Now! Can't get no better than Marvin Gaye. He was so much ahead of his time in both his messages and skilled style.

I will never understand the "Heart of enraged jealousy" that causes anyone to kill another, "with unrighteous judgement" against such a Beautiful soulful person, such as Marvin Gaye. This man had a gift from God! He is missed!

The day before his 45th birthday, Marvin was killed with a shotgun by his father after a heated argument . Ironic, dont you think ?

If we had Jesus in our hearts their would be nothing but love, because God is love. The world has been taken over by darkness and has driven the light away. Sad. I know, I'm 80 years old and my heart breaks for this generation.

Marvin was such a great singer. This song is about the war in Vietnam, racism and environmental destruction. So much soul. One of Detroit's finest.

This song is just as relevant today as it was when it came out back in 1971.

Ranked as one of the greatest songs in RnR(popular music) history. Black men had disproportionately been drafted and were being killed in Vietnam.

Great soul song!

Great song. Just to be correct, it's Marvin Gaye, not Gale.

The original version captures the true feel, soul and spirit of the song and lyrics from those times. Marvin was as a modern-day prophet with an important message about war for humanity. Thank you for sharing g this great memory. Do check out the original though... you won’t regret it - especially if you enjoyed this live version.

One of the best song’s of the time. Still applies today! Marvin’s voice was so great

Marvin was 1 of the greatest sings of our time.

Been listening to Marvin Gaye since the 1960’s, doesn’t get old, love him

The line "father theres no need to escalate it" kinda gets me. Such a sad end to such an amazing artist.

Marvin’s protest song in reaction to the Vietnam War where so many black, dispossessed and uneducated brothers were disproportionately being sent to die for nothing. A brilliant and powerful protest song especially as he was previously know for more traditional songs.

There's was no better man to sing this message. A song today is still true.

Marvin- we all miss you. Thank God we have your music.

Marvin was the first artist that recorded all of the overdub background vocals himself.

Listen to his recorded version. There's more layers to the song.

One of the best songs from this time. Absolutely love love love this song.
