I've been thinking that Maxwell bears a slight resemblance to Marvin Gaye with his beard, only sexier. He'd star wonderfully in a biographical film about Marvin and/or perhaps on a tribute album to him. Love Marvin...& Maxwell.
"...Do you want to hear me scream, beg & plead? Pleeease, pleeeeeeasee come back home to me girl....Oooooh baby...." This song just tears my heart OUT!!!
he was on top of his game because so many people know now just wht his message was bout never will be forgotten

The pleasant memories of the man I have always regarded as my father's look alike. I even got an opportunity to meet him on a casual day out jogging in sunny California (Santa Monica beach). What a date to remember. I'm now genuinely sold on being a bonafide easy listen and subscriber!!! Keep up the good music Pandora! You're totally awesome. I'm sold!!!!!
O.M.G. I remember when I was 15 years old and I thought I was in love with someone who lived about 6 blocks. My mama was strick and wasn't allowed to even talk with a male figure. But Marvin Gaye, was my distant lover. I still love him from the grave. Rest in peace Marvin.

Reminds me of the early days of "Long-Distance" Love. The reason I'm here united in Marriage 11yrs. strong! Love & miss you Marvin.
I love this song. Marvin Gaye is my favorite all time artist. Been in this situation, with a distant lover. Great lyrics, great music and great vocals...he was the real deal. RIP Marvin.
Wow, this song makes me feel so many things. Above it all, I feel love and tenderness the way you caressed me through our summer nights. And I am just proud to say that we were there. we were one.
We were both married to other people. This song brought us back together this time in marriage and has been for 23 years. When Marvin Gaye passed away we lost a legendary singer and will never be replaced.
I 1st saw Marvin G. @ The Appollo in the early '70s... I remember my Mom cry'n & it made me sad, but she was happy, I was lost... Now I understand & it's beautiful... I was with my Mom when we heard that brother Marvin had died & we bother cried... RIP Marvin & RIP Mary Louise, I miss you bother... Edwin
There is a Live version of "Distant Lover" that every Marvin Gaye fan should hear. He was an Artist that could actually sound better Live than on his recorded material.
