Marvin Gaye Lyrics

Marvin Gaye", the pictures are from the box "Marvin Gaye -
the Master 1961 - 1984")

Marvin Gaye's extraordinary career matched his
extraordinary life, a mixture of blessings and banes,
dazzling success and inscrutable pain. His biography and
discography are twin reflections of the same dualty: the
artistic and personal struggle to heal the split between
head and heart, flesh and spirit, ego and God. Meanwhile,
the music lives on for the pleasures of its beauty More...

Review about Marvin Gaye songs
I WANT YOU | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song I Want You performed by Marvin Gaye

I was a senior in high school when this album broke and it was number 1. Marvin Gaye was a singer who put all he had into his music. Just listen to some of the early songs and especially the duets with Tammi Terrell.

The Cruelty of Divorce | Reviewer: Jackie
    ------ About the song Is That Enough performed by Marvin Gaye

A friend is going through a heart-wrenching divorce process and on hearing of his woes, I immediately recalled the words in this song. I somewhat reluctantly suggested to my friend to play it in his home when the estranged wife was around. It hit a nerve! The almost 3 year divorce torture is due to be finalised in November 2011. Thanks (posthumously) Marvyn. Gold-diggers do have consciences after all!

    ------ About the song You're All I Need To Get By performed by Marvin Gaye

This song tops them all with the sweet voice of Tammi Terrell and stunning voice of Marvin Gaye is unbelievable and can never be duplicated because so much soul was put into it. There will never be a duet like this again.

It Takes two.... | Reviewer: Frank Delacoe
    ------ About the song It Takes Two performed by Marvin Gaye

What a great great song, from a time when Motown ruled the world and anyone with a heart and soul absorbed the music like a drug.
Marvin Gaye - a legend of his time, but like all legends cut dowm before his work was done.
Play this music if you have it, its guaranteed to bring those memories flooding back, if youre young enough not to have heard any of this music, get some friends together one evening and play it loud - bets are on you will be "dancing in the streets" just like we did.
Long may Motown live...

stubborn marvin gaye wrong lyrics to me anyway | Reviewer: Aiysha Davis
    ------ About the song Stubborn Kind Of Fellow performed by Marvin Gaye

i thoughtthe song said jump flee out of sight
and at the begging i thought when he got to the second verse it was like say yeah yeah yeah one more time now baby say yeah yeah yeah say yeah yeah. Im aware of it being a motown song i am also aware why his dad was up set with him singing these songs becuse they were very sexual lyrics now that im reading them its about him having sex with other women and then with her . Even the begging sounds like an orgasum there right sex drugs and rock and roll but at least this song matched the singer marvin gaye just ozzed of sex. Hes tbe afrodities of motown music.

    ------ About the song Sexual Healing performed by Marvin Gaye

Sexual Healing is my best tract, the tract brings me back to live, it makes me happy whenever i listen to it, i used it as a ringtone, i have made it a point of duty to listen to the tract before going to bed.
No correction at all.

Rest in peace Marvi i miss U
continue to rest in perfect peace with the Lord.

more than soundtrack it is a travel back in time | Reviewer: Ron Wolpa
    ------ About the song Trouble Man performed by Marvin Gaye

That makes me travel back in time , "nothing can be more seventies" than this track despite I like most "Don´t mess wit mr. T" which I consider more distressed and dramatic. Only those guys who lived the 1970s years like me can really absorb the meaning of this kind of aesthethic. There are some soundtracks that became icons of 1970s , I can mention the soundtracks of the movies “The vanishing point” and “Shaft” , the last one composed by Isaac Hayes, who passed away in 2008 , was awarded by Academy for Best Original Song in 1972. For the younger generation who did not live those years and want to know what I mean I recommend try to watch movies of that era , hear the soundtracks , pay attention to the locations , to the slang , to the apparel , read about history of that time , etc.

He Sang Before His Time | Reviewer: Kimetta Coleman
    ------ About the song If I Should Die Tonight performed by Marvin Gaye

No matter how tragic the experiences Marvin encountered and the one that signaled the end of his life, no one can dispute that he had a gift of prophesy that speaks to world even now.

One can read in the lyrics and hear in the music the void he so longed to fill - one of relationship. Whether that relationship was the love of a woman; a wife. Something lasting and growing. Then too with relationship to humanity.

He tried to tell us that without love (true Love) we can never reach our fullest potential of embracing because to be devoid of love is to e devoid of LIFE. So then it is only apparent here in this song, "If I Should Die Tonight" he proclaims that eventhough my existence here on this earth is but for a time - all of its (life) meaning and purpose only came because of love and that my heart was capable of receiving and giving love.

And he was thankful...

grooving... | Reviewer: angela a. trehern
    ------ About the song I Want You performed by Marvin Gaye

this is a very beautiful song, the melody is grooving...very laid back and mellow with heartfelt words...marvin gaye was an awesome singer, i missed seeing him...no one would go with me to the saenger in new orleans,then his father shoe him...wow i have regretted not going ever since... todd rundgren my all time favorite music artist covers the song on several of his albums in a different style and does a great job!!
