"Aint' That Peculiar" Marvin Gaye Funk Brothers Andantes My Redux #20! 

I'm still listening and loving this in 2024. He's been gone 40 years now. Continue to RIP Marvin Gaye DC's and Motowns "Prince of Soul"

Ladies and gentlemen please enjoy the greatest R&B vocalist of all time. Prove me wrong.

At 74 I still think Marvin Gaye was the coolest and smoothest singer in Motown may he rest in peace and sing in heaven

I was at work when it was announced that Marvin Gaye had been shot and killed by his father. I was depressed the rest of that day with grief. I remember this song, Ain't That Peculiar. And another great song, Can I Get A Witness. RIP Marvin. You were one of a kind. Smooth as silk.

When Smokey wrote this all he gave it to Marvin and said do something with this when he heard what Marvin did to it he couldn't believe it he just said Marvin made it in his own special way Marvin Gaye the greatest of all time

The Prince of Motown, Marvin Pentz Gaye Jr the greatest singer and a true gift from God. Rest in peace.

It's terribly bittersweet how this kind of music is gone and most of the musicians who created it, are gone with it. It truly is peculiar.

Back in the sixties when the motown stars came to London they were considered posh... We dressed up in our best suit to go see them. They weren't considered your average entertainers they were way beyond that. Closest thing we got to American royalty....

Marvin Gaye singing this song, along with The Andantes' back-up vocals & harmonies & The Funk Brothers' groove goes beyond our hemisphere !

We have been SO spoiled by the BRILLIANCE of the MOTOWN SOUND, that we often overlook the BRILLIANCE of the LYRICS!!!

Marvin Gaye, the Funk Brothers & the fabulous Andantes = dynamite 🧨 music‼️

As an elementary school kid in the 60s I didn't understand these songs in an adult way though I can still sing the lyrics from memory 50 years later. Those Motown songs pervaded the old neighborhoods before the neighborhood lost its collective mind. Weekends and summers were glorious before gangs and drugs destroyed things.

Uncle Marvin We Love You ! We continue to Enjoy Your Music. Uncle Marvin Please if You See Miss Florence tell her I love You.

Barry Gordy, Funk Brothers, and all of the Mowtown stable of artist....The greatest to come out of Detroit Michigan.....Stretching the songs, only makes it better.

Those background singers, the Adantes, are extraordinary.

As the son of baby boomers, this song makes me appreciate when times were simpler and less expensive. My grandparents 8 track player and 8mm Super 8 camera with no sound. Home movies and motown.

Just learned of Mosogotams passing back in April . Damn this virus to hell. What a horrible loss for us who have been brought joy by his incredible work he’s done with these classics from our youth. I’m really sad and bummed out. RIP Brother Mosogotam you will be terribly missed by all of us fans of your work here on You Tube. You Tube please keep this channel for us as a way to honor his work, and memory.

he was one of the best singers of all time. way better than current musicians!

My momma's sister loved the songs that Marvin sang in the 60's!

That Motown lineup was the best EVER at one record label, nothing is a close second!!!

The FUNK BROTHERS ,BACK GROUND SINGER, AND THE GOAT MARVELOUS MARVIN GAYE .MISSING YOU. ONE OF MY FAVORITE.SONGS.😚RIP.

The Peculiar happening Marvin Gaye landed in our lifetime A peculiar happening yes parents gave birth to a magnificent Talent like him thank you to the Gaye family you blessed us with a magnificent singer like Marvin Gaye we still love you thank you so much God bless you

Best of the best this man was one of a kind

The Pioneers of Soul began in the early 60's. Nothing like it in the 50's. The 70's , 80's , 90's , and the new millenium have to thank the Soul of the Sixties for that great rhythm and soulful sound which bought about people of all races together and party.

One of the best. Remember this from fine days in JHS.

Grew up on Motown and Stax records, thank you!

At 75 years age these stunning remixes remind me why my generation fell in love with Tamla Motown. To take these classic numbers apart to reveal the majesty of the Funk Brothers in their pomp is a wonderful tribute to these great musicians and singers. Awesome!

What a fabulous time to grow up in . I was born in 1950 and arriving in the sixties as a young teen we were treated to the most fabulous music. I wonder if teens now will be listening to such relevant and still exciting music in 60 years time!!

I'm at a loss of words when I listen to this band back Marvin Gaye up doing this recording , it is safe to say that the Funk Brothers were downright Surgical in the recording studio they took no prisoners...

Marvin Gaye was so superb its unfair to compare 95% pct of the other singers to him, it would have to be someone like the immortal Aretha Franklin to measure up to him....In a word he was UNREAL

Your mixes are amazing ,to hear Earl van Dykes key board genius then The Detroit symphony orchestra .Followed by The tortured genius that was the late Marvin Gaye.Thanks a million 👍🇬🇧.London Paul.

Call Marvin sing to me oh Marvin Gaye he got it going on still you want to ask about what's going on he been having it going on all his life even though he was taking him from us early in life but Marvin always I tell you he brought me out and I brought me out of a lot of things listening to his LP back in 77 oh my God Marvin what can I say about you everything to me Marvin Gaye smooches rest don't hide love you so much in Jesus name peace within grace and mercy love you so very much Marvin Gaye continue to be blessed in Jesus name rest in peace now amen

Marvin was ahead of his time.Some of his songs need to be played today.Like What's Going on with our Blacks.Mercy,Mercy Me.

The Andantes were Angels that walked the earth with their beautiful vocals.

I understand why it's called Soul music I immediately felt it in my Soul and flooded with goosebumps

Also Marvin Gaye & The Four Tops hold the distinction of appearing on every single rock and roll show in the 1960's. American Bandstand, Where The Action Is (Another Dick Clark Show), Hollywood a Go Go, Hulaballoo, Shindig, Shivaree, and The Lloyd Thaxton Show, who is the Co-Founder of Tigerbeat Magazine.

So much HOPE in the music. Feel like me and my brother are rollin down Flatbush Ave with my grandpa in the olive green Plymouth Fury heading for a Saturday in the city. If we behave it’s a night game at Shea Stadium with the mighty Yankees. Sweet emotion

Such an upbeat tempo....makes you feel good!

I use to sing this song when I was little!!!! Honey you done me wrong but I'm crazy about you, stay away to long and I can't do without you!!! Remember all the words still till today 11/17/2017! Who else????

My daughter in her 40s live some Marvin sounds!!!

I guess i was 10 or 11yrs old. It was the Motown Review at the Fox Theatre, Detroit MI... Mr. Gaye did Hitchhike and the performance was unforgettable...just like yesterday, I'm 65yrs young now.

70 years old and trying to get my groove back I had in the 60's.

Marvin Gaye was full of talent no matter who he sang with.......Sept. 2022 ...Im in the time capsule right now sipping on a cocktail Im happy and satisfied👍

FANTASTIC ! Perfect song for Marvin, wrote by Smokey! ,

This is one of the coolest and smoothies singer I’ve ever seen or heard. Happy that this was in my young years.

THE PRINCE OF SOUL MR MARVIN GAYE REST IN POWER KING THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER LIKE YOU

THIS SONG AND SO MANY GREAT ONE,S YOU WE,RE A WONDERFUL SINGER, R.I.P. MARVIN GAYE,.

I was the DJ playing those 45's at 7yrs old. Still remember the words, honey you do me wrong still I'm crazy about you! Sing the damn song Marvin like only you could. This is grown folk music. It was and still is whiskey drinking music. My aunts, cousins, and, mother, grandmother danced the night away. RIP. 2019. Memories. I just turned 62.

Written by that songwriting genius...the great one...the "cute" lyrics are the give away...William "Smokey" Robinson....listen to those lyrics...I can't do without them....

HAPPY 80TH BIRTHDAY KING MARVIN,WE MISS YOU MAN,GONE WAY TOO SOON ✊🏾❤👑🎙🎙

Amazing how the funk bros could change style of music to fit all the artists ,

MARVIN WAS THE MAN.

Marvin Gaye one of the best singers from Motown. His songs of the 60's decade were great but the 70's and 80's decades songs were better to me. It only means Marvin got better with time. I loved Marvin Gaye. Such an unfortunate tradegy and death. Cora Guice

Thank you Lord for bringing us A MIGHTY LONG WAY !!!!!!!

There will never be another singer that even comes close to Marvin Gaye even if they tried. RIP Marvin Gaye, and thank you for the memories ✌️❤️🌼

2021 and it’s still on and popping with is song. Ain’t that peculiar.🥰🥰🥰

Marvin at his very best.

Magnificent, one of the best beautifull voice, Marvine GAY at the height of his glory❤👏

Ah, yes. When lyrics were understandable. Funk Brothers left us their rich and creative legacy for all time.

This fantastic song by Mr. Gaye says MOTOWN to me more than any other song. I don't know why, it's just perfect!

All I can say is Mercy Mercy Me Marvin Gaye was the baddest singer to ever be

This is the truth...I was in the backseat of my grandad's caddy...here came Marvin...I just about died ! at a stoplight !!

KNOWN AS THE ORIGINAL PRINCE OF SOUL MR MARVIN GAYE REST IN POWER

Omg him and the andantes,the most UNDERATED sessions singers ever

Man!, he was the coolest!

What a VOICE! Miss ya Marvin!

Backing vocals are absolute gold!

Classic!!! MARVIN GAYE WAS ONE OF THE MOST HANDSOME, TALENTED ARTISTS EVER TO THE VOCALIZE LYRICS. I met him once at "THE WHITE HALL HOTEL, DOWNTOWN HOUSTON, TX. I ALMOST CRIED WHEN I LOOKED UP INTO HIS FACE; I'M QUITE SHORT. BY THE WAY, MY THIRD SON'S NAME IS MARVIN; SO WAS HIS Father's!!! INCREDIBLE TALENT.😂😙😍😙😚😎😎

I was a teenager when he left us!!! I cried. He never had a Father! There was a stranger in that house.

Who remembers the motor / Motown review downtown at the Fox. When you could see all the stars together singing dancing, and having a good ass time. And not one person got hurt!! Damn I miss those good times PEACE 😎

My favourite Motown song by my favourite Motown in a seriously good remix!!! I’m a VERY happy man listening to this!! Trebles all round...

Why am I weeping?

I love the extended versions. They would be like this if the songs were out today. So keep making them and others besides Motown

Jackie,Marlene and Louvain could sing a phone book. i'd listen to it all.

One of my favorites ❤R.I.P Mr.Gaye😢

Beautiful background singers he had

😲😲So grateful for these legendary superstars like Marvin Gaye, Sam Cook and soooo! Many others for what they left behind. Need this music now more than ever. The United States is circling the drain, we’re in a fight to save democracy and make it better.🤔🤔

Pure Motown Funk Brothers getting down. Damn they were bad.

I was in grade school and I've Loved Marvin Gaye singing and I still do may peace be upon you marvelous Marvin Gaye

I miss you so much Marvin. Your story makes me so sad. I watch the documentary of your life every once in a while. You will always be my favorite musician

I have Tamla on volume 11 so my dear departed friend can dance in heaven. Miss you so much Kath 😢

A man truly gifted and a man that knew sadness

One of my favorites!!

The beautiful layering of both complex and simple rhythms and harmonies of this piece are so African, it gives you goose bumps. Comparing this to the Brandenburg concertos, you can sense that Bach's roots were African, using the complexities of rhythm playing of the strings and winds and the harmonies, the connection to Africa is unmissable. Music truly unites us all. Mother Africa is still uniting us with the diaspora. Thank you for this wonderful gift, Mother Africa.

What happend to this magic music those days when you could fall in love and stay in love please dont stop playing them great days

It's amazing at the age of 60 i can still sing everyone of these songs and remember the words.

Still bumping in 2020,as it did when I was a youngster...

The fantastic Marvin Gaye and those oh so great Funk Brothers....LOVE This 💜💜💜

Marvin is one of "The Untouchables".

SWHEET...BEYOND WORDS....Back in the day baby, Back In The Day!

Loved his music from time I was sixteen years old. I’m 65 now and still listening
