Gaye, Marvin - Little Darling (I Need You) Lyrics

I no it my mate Stan the man has done it And cleethorpes northern soul beachchomer. Used to do navy club and does one at Scunthorpe great going to Goole soon he’s doing one there went to butlins one weekend Skeggnes 🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾😉

Brilliant old stuff can't beat it.🐘🌈

When I dj these days do I play Marvin or the Flirtations

Just brilliant. UK No.50 in September 1966 in the same month, it got to No.47 in the US. Peaked only at No.16 in the US R&B charts. This was one of the most underrated songs by Marvin Gaye, written by the brilliant Holland/Dozier/Holland.

My Absolute all time favorite vocalist EVER ....What's going on is my all time favorite song EVER ... only my opinion!!!!

Thanks for commenting, this is defo in my top 5 Motown tunes ever.....Kerry.

Thank you kerith. Im a mess . I dont no if you believe in life after death? I do xx

Sorry to hear your still missing your Mom and hurting like hell, i had a Catholic upbringing so i do believe in a sort of afterlife. I don,t know if i,m right or wrong really, i can say when my Dad died then my Mom i hit the cider and went offside fighting, looking for trouble just because i was angry with the world i guess. My brothers rallied around me and showed me brotherly love and understanding that helped me, i think i know what your saying too as i had lets call it "a moment" i could not explain what happened.....Kerry xx

Love this!

Me too, just drags me up to dance.

Quality. Real quality. Motown and Northern Soul with the voice of Marvin Gaye. Perfect.

PERFECT is the PERFECT description imo.

never stop dancing ...... KTF

I never do, i still dance about whilst doing my daily housework.

My favorite version
So many good memories

Mine too, i do like the Flirtations version also.

WOW NEVER HEARD THAS ONE BEFORE MARVIN YOU TRULY ARE THE BEST OF BEST 💯

The guy was a LEGEND.

@Kerith Louisa Williams-Catton i luv you

A slice of Holland-Dozier-Holland magic for Mr. Marvin Gaye.

G,day Neil, how are you?

kerith what more can i say. shivers down my spine when i here this song . thanks xxx

Me too, and i am drawn up to dance every time.....Kerry.

Cut down much too soon. You are missed Marvin, but your music lives on.

A tragedy for sure, the legacy he left us will live on forever. I can,t but think of how much we could have had......Kerry.

A great Motown / Northern crossover song. Holland-Dozier-Holland were brilliant writers / producers and maybe it was their style that inspired many Northern songs from elsewhere.

Never were truer words ever spoken.....Kerry.

REST IN PARADISE MARVIN as you sing my song

R.I.P. Icon. WE love you......Kerry.

Not creepy imo, if your a stranger it looks like a coded message for someone haha. My kiddies are back at School tomoz for Term 4 until December 14th. I will be glad in one way but also miss have them being around during the day.

Yummy yummy cum to MUMMY hahaha hahaha lol 😍😄😁

? unusual comment Joanne haha.

Hi im back lol. Love it every time without fail 😄

Always glad to speak to you Joanne anytime of the night or day, have a beaut Weekend! Just remember dancing cures all problems.....Kerry.

@Kerith Louisa Williams-Catton love the weekend. Just listening again. Its such a beautiful song and i feel it in my soul awwww. And everyone should be listening to these great tunes. These are absolute classics. I hope your weekend is as great as mine. 😁

My Weekend was very boring just revising & swotting basically, but the rewards if i pass will be worth it i,m sure. Have a great day, keep on dancing.....Kerry.

@Kerith Louisa Williams-Catton hi kerith. Whats a swotting? Is that right? Lol is it an exam? I think your a very intelligent woman lol iv got radar , i think. Got the school run tomorrow. Having to limit the boys on the Xbox 1. The little girl just loves to sing and write. Im gonna listen to a couple of tunes if i can. Have a good day 😄

G,day Joanne, yes swotting is a phrase used over here for "head in your books revising" for eg Kerry is Swotty! In December before the 4th Term break i take my finals Diploma at Brissy Uni. I really need this for my business if i am to expand etc & not have to pay for services of people who have passed this diploma already. I haven,t uploaded anything new to YT or even thought of it for absolutely ages, as for being very intelligent i wish i was haha. I left School with no qualifications as late on it was found i was Dyslexic & not much could be done as i was 15 by then.

Just love this tune sooo much. Takes me back to a time that holds so many memories, both painful and beautiful. My man loves it when i dance and sing. He calls me a little big woman lol. Its Saturday night and im enjoying every wonderful minute. God bless😁

I don,t really watch tv, most of the time i watch dvd,s or listen to my music. I don,t drink anymore & unlike some of the girls who work for me i don,t smoke pot or anything at all. (boring) i know haha.

@Kerith Louisa Williams-Catton your not boring. I dont smoke pot either lol i have a drink at the weekend and stay home with my man. Children are my word. And they love your music. They cant understand why there dancing lol. Time for bed and the kids Will be up in half past ridiculous 😁

My girls are my world too, we just chill out & have fun going on days off exploring. There,s so much to see here & it,s all new to us. Thats nice your kiddies love music, my lot are game nuts & play their friends online from school.

Another favourite lol. A comment . A guy said im going back to the 70s in a taxi anyone want a lift. Im in that cab. But a cab from the 60s would be even better. Beautiful tune lav lav lav it. Im a Yorkshire lass soooo al say ta lovy 😁

I wish i could go back to the 60,s too or even the 50,s also. I was born in Clones ROI & moved to Yorkshire aged 1 year. After spending most of my life in Leeds/Dewsbury i emigrated to OZ & have not regretted one moment. This country has been good to us, i turned up on a plane 3 girls, 2 suitcases & nothing else really.

@Kerith Louisa Williams-Catton wow really. I was born in york brought up in wetherby and lived i leeds. I was the only mixed race gal in wetherby in the 70s. But always loved the old tunes. My mum was the double of Sophia Loren. She taught me how to dance lol. I won a dancing competition when i was 13. I was in a group called the glow worms hahaha. I just love to dance and sing. My man watches me in aw lol😁

I was born in Clones, ROI & moved to Yorkshire living in Leeds then moving to Dewsbury before i emigrated in 2012 to Oz. My life here is now wonderful after a hard start no money, no home & a single parent too. My girls have embraced the Aussie culture & if the truths known they sound like extras from "Neighbours" now haha. I wish maybe i,d moved here sooner!!.....Kerry.

Marvin Gaye a natural talent.

Such a tragedy about his ending! i feel robbed of the chance to hear more from this wonderful artist!

Fantastic lol lav it lav it. Thankyou so much for all your amazing tunes. My man is laughing cause he knows im commenting again 😄

My pleasure, have a great Sunday Joanne & your guy.....Kerry.

Listening again LOL 😁

Thank you for being nice, take care my lovely friend.....Kerry.

Absolutely fantastic tune! Hairs standing. Sometimes a memory from a tune is spine tingling and this is it. Takes me back to a time that holds the gold of life in my hand but unfortunately it slips like ice down a drain melting slow rock by rock. Brandy on them! Pplease. Lol. Thanks again for your sweet sweet music. Me and my partner listen every night. Bless 😁

Thank you for your always lovely comments Joanne, i really do appreciate them!! It makes it worthwhile the effort to hear people listen to my video,s. Have a beaut new Week yourself & your partner.....Kerry.

A different version, but just a good.

Love this song. Miss you, Marvin.

Thanks for commenting Pamela, Marvins death robbed us of one of the most talented Singers i have ever heard....Kerry.

Kerith Louisa Williams-Catton I agree with you, Kerith. I loved his voice, talent and music....like so ,many others. We lost a good one, for sure.

I heard a cover version, the Doobie Brothers, I think, before I ever knew this existed. Theirs was not too bad, but it's good to hear it the way it was intended to sound. Thanks for posting.

My pleasure as always, have a beaut day.....Kerry.

@Les Phillpott Fantastic vocals as always, I love Motown.....Kerry

I just love these old tunes,best days of my life Motown & Northen Soul

Thanks for commenting KTF.....Kerry

My fav marvin song.

@John Roberts Glad that you like it.....Kerry

One of my all-time favorites from Marvin Gaye.  Motown was THE music for me prior to my teens and during.

@Corrupt Kingdom Glad you enjoy it as well.  The music itself derives from one's innermost being the soul-hence the term "Soul Music".  I believe classic Motown will live forever.

I hope it'll live on as well. Come on Tamla Motown. I think that was what it was called anyway. Correct me if I'm wrong.

@Corrupt Kingdom   After a brief research, you're correct.  Tamla Motown was the brainchild of Berry Gordy back in 1959.  Hope you will always continue to enjoy the Motown sound.

Trust me, I always will. I'll make sure this music lives on...

I love your choice, Motown for me always.....Kerry.

always been my favourate

Thanks for commenting and listening......Kerry

Cracking dancer! Thank you!
