      ​@JacquelineFox-xo6jn Marvin, in his own way was telling us we need God, and each other to change the world around us before we can face the rest of it. Stand together as one total force, and love one another. Clean up our neighborhoods, stop killing one another, respect one another. God made us to be Kings and Queens, not clowns, queers and hoes on the street. Once we get this, we will be ready to do what need to be done. I pray we still have a world to live in!!!!

    This song was released in 1971. It was written in 1970. 50 years and what has changed except the years? We are definitely headed backwards instead of progressing forward. Marvin was our prophet when he wrote this album about the turbulent times of that era. I wonder what he would say now? It's really so sad that this is prevalent 50 years later.

    Reasons why this is a 10/10 song.
    1. 50 Years old and still sounds beautiful today.
    2. 50 years later and the stuff said in this song is relevant even today.
    3. Released on possibly the greatest soul album ever.
    4. Sounds like an opening track in a tragic movie that takes place somewhere like Detroit.
    5. Was sung by the one & only Marvin Gaye.

      My friend sent this song out to me today. And he reads the Vedas which are about 5,000 years old.. u read it right five thousand years. And you know what ? They tell us all about it.
      Translation
      Government men are always like carnivorous demons called Rākṣasas [man-eaters]. Sometimes these government men turn against the conditioned soul and take away all his accumulated wealth. Being bereft of his life’s reserved wealth, the conditioned soul loses all enthusiasm. Indeed, it is as though he loses his life.
      Purport
      The word rāja-kula-rakṣasā is very significant. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam was compiled about five thousand years ago, yet government men are referred to as Rākṣasas, or carnivorous demons. If government men are opposed to a person, that person will be bereft of all his riches, which he has accumulated with great care over a long period of time. Actually no one wants to pay income taxes - even government men themselves try to avoid these taxes - but at unfavorable times income taxes are exacted forcibly, and the taxpayers become very morose.

      I disagree. Remember this comes on the heels of inequity and white claimed superiority that Malcolm X, M.L.King, jr., Stokely Carmicheal et. al. as well as a whole group of people (those who were descendants of illegal commerce) who were screaming these very words (paraphrased) to their oppressors . Music though, indeed is a language of its own that traverses ethnicity, creed and kind...as well as the American born term--Race. Marv was not some unique savant to this...he just took the b.s. that white America had yoked him with and put it into capitalist/Christian terms. Yes, wonderful song...but the plight was before him as well as after (and current). Why do ppl hate...usually because they have been wronged . So Marvin is basically asking what have Blacks done wrong to deserve the maltreatment.

You can feel his soul come through this music, his heart ache for the everyday people that have hard lives yet find joy in their circumstances because they have no other choices in life. Trapped and hopeless by a system that never had their well being in mind. Every time I hear this I am reminded that we need compassion in this life towards our fellow man.

    Marvin's music transcended race! I caught grief for listening to soul music in the early 70's! Didn't care what people thought of me. It had such a deep meaning to me then and still does! Man I love his music! RIP Mr. Gaye!!!

      Srimad-bhagavatam 5.14.16
      Translation
      Government men are always like carnivorous demons called Rākṣasas [man-eaters]. Sometimes these government men turn against the conditioned soul and take away all his accumulated wealth. Being bereft of his life’s reserved wealth, the conditioned soul loses all enthusiasm. Indeed, it is as though he loses his life.
      Purport
      The word rāja-kula-rakṣasā is very significant. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam was compiled about five thousand years ago, yet government men are referred to as Rākṣasas, or carnivorous demons. If government men are opposed to a person, that person will be bereft of all his riches, which he has accumulated with great care over a long period of time. Actually no one wants to pay income taxes - even government men themselves try to avoid these taxes - but at unfavorable times income taxes are exacted forcibly, and the taxpayers become very morose.

    The climactic culmination of an all-time classic album. This is just straight-up one of the greatest songs of all time - and that's saying a lot. Marvin really poured his entire soul into this one. And maybe this is only cover-art association, but to me this whole record has literally got the atmosphere of petrichor, most of all on this track..

    "Crime is increasing...trigger happy policemen...", Marvin was a true prophet. I believe this song was written in 1971, and it is STILL the soundtrack of today. A genius in every sense of the word. Gone too soon.

    A poetic masterpiece. Brilliantly executed and performed. And remember the great Berry Gordy didn't want him to make the album. This is when you know you are an artist. When you fight for your art regardless of the consequences. One of the most amazing voices this country has ever produced. RIP brother.

      Dom great comment but I have to disagree, this was not ahead of it's time. The fact that it's still relevant and true speaks to the nature of society not progressing nearly as quickly as the technology people use to claim civility. Sad, but the mentality of this nation has stayed stagnant when it comes to the humanity part.
