nothing...the world is the world

Society is brainwashing

Charles, amigo, yo me hago la misma pregunta...¿que nos está pasando como sociedad?...por Dios...

One big mess hatred violence and killing for what stupid is as stupid does peace to all all forever marvin gaye RIP ❤❤

It's halfway there already, and still relevant.

Sadly, it will

still is amirite?

a guy I know worked in one of the big record stores in downtown DC when this record came out .. Motown wasn't expecting much in terms of sales, especially in "white" areas ... they sold more than 300 copies in their store on the first Saturday the record was released, and he said for the rest of the summer, " you couldn't go anywhere in DC without hearing this record blasting out of windows."

it only gets better after 50 bro, congrats! or Happy B'day :0)

SERIOUS TURNTABLE ✨🪂✨🪄

INDEED & AMEN!!!

He was one of a very few lyricists that spoke about what we were doing to the planet, and the poisons that we were putting into the earth, air, and sea. Such a strong spiritual side to him.

Agree. One of the few albums I'd consider perfect(others are Ziggy Stardust, Dark Side of the Moon, Led Zeppelin IV, 36 Chambers)

Whose listening in 2021 after the ca pitol inserrection police brutality and killing of people of color it's sad.

Paul Herman I've been listening to this album for over 30 years I'll still feel like it's the best album I will put on tell your kids to listen to this if they do you won't have to worry about you

Except Save the Children. It is as if he had to plant a blob of blight in the middle of a diamond. One of the worst songs ever made in the middle of one of the best albums ever made.

@@hanstun1 I gotta disagree, its a powerful message mixed with strings and James Jamerson (In my opinion) it is one of the best songs on the "A" side of the album. Obviously you can disagree but man those vocal runs by Marvin along with the bass playing by James really make this song shine.

@@sethunderwood5525 Production is superb and musicianship amazing, no argument from me there. The tune is alright. The lyrics and singing is what I take issue with. It comes across as syrupy, insincere and melodramatic. I used to own the LP back in the day and could put the needle down to exactly where he had stopped yelling "save the babies."

@@hanstun1 that makes sense to be honest, he does say "save the babies" a ton of times and it could be seen by some as kinda crazy.

@@sethunderwood5525 yea i would say side b gets better and better each song.

3 year old shot in Chicago..12..1..22 what's happening brother..save the children

Such a sad way to live

same here

Is there even any on that which looks like a reference quality turntable?

@@Rhythmicons yeah it's mystical...like a V12 Ferrari 250

@@Rhythmicons I can hear it all through the track. IT adds 'warmth' ... a little roughness makes it sound better. Like sprinkling salt on a watermelon.

@@agnidas5816 It was a rhetorical question just commenting on the quality of the platter. I always wanted to hear those laser-equipped vinyl players that were 10K when they came out that looked like a huge CD player and supposedly got the laser down in the innermost reaches of the groove where the stylus couldn't reach. Additionally, the "warmth" probably is present without the pops and crackles. It is like modern tape delay emulators where they market wow flutter as a feature.

Mis respetos Carl....

That's how music should be !

Nobody can rob you unless you let them.

Yeah we had 8 years of a half black half white president and race relations actually got worse. I guess progress in history progresses and regresses. Ebbs and flows. The pendulum swings. But it is important for us to keep MLK and his dream in our hearts and minds. He was definitely "progress". Not these dividers in washington.

@@thomasball1933 There was backlash from racist who just couldn’t tolerate a black man as PRESIDENT, and started the whole birthism, Muslim crap. Every time blacks are making progress the jealous racist attack. As a whole I found different races more United under Obama, never seen anything like it in this country before. As for ebbs and flows the racist are always racist that doesn’t ebb or flow. They’re just vocal in front of everyone now, and not just other racist friends, family, and people who stay silent, cuz that’s Trumps base and he was always dog whistling. Btw MLK is not the only black person who brought about progress, more currently. That includes OBAMA.

@@shellecapos8574 Obama just continued the Bush wars. He droned more people than W. Don't put your faith in these people. I am from Maryland where Thurgood Marshall was from. He is a very big figure in this state. While MLK was in the streets, Thurgood Marshall was riding trains all night across the south teaching black people Law. He was just as important, if not more, than MLK. Both were necessary. You needed both. So I agree with you there are many, many more black people who brought about progress. I always say we owe these people a debt of gratitude, they did all the heavy lifting. All we have to do is live the dream. Just stop bickering and live the dream. I think we did make progress with integration here in MD-DC-VA in the 60's such that my generation (born in 74) was bequeathed all the hard work of the previous generations, all the "revolutions" (civil rights, sexual, communications, etc). For us racism was obviously false, we grew up in an integrated world. (Plus here in MD we have ALL the races...literally everyone from the whole planet...very cosmopolitan here...probably because of the embassies in DC). The only ones who retained their racist ways had to be taught by their parents. And those people get less and less with every generation. So it does ebb. But then we have all this "divide and rule" tactics in the media...always trying to divide us. I always said the powers that be will have to work overtime to get the next generation to hate. But it sure looks like they are working overtime to divide us! It feels like it. So back to basics...back to MLK...back to the fundamental american dream...to live in peace. I was a tour guide on the mall in dc for several years. And Jefferson is my guy, defined America. Well the Jefferson Memorial on the mall is placed such that the statue inside is facing the white house. So TJ is keeping an eye on the president. The MLK statue is facing TJ, keeping an eye on him. MLK completed Jefferson's American ideal. And MLK was a true christian, a christ-like martyr. These guys handed us this country. All we have to do is live their dream...which is pretty good. We have this rich multicultural world now. All we have to do is explore it. We learn so much from all of these cultures. I also think there is nothing wrong with one people staying among their own kind, their own culture. Nothing wrong with that. It's when you start hating other cultures that problems arise, excluding them, dehumanizing them, etc. We are the great melting pot here. But also nothing wrong with preserving your own culture either. We are a nation of immigrants. We are all from "somewhere else". But once you get here you strive for the American ideal set forth by Jefferson and MLK. The declaration of independence and the bill of rights. That is America.

1 of the best!

Thank you beautiful people there is so much love from me to all of you!
