ya Would Ya Baby😎
 
What's so good about goodbye
Sunny Boy
If the shoe don't fit
Mama told me not to come
You better watch out
 
Still can’t really vote but I noticed Man’s Temptation is in the list and that is a fantastic rendition of that song. One of the very best he recorded during his Motown years
