Actually, this does sound a lot like Marvin Gaye. He has smoother voice than Percy, which is the case with this song. Also, in this version, there are more stresses on certain words and longer notes. Just food for thought.
I Feel Like Evrything He Said In This Song Is So True ...This Is How I Want A Man To Feel Abt Me One Day When Im Mature Enough To Handle A Relationship !
@LUVable1500 this song is about why it is good to be single. you want to "turn your back on you best friend?" when your woman "is bad you cant see it?" , "give up all your comforts?" , "spend your last dime?" , "sleep out in the rain?" "when she plays you for a fool, you're the last to know" in other words you are a total dumb ignorant careless idiot in blind love according to the song. hmm yeah sounds great..lol listen to the lyrics and the other 125+ that agree w you.
piano player: forgive me father for I have sinned. I have lustful thoughts about the back up singers in my band, and I don't hum church songs anymore. only "when a man loves a woman" by marvin gaye.
y cant we all be faithful and be the best spouse for each other its always got to be about money thats y im single if ur in a relationship please treasure it because its hard to find someone just to love u for who u are
Sorry, but these are all stock photos (of children, basically, white kids -- and I'm white myself so I'm not hating on anyone, it's just the fuckin WRONG tonality, this is a GROWN PEOPLE'S SONG -- so the pix need more DEPTH than this kitten calendar art, and the singer ISN'T MARVIN GAYE and you've got the PERCY SLEDGE arrangement all balled up somehow ... Really, don't mean to hurt your feelings. You've just gotta THINK next time. Seriously, son, think it through next time.
@LUVable1500 Hmm....where to start....you're asking Youtubians for answers to your life's undoubtedly many woes....you're getting soggy over badly taken emo pics set to treble-heavy music which somehow fails to mesh with the desired dramatic tone....and even the depth of your despair was not enough to make you spell correctly....wait....you're SINGLE? I WANT YOU!!!

Sorry folks, This is neither Marvin Gaye nor Percy Sledge. A very good impersonator of Percy. I was in elementary school with Percy Sledge Jr. Jr. told me that the bridge is not what everyone thinks; Tryin to hold on to your HIGH CLASS LOVE is incorrect but rather; Tryin to hold on to your HEART AND SOUL is the original recording .... just sounds like the other. Check out Percy Jr. When he was a kid he did a song called, Sugar makes everything sweeter. A lot like a young Michael Jackson
@cherokeepastor No, this is Percy Sledge. When it came time to record the track he just improvised the lyrics in the studio. This is what he came up with at that moment and is what the song is known for.
I had the pleasure of seeing the guy perform and he is amazing! If You’re a fan of old school R & B artists such as Marvin Gaye or Al Green, you’ll adore CJ HILTON, His sound is sooo Smooth! Hear the single here,....

safe and if you do not than walk. She says, Love doesn't hurt, it feels good, like a safe place to be as if in a
cocoon. She says we do not have to sacrifice ourselves or our own self-worth in order to be loved by another.
