The minor key of the music makes it hit differently too - it almost conveys a desperation and longing that just hits the soul like a ton of bricks. If my ears aren't failing me, I think Marvin's original song was in Dmaj, but this song is B minor (relative musical keys that have the same key signature, but a different order).
Whenever you cut to the singer of FFDP he looks like he's waiting for his part to come in and is getting increasingly upset that Marvin just keeps singing over him.
At first I thought, "No, this doesn't quite work." About 30 seconds in, I thought, "Oh, OK. This is clever." A minute in, I literally said, "Wow" out loud. By the end I was sure it was pure genius.
@@cluebcke It saved it for sure, on the metal side of things. I would argue that FFDP is trash on their own, but apparently a decent backing band for other talent. I used to think they were just trash. Thanks, Bill McClintock! lol
Bill teaches us how all forms of music are deeply connected. He is a true master of synthesizing something new from something that already exists. He deserves our thanks and admiration.
All forms of modern Western popular music, you mean? Metal and soul are really just two branches of the same tree with its roots in early blues music. Now I wouldn't be surprised at all if Bill sometimes mashed together traditional Chinese music and, say, Sami yoik, but so far he has only played around with Western popular music with their roots in Blues, and those roots really aren't even that deep yet. Go back 100 years, and pretty much all you had was blues and jazz. One should understand that what we in the West perceive as "music" is really just a tiny, tiny slice of what music actually is worldwide.
You're standing on the shoulders of giants here Bill, and yet you've somehow created something *more* than the sum of these mighty parts. An absolutely monumental track.
This is my favorite of all Bill's posted work. This free's my soul from my body. Like being projected into a small beach front property, isolated for a while, where two people can be alone together while the sun goes down.
What the hell!? Why is this not huge? This is probably one of the best ones that mentally disturbed but brilliant Bill McLintock has mashed yet! It sounds "factory"!
Marvin Gaye was a heavy metal singer. He was backed by Five Finger Death Punch and Black Sabbath. Bill,McClintock is the King of the Mashups. Nobody will ever steal his crown. This is a masterful combination!
Their first album was solid. After that they became industry whores and sold out to the mainstream dribble. Same thing happened to Metallica. Anything after and justice for all is mainstream trash. \m/
You know something? I usually watch your amazing videos for the fun and laughter of listening to two tracks that shouldn't be seen together in public! I wasn't prepared to sit here tonight and find myself engrossed, because this mashup sounded so damn great that I would literally buy this as a single and listen to it over and over!! Well done Bill, you truly are a genius!
This has unintentionally placated the gods of ancient Sumer and Babylon in the same manner as the Lamentation Rites. You have saved humanity with this song Mr. McClintock
I have this mash-up on repeat when I go to work and back on my bicycle. You know when it is that good when you completely forget the original songs and believe 100% that this is an original song!
Christ Bill, you NEVER disappoint. It'd be one thing if you only made bangers out of a couple song mashups but at this point you are a goddamn sorcerer.
Another masterpiece. You're so good at making me forget both songs in their original form. I'm a heavy metal drummer that loves Marvin Gaye. This is my new 'let's get it on' from now on. Great work!
What a national, actually no, global treasure Bill McClintock is, good lord. Five finger death punch passed me by, never got into them, I was blown away at how much I loved the composition of this song, so went and listened to the original track, and had that been my first impression of the song I would have thought, the instrumentation is great but the vocals are sub par and would have never gave it a second thought. That’s why bill is such a genius, hearing Marvin’s incredible vocals over this and how well it fits with the music, I was paying so much attention to the composition and I was astounded at how much I loved it. Great riffs, FANTASTIC drumming throughout the song, the drumming was the biggest highlight for me, I don’t know if I’ll ever give Five Finger Death Punch a fair shot but thoroughly impressed but the composition of this song, and had I just heard the original song I would’ve been too distracted but the vocals to really pay attention to it.
Bill, some of your tracks make me chuckle because of your deliberate intent to amuse and delight…but this one gave me goosebumps. So good, a powerhouse of soul metal. Incredible.
Was hooked from the first sung note, and then Tony's solo just sent me right over the edge. I would BUY this album. Not record from a friend, not download it, BUY!! and I haven't bought an album in 20 years!!!!!
I know a good portion of Bill's mashups involved artists representing disparate genres but within the same era. These two are at least THREE DECADES APART and Bill still knocked this out the park!!!
This is upon your best ever. I know every line of Marvins vocals and I appreciate how much you tweaked it to make it fit even better. Utterly brilliant!
I want this on vinyl with no label and no explanation, and to have people hear it with no expectations. Blow their minds when or if it finally registers.
I keep coming back to this, I think it's the best thing Bill's done. There are other tracks that are more fun, such as Rick James Dio, but I don't think any are as perfectly matched, when they shouldn't be, as this one.
Yet another masterpiece, sir. Something I've discovered when you combine legendary soul/R&B singers with hard rock/metal, you should definitively that people like Marvin Gaye, David Ruffin, Aretha Franklin, etc. could have sung any genre and absolutely hit it out of the park - just as you hit this one out of the park.
Right? I've seen them a couple of times live and just can't stand them or their fans. Both times were at a festival so I had to endure it for the next act.
This is done so well, it begs the question, would Marvin Gaye collaborate with so many different genres given how far ahead of his time he was in his music catalog.
I'm not familiar with too many FFDP songs, including this one. So what this is to me is the best best metal cover of a Marvin Gaye song I've ever heard. Like I want to put this on a playlist.
Bill - I've been a subscriber since "Heard It Round and Round the Grapevine," and I'm upset... because it made me like 5FDP. 5 years and your evil laboratory is still crankin out absolute genius. I feel like I've never heard quite so much nuance in Marvin's vocal performance, and I've heard Lets' Get It On hundreds of times
Ok, friend. I want to strongly dislike the five finger death punch and now.... Now now,. We are here. Been with Mr Mc and this .ay be one of the best. Still jamming to that judgement (sic) night soundtrack ova hea. Love from RI ⚓
This song is stuck on my playlist. I keep listening to it it but it won't go away! All you did was make me really want to hear Marvin Gaye fronting Sabbath!
Awww man the emotions, the smooth, rich, classic vocals backed up by the metal guitars and base, the timeless message of "hey baby, let's get it on", the fierce, groovy, baby-making driving force behind generations. Man this is good work I can't stop listening to it.
I'm saving this as a serious song to two of my playlists. And no I'm not joking. I cannot believe how amazing this is. Somebody needs to create a band that combines the genres deep soulful vocals with powerful music behind it like this is like a force of nature, we need this and not accidentally. I am literally blown away by the power of this. Who's with me?
I appreciate both this great mashup and the fact that no one (at least at the top of comment section) suggested alternative title with "five fingers" and "gay(e)" combined in a wrong way :D
I imagine getting the rights and samples cleared would be a logistical and financial nightmare, but I'd ride hard to make that happen. Imagine having these tracks on vinyl! It might make it easier if Bill designated a worthy charity as the recipient of any profits.
Bill was already the master of Soul Metal, but today he invented Motowncore.
A core that we didn't know we needed until now
I apologize in advance ...but I will be stealing that word from you..."motowncore"🤘🏾
Soul Core?
@SylviusTheMad ... Re: 'Master Of Soul Metal' .... 'Motowncore' .... Love the phrase/word creations! ❤❤ Well done sir!
Dude, I grew up around good musicians and I'm telling you this is very good and somehow flew right over everyone's head.Marvin needs MORE combos.
The fact that the enthusiasm in his voice is an equal match to heavy metal.
The minor key of the music makes it hit differently too - it almost conveys a desperation and longing that just hits the soul like a ton of bricks. If my ears aren't failing me, I think Marvin's original song was in Dmaj, but this song is B minor (relative musical keys that have the same key signature, but a different order).
This confirms how good soul metal is
So that's the name of the thing that I love
It's so good! Hits all the switches and brings the feels.
That's what I was thinking! Soul metal!
It has been coined. I like it.
The band In This Moment does this already
Whenever you cut to the singer of FFDP he looks like he's waiting for his part to come in and is getting increasingly upset that Marvin just keeps singing over him.
The most aggressive love making session ever.
I'm serious. Sore as hell in the morning, but with no regrets.

By the end I was sure it was pure genius.
Two very different kind of dads can now rock out in peaceful harmony
I am both, and I'm not even a dad!🤣
Boomer dad and divorced dad.
Especially the dad that killed Marvin
McClintock is unifying and yacht rocking fathers everywhere
@@dystopian..get fucked!
Got to say this might be your best "serious" one. Dam he had an awesome voice.
The integration of the Black Sabbath solo is just the icing on top, pure genius
It was so smooth It took me a good few seconds to realize what happened

@@BlueRadley-o0o0o 100% on all counts
Yea, that was cool.

The layers, the harmony, the tonal shifts.....it's transcendent.
Bill teaches us how all forms of music are deeply connected. He is a true master of synthesizing something new from something that already exists. He deserves our thanks and admiration.
Duke Ellington said it best: there's only two kinds of music, good music and the other kind.
@@joshathanas1417Frank Zappa said "there's music for people who love music, then music for people who do not."

The Iron Man solo is almost unrecognizable and is pure genius how well it works here!
You're standing on the shoulders of giants here Bill, and yet you've somehow created something *more* than the sum of these mighty parts. An absolutely monumental track.
My thoughts exactly
Right, it’s mind blowing how well two amazing pieces can work like this
@@lissakaye6103. The solo from Iron Man is somehow almost unrecognizable in this new context, yet perfect for this song!
Amen
This is so good it’s ridiculous
This is not just, legit, a good song ... this is a beautiful song!
I wish the damn record companies would let Uncle Bill release a soul metal album. We need this in the world.
This is to show the world music is a universal...
This could be a genre.. We just need someone to punch through! Bill you are such a beast!
R&R&B?
Soul Metal
@@MattJVids This, it's pretty much canon at this point in Bill lore.
Seriously. I was just thinking that rap samples all the time. Lets just make mashups a buyable music
"Rusted Soul" is an Atlanta band that has had this song for over a decade. Check out the album "13"
This is my favorite of all Bill's posted work. This free's my soul from my body. Like being projected into a small beach front property, isolated for a while, where two people can be alone together while the sun goes down.
What the hell!? Why is this not huge? This is probably one of the best ones that mentally disturbed but brilliant Bill McLintock has mashed yet! It sounds "factory"!

Well done Bill, you truly are a genius!
I have no idea what you are talking about here. All of Bill's mashups are fire and would be listenable on Spotify
His mash-up of Cece Peniston and Within Temptation is a song too good. I wish they'd perform together once it's such a good mash up
Absolutely.
This has unintentionally placated the gods of ancient Sumer and Babylon in the same manner as the Lamentation Rites. You have saved humanity with this song Mr. McClintock
This is the first one where I've never heard of one of the songs, _but it doesn't matter._
Fabulous, again.
Huge props for not including any singing parts from FFDP. I was terrified the entire time. LOL
This one is perfect. Marvin's voice always fits well.
I played this for my neighbor, he's 71 years old and a Marvin fan, he loved it.Cannot believe it😂
Soul Metal!
This genre needs to happen
The Sabbath guitar solo was perfect!
I have this mash-up on repeat when I go to work and back on my bicycle.
You know when it is that good when you completely forget the original songs and believe 100% that this is an original song!
Bill, you never cease to amaze me... it's borderline eerie & unsettling how good you are at this!
That added iomi solo, it is eerie what bills done. Master masher
And I can't stop listening 😎
I totally agree
Christ Bill, you NEVER disappoint. It'd be one thing if you only made bangers out of a couple song mashups but at this point you are a goddamn sorcerer.

This is the best song I've ever heard in my 41 years of existence. Unbelievable. I can't stop listening.
That was just about the most perfect song ever.
Amen. Hits sooo hard. Solo mesh is perfect. It's a crime all I can give is a like.
The last 4 bars of Toni Iommi’s solo echoes the “ come on, come on” verses of Marvin Gaye, Brilliant!!!
Bill, some of your tracks make me chuckle because of your deliberate intent to amuse and delight…but this one gave me goosebumps. So good, a powerhouse of soul metal. Incredible.

You can download stuff while buying it. ITunes was an example of this.
I know a good portion of Bill's mashups involved artists representing disparate genres but within the same era. These two are at least THREE DECADES APART and Bill still knocked this out the park!!!
This one is DEF a favorite. Had to play it a second time. As a ""zillenial"" That grew up with all three musicians here....PERFECT MASH UP.
ok, can we have a dedicated soul metal band around already? how many times does Bill have to drive the point ?!
Iommi's solo fits so flawessly there that it's absolutely frightening... some king of black magic there :)
I did not think this mashup would work so well.
It doesn't.
Get ratioed
Bill you deserve a key to the world. This music you create is like nothing I've ever heard. I'm in love.
This is upon your best ever. I know every line of Marvins vocals and I appreciate how much you tweaked it to make it fit even better. Utterly brilliant!
This is frigging incredible. Marvin Gaye's pipes are a match for metal
Your mashups are something incredible, but this is way beyond that. I wish i could hear this in a liveshow.
This is not just one of The Best Mash-Ups Ever Created, It's One of The Best Songs Ever Made ! There, I Said it 🤚🏽⬇️🎤
It's so good because there's actually a great vocalist over the music.
Took the best of two groups and amplified the result.
