I will be 70 next month, and I cried when I first heard this song; and it can still make me cry. WTF is going on? Too many others causing too many problems. Not enough love in the world for our brothers and sisters.
Mind your own business, @@BAKER22-l4u. Your opinion does not matter to me one whit. I will not tell you how I really feel about your comment right now, but you can kiss my Phat Ass.
I'm a 65 year old white woman who has listened to not just Marvin's music but all kinds my whole life. He will never be forgotten, and this song will always be needed.❤
29 years Old and I’m just sitting here wishing I could thank brother Marvin for making such a timeless classic that speaks throughout all the generations. I love you brother. And I thank you
I am a 78 yr young white man and will just say this song got me through two years in the Air Force in cold ass N Dakota in 70-72. It was an anthem at the time. had to have lived those times to really understand.
I am a 70 year old black woman, and never in a million years would I have ever thought I’d live to see this world in the shape it’s in today. I listened to this song over and over again when I was a teenager, always dreaming and having hope that things would get better with time, but it seems worse in so many ways. “Hate doesn’t disappear, it only hides.” And here we are!!! All I can say is, have mercy on us all Jesus! No matter what we see, hear or feel, God is still on the throne, and our only hope is in Him!
16 year old white male, i aint religious anymore and now i kinda think religion is the cause of what's going on. you think: who is making things the way they are in america? republicans who vote red oppress all of us whether it be our skin color, sexuality, gender, or whatnot. they use religion to justify most their hatred. i am all for having faith in a higher power, but i feel that it is being abused and hurting all of us. much love to you my friend.
This came out 52 years ago.....nothing has changed (except where the wars are taking place), and the message is every bit as relevant now as it was then. What a magnificent talent.
Remember, the main focus of this song is the black civil rights movement, not the veitnam war. The two just coincided and racist Americans at the time were too blind to see what he was truly singing about. Don't be like them
DG I agree, they try and solve the hate and racism by smashing windows and burning down buildings. And the funny thing is, they are just attacking random stores, people that did nothing to them, it’s a bunch of silly bs
Hubbi Hayyi say that until it’s your store that you make a living to provide for your family. what happens when you can’t make money to provide for you and your family? You have to suffer because some immature rioters throwing temper tantrums like a 2nd grader instead of dealing with the problem with an actual useful, and helpful solution. Cause let me tell you something, burning and looting do absolutely *nothing* to help black people, and if you are trying to get others to follow along in your movement, that’s not how it’s done. It all makes you guys look like a bunch of silly kids.
This is not only a beautiful song, but it also reveals the trials and tribulations that people were facing during the Vietnam era. What is so striking about this song is that his words are just as relevant today as they were then. It does truly seem that the more things change the more they stay the same
He was truly a legend in his own time. When I first heard this as a teen I thought wow man now this is music... Actually bought a tear to my eye which lots of music does...
@David Donald Dennison top 1% changes fluidly. people go in and out, its not always the same people, but I agree. Police brutality needs to be stopped. also the poor have definitely gotten richer, the evidence on that is clear.
@David Donald Dennison Do you propose communism, instead of capitalism? And what poor are you talking about? The poor in America? The poor in America are RICH compared to Africa or other third world countries. Sometimes they even make more in a day than a working person! And in your last sentence, do you support the riots?
I am 70 years old a Vietnam vet I had a lot of black friends over there I learn a lot from them Marvin Gaye was great he was one of the greatest singers I've ever heard this guy had it going on I'm telling you I love you guys take care
He died 36 years ago today. The saddest day there ever was. He left so much good music behind, but this album, this song was the best!!! In the 49 years since it was release it still speaks to the condition of this country and the world and touches the soul. Thank You Marvin Gaye!

Marvin’s call of “brother” was meant to include EVERYONE Bro. This was an “anti war” anthem that people of all stripes could get behind in asking what the hell our government was perpetuating on our nation. Very true, 50 years later and it’s the same Dem/Repub 🐴💩 choice as the keys of power continue to be dangled in front of our faces and keep us at odds with another. The govt runs a zero sum game. If we are warring with each other, they don’t have to worry about us discovering their mistreatment of us all and just keep up the status quo. I for one hope that ALL Americans of EVERY race, color, creed, religion, sex, etc can wake up and realize we’re being played. Time for us to stand against the power that has divided us for generations. And that power is in the hands of elitist politicians who don’t give a rat about us. ✟God Bless✟ brother. Peace.
I am 57 years old! I remember this song as a child. This song is more important today than in the 70s! The world is in a mess, wars and conflict everywhere! Things are worse now than ever before! What's Going On ! By Marvin Gaye!💙💙🙏🏾🙏🏾🤷🏾♀️😎
Things are lining up just like the Bible says. The rapture, and the people left behind will get the 7 year tribulation eventually. Good times will win in the end.
Read the book of REVELATION AND you may be able to better understand all that you see, hear and feeling in today's world 🙏🏽‼️ Then you will no longer have to question, "WHAT'S GOING ON"!!!??
1971 January... I bought this 8 track tape for my car..I was 19 years old and I had a brand new 1970 Blue Camaro 350...and I had a good job working for Bank of America 🇺🇸 in San Francisco.. I wore the what’s going on tape out...Its now February 2021 and every word from that album stands true for this day and Time...God help Us All... Amen 🙏🏾...
I asked my mom a month before she passed away from cancer what her favorite song was and she said this one. I listen to it now in her memory since her passing 2 months ago and what once was already an emotional song, now has become a tribute to the greatest woman ive ever known. She remembered the long hot summer of 67 in Detroit where she was from. If you dont know what that is, google it. She was in California during the Rodney King trial and the riots that followed. She knew this song by heart. The history that woman had seen, growing up and always being taught to treat people how you would want to be treated no matter their color. It made sense to me when she showed me this song. She had great taste especially growing up around motown.
This album is an absolute masterpiece. He didn't sing about sex or love or love making on this . Just social concepts . It put me in deep thought. We need more albums like this. This is a gem. Timeless classic.
Every time I listen to this classic by Marvin Gaye, it brings tears to my eyes. I was two years old when this came out back in 1971. And just look at our world today 🙏. R.I.P. my brother Marvin 👊
I was a senior in high school in 1971 and my daughter was born a year later. Man, does this song bring back memories of great music and the conflict in Vietnam. That era had some talented songwriters. Marvin was at the top of the list!!
Brings me right back into the early 70's. My husband and I would listen to the sounds, over and over. Brings chills, and love to my soul, long forgotten. RIP Marvin Gaye. This sound will remain classic, for eternity.
Marvin was gifted and a Angel from God.😇 He left his gifts for mankind and humanity. Gifts from his gifts to TEACH and Reach. Share and care. Make this world a better place ✨ Yes we can!!!🙏😇🦋❤🦉🌹
@@soniacabrera5793 I’m 71 yrs old I was so young and in Chicago going to college all five of us sibling having so much fun I have to listen to this song to take me back
I hate the fact we gotta give ourselves a color when we explaining ourselves as white or black. Marvin it’s no understanding still ✊🏽🥲 I love you all no matter what’s your nationality
I'm West African I heard Malvin when I was a teenager and now I have children I always tell them be careful children this song is still meaningful and I'm a living testimony.
Man as someone who’s was born way past Marvins time (26) I started listening to him heavy after my mom passed away. As he was a one of her favourite artists. I did’t really listen to him before. And 4 years later he’s been my most listened to artist on Spotify with like 150 total days listened. My friends can’t understand my obsession with this era of music. But His music really really changed my life and inspired me to pick myself up. Can not thank this man enough for all the albums and smoothness. Much Love
I'm one of the colors you mentioned and it does not matter which one, the song rings true and you are right that ALL of us could use a good listen to this message.
those colors are meaningless, how can you put people in a world of 200 nations and countless ethnicities into 4 boxes. It's not black, white, yellow and brown people who need to listen to this song. It's people who need to listen to it.
@@trident1125 your absolutely right I do understand your point. But I'm sure you understand what I meant . Hatred period is a awful . And a sin in God's eyes
Years ago there was a video on youtube with this song `What`s Going On` playing and in the background were different pictures and scenes of black men and white men working together showing respect and cooperation.
This probably is the greatest album of all time it’s just so true and resonates today just like it did 50 years ago, a timeless message of love and humanity. Plus the album just has perfect songs and it all rolls along so seamlessly. Marvin’s vocal deliveries throughout are just so passionate, you can really feel the soul he put into it
Misty it was more relevant back then. Back when this song was made, the Vietnam war was still happening and the police were worse. It was a time of a lot of hatred, ironic since before back in the 60’s, it was a time of love and peace. The hippy movement was at its all time highest, until certain events and ppl happened that damaged the movement and the wave finally crashed.
This is what's going on! From the beginning the government planted insurgents in every black neighborhood, usually your noisy weak-ass friends and some family members to convince you that you are not being manipulated so you can convince other's that everything is all right.
The musicianship behind this song is phenomenal. That bass and those strings send chills over me. Now, that is true talent, not to mention the background vocals. Marvin was a genius. He has blessed with musical talent.
Kwame Best I was privileged to have seen this man live more times than I can remember. He was a gentleman, a prayerful gentleman. A kind and gentle soul. I am truly blessed.
I was 27 years old when I learned the sad news that Marvin had died. Remember everyone, it was on Sunday evening. I got out my lps and played his 🎶. Then on Monday, I called out sick from work, in honor of him. I am 63 yrs old, and remember this like it was yesterday. We miss you Marvin😇
Remember my mother crying while washing dishes. I grew up not to far from his family home. I grew up in Baldwin Hills he lived west Adams neighborhood.
Oh, the Marvelous One..Today would have been Marvin's 77th birthday. (Apr.2,1939). And sadly, yesterday, April Fool's Day , was the 32nd anniversary of his murder. R.I.P my man. You were the best; the crowned King of the Motown stable, and one of the greatest singer/songwriter's of the 20th Century. Thank you for this SuperWhoopass.
This song aged like fine wine. War isn’t the answer and I wished war hungry politicians would hear this gem, especially with what’s going on today. Still relevant today!
War is not the answer. Damn right! "In the Year 2525 (Exordium & Terminus)". Yes, it will happen someday just like the dinosaurs. I can only hope the animals will be the only ones to survive. Animals only kill for survival, not ideology.
Thank you Lord for allowing me to live at a time when I was able to purchase this album when it came out and still enjoy it today. Thank you God that some younger people appreciate this down to earth cool man and embrace him. Marvin loved everybody. I do not have a record player today but I still have my 78's. Old School will know what 78's means.
I first heard this song when I was 10 years old and it really struck a raw nerve. It is so powerfully written and Marvin`s vocals are astonishing...and let`s admit it...the world he was singing about has not changed one bit has it?
No, it has "escalated" in fact but it will change (Revelation 11:18 & 21 :1-5) wait for it. Make a search for truth & "hold fast "!( 1 Thessalonians 5 :21)
What's Going On hits this old girl right in heart and soul. Takes me back on a time trip when I feel it's the 70s feeling all over again and I'm back to being a teenager. Gives me a natural high and pick me up when I feel the world has gone crazy. Still gives me good vibes and goosebumps just like when I heard it for the first time 53 years ago. The only song that makes me feel this way. Miss you Marvin.
sorry for your loss, I was 4 when my dad bought this album home back in 70' or so. he played the heck outta it. I'm lucky he's still here at 86. he taught me great music.
I was 16 when this song was released. It sent chills down my spine then... just as it still does today. This song and many like it contributed to the consciousness that got us out of the senseless Vietnam conflict. This was the point where I first started opening my eyes to the corruption that's out of control in this country today... the festering rot. Here's to hoping kids today can develop enough discipline to pull their eyes and mind away from the consuming social media and TRULY discover what life's about... the REAL stuff.
This is one of my grandfathers favorite songs him and his friends would listen to during the Vietnam war in which he was drafted at 18 years old. He just passed away 4 months ago and will remain my role model and guardian angel. Rest in peace grandpa
There's not too many songs that actually touch you emotionally but this is most definitely one of them. Moves me to the verge of tears each time its played
rolaholic I grew up on my mom's lap listening to this music way back when music was music I'm a vet tell me what music is if u know music a vet says hello I'm 56 yrs old
When I was a teenager in high school, my dad had all of his music, I would come home many days and lay in the floor with big earphones 🎧 on and listen to this whole album. I'll never forget where I was when I heard, when he had passed away it still hurts today 2023 loved this man and his Master Pieces. He is the real 👑 of R&B 4EVER 💕. Listening to it right now. Still BEAUTIFUL.
As a child listening to this song I could feel the depth of this song only in rhythm. As a black man I can now understand the depth of this song through my life journey.
I too listened to this as a teenager but I don’t think you have to be black to understand the depth of this song. This song is as relevant today as it was 50 years ago which is really sad as nothing has changed in the world.
Isn’t this the best?! Still rings true today. A profound song sung by a soulful gentleman. “Don’t punish me with brutality “. Love you Marvin. Right on. ✌🏻
What genius and so overlooked when this came out. The first I heard this song I knew it would last my lifetime and now forty-nine years later I still cry to hear this song.
Always fall into tears now when I hear this. Was the soundtrack of my life at the family BBQs while growing up in the 70s. And nahhhh, things haven't changed.😢
Was visiting LA last week and saw his star on the walk of fame. I had never been a primary listener of his music, but I know and appreciate the difference he made in the world. How much he meant to so many. Kinda like Bob Marley or Paul McCartney. Generational.
Got this album freshman year in college, 1969. We wore a hole in it. I was marching for civil rights, I still am. The song is more relevant now than ever!
Dear dragon meddler... You are very welcome. I also protested the Vietnam war from 69 to 73. I lost three good buddies. Still protesting also! Keep the faith!
I grew up listening to him. A white kid in the projects...The thing with this song is it's sad, angry and hopeful all at once. And it grooves on top of that! Marvin was amazing. One of the greatest records ever.
As a fellow white kid in the projects, I feel you. My stepdad was old school Motown and all this great music was always playing as I grew up. He was just all around soul. I can still remember eating ghetto burgers outside on a hot summer day listening to this shit as grease dripped from my hand. Ahhhh...memories...
I remember the first day this song hit the radio waves in NYC. I cried listening to Marvin sing. Some people of the world are doing things very wrong ... and they’re ruining it for the rest of us ... white, brown, yellow, red, Black Lives Matter too. We’re all in it together. WAKE UP!
Barry Gordy did not want Marvin to release this album. He fought against it because it was considered protest music. It was something Motown had never produced before to this level.
Do you know that Barry Gordy was discouraging him from writing the sociopolitical masterpiece?!?!?! But Marvin stuck to his guns,and wouldn't be dissuaded by Barry only wanting him to be a ladies man,and love singer for every record...God bless Marvin Gaye for this brilliance!!! 👏👏
And from what I’ve read Barry Gordy gave him a weekend to record the album with only a couple of days notice. Can you Imagine what it would have been had he been given more time!
@@juneharry4857 What it would have been June,what about the masterpiece that it is? Pressure busts pipes and creates Diamonds 💎 What a incredible Love emotion writer he was!!
Every time I sing this, I feel his spirit and the pain that he felt during this time. That lets me know that his spirit will never die. Rest on Marvin.
LOVE this and nobody sings it like he does. He makes this so beautifully powerful. The world should begin each new day playing this. Let's set a loving, compassionate and positive tone, let it ring through the entire world.
This is what got me through the Army in 69 / 71 and I met my wife of 44 years and we wish it was being played for the younger generation. This is true music!☘🍀
The album of the same name stands at No. 1 on Rolling Stone Magazine's new list, but this song is definitely one of the best songs ever. However you interpret it the message remains the same and that is to bring peace and understanding in the face of adversity.
I feel you. sometimes the greatest threats are in your own environment. Nipsey Hussle, Selena, Marvin etc .. Haters be hating .. how many of us have or had these kind of folks in our circle?
@@douglasdishroon1834 Yes you are right. I grew up in California in the 60s and 70s but this is the worst I have ever seen in my life. Pray for the babies save the babies save the children"

I will be 70 next month, and I cried when I first heard this song; and it can still make me cry. WTF is going on? Too many others causing too many problems. Not enough love in the world for our brothers and sisters.
too much greed and manipulation from people who only want power
If you're crying, you need to get therapy

Marvin’s call of “brother” was meant to include EVERYONE Bro. This was an “anti war” anthem that people of all stripes could get behind in asking what the hell our government was perpetuating on our nation. Very true, 50 years later and it’s the same Dem/Repub 🐴💩 choice as the keys of power continue to be dangled in front of our faces and keep us at odds with another. The govt runs a zero sum game.

I am 57 years old! I remember this song as a child. This song is more important today than in the 70s! The world is in a mess, wars and conflict everywhere! Things are worse now than ever before! What's Going On ! By Marvin Gaye!💙💙🙏🏾🙏🏾🤷🏾♀️😎
Just vote in November. If America is good, the world follows suit. We are the most powerful nation in the world!!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Things are lining up just like the Bible says. The rapture, and the people left behind will get the 7 year tribulation eventually. Good times will win in the end.
Read the book of REVELATION AND you may be able to better understand all that you see, hear and feeling in today's world 🙏🏽‼️ Then you will no longer have to question, "WHAT'S GOING ON"!!!??

I’m happy to read young people appreciate Marvin he is smiling in heaven
I’m young and I absolutely love Marvin. He motivates me every morning to be the best versión of myself everyday.
💯💯💯
In Marvin's lyrics, only love can conquer hate....
Truth is truth no matter when it was said you know
Always, he is a Legend!!
1971 January...
I bought this 8 track tape for my car..I was 19 years old and I had a brand new 1970 Blue Camaro 350...and I had a good job working for Bank of America 🇺🇸 in San Francisco..
I wore the what’s going on tape out...Its now February 2021 and every word from that album stands true for this day and Time...God help Us All...
Amen 🙏🏾...
Lucky you wish I had car like that only had a MGB but hell I still have it love it
SF the best city
Good sentiment but we need humans to realise that they are being dicks and not wait for god to intervene. Have a great day
👍🇨🇦
Has anyone in Europe had 8 track tape ? I know only just some musicians and some music studios. p.s. here after LPs and mini LP comes audio cassetes.
I asked my mom a month before she passed away from cancer what her favorite song was and she said this one. I listen to it now in her memory since her passing 2 months ago and what once was already an emotional song, now has become a tribute to the greatest woman ive ever known. She remembered the long hot summer of 67 in Detroit where she was from. If you dont know what that is, google it. She was in California during the Rodney King trial and the riots that followed. She knew this song by heart. The history that woman had seen, growing up and always being taught to treat people how you would want to be treated no matter their color. It made sense to me when she showed me this song. She had great taste especially growing up around motown.
So sorry for your loss ❤️
This album is an absolute masterpiece. He didn't sing about sex or love or love making on this . Just social concepts . It put me in deep thought. We need more albums like this. This is a gem. Timeless classic.
Um let's get it on sexual healing this happens to me a social concept song
It's cuz that album was from above as Marvin said God was writing this song
Marvin did sexual healing
50 years later and this album is still pure magic.
This kind of music transcends time. Always has. Always will....
@@jblcva THE BEST!!!
It is not an album it is a mass
I WAS 15 WHEN THIS CAME OUT - 67+ NOW
IT IS A MASTERPIECE IN MUSIC
I NEVER CAN STOP LISTENING TO IT
And 50 years later war is still going on.
Life is a circle....this song/message is still so relevant !!!
This song brings tears to my eyes.
Marvin sung from his soul.
He was a lovely man.
John & Marvin were martyrs, both were murdered, it's poetic injustice.
@Bon Scott and Marvin fought producers to get it released and stood his ground. In my opinion, a GREAT MAN.

I’d this tune. Love this music. Never dies ❤️❤️💯💯
.....einfach nur schön ich liebe ihn aber auch all seine Musik schade daß er im Himmel ist!!!❤❤❤
I'm just turned 70. Love this song
Every time I listen to this classic by Marvin Gaye, it brings tears to my eyes. I was two years old when this came out back in 1971. And just look at our world today 🙏. R.I.P. my brother Marvin 👊
I was a senior in high school in 1971 and my daughter was born a year later. Man, does this song bring back memories of great music and the conflict in Vietnam. That era had some talented songwriters. Marvin was at the top of the list!!
The world and the United States are massively screwed up.

"We don't need to escalate, You see, War is not the answer, For only love can conquer hate."

Brings me right back into the early 70's. My husband and I would listen to the sounds, over and over. Brings chills, and love to my soul, long forgotten. RIP Marvin Gaye. This sound will remain classic, for eternity.

True
Nailed it man..............................fucking nailed it.
Tameiks Brown.....I listen to this every day
Man as someone who’s was born way past Marvins time (26) I started listening to him heavy after my mom passed away. As he was a one of her favourite artists. I did’t really listen to him before. And 4 years later he’s been my most listened to artist on Spotify with like 150 total days listened. My friends can’t understand my obsession with this era of music. But His music really really changed my life and inspired me to pick myself up. Can not thank this man enough for all the albums and smoothness. Much Love
So please 🙏 to hear you say this words Marvin is great 😅
I think everyone in this country black white yellow and brown needs to hear this song. We as a people need to stop all this hatred against each other.
Lavert Jackson its about vietnam
I'm one of the colors you mentioned and it does not matter which one, the song rings true and you are right that ALL of us could use a good listen to this message.
those colors are meaningless, how can you put people in a world of 200 nations and countless ethnicities into 4 boxes.
It's not black, white, yellow and brown people who need to listen to this song. It's people who need to listen to it.
@@trident1125 your absolutely right I do understand your point. But I'm sure you understand what I meant . Hatred period is a awful . And a sin in God's eyes
Years ago there was a video on youtube with this song `What`s Going On` playing and in the background were different pictures and scenes of black men and white men working together showing respect and cooperation.
This probably is the greatest album of all time it’s just so true and resonates today just like it did 50 years ago, a timeless message of love and humanity. Plus the album just has perfect songs and it all rolls along so seamlessly. Marvin’s vocal deliveries throughout are just so passionate, you can really feel the soul he put into it
Lol
I'm sorry Marvin.... It's still going on
Misty it was more relevant back then. Back when this song was made, the Vietnam war was still happening and the police were worse. It was a time of a lot of hatred, ironic since before back in the 60’s, it was a time of love and peace. The hippy movement was at its all time highest, until certain events and ppl happened that damaged the movement and the wave finally crashed.
This is what's going on! From the beginning the government planted insurgents in every black neighborhood, usually your noisy weak-ass friends and some family members to convince you that you are not being manipulated so you can convince other's that everything is all right.
That's why it has to stop now is the time. We have suffered long enough!!
Andrea Scott........IKR!!!!!!!
This song should be the anthem for Black Lives Matter.
This old white man loves this song. It brings back memories for me too. It's not a black or white thing. Good music is good music.
Amen brother
Check out Teddy Swim's cover of this song.
😅
😮
70 White No doubt
SO SPOT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm an old white female and yet mowtown was SO much a part of my life - Marvin Gaye was so unbelievably talented!!!
The musicianship behind this song is phenomenal. That bass and those strings send chills over me. Now, that is true talent, not to mention the background vocals. Marvin was a genius. He has blessed with musical talent.
Take a listen to his " Detroit mix". I guess LA had to take the edge off .
True indeed, but its towards the ending that gives me chills
I meant it's towards the ending from the original version that gives me chills..
I was 5yrs when i first heard this tune
Last and least, WE NEED THE KINGDOM!!
Happy 80th Birthday Marvin, RIP! I’m still listening to this in 2019. It’s still true TODAY in this day in age!
for sure, nothings changed ,still we have our work cut out
You can say that again
Kwame Best I was privileged to have seen this man live more times than I can remember. He was a gentleman, a prayerful gentleman. A kind and gentle soul. I am truly blessed.
Love him
2020 god willin
I was 27 years old when I learned the sad news that Marvin had died. Remember everyone, it was on Sunday evening. I got out my lps and played his 🎶. Then on Monday, I called out sick from work, in honor of him. I am 63 yrs old, and remember this like it was yesterday. We miss you Marvin😇
I remember that day, too. I was heartbroken. I still am when I listen to him and remember all that could have been with him.
Remember my mother crying while washing dishes. I grew up not to far from his family home. I grew up in Baldwin Hills he lived west Adams neighborhood.
Yea not only died but murdered...by his own father. Horrific.
🥺sad
Me too
a truly fabulous, masterful song in every way. and so powerful. beauty that brings tears to my eyes. so needed in 2024
I was 21 when this came out 50 years ago. I am 71 now and 50 years later it's worst now. That's "What's Going On". Marvin, you're the man!
I was 14 when this came out in 71 and it's still great
Oh, the Marvelous One..Today would have been Marvin's 77th birthday. (Apr.2,1939). And sadly, yesterday, April Fool's Day , was the 32nd anniversary of his murder. R.I.P my man. You were the best; the crowned King of the Motown stable, and one of the greatest singer/songwriter's of the 20th Century. Thank you for this SuperWhoopass.
+Corea Kixx lol trying to say SuperWhoopass in a formal manner
+Corea Kixx What you know 'bout Motown,

This song aged like fine wine. War isn’t the answer and I wished war hungry politicians would hear this gem, especially with what’s going on today. Still relevant today!
War is not the answer. Damn right! "In the Year 2525 (Exordium & Terminus)". Yes, it will happen someday just like the dinosaurs. I can only hope the animals will be the only ones to survive. Animals only kill for survival, not ideology.
Especially today!
Please, no more Ukraine talk! I have Ukraine fatigue.
Ricky let's flood the net with it. I post it everywhere. Bless and stay safe.
Amen to that.
WHAT'S GOING ON? MARVIN GAYE CLASSIC THAT WILL NEVER GET OLD!❤😊
This was so far ahead of it's time. He told smokey Robinson God gave him the words it's 2023 and we could use this song now thank you Marvin Gaye 🙏🙏🙏🙏
The message ọf the song still resonates today."War is nọt the answer for only love can conquer hate .So profound. Rest in peace Marvin Gaye!
Thank you Lord for allowing me to live at a time when I was able to purchase this album when it came out and still enjoy it today. Thank you God that some younger people appreciate this down to earth cool man and embrace him. Marvin loved everybody. I do not have a record player today but I still have my 78's. Old School will know what 78's means.
Me too RG Givens...♥️
78's? This album came out in the 1940s? If it were recorded in the 70's it would be on 33 1/3 vinyl no 78
@@thomasdonohue1833 No it came out in 1971
RG Givens I could not, have said it any better than what you just did RG..

I first heard this song when I was 10 years old and it really struck a raw nerve. It is so powerfully written and Marvin`s vocals are astonishing...and let`s admit it...the world he was singing about has not changed one bit has it?
This is true
Sadly no, it hasn't.
I fear that Putin never heard this song.
I agree with you on that one.
No, it has "escalated" in fact but it will change (Revelation 11:18 & 21 :1-5) wait for it. Make a search for truth & "hold fast "!( 1 Thessalonians 5 :21)
What's Going On hits this old girl right in heart and soul. Takes me back on a time trip when I feel it's the 70s feeling all over again and I'm back to being a teenager. Gives me a natural high and pick me up when I feel the world has gone crazy.
Still gives me good vibes and goosebumps just like when I heard it for the first time 53 years ago.
The only song that makes me feel this way. Miss you Marvin.
ONCE AGAIN, THIS SONG CAN NOW APPLY TO THE TIMES WE LIVE IN. RIP MARVIN & YOUR MUSIC WILL ALWAYS BE TIMELESS.
Rip dad, you died today. You showed me what great music was!! Love you

sorry for your loss, I was 4 when my dad bought this album home back in 70' or so. he played the heck outta it. I'm lucky he's still here at 86. he taught me great music.
I was 16 when this song was released. It sent chills down my spine then... just as it still does today. This song and many like it contributed to the consciousness that got us out of the senseless Vietnam conflict. This was the point where I first started opening my eyes to the corruption that's out of control in this country today... the festering rot. Here's to hoping kids today can develop enough discipline to pull their eyes and mind away from the consuming social media and TRULY discover what life's about... the REAL stuff.
I'm 16 right now can you tell me what the real stuff is🙏
LOL you're dreaming man hahahaha. With all the Marxist indoctrination these kids receive in school now? Give me a break.
This is one of my grandfathers favorite songs him and his friends would listen to during the Vietnam war in which he was drafted at 18 years old. He just passed away 4 months ago and will remain my role model and guardian angel. Rest in peace grandpa
SO sorry......I BET HE WAS THE BEST PAP EVER......
@@gregbowser6104 rest easy, AMEN
Thanks for that. I love the wonderful commentary that great music brings about. RIP to your grandfather. I lost one of my favorite cousins just today.

When I was a teenager in high school, my dad had all of his music, I would come home many days and lay in the floor with big earphones 🎧 on and listen to this whole album. I'll never forget where I was when I heard, when he had passed away it still hurts today 2023 loved this man and his Master Pieces. He is the real 👑 of R&B 4EVER 💕. Listening to it right now. Still BEAUTIFUL.
Que lindo!
Yes Marvin Gaye is will always be Exceptional!
This was a prophetic song.
He's singing about things that had not even happened.
The brutha was amazing.
As a child listening to this song I could feel the depth of this song only in rhythm. As a black man I can now understand the depth of this song through my life journey.
I too listened to this as a teenager but I don’t think you have to be black to understand the depth of this song. This song is as relevant today as it was 50 years ago which is really sad as nothing has changed in the world.
lookin out on my balcony over my city of Minneapolis and listenin to this.
Wow. I pray you safe sweetheart. I can only imagine your feelings. Blessings 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

The situation in this world is what brought me here

Not only this one....how about Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)?

Even more so.
Unfortunately
more.....
Andrew Meil scary
Was visiting LA last week and saw his star on the walk of fame. I had never been a primary listener of his music, but I know and appreciate the difference he made in the world. How much he meant to so many. Kinda like Bob Marley or Paul McCartney. Generational.
I'm getting teary eyed listening to this song. R.I.P. Marvin Gaye, this beautiful song is still so relevant today.
Got this album freshman year in college, 1969. We wore a hole in it. I was marching for civil rights, I still am. The song is more relevant now than ever!
Thank you for your service to our country, Robin.
Dear dragon meddler... You are very welcome. I also protested the Vietnam war from 69 to 73. I lost three good buddies. Still protesting also! Keep the faith!
You were marching for civil rights in 1969 to this very day? Must have worn a hole in your shoes aswell
@@LordGreatBritain smart ass. Some of us are pretty damn serious about what's going on!!
The album came out in 1971.
I grew up listening to him. A white kid in the projects...The thing with this song is it's sad, angry and hopeful all at once. And it grooves on top of that! Marvin was amazing.
One of the greatest records ever.
Ditto! God Bless!🙏🌹
God Bless us all Xx
God bless you
As a fellow white kid in the projects, I feel you. My stepdad was old school Motown and all this great music was always playing as I grew up. He was just all around soul. I can still remember eating ghetto burgers outside on a hot summer day listening to this shit as grease dripped from my hand. Ahhhh...memories...
This song always resonates. I surely wish that he was not taken so soon. So much talent.
I remember the first day this song hit the radio waves in NYC. I cried listening to Marvin sing. Some people of the world are doing things very wrong ... and they’re ruining it for the rest of us ... white, brown, yellow, red, Black Lives Matter too. We’re all in it together. WAKE UP!
That's real shit
Barry Gordy did not want Marvin to release this album. He fought against it because it was considered protest music. It was something Motown had never produced before to this level.
Beautiful and true , from the heart !
What a beautiful voice RIP
All lives matter and we're in this together.
Do you know that Barry Gordy was discouraging him from writing the sociopolitical masterpiece?!?!?! But Marvin stuck to his guns,and wouldn't be dissuaded by Barry only wanting him to be a ladies man,and love singer for every record...God bless Marvin Gaye for this brilliance!!! 👏👏
Tragic!! Live song only gets is to earth what about how to survive and thrive🤨 Barry must be all bout the money!
Yep
And from what I’ve read Barry Gordy gave him a weekend to record the album with only a couple of days notice. Can you Imagine what it would have been had he been given more time!
@@juneharry4857 What it would have been June,what about the masterpiece that it is? Pressure busts pipes and creates Diamonds 💎
What a incredible Love emotion writer he was!!
Don’t misunderstand I also believe this is his masterpiece! To be done in such a short amount of time though says something about his determination.
Every time I sing this, I feel his spirit and the pain that he felt during this time. That lets me know that his spirit will never die. Rest on Marvin.
Im 33 and i absolutely love this song, and the message. My parents, grandparents, uncle's & aunties always played this song when i was growing up.
This song is needed now more than ever
You people finally woke up?, This was 1970s who ran your country back then?
Amen.
Amen!
Amen
Amen!!!!
A message that's relevant as ever.
exactly my thoughts
Now more than ever.
truly, truly timeless. war is not the answer
это точно.
so true
LOVE this and nobody sings it like he does. He makes this so beautifully powerful. The world should begin each new day playing this. Let's set a loving, compassionate and positive tone, let it ring through the entire world.
This is what got me through the Army in 69 / 71 and I met my wife of 44 years and we wish it was being played for the younger generation. This is true music!☘🍀
A perfect time for this song to be hitting the number one spot on The Rolling Stone’s list.
Miguel Angel Right on.....
The album of the same name stands at No. 1 on Rolling Stone Magazine's new list, but this song is definitely one of the best songs ever. However you interpret it the message remains the same and that is to bring peace and understanding in the face of adversity.
About time. The best album ever. What was Berry Gordy thinking not wanting to release it!
It’s not the song it’s the album
Astral the message is obviously extremely important and relevant but the music is not special.
"Father, father, we don't need to escalate"
Shame that Marvin's own father didn't take that to heart.
I feel you. sometimes the greatest threats are in your own environment. Nipsey Hussle, Selena, Marvin etc .. Haters be hating .. how many of us have or had these kind of folks in our circle?
