You really give a great history lesson to those too young to know about the viriulent racial hatred, napalming of naked chlidren, etc born in the Age of Aquarius -- but also the GREAT HOPE that will NEVER die-- that Earth WILL find peace, maybe in my life time, as we evolve into the color pictures you show later on -- people of all walks of life -- children- holding hands. Great pix of MLK, Malcolm, RFK, Ali, and the Olympic protestors, who never recovered from their heroic resistance.
They probrably paid his fundamentalist nutter of a father to shoot him because he preached peace, just like anyone else who tries to preach peace like John and Ghandi and all the great ones. Om Shanti. x
WHAT A GREAT MUSIC VIDEO OF THIS TALENTED MAN!! NO ONE WILL EVER REPLACE MARVIN'S TALENT NO MUSIC TODAY CAN COMPARE TO THIS!! THANK'S FOR THE POSTING!!
thank you berry berry much for making this beautiful video of this beautiful song. i really apprecited what you doing for mankind. hopfully to for those who havnt noticed yet, this will open there eyes! NAMASTE <3
This song and collection of pictures touches on every emotion of this era....good bad or indifferent it seems to capture numerous emotions of this time......Great Job
occupy was a fad. so what lifes tough everyone lives it. you don't like the situation your in work harder. do something instead of camping out in central park like a bum
war is about to begin between Iran and USA. Needed to get away from all the negativity and hope for better days. People we need change now. Compassionate change.
this isnt whats goin on!!! "HEEEYEEEEYEEEYEAA HEEEEYAAAAAYEEEEYAA I SAY HEY!!!! WHATS GOIN ON!!!! AND HE PRAYS!!! OHMAHGOD DO I PRAY!!! MYEEAAAA!!! I PRAY EVERY SINGLE DAY!!! FOR A REVOLUTION!!!!!" this is blasphemous pig swill!!!
With all that's going on in our nation and the world this song sings to us all.I pray that we all listen and do something to make the world a better place to live.
Some people in the 21st century do not care and are not effected by another human beings life because they only care about themselves and materialistic items. The times when the country had to stand together because our men were being sent over in thousands and coming back in wood cases feel as if they have been forgotten. Marvin Gaye wrote songs that expressed, without sugar coating it, "what's going on" in the world and war.
Thank you! I have been waiting for so long for this promise to be kept. In this age of tech everything, we seem to have forgotten living things. If we are not family and understand that, we fail ourselves and those who come after us.
This song bring me to tears, My husband is a vietnam veteran and i was there when all this was going on. I have watched for 30 years the effects war has on people.
I thought the video you made with this song was great. The only critisim was in seing Muhammed Ali who evaded the Vietnam War. I don't think that was right..
you know marvin would look down now and embrace you all... i would like to see a multi-cultural thumbs up if you think this is one of the greatest songs ever penned... we miss you marvin..
I really wish people would stop claiming this for whatever political movement they happen to be a part. This is a song about those who suffer at the hands of each other, not by any institution. Get over yourselves.
I am in the "OCCUPY" movement, at occupyseattleorg. 10 days ago, as us OCCUPIERS were singing songs, the Seattle Police Lieutenant on duty in charge of about 20 police officers watching us occupiers asked if he could request a song (Seattle Police are for the most part very cool). I said yes, and he chose this song. As I did not remember it that well, I agreed to re-learn it and sing it later, inviting him to join us in singing. WHAT A GREAT SONG!! Peace and Love Brad
@BradfordBMorrison you're a douchebag. Can you even begin to understand that the whole country thinks your 'movement' is a pathetic waste of time. Occupiers have proved to the world that the youth of America are brainless as ever. Do you understand your movement is doing nothing? You have zero political pull. This song is about anti-violence not stupid spoiled children that have no idea how good their lives really are. Get a better education, then get a job.
@dirty7black7boy7 Well said, actually. However, there's a lot to be said for "peaceful demonstration" which was put to good use by Dr. Martin Luther King. Perhaps rather than denigrate we should understand how the point is being made. Maybe you are more of an activist than a demonstrator. It takes multiple voices and methods but somehow "we the people" will be heard, and, hopefully we will get the appropriate response eventually.
@BradfordBMorrison music breaks down all walls and spans all peoples and languages. its the common divider, the most primal sensation mankind can bestow on one another. MUSIC!!!
We don't to surge...escalate...99% of us are tired of making the 1%'s profit from our blood and sacrifice. Still a powerful message and well put Marvin!
And the answer is still: "I have no fawking idea, I can't think of a single person who feels personally invested in the decisions world "leaders" make. They got us busy lusting after shiny googaws, fighting each other over race,creed, sexuality, social caste. We're still getting gamed by the same hustle after all these years. Makes folks feel angry and foolish, like you just misspelled "liberty" at the 3rd grade spelling bee. You get the brown ribbon for "participation".
The moment What's going on starts up to Innercity blues, this is holy music. Despite being a protest album of the 1970s, its sad to say the issues are alive then as it is now.
I will tell you what is going on. People chose greed, and war over common sense. We live in a world today that if you are not wearing the latest fashion you are damned naive ignorant poor sole. Sucks.
@maalvarez6996 I be five and four months and I will bend you over like that purple bastard-twinkie-tellie-cunt-mother-fucker in about a second. Who be under-age now yo, trick ass son-of-a-green-daisy-fuckatubbie-tart! Yo mama be selling widescreen adverts between her legs like my pops straddles my friend Jimmy's bottom.
When you put this song against the National Anthem he sang at the 1983 NBA All Star Game, can you find the irony or contradiction/controvery here? If so, then what?
When you put this song against the National Anthem he sang at the 1983 NBA All Star Game, can you find the irony or contradiction/controvery here? If so, then what?
"Father, Father we don't need to escalate". That line totally changed meaning to/for me on April1st, 1984. Every time that I hear it now.........wonder what exact type of escalation of violence Marvin may have been thinking of. Even subliminally. He & his father had quite a "troubled" relationship. Another story in itself. One of the all-time Greatest & a Legend.......R.I.P. Marvin, You are still very much missed.
this country wanted us to die for this mother fucker and not be able to vote or sit down in a restaruant and eat.i never wanted my children to fight for this shiity country government dont give a fuck about life.my son went to fight in afghanistan I was not pleased look how the republicans disrespect obama.now you can donate all the money you want to a campaign.why BECAUSE OBAMA RAISED SO MUCH MONEY. NOW THE RULES CHANGE DONT BE FOOLED PEOPLE.
Western world instant "gratification" nothingness unenlightened led to disconnection from reality. Universe created so we could spend precious time filling our heads with mindless pop culture while allowing the destruction of lives and the planet? Together we stand and divided we fall. 23
Man Although we have progress..some things are still the same now as it was then...this is a classic, congress needs to listen carefully to this song.....
I think his dad killed him. WTF? When i was enrolled at a mostly black school; 1982 A young African-American; not me, them; they supported the black cause.You should Go fuck your-self.
I remember hearing this the first time coming back from nam and it hit home between the war and what i came home to it was real this song helped me a lot marvin told it like it was
I played this album for my girlfriend back when it first came out in 1971. then I took her to four Marvin Gaye concerts. We will be celebrating 40 years together next year. now that's what I call a powerful album. Marvin Gaye lives in us.
Well done. Powerful images from another powerful time in history. Why do I feel like we are now repeating the history of Vietnam, the Civil Rights Movement, and the Great Depression all at once?
The MLK statue will be unveiled on Sun. Your video brought tears to my eyes. You may have to be old to really appreciate the significance of this song. Great job.
you did a wonderful job on the video! very moving... this song is as relative today as it was when marvin originally recorded it. beautiful... absolutely beautiful!! thx!!
'm 6 years old. All the kids in kindergarten listen to garbage pop music like the wheels on the bus and twinkle twinkle little star. I exclusively listen to post romanticism classical music.
You say Kumbaya My Lord I say Dmitri Shostakovich
You say Baa Baa Black sheep I say Johannes Brahms
You say the Teletubbies theme tune I say Sergei Rachmaninoff
Thumbs up if you're one of the 0.0001% of preschoolers who still listen to real music!
@ilikeunitedvrymuch if you believe there are "real" an not real music please i advise you to look behind your own perspective of life. think once up on a time, the music you call real use to be considered garbage by people who listen to i don't know say classical music. so life is about perspective not reality my friend. have peace.
@ilikeunitedvrymuch fucking liar!! but whoever you really are here you can have this sticker. congets you listen to good music..i doubt anyone else gives a fuck.thumb whore
@ilikeunitedvrymuch If more people really listened to the words of this song and watched video they would want the world to change for the better just like Marvin did.
@ilikeunitedvrymuch I think its funny this comment has so many likes.. You really think a 6 year old child wrote this? Really? Maybe there's a joke that I'm missing...?
who ever you are i just want to thankyou big time for what you created hitting the nail right on the head i remember as a kid seeing some of those pics in life magazine and time
I truly thank you for that history i was in the army in 1971 on our time off some of us would get Marvin what;s going on record out and play it i would be thinking while i was listnig to his music would i make it back alive.Mchael b wheeler.Sr mwheeler911.youtube
beautiful images placed onto a beauiful timeless classic...its funny how things change and stay the same.....black leaders murdered 40plus yrs ago, now fake ones are propped up as leaders...vietnam, iraq....like hitler or bush, same shit, different assholes
This song, "Whats Going On" is one of the most enligtening songs in the universe. Only he could pull this off the way he did! His voice makes us watch, and not look away. tks u tube, and Marvin. Keep making the angles happy
Beautiful.

I was born in 1999 but was born severely deaf so I am indifferent to all music in my lifetime. But I can still cum.

'm 6 years old. All the kids in kindergarten listen to garbage pop music like the wheels on the bus and twinkle twinkle little star. I exclusively listen to post romanticism classical music.
You say Kumbaya My Lord I say Dmitri Shostakovich
You say Baa Baa Black sheep I say Johannes Brahms
You say the Teletubbies theme tune I say Sergei Rachmaninoff
Thumbs up if you're one of the 0.0001% of preschoolers who still listen to real music!

@ilikeunitedvrymuch if you believe there are "real" an not real music please i advise you to look behind your own perspective of life. think once up on a time, the music you call real use to be considered garbage by people who listen to i don't know say classical music. so life is about perspective not reality my friend. have peace.

This song, "Whats Going On" is one of the most enligtening songs in the universe. Only he could pull this off the way he did! His voice makes us watch, and not look away. tks u tube, and Marvin. Keep making the angles happy
