daisydumont got me all nostalgic and now I'm listening to Marvin Gaye clips at the youtube. Wow, that man was something else. He was the definition of sexy back then. We used to talk about him like we knew him. Pretty much like I do now with my TV boyfriends. :)
I don't think anyone today sounds like Marvin, or can make you feel like Marvin could. He had something special. See, this is what Yer Mother listened to back in the day. Yeah. Don't ask what she was wearing.

Look, this is for the old heads--enjoy!

and this song right here is responsible for lots and lots of babies. ;)

I love Marvin.
It makes me so sad to think about his death. So senseless!
So fucked up.

It really was terrible--I remember to this day where I was when I heard he died.

I know whatever it was, it was TOUGH! Couldn't tell you nothing.

Marvin Gaye will always be THE MAN.

His music, along with Teddy Pendergrass and Luther Vandross regardless of age--always resonates.

Sure you're right--with my platform boots and my big pleather coat. *G*

Teddy, Luthor--those guys really were giants.

oh, he was so handsome! and watch him work that crowd!

i was wearing bellbottoms and tie-dye, probably. always was a wannabe-hippie, me.

....just consulted wikipedia. i didn't know he was from DC! interesting history, but such a very sad death.

His death was such a shock to us! My mom and my sis and I were pretty big fans. We were just leaving Friendly's and my sis turned on the car radio and we were just stunned to hear the awful news. He just never could escape his demons, I guess.

"Sexual Healing" came out when I was ten or so - I'd never heard anything so sultry!

but you weren't allowed to listen to it then, right? *mommy instincts come out*

I wish singers today realized you don't have to describe every bump and mole in gruesome detail in order for a song to be sexy! I bet Mikey would agree with me. *pinches your icon's cheeks*

Me too! One of my favorite songs of all times!

"Sexual Healing" would be perfect for a Lexcentric vid.

This is the type of music I listen to at work when they piss me off. It helps to relieve my mind. :)

Ahhhh, yes! Marvin is so good for that. ;)
