The sad part is tat this song is like 50 yrs old and is still relevant today.
Very relevant.
More than ever.
I think about it all the time. It could be at every protest.
I don't know what happened to humanity from those anit-war protests, save the earth, peace love and brotherhood, women's rights, gay rights, civil rights ...we got lazy thinking things had changed.
@@itsizzi I often wonder how the generation of love turned into the anti-everything generation. Sad.
To get the whole Marvin Gaye experience...listen to the entire album "What's Goin' On". During the Vietnam War there were many artists writing and recording songs of protest against the war. Marvin Gaye told Berry Gordy his idea for a concept album based on social issues affecting the world. Gordy rejected the idea of Gaye going against 'type' due to his commercial success. Thankfully...Marvin Gaye didn't give in to the pressure from his label. The result is an album that is a musical masterpiece, gained critical success, and will be relevant for decades to come.
Well said.
Well said! One of the most beautiful albums ever.
YES!!!
This will ALWAYS be relevant!
Exactly
"trigger happy policing" all these years later and this is one thing that has not changed and its a damn damn shame
Agree!!! In three words.....
Kenosha WI - 7 shots to his back, was that really necessary?
Needs to STOP.. LIKE NOW..
Spot on!
One thing's changed...we now even have some black officers joining their white colleagues in their abuses of power. Funny what a badge (actual or metaphorical) can do to remove one's common sense and empathy. (See the Harvard prison experiments for an eye-opener on that count.)
It's crazy that this song, which came out in 1971, rings true today. Not just for the inner city, but for all parts of the country.
Geez I'm in Dublin, Ireland and watching this, just brought me back home. I'm from central africa (Congo)...geez I remember playing outside, no mobile phones, I'm late 70's baby and thinking of things I took for granted back then...man, I have tears...
@@jessey141 - Same here. I'm 52 and grew up in the 70's and 80's. I miss it.
Exactly. Sobering
We need to play this in today's times. we are telling the policeman that we are not going to stand for it at all. we are going to protest and. make a stand period
Well Said!
"What's going on" is one of the greatest albums of any genre from the twentieth century. Hell its one of the greatest works of art from any genre.
Amen 😉
Completely agree. It could have been written yesterday.
Please listen to what’s going on. We need to see your reaction! Love you! ❤️❤️❤️
I saw the motown documentary, marvin's creativity with whats going on is sick
It is the greatest album according to Rolling Stone
Marvin has some of the greatest music bro. Check out 'What's Going On?'
Sexual Healing!
Flying high one of my faves, and album here my dear.
I want to see the reaction of What's Going On in this time!
What's Going On? .. one of the best songs ever .. it's REAL
Agree. So relevant right NOW
Bill Withers Aint No Sunshine When She's Gone
😍😍😍
Yes! One of the best songs ever made!
Also, "Miss you" and "If you don't know me by now" - Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes (featuring Teddy Pendergrass)
I'm 60 years old, Marvin still gives my soul chills, melts me into a tiny puddle. Magnificent talent.
Marvin Gaye was a talented man and he died tragically at the hands of his own father. A loss to his country and to music.
😪
😔 ⚘ ❤
Marvin had so much pain in him. Especially after Tammy Terrell died. He knew his father, being a pastor, would kill him when he hit him.
@Defy9 Ordinary ok. Then educate me. Obviously your "implying" my information is inaccurate, so please, inform me...
Marvin had his demons ... it’s a tragedy but while he was alive he put out AMAZING music w/ Tammi Terell, Diana Ross and on his own... one of the greats in the Motown stable of artists ....
This was an album Marvin Gaye had to fight his label, “Motown” to record. Turned out to be a major award winner. Check out Curtis Mayfield’s “Super Fly” album especially, “Pusher Man”
Curtis mayfield superfly is 🔥🔥
What about Gil Scott Heron "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised"..because it won't. TH-camd, instagrammed, Facebooked, tweeted..but not televised in real time..
Curtis Mayfield is a must... along the line of Gaye's "Inner City Blues" is Curtis' "We People Who Are Darker Than Blue"... for something more uplifting try "Move On Up"
Big ups
His music is timeless and speaks of struggles we are still experiencing.
SO SO true.
OMG I never saw this Marvin Gaye video and understood the depth of meaning in his music. SO powerful and sad. The tears just started flowing. Thank you for watching it with us and sharing your honest, emotional reaction. I liked hearing your stories of growing up and your memories of playing with your friends. Some hard times you had- but the deep connection with your friends and family made for good memories that will always be with you.
Yes.
The Album "What's Going On" has to be included in any conversation of best of all time.
Pls support these young men and buy their merchandise to encourage them even more. These videos takes a lot of work to do and edit for us especially baby boomers
I bought a zippered hoodie yesterday. Can’t wait to wear it! Happy to support Tim and Fred and their dreams. Peace.
I agree
🥰
Yall awesome asf. Definitely inv to the blunt rotation
Please listen to at least one more "Marvin" song: "Brother Brother" Please you need to hear it!!!!!!!!!!!
That's called "What's Going On?" People already requested it.
What's happening brother? That song is precious.🌆😉
That's the best...
I agree with Darren. You HAVE to listening to the companion song, “What’s Going On?” It’s so amazing.
You picked a true classic with this one! Marvin Gaye's album "What's Going On" is easily one of the best ever. Seriously. You should listen to that from start to finish. And the ladies really love it too. But if it's singles you want, then check out these classics "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You)," "Ain't No Mountain High Enough," "Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing," "I Heard It Through the Grapevine," "Too Busy Thinking About My Baby," "Sunny," "What's Going On," "Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)," "Let's Get It On," "Got to Give It Up," "Sexual Healing" ...
Best, ever.......Yes!!!!!
Mike Caetano alright now! That’s what’s up!! I like love all those songs.
@@pamelachavis3258 Yes, girl! 👍👏 #MeToo! 😍 Love me some MARVIN! Have a blessed day! 🙏
Yessss
EVERY one of them great. ESPECIALLY his duets with Tammi Terell (who ALSO had a tragic end, which affected Marvin to the end of his days). Those duets to me are STILL some of the best music EVER created.
He had such a smooth sound. Try sleeping 3 in a bed. That was normal in my childhood. My youngest sister smashed up agains the wall, my hotbox sister in the middle keeping us warm as we had only 1 blanket even in winter w/o heat in the room & me hanging half on, half off the side of the bed. I can now sleep anywhere.
1 up front to kick the rumps 2nd in the middle to play the fiddle the 1 behind to drink the wine😜😜😜😂😂😂😍😍😍😍😍
"What's Going On" should be the next Marvin Gaye song you listen to.
‘Sad Wedding’ with Tammi
The Vietnam and Post Civil Rights Era. Marvin was the soundtrack for the time. He was so relevant and aware. I'm glad you're experiencing him. I play these tunes for me grandkids,
Marvin! Such a genius. What's so tragic is that this is 49 years old and everything is still relevant. What a shame... Glad to see you appreciate it, tho.
This is music that said something had a message. It touched your heart ❤️ I was 16 and now I am 66 and still love this music. I was marching for civil rights and human rights just like today 2020.
I was coming here to say you have to hear Marvin Gaye and specifically this song. Now listen to the entire album “What’s Goin’ On” ... on repeat. It’s relevant today - every issue. He was one of the first artists to write about the environment.
No body has mentioned issac Hayes So gooood
PLEASE take the time to review What’s Going On by Marvin Gaye. An absolute classic and a heartbreaker. It’s phenomenal. Just phenomenal.
Marvin Gaye, dont forget Distant Lover....dont know how old the twins are but some of these songs your father and mother probably were groovin to.
Oh, make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
Yea, it makes me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
For 3 years we lived above a fish and chip shop in a 1 bed apartment. 6 kids in the double bed mum and dad on the pull out bed in the lounge room.

You should check out Stevie Wonder's Living for the City
The finale has always put tears in my eyes. Marvin could not have done it better.
The song, with the images of poverty, brings a tear to my eye
Preach it !!! So refreshing to see young ones appreciate and SEE the changes
@@feliciajuliet1913 I aint that young unfortunately, 40 years old that is, and from what I see, nothing has really changed. Poverty is still around
this is how I feel when I listen to Marvin Gaye too. My heart just...is too full when I listen to him. He hit all of the things I had felt but could never express.
What's Going On", the greatest album ever made! Period!
Listening to your commentary, I am reminded why I became a subscriber - To donate to the Twins College Fund!
Amen! Feeling the same vibe. His awareness. 🤝🙏🏻
Word!!!
Definitely
Sweet ~ These Young Twins have heart ~ I love 'em ~ Since I can't adopt them LOL I'm down for contributing to their College Fund! They're smart, very sharp minded ~ And Sunday Dinner homemade Sicilian Style ~ Grab your appetites Twins ~
I’m a 59 year old white woman who was born and raised in New York City. Marvin was everything. Especially this song. I slept with 2 other siblings in my room growing up. Inner city living baby. PLEASE !!! Listen to “what’s going on” from Marvin. Best song you’ll ever hear. 🙏🏼
It really is sad. I grieve for today's youth. We established communities and friendships that are still alive today. Continue to be an example. Peace and Blessings
You have an amazing spirit, and ability to appreciate different genres. You’ve got a lot of soul kid ❤️
😍😍😍
He truly had the voice of an angel. Love this beautiful man and his music.
The entire What's Going On album by Marvin Gaye is a necessary listen!
It really struck me when you said about having a playful childhood escape back in the day because you're so right. And whilst we still have the same struggles today with poverty, racism, wars etc etc...we did still have the ethos of 'work with what you've got' and made the most of that. As hard as times were. I would not like to be a child or Y/A in these times here! Very insightful reaction/review.
When originally your brother the other twin I don't remember name sorry but I love you guys, When he went off to college I wasn't sure how it would be with just one but you've done amazing amazing I always love your reactions because you hold nothing back. I was a major Marvin Gaye fan I've been gay fan but I've never heard this song until the last year when I heard it in a movie. Between the song and the video it is one of the most powerful messages and songs of Marvin gay in my opinion
Your reaction made my heart hurt. I'm telling you we can feel your reaction. Love you boys.
Would like to see a compilation of Inner City Blues with This is America to demonstrate how little has changed in 50 years.
So happy you finally found Marvin Gaye. He was a national treasure. We lost him WAY too early in his career. His music is flawless. He is a poet like no other.
Baby
Inner City Blues was recorded 49 years ago 1971 and it is just a as relevant today 2020 as it was in 1971. Same shit different year.
I cried so hard when Marvin was killed. Sexual Healing was mine and my man's song.
I loved his music then and still do!
Me too, I remember the day like yesterday smh It was "APRIL FOOLS DAY" literally April 1, 1984 I couldn't believe it, thought everyone was pulling a April fools pranks smh So sad yet so fortunate to have all of his musical GEMS he left for us to remember him by and enjoy :)
Excellent choice and commentary. More Marvin Gaye, please.
See this era as young people and what we stood for is literally in our music catalog. It’s an historical catalog of the times . So much for that “ ok Boomer” insults .
Civil rights , human rights , ecology , anti war , equal rights , antiestablishmentarianism , affirmation action -all going on simultaneously. We didn’t have the net. We had to be active .
Ghettos were dreadful. It was changing times . Vietnam was going on .
Marvin was ahead of his time .
“ What’s Going On”
“ Mercy Mercy Me” by Marvin are as good and this music is relevant today .
SSShadow Wolf It is insulting and showing their ignorance when young people look down their noses at people from this generation and like to throw around the term “woke,” acting like they’re the first generation to be socially aware and have this attitude like we were not actively fighting for equality, environmentalism, peace, and an overall better world. Our generation did a whole hell of a lot more than most of the young people today who think putting “woke” hashtags on social media posts makes them an activists. Not trying to generalize all young people. I know some people in the 18-30 age range who walk it like they talk it, but the majority of the people actively involved in my community are in the 40+ age range. For the younger people here, not everyone born before 1980 was a bigot, racist, xenophobe, misogynist, homophobe, polluter, etc.
Pablo Zee Dont be insulted . I’m 64. I was in the streets as a youth fighting for change and I’ll die doing it .
I get what you mean though .
After the “ boomer “ nonsense took off it was clear the young had no clue as to why they have the freedoms they do .
All one need do is look at the catalog of music from our generation. It will tell them what we were doing -actively.
I was fortunate to have a family pro-humanity and Involved.
Us “ boomers “ were fighting for civil rights , human rights , equal rights , supported Caesar Chavez and migrant workers , wanted war to stop ( every generation in my family served from WW2-S.Korea -Vietnam -to the Mid East ) .
I’m not afraid to call out my govt when necessary .
I assure you -I am “ woke “.
Until people understand historical trauma and how to begin to heal and be honest many will remain in mental comas . I abhor injustice and hypocrisy.
I earned “ woke “. Not on a key board either . So did many others .
I’m the grand daughter of immigrants on one side and great grand daughter on the other . I’m Irish American. My husband was Native American.
I’m well versed in history . I can hold my own . I have older siblings and two younger . We cover that entire span .
I grew up in a globally diverse city and all of what’s going on is unacceptable.
Proud “ boomer “🔥✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
We made things happen . Now we have to keep the path clear and teach the young . It begins by knowing who you come from , how , their history and sacrifice and then knowing how this country really came to be -it’s not pretty and we have to be honest .
Thankfully I was taught very early in life . We are sadly devoid of “ culture “ here and intolerant of others . That needs to stop . Can’t know where we are going until we know where we have been .
@@ssshadowwolf6762 As a fellow baby boomer, I hear you!
Mary Margaret Moore ❤️✊🏼✊🏽✊🏿✊🏾☮️👈🏼
cynthia houser we disagree on politics but everything else we are 100%.
I’m poor too. The granddaughter of Irish immigrants. I remember marching for migrant workers back in the day .
This country’s is not one ethnicity. Remember “ viva la raza “ and fist signs every where ?
Marvin Gaye - "Distant Lover"
Color Me Badd - "Sex You Up"
Bless Marvin Gaye!!! He is IT!! Soul speaks to the heart of injustice. 🙏
This is off Gaye's 1971 album "What's Going On". He had been more of a pop singer with Motown before that. Motown head Berry Gordy didn't want to release the album - it broke from the Motown hit making formula and also addressed political issues. But Gaye insisted and today the album is considered one of the all-time greats (number 6 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time). Talk about a classic!
victorsixtythree I’d say Marvin was more of a soul singer than a pop singer.
Check out Trouble Man, it’s timeless . Marvin had the best voice in Motown imho
I can confidently say that we all reacted the same way the first time we heard Marvin sing this👑
Marvin Gaye, wow! “Heard it Through the Grapevine”. The best!!!
So tragic that we lost Marvin at a young age at the hands of his father. This song is so important now as it was back in the early 70's when it was released. You talk about soul this is the soul man with so many top hits. Try Sexual Healing, Mercy, Mercy Me and one of his best What's Going On.
Sexual Healing wasn't his song. It's wack. The lyrics are by biographer David Ritz or so he says...
I wouldn't waste anyone's time in it. Best deal is to listen to Marvin's Motown period.
Who cares who wrote it? The voice and the music were the best.
Still remember where I was when I heard on the radio that Marvin Gaye died.
Me to
Yup. Me too.
Tonya Wallace , what a voice he had.
Me too. I was 7 going on 8 years old. I was watching NBC Nightly News.
My mama thought it was a April fools joke.
Young brother , believe it. You just preach from the ❤️.
It was sad. Sadder that we're still here in many parts of our country...
You have such sincere reactions, I always love watching you. ❤️ I also love Marvin Gaye and am so glad to see you checking him out. This is my fav song by him. There is a book by the same name, “Makes Me Wanna Holler” by author Nathan McCall. He named the book after this song. Wow, what a story. If you have the chance, check it out, for sure!! It’s an easy read, yet riveting story about a black man’s life from childhood on. It’s riveting and I’m sure you’ll relate in many ways. 25 years later and it is still one of my top 10 favorite books. Riveting. Okay, a couple other great songs by Marvin Gaye include “Mercy, Mercy Me,” “Heard It Through The Grapevine,” and “What’s Going On.”
I wore out my copy of the original album so watching such a heartfelt response from a first time hearing of “Holler” by a new generation tears me up. In a good way. So beautiful to watch your “discovery” of part of the soundtrack of my younger days. I second the many suggestions for the whole album and was also thinking of Nathan McCall’s book (on my “best of” shelf). I super second your suggestion for such a great book along with his second one with a title tribute to MG: “What’s Going On”
I read Nathan McCall's book many years ago, and It was not until listening to this song and seeing the video that I was able to make the connection to the title of the book. And now you have confirmed my suspicions.
Wow! You really get it! We grew up in the streets of the neighborhoods playing.💜💪🏽👌🏽No one was trying to kill anyone, just playing and having fun. We all knew to run home and beat the streets from coming on. It was so much fun.
...and beat the street lights before they came on...😂. I remember those days, omg! Our parents wasn’t having it! Sometimes they did though.
Tim, you just claimed my heart...talking about how it makes you sad that the world isn't as innocent as it used to be.
I'm right there with you, my dear.
Sweetheart, you like story telling in songs. Pay close attention to his lyrics. Marvin Gaye, didn't have, just a beautiful voice. He told stories so well, that he could open your eyes, to everything going on. I cried when he was killed. I'm so impressed with your brother and you. Y'all are truly amazing! ❤
SO true. It will probably sink in more the more young people listen to the music.
@@lawrenceblack322 I agree with you! I find it very promising that younger generations are listening to him and others who educate us through their music.
SO true.
@@marlarae9313 Where are you from? I'm from Motown.
I'm originally from Texas but my home is 25 minutes outside of Pittsburgh. Wow, Lawrence! There's a ton of history in Detroit! I've been there a few times.
Now, this is the sexiest music on earth. If you have a special person in your life, you can never do better on a romantic evening than Marvin Gaye!
OMG YEAH I LOVED THIS ONE TOO TIM! Best song HANDS DOWN
I still remember the day I heard on the radio that Marvin was gone, like it was yesterday. He was amazing.
What's Going On is now the song of the century!
What's Going On is #1 on Rolling Stone's Greatest Albums of All Time list
One of the best Songs he ever did but not his most popular
One of my favorite tracks from this album - entire album is on my top 5 of all time. Peace 👏🏼
Marvin speaks to the soul
Marvin Gaye Will 4Everr Be An Icon Really A 🎶 Treasure And Truly Missed🙏🏾💙
God bless you and all who think like you.. there's so much more🌈
This song always brings years to my eyes because I hear the message but wonder if anyone else listens. Why can't we learn from these wise artist?
Marvin Gaye was one of the most gifted musicians of the past century. His success hid a tragic home life; his father was an abusive alcoholic preacher, who regularly sent Marvin's Mom to the hospital. One evening, in 1984, Marvin intervened as his father was going after his Mom, and his father shot him dead. I remember the day. RIP Marvin. He is singing with the angels.
Your reaction is so genuine and I think perfectly reflects what Marvin was going for, he had an important message! Thank you for highlighting this song.
Try some Curtis Mayfield ‘if there’s hell below’ and of course Marvin Gaye’s ‘what’s goin on’
Gotta try his “Come Get to This... and, anything by Curtis Mayfield - especially “Move on Up”
😍😍😍
I have been checking to see if you’ve listened to Marvin Gaye’s ‘What’s Going On’, if you haven’t listened please check it out. Thank’s
Another amazingly talented and beautiful artist taken too soon.
True to this day!!!
Dude this is the theme song to "FOUR BROTHERS" 🎬 Tyrese, Andre 3000, Mark Walberg... that whole soundtrack as well as the movie is fantastic!!
I literally just posted the same!! Gifted soundtrack.
This album is in my top 5 of all time. Too bad this song's message is still relevant 5 decades later! RIP the great Marvin Gaye
I could still cry listening to this song.
Musical genius, social poet....you have just discovered the WORD!!!!!! Hear it and spread it!!
It's curious to see a person get nostalgic for a song about how miserable life was. Even more curious that I kinda get it.
if you dig this go for some Bobby Womack - "Across 110th Street".
Hein Ruh Thank u from London;Been try to think of that song for ages but couldn’t remember it ,:Will tune into it later
Omg, please!
😍😍😍
Excellent suggestion! Great song.
Much love and blessings to you and your family
Marvin Gaye was so smooth.
Marvin Gaye is an all time favorite of mine and as many have said, It's a damn shame that what he sang about, particularly with Inner City Blues and Mercy Mercy Me are still relevant now in 2020. Makes me sad we keep repeating the same mistakes. However, this man's music uplifts my spirit too. He kept it real and continues to touch my soul with his beautiful voice and talent. You have to listen to Mercy Me next... PLEASE!!!!
The first time I heard this album was 20 years after it came out and it was just so relevant then, even more so in a lot of ways and listening to it again recently it's such a classic album and it really highlights that as much as things have changed at the same time we're still dealing with a lot of the same issues we were dealing with 20 years ago, 50 years ago.
This is the best of the Marvin Gaye bests! Perfect for a first exposure!
Marvin Gaye and other artists like him spoke to your Soul!! When they speak you can't help but answer!! You have to check out What's Going On next!
Your musical journey has just started, Keep reaching and your knowledge of this music will grow, The songs you will encounter will make you cry, happy mad, angry, all these emotions within you will be awaken! Keep listening! I'm proud of you,
Thank you for your perspective. Particularly touching.
One of Marvin's best songs
Marvin Gaye was a musical genius
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I feel what you’re saying.
one of the best! Marvin Gaye... :) He gave us reality and unfortunately had a tragic life. A very talented inspirational man. Truly.
Powerful Urban Realities - Mr. Gaye...our teacher, our genius ❤️
Marvin was soo talented! His father killed him in an argument, shot him dead! Listen to his duet with Tami Terrell called Ain't Nothing But The Real Thing Baby. He loved her and lost her at only 24yrs old. She had brain cancer. She was beautiful with a super voice.
Take it easy on yourself, young man. This is a tough sound, beautiful. But very hard. Thank you for tackling it!
No one said Barry white “you’ll never find! How about the O’Jays-“I Love Music,” Bobby McFerrin-“Don’t Worry be Happy!”
That's Lou Rawls ' You'll Never Find". 😊
It’s crazy to realize that what’s shown on “Inner City Blues” is better than today. I totally understand what he means. Damn. That cuts deep. ✌🏼💙
Never heard this one; but, as usual, Marvin Gaye delivers. Love the video clip, too. Perfect.
