The brother was talking about laying his seed either on her or around her. "I have never cummed this way before"!

Yeah, he had it really bad for Jan. Maybe she was the inspiration for "Santified Pussy" also? LOL!

I doubt it but who knows with him.

Funky! I love this song

I watched this special on Marvin's life on PBS a few weeks ago and a lot of things that I didn't know was revealed. After seeing how he went off the deep end during the whole Sexual Healing era with those demons literally eating away at him, it made his death that more like it was a gift inside of a curse. You have this LEGEND and who IMHO is the King to Aretha's Queen, degrading himself by singing bullshit like Sanctified Pussy, being a sexual deviant and damn near naked on stage like some old deadbeat pimp after years of such genius and classy work. I rather him die and let his legacy remain intact than for him to continue making such bullshit that Trey Songz or Chris Brown wouldn't much sing and completely erasing everything he previously stood for.

I have never listened to any of his 80's music past Sexual Healing and I completely understand now. SMDH

R.I.P. Marvin.

Too bad they can't get a movie together about his life all these years later, but I think with Marvin having been married to Berry's sister, and the things written about him, might be better left to the books.

It would've been interesting to speculate what kind of music he would've put out, and how a sex addict like him would've fared in the internet age... you know he would've shown up on TMZ, and sex tapes would've surfaced.

Prince and Marvin are 2 totally different artists with 2 totally different catalogs of music.

Prince was never a soul man or the vocalist that Marvin was. Prince has never tried to make an album like Whats Goin On nor does he have any song that is as definitive as I Heard It Through The Grapevine nor does he have any memorable duets. Prince is an artist that follows the beat of his own drum, a pioneer and a kickass musician. I don't know how Prince fits into thread but clearly he has no place here. Prince is known for prancing on stage in a g-string and stilettos singing Darling Nikki. Marvin is NOT. This is like Aretha singing about a nigga busting a nut all over her face like its Holy Water to a cheesy ass Cyndi Lauper beat. A hot ass mess.com

I love Marvin so there is no "of course I wouldn't be into".... I Want You (song) is my favorite Marvin song. I Want You (album) is in my top 10 of greatest albums ever made. Much love to Leon Ware as well. I have the original cd of Whats Goin On and the deluxe anniversary edition, 2 of his dvds and his tribute album with the likes of D'Angelo & Erykah Badu among his other work. You don't know me or my tastes so don't ASSume.

Funny we have the same favorite song and album by Marvin. I find it interesting that the subject matter of I Want You doesn't bother you. It's not as good a song, but I wouldn't say "Sanctified Lady" is any more vulgar than "Soon I'll Be Loving You Again." Not to mention all those background moans on "Since I Had You"...

The subject matter doesn't bother me, I'ma freak myself.... its the song itself that I have a problem with. Its just trash, doesn't matter who sings it. The cheesy ass beat, the backgrounds that are horribly laid, the wack mixing and Marvin himself sounds out of it. Rick James would cringe at this and say that cocaine is a helluva drug. Clearly this song was meant to be heard and not the way that he would have done it in his right mind. People praising this bullshit that is clearly just the record label's way to make money off his death scares me.
