ALTHOUGH GAYE DID NOT PERSONALLY SERVE VIETNAM, HE CRAFTED AS A KD OF NCEPT ALBUM OM THE POT OF VIEW OF A SOLDIER RETURNG TO UNRT AND UPHEAVAL BACK HOME. THERE WAS ALSO A FAY NNECTN. “MARV GAYE’S BROTHER, FRANKIE, DID THREE TOURS VIETNAM. HE WAS A RAD OPERATOR. AND HE WOULD WRE MARV ALL THE TIME, SO MARV WAS GETTG A FIRSTHAND ACUNT OM HIS BROTHER ABOUT THE HORRORS OF THE WAR,” LEE SAID. “THOSE LETTERS WERE REALLY THE IMPET OF ONE OF THE GREATT ALBUMS OF ALL TIME, SO I WANTED TO CLU MARV’S SONGS.”THAT BACKSTORY ADDS ANOTHER LAYER TO THE LYRIC, “BROTHER, BROTHER, BROTHER/ THERE’S FAR TOO MANY OF YOU DYG...”RATHER THAN PLAY THE CLASSIC RERDG DURG THE FILM’S TENSE CLIMAX, LEE CID TO E A LTLE-KNOWN A PPELLA VERSN. FTGLY, WAS TRODUCED TO LEE BY HIS YOUNGER BROTHER. “YEAH, NO ONE’S HEARD ‘WHAT’S GOG ON’ SUNG LIKE THAT,” THE FILMMAKER SAID. “MY BROTHER CQUé [LEE] FOUND THAT ON THE TER.” IT’S PRENTED THE FILM WH ONLY SOME SLIGHT ENGEERG. “ORIGALLY, YOU HEAR A LTLE BLEED-THROUGH, THROUGH MARV’S HEADPHON, BUT WE TOOK THAT OUT.

Marv Gaye. Marv Pentz Gay, Jr. Was Marv Gaye gay?

Marv Gaye’s “What’s Gog On” is one of the most famo songs of all time, but those who watch Spike Lee’s new war film Da 5 Bloods will hear an entirely new way: stripped of soothg and soulful orchtratn, leavg only the late sger’s priste voice, echog ’s almost ghost-like, sgg of bygone pa renewed—and that’s exactly why the filmmaker chose for his Netflix war ’s mic was one of the first thgs Lee add to the project when he and wrer Kev Willmott (who shared an Osr wh Lee for BlacKkKlansman) changed the script om the story of four old Vietnam vets on a treasure hunt to add the dimensn of four Black men grapplg wh why they fought so hard for a untry that never fully valued them. “And we wanted to clu the mic of one of the [greatt] albums of all time, my opn—Marv Gaye’s What’s Gog On. Although Gaye did not personally serve Vietnam, he crafted as a kd of ncept album om the pot of view of a soldier returng to unrt and upheaval back home.

“Marv Gaye’s brother, Frankie, did three tours Vietnam. Gaye was killed April 1984 after gettg the middle of an argument between his mother and father.
