Sexual Healing Lyrics
19 comments? 19 comments? This is Marvin Gaye's work, People. 19??? At its time in history, this was one sensual song. And it still is! "Open up and let me in" and "be there to relieve me" was big stuff back when this song hit the charts. Obviously a song about making love. What I like is he uses the word "love." It's not dishpan dirty like most of today's song...recreational sex minus true loving emotion. Gaye knew how to sing a LOVE song that was also sensual. What a great talent lost...
Almost 4 wks later and still no comments. That's just wrong. Classic song. One of the most romantic songs every writter/performed. It's so sensual. Makes me think of the perfect night beside someone special...tracing his body with my fingers as he lies on his side; talking and laughing softly while looking into each other's eyes; just basking in the glow of love. Mmmmmmm.....I digress :( GREAT GREAT track.

You're a cruel cruel person.

My mom told me she heard that when Marvin Gaye and his ex-wife got divorced that, as part of the court settlement, she would receive all the money earned from his next single. Apparently he wrote this song and thought it was so stupid and that would completely bomb as a single and his ex-wife would end up not getting much money off of it. It actually did extremely well in contrast to what Marvin Gaye intended.
Verrrrry sexy song. I've always wanted to write a song like Sexual Healing but perhaps my lack of experience is the reason why... :p
anyhoo this has to be one of my favourite songs
marvin gaye is indeed the shyte.
masturbation. the ad libbing proves it.
but you don't hear me tho! :)
lol sexy.......wonder how many babies were made during this song!!!
Eddie Murphy sang a portion of this song in the movie "I Spy" during a funny scene where Owen Wilson's character was trying to woo his female colleague in a back room. Eddie Murphy: "Hey! Let me at least see the goods!" (after wilson's character turns off the eyes and ears piece).
Haha man if that's true it's a complete bummer. This song is definitely one of his best. I just grabbed up his greatest hits for kicks and no doubt Marvin Gaye is the shit.
I love this song! Maxwell remix version of this song is hot 2! Anybody else heard it?
yo fuck this "Maxwell" shit man! Get outta here dude, that joint ain't hot! I literally just made an account to tell you that!

I have the acapella of this song, He says, darling please dont procrastinate, Its not good to masturbate. Its very clear in the acapella of the song, There are also some other parts that must have been cut from the song. For example: "Baaaaaby, When i should be sleep at night, I stay up and read" LOL, seriously Marvin Gaye says that, I think its possible that most of this song was adlibbed. Maybe just the chorus and the baaaaaaaaaaby, and vocal melody were prewritten. I do like this song a lot though, Its sad that there are 50+ Marvin Gaye's greatest hits albums and probably more.
Waves Of Delusion ur mom is wrong about this song, but right about him making an album to pay his ex wife, this song was inspired by a writer interviewing him in is apartment in belgum and there was weird porn scattered all over and the reporter told him he needs "sexual healing" and i thought it would make a good song
