Gaye, Marvin - Everybody Needs Love Lyrics






See those flowers, they need love
see the bluebirds, they need love
see the babies, they need love
all God's children, oh need love

see your mother, she needs love
and my father, he needs love
that's true baby, and I need love too

see those rain drop, rivers they need love
and the mountains and the valleys, they need love
God forgive us, and send us more love from above
don't find good love every day, we ought to think
before we throw good love away

doesn't matter, what you are
a thief or a beggar or even a superstar
as long as you were made by God above
oh, I know, I know, you need love, we need love

baby, oh, I need love, I need your love,
(I'm standing here), oh baby standing in the need of love, I need love
I need it, I got to have it baby
oh can't you see that I'm standing in the need

I'm still here cause I need love
I'm still with you dear
cause I need your love
and I know, oh yes I know
though you feel you don't need loving,
you still need loving too, oh yes you do

it don't matter no, it doesn't matter what you are
a thief or a beggar or a superstar
as long as the Lord made you from above
I know, I know
you were made for love (cause love is what you need and understanding) oh, understanding

you were made for love,
sweet understanding why can't we see we were made for love
you were made for love baby, sweet understanding,
why can't we see, we (you) were made for love
(why is it so hard for us today to see the real)
we were made from love, you were made of love baby you were made to love baby

what's the only thing that's gonna get us together (love's the only thing that's gonna make this cold-blooded world alright) what is this we're singing about for the love of Jesus, let's do it

I need a whole lot of love, sugar
I need a whole lot of sweet love

it's a fact,
(who) even the slimy seal needs love
(who) all of the folks in jail need love
(who) even a mean old man needs love

That hi hat crash is on the original lp but was subtlle lol they brought that crash up.... But you do get entranced in this mix cause it's Marvin everywhere I see the intent ... Seems longer than 6 minutes.

  11. Y.... N....

    Today's musick industries have downsized its common love and genuine fabrics of loving longevity and soulful musical truthfulness and its inspiring values has been over takened by demonic forces. Believers, and ungodly principles as the gulible ones whom supports todays washed down and on the culprits of no returns- unless we all takes our music back onto where it all begins.🎺😉👌

  12. R.... T....

  16. r.... r....

    People are too caught up on worldly things and thoughts so much that they will pass up on LOVE and leave it behind just to please the world. And then after all that the world still finds a way to not accept you

  17. A.... Z....

    Muy buena música. Saludos desde Argentina.

  18. A.... B....

    This track and The Whispers' "Lady" are damn near identical (Also "Met a little girl" off the Here My Dear Album.... nice

    Damm thought i heard all your music wow

  33. J.... S....

    YES...we do

  34. R.... D....

    I hope you recognize this much sooner than much later..

  35. R.... 5....

    wat an awesome musician Marvin we miss u man

  36. R.... M....

    Yes.... Marvin is a man who was a generation ahead of his time..... indeed he was......

  37. M.... ....

    Love how Marvin says, softly rolls into, "And My Father Heeeeeeeee (like a horse or the first word in Hee Haw) Needs Love"!

    You can tell he put some extra feeling into that one. Then, he followed right after saying, he needed love himself (no doubt from his father, or to counterbalance what he just said about his dad)? Deep!

    M.... ....

    MSL525 it can also show how men seem to be lacking in love at that time. In that time men weren't taught to show feelings but Marvin knew what was not only lacking for his father but for himself as well for his father had passed down the same "manly" characteristics. Marvin being the true creative talent he was he was able to express himself with music but his personal relationship with his father, not so much.

    M.... ....

    My favorite part as well bro , so much in fact I rewind that part over and over, heeeee ....... Simply genius

    M.... ....

    Very Deep , considering we now know the struggle he and his father went through, "there is no joy without pain."

  38. M.... ....

    You guys hear, notice Marvin singing baritone on his background vocals to start? The man could do it all!

    Of course, he sings baritone on most of his songs, to complete his melodies or alternate, competing voices. However, you usually don't hear them as clearly as you can on a record like this (or at least you need a good ear, attention span, sound system and/or headphones). It's obviously the mix here on this Alternate Version vs the album release/mix. I'm not complaining!

  39. F.... ....

    superb bassline, excellent vocals, Marvin knew how to make music that touches the heart.

  40. A.... ....

    Pretty Photos..

  41. C.... B....

    B1ove is the most purest form 2 human beings. B1Nation.

    This song makes me weep. He sings it so beautifully.

  46. f.... m....

    His songs might be old school buh am so in love with them...#TeamMarvin
    He's just a legend...super awesome

  47. M.... B....

    I love this song! I never heard it on the radio.

    M.... B....

    That's because most of his best songs never got radio play you truly need to find and acquire his entire recorded output from day 1 i am lucky enough to have done this i have every thing he officially released you have to listen to the entire album

  48. M.... R....

    YOU HEAR DAT REGINA

  49. M.... G....

    Great post Natulikoko.

  50. M.... A....

    So true... why can't we try a little harder... it's all worth it. Creation would be already made right if we'd only love and stop fighting. YAH forgive us.

    I'm as far as you. When I've had a crappy day in my wheelchair & I come home vex, Marvin puts everything in perspective. Total Genius. We can't even say gone too soon coz he left more than enough to last us our lifetime - 50s & 60s babies.

  83. F.... .....

    Nice pic editing . Good Job!

  84. 2.... ....

    super sick drum beat

  85. 0.... ....

    wunderschönes video..danke!

  86. S.... ....

    Sam Cooke holds the title of smoothest singer in the world, imo.

    S.... ....

    but all his songs sounded the same

  87. C.... C....

    Marvin was most definitely one of the most harmony-filled vocalists to ever walk the face of the earth. Marvin Gaye is unquestionably a top 5 R&B musician of all-time. Personally: 1. Sam Cooke, 2. Marvin Gaye and Curtis Mayfield, 3. David Ruffin, 4. Teddy Pendergrass, and 5. Jackie Wilson. May each of these legends truly rest in peace. For they are the reason soul music even exists (along with the likes of Donny Hathaway, Willie Hutch, Stevie Wonder, etc).

    C.... C....

    Men who were generations ahead of their time..

    C.... C....

    You are so right

  88. d.... ....

    In a world of Rap and Hip Hop, it's nice to know there exists another world where artists the calibre of Marvin Gaye still reigns supreme.

  89. K.... ....

    Cause Aries are just that good...

  90. k.... ....

    You know the part on the Temptations story, where Berry ask the quality staff "Your last dollar. Would you buy this record or a sandwhich?" Yeah Im starvin' right now...

  91. Y.... W....

    Luv this song! He was such an icon always touching upon real issues!!!

  92. C.... M....

    Sad thing is, even though Marvin was going through a comeback, I think he was just getting started. We'll never hear the full potential of this beautiful man, so this will have to do. And that's really not as bad as it sounds!

  93. R.... ....

    one dislike hahahahaahhahahahahahahhahahahahah we all love you too my friend x o x x o

  94. l.... ....

    WOW, very very very nice video!......ahh i just love all of marvin, great post!

  95. C.... S....

    marvin was the best smooth singer of the world, with his sexy self and he's a "ARIES". Hey!

  96. Q.... J....

    AMAZING video!!!! Serious, serious KUDOS! :-). Great job.

  97. k.... ....

    Just Wow! Who ever remix this did there THANG!

    Respect

  98. K.... M....

    THIS IS KIILA !
