The day he died, I remember my mom looking at the TV in stunned silence when it was announced. My boy's dad who was a Vietnam Vet locked himself in his room for three days just playing the bongos, looking all depressed and shyt.

If I Should Die Tonight - Marvin Gaye - YouTube

This is one of my favorite songs of all time…..deep…and it feels like not too many people know this one.

Here’s another classic Marvin song that not everyone knows about.

Marvin – Flying High


“Flying high in the friendly sky
Flying high without ever leavin' the ground, no
Rest of the folks are tired and weary
Oh Lord, and have laid their bodies down.
I go the place where danger awaits me
and it's bound to forsake me.
So stupid minded.
I can't help it
oh ya, so stupid minded.
But I go crazy when I can't find it,
In the morning, I'll be alright, my friend.
But soon the night will bring the pains,
The pain, oh the pain
Flying high in the friendly sky
Without ever leaving the ground
And I ain't seen nothing but trouble baby
Nobody really understands, no no
And I go to the place where the good feelin' awaits me
Selfdestruction in my hand
Oh Lord, so stupid minded
Oh and I go crazy when I can't find it
Well I know I'm hooked my friend
To the boy who makes slaves out of men.
And oh beleive me
Flying high in a friendly sky
Oh baby, flyin' high……”

That's in my top 5 Marvin songs...shyt is genius.
