Marvin Gaye was everything. Every bit as big a loss to music as Hendrix, Joplin, Morrison, Lennon.....any of them. A true giant. Have you ever checked out Al Green? Super smooth soul. Look him up, you'll like I think.
Brotha Jay us old heads (I'm 52 going on 53) just want to let the future generations know about being romantic even if they don't see it these days. Young bro go with your spirit and the truth will be known to you. Do your thang! We are watchin'. 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 Maybe instead of asking "Whatchu know about that" we should be askin' " You like that young blood?" Peace and love my brotha. We invented music.
Perfect reaction! You get it. Even with all the good singers out today, where are the artist that can make a heart-felt soulful record let lone a whole album full of hits(?)
Marvin Gaye's music was so captivating and I can't say enough about how this dude's lyrics were on point. The world needs to play his track "What's Going On" in the streets and across our country today!! Brang em togetha Marvin!!!!!!!!!!!!
“What’s Going On” - Still in my major rotation and the #1 Album of Rolling Stone’s Top 500 Albums!! Start to finish, it’s a total concept, a party with a conscience. And each track is related by groove. And the spoken word samples bring the conversation to your living room. Genius soul food. Lol 🤪
I started listen to Marvin in the 1970s when I was a teenager he's the baddest dude somebody you should check out is Jay Blackfoot I saw him and his wife in concert they were great you have a good day
All right brotha! I'm so glad to have another reaction channel to look forward to that does both Rock AND Soul. We need to keep this music alive. That beautiful 70s era that I grew up with that had Marvin Gaye, Steely Dan and Bob Marley and so much great music. Just subscribed to your channel and look forward to seeing Rock and Soul reactions. Keep doing what you do my man! Stuff like Marvin Gaye comes from our heritage of Blues, and Gospel! Peace!
I was listening to Marvin Gaye back when he was a Motown artist in the 60s with songs like How Sweet It Is, Hitchhike and Can I Get a Witness. His cover of I Heard it Through the Grapevine was one of the best versions next to Gladys Knight & the Pips version.
Oh damn, my fav MG song, too. Man oh man, the rehearsal version with Marvin on the sofa, oohwee - stripped back, intimate, and raw...gets me right there. Wish there was a higher res version. Gordon Banks on guitar, Doni Hagan on drums, but seeing a baby-faced Deon Estus on bass is just the icing on the cake. th-cam.com/video/xdDSqxVyyyY/w-d-xo.html
Everything Marvin touched turned to "GOLD !" The "I Want You" album sold millions. There were many HITS on this album. This is a treasured item. Try : The Courtship - It's The Same Old Love David Ruffin - Walk Away From Love G. C. Cameron - Let Me Down Easy Dennis Edwards - AMANDA
Any and every time I hear Marvin, I think about Saturday mornings and my Mom singing and dancing while she cleaned the house. Same records every Saturday, same sequence. She’s a huge Diana Ross fan & when the ‘My Mistake’ duet with Marvin came on, it was on. Moms singing Ms. Ross’ part and battling Marvin always made me smile. When the SOS Band and ‘Take Your Time’ came on, shit........everybody was dancing
As a born and raised Detroit guy, I am so proud to say MG was not only his initials but it also stands for Motown Gem in my eyes. Wait till you hear "Mercy Mercy Me" and "Let's Get It On", and more!
Everything in this song is percussion, even Marvin's vocals. Great song, but I think Troubled Man gives it a run for the money. Great channel, clear you love music.
I agree with u bro..don't understand why so many reactors seem to Intentionally stay away from R@b..check out Reactor " just jammin".. he plays old schools r @ b only..love him..it's a growing channel..( and you too of course)..one love
Try Marvin's version of the Star Spangled Banner at the 1983/84 NBA All Star game. The most American soulful version of that song ever sang. It was controversial at the time because he sang it with soul i loved it give it a listen.
IF YOU LOVE OLD SCHOOL MUSIC THEN GO TO @t HE IS A LIVING LEGEND ALSO! AND HE WAS BEST FRIENDS WITH Marvin Gaye YOU CAN ALSO LOOK FOR Jerry Bell ON TH-cam. HE WAS ONE OF MARVIN'S BACKUP SINGERS AS WELL. THE BACKGROUND VOCALS YOU ARE HEARING IS ALSO MARVIN.
Rent the movie “Standing In the Shadows of Motown.” All about the Motown Records house band, which came to be known as the Funk Brothers. They played on all the songs recorded at Motown Records, including this.
Oh my goodness! That movie made me cry like a baby at the end-- for ALL the loss-- of the musicians who died too early, who should STILL be here. I've attempted to find it off and on since first seeing it.
Thank you, I don't have On Demand and like I said, ever since I saw it, I've been trying to find it at Walmart and even google it as to where I can get it, but no worry--im on it again. Thanks for reminding me.
Seeing this young mans reaction to listening to this warms my soul
One of the greatest voices in history!! MAKE ME WANNA HOLLER!!!!!

My fave from Marvin, from his many, Many, MANY others.
Marvin Gaye, the Master of Smooth. So influential and gone too soon.❤
Perfect reaction! You get it. Even with all the good singers out today, where are the artist that can make a heart-felt soulful record let lone a whole album full of hits(?)
My personal favorite.
"Let's Get It On" and "Sexual Healing" are classics, but I dunno...the production, Marvin's vocal layering...I feel this one in my SOUL.
MARVIN TAKES YOU INTO A MUSICAL MAGICAL ZONE THAT MAKES YOU FEEL SO BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO PARTAKE OF IT ALL!
Marvin Gaye's music was so captivating and I can't say enough about how this dude's lyrics were on point. The world needs to play his track "What's Going On" in the streets and across our country today!!
Brang em togetha Marvin!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was and always will be a special man.....I don't know what else could be said.
Drummers like Gaye seem to know how to put everything together musically with the vocals. The way he died was sad; killed by his own father.
LOVE Marvin!

Marvin Gaye: Legend, Icon, Soul Music Trailblazer, R&B Pioneer, and one of the true R&B GOATS!!
Love, love, love Marvin! Emotion captured through that voice. Vulnerable was a great posthumous album.
Couples only please, couples only. Guess how many laps I did around the roller rink to this song? I have no clue either. Let’s say a lot!!
Marvin is THE Man! Music from Motown in the 60s and early 70s is beyond great.
Marvin was for me the first singer that ever motivated me to listen beyond the music and hear the message.
I agree, not enough old soul! This was my favourite Marvin album! When it came out I listened to it over and over and over....👍🎶🎸
What’s Goin On is Marvin’s most important album but I Want You is his best in my opinion
Agree 100%...Been saying that for years..
I don't know how but I had never heard this song until I saw Broken Flowers with Bill Murray, but I'm glad I did because it is amazing!!
Marvin was the best thing to come out of Motown. Check out his single “That’s the Way Love Is.”
No. He was great, but he was 2nd to Stevie.
I started listen to Marvin in the 1970s when I was a teenager he's the baddest dude somebody you should check out is Jay Blackfoot I saw him and his wife in concert they were great you have a good day
Yes. Teach the children! Where is the Marvin Gaye love and reactions?!! Thank you!
This one was in heavy rotation from me back in the day. Masterpiece. How 'bout some "Inner City Blues"?
YES!!!
Aaaahhhh!
Distant Lover is my favorite Marvin song!! Thanks Jay!!
Yes GOD!!!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽❤️🔥💯I love your reaction
Marvin was one of a kind, an unforgettable legend.
I love Marvin. All the singers back then were legendary.One of a kind
Hi from San Diego, love your reactions. Please introduce Bob Seger's music. It's a rabbit hole. Start with "Turn the Page ". ♥️♥️
One of my favorite songs! So haunting and passionate
60’s & 70’s r&b is my favorite. I listen to marvin all the time. Him & Stevie are my top.
ONE OF THE GREATEST VOCAL ARTISTS THE GRACED THIS PLANET!

One of my all time favs...I KNOW HIS SONG CATALOG FORWARDS AND BACK
My brother Marvin Gaye has some of the best music PERIOD! React to "Distant Lover" and "After the Dance"
Marvin was a musical genius!
I loved how he sang all the vocals.
I was listening to Marvin Gaye back when he was a Motown artist in the 60s with songs like How Sweet It Is, Hitchhike and Can I Get a Witness. His cover of I Heard it Through the Grapevine was one of the best versions next to Gladys Knight & the Pips version.
one of his best....from an artist who has TONS of great shit!! marvin is as good as soul music gets!
Best album cover of all time as well as being great music
One of the smoothest, sexy, sensual, soulful songs in existence. Mind blowing
He wrote this song for a girl he fell in love with he met on soul train..
Christopher cross SAILING 🤘🏻😎
Oh damn, my fav MG song, too. Man oh man, the rehearsal version with Marvin on the sofa, oohwee - stripped back, intimate, and raw...gets me right there. Wish there was a higher res version.

That version is the best. It's so effortless for Marvin, and it sounds so damn good.
On your playlist forever because you have style and class
This is your heritage little brother. Learn all about it because this is part of "YOUR" culture.
Everything Marvin touched turned to "GOLD !" The "I Want You" album sold millions. There were many HITS on this album. This is a treasured item.
Try : The Courtship - It's The Same Old Love
David Ruffin - Walk Away From Love
G. C. Cameron - Let Me Down Easy
Dennis Edwards - AMANDA

Yes sir real talk. Man when I was on the phone kicking it back in the day this was playing in the background. Old G!
Yes!! ♥ Please review him singing the National Anthem 80's version. He was the first to jazz it up here in the states. RIP'aradise Mr. Gaye
My top 3 are " what's going on " " Come get to this " " Mercy Mercy Me " ❤️❤️❤️
Marvin is No 1 ❤️
Classic he actually sings 3 parts in this song amazing
As a born and raised Detroit guy, I am so proud to say MG was not only his initials but it also stands for Motown Gem in my eyes. Wait till you hear "Mercy Mercy Me" and "Let's Get It On", and more!
It fits the times.....Marvin's What's Going On......
(A very, very, very late comment.)
Yeah that cut by Marvin Gaye is "Hennessy" for your ears!
Nice reaction young bro! ✌️😎
This version is great, but you've got to see the rehearsal video of this song.
Shout out to our ancestors !!! 💪🏾💯💪🏾💯💪🏾💯💪🏾💯💪🏾

Straight grooving!!!! Thanks.
A true master right here
Check out "Trouble man" I promise you gon like it.
You have to react to or just check out the "I Want You" rehearsal. He's singing live while lying on a couch. Incredible!!!
We LOVED Marvin in the 70s!! Whats wrong with being in your feelings? We need more feelings these days, more heart
People want to be so hard now and therefore out of touch with themselves. This type of music is exactly what is needed right now.
Steely Dan song "Don't Take Me Alive" stuck in my head. Love Marvin 💜💜
A real sexy one by Marvin is (let's get it on).dam he can sang that song.👍💞💞💞
Everything in this song is percussion, even Marvin's vocals. Great song, but I think Troubled Man gives it a run for the money. Great channel, clear you love music.
Well DONE Jay!!!!!
Real talk 😉 happy
I agree with u bro..don't understand why so many reactors seem to Intentionally stay away from R@b..check out Reactor " just jammin".. he plays old schools r @ b only..love him..it's a growing channel..( and you too of course)..one love
THERE WAS "NOTHING" ABSOLUTELY "NOTHING" FAKE ABOUT MARVIN GAYE. HE ALSO LOVED THE LORD AND PEOPLE!
Try Marvin's version of the Star Spangled Banner at the 1983/84 NBA All Star game. The most American soulful version of that song ever sang. It was controversial at the time because he sang it with soul i loved it give it a listen.
I wanted a Jackson 5 album for Christmas thats all I wanted
Like All Green, Barry White,The Ojays
Inner City Blues Gotta React To That
She’s So Heavy by the Beetles started doom / stoner rock
IF YOU LOVE OLD SCHOOL MUSIC THEN GO TO @t HE IS A LIVING LEGEND ALSO! AND HE WAS BEST FRIENDS WITH Marvin Gaye YOU CAN ALSO LOOK FOR Jerry Bell ON TH-cam. HE WAS ONE OF MARVIN'S BACKUP SINGERS AS WELL. THE BACKGROUND VOCALS YOU ARE HEARING IS ALSO MARVIN.
after the dance
If you start a Motown channel I’ll be there is a minute. God how I miss this music today. Nothing like it. 😃🔥👌🔥🔥🔥🔥

@@margaretwilliams7658 - Most cable TV systems make it available On Demand. And I'm sure you can buy it on DVD (does anybody buy DVDs anymore?).
Thank you, I don't have On Demand and like I said, ever since I saw it, I've been trying to find it at Walmart and even google it as to where I can get it, but no worry--im on it again. Thanks for reminding me.
@@margaretwilliams7658 - Again, just trying to be helpful. I’d bet you’d be able to find the DVD on Amazon or eBay if you really want a copy.
I'll find it THIS time and yes, I do have a new tv I haven't used yet, just so I can play DVDs! 🤣😅
Shoorah shoorah by betty wright now thats a tune
React to Elvis Costello "I want you". It's a different song than this, Elvis' own song. I love it. It's about jealousy.
Say that!
You're just an old soul like me. Can I ask you......and if not its totally cool....the painting you keep. What's her meaning?
It's in one of his vids...
gotta watch'm all!😎
🤘🏻😎
If you haven't you should listen to the acapella version, it lowkey might be better but its definitely not worse, its just different in a good way
No dislikes!
Please react to☺
Amanrath-fearless
It's sad that you said your friends aren't down with this and give you shade for loving it. How could ANYBODY not like this?
Maybe you need new friends. I side eye folks who ain't down with the oldies, no matter how young they are.
Try Distant Lover
I hope you listen to TLC hands up and blaque I do
If you can will you please play( try me) by. James Brown. No one will do it. Thank you 👍😍😍😍
Otis Redding
