On this date in 1971 {Feb. 20th} "What's Going On" entered Billboard's Hot Top 100; eventually it peaked at #2 {for 3 weeks} and spent 15 weeks in the Top 100.
Ranked 21st on Billboard's Year-End Hot 100 Singles of 1971 chart...
Reached #1 on Billboard's R&B chart
Cyndi Lauper covered it, her version reached #12
Was the 1st of 3 straight records by Mr. Gaye to make the Top 10; this one, "Mercy Mercy Mercy" {#4}, & "Inner City Blues" {#9}...
This is a great song that captures the attitude of a generation, my generation and I have always looked to it as a song that spoke for me and some many of my brothers and sisters out there that were going through the changes of that time right towards the end of the war and the exit of a president that was a real crook, but we got through it and this song helped that to come about.
This is the Black National Anthem. The words sung in the 1960's apply today in 2010. Life is no better today than in 1968 for many Americans, not just Black Americans. The hate is ever present in our society and greed is unbelievable. There is no end in sight. This must stop if we are to survive as a nation.

自分が知ってる歌詞では「Mother,Mother Brother, Brother」のくだりは
普通に「母さん、母さん」なんですがどっちが正しいんでしょうか?
でも自分的にはこの動画の詩のほうがステキに思えました。

It's by a protest song, the melody is also very good!
