The black community as able to have hope and something that allowed the black community as a whole. He was able to reach out with love and respect type of approach instead of using his platform to cause more conflict to the war. We must take a moment and look at what he has to offer to our life being that he was a significant figure Marvin Gaye’s what’s going on gave

My disappointment in him may have startled him because he turned on the radio that sits on my bed stand loudly. To my dismay ‘What’s Going On’ by Marvin Gaye was on the radio.

I agree with him, black artist like Ella & Louis, King of blues Mile Davis and Aretha Franklin are the unsung genius who created their own unique American style of music by having

Marvin Gaye composed “What's Going In”, along with fellow Motown songwriters, Al Cleveland and Renaldo "Obie" B Jenson. This song was released May 21, 1971 by Motown Records.

After listening to What’s Going On? (1971) by Marvin Gaye, I concluded that I liked the message Gaye was trying to spread and appreciated some of the songs used, however there were quite a few of the songs on the album that failed to catch my interest. Starting with the songs I liked, “Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)” is my favorite song off the album. Stylistically I enjoyed the extra instruments that accompanied the regular line up. Specifically, the mellotron caught my attention as it gave the song

I think the theme of Columbine would be telling the hardships of Columbine shooting. The book tells what happens in the shooting, and the characters dealing with the shooting.

The Black Eyed Peas song “Where Is the Love ?” is a very meaningful song in today’s society. It covers the unethical issues that are going on in America and the world. The lyrics of the song critically breaks down war,terrorism,and greed, all of which that boils up to the question,”Where Is the Love” ?
