Great Post! I definitely agree with the Marvin’s
reason for wanting to do the song and not do the typical Motown love song. The
world needed it at that time when things were rough for people of color and for
Americans in general. I can appreciate him using his on brother Frankie as an
inspiration for the song because he had gone through a lot; going to war is bad
enough but to see people kill and be killed is a whole other arena within
itself. I am glad he took a risk to create something so powerful, meaningful,
and at the same time be something you could jam to.
