This is Marvin Gaye’s take on the popular song, “Yesterday” by the Beatles. Despite “Yesterday” being the most covered song of all time, Paul McCartney himself named Marvin’s as his favourite cover in 2019:
In Marvin’s 1985 biography Divided Soul, David Ritz wrote:
Sliding from voice to voice, Ma...
[Intro]
Mmm
[Verse 1]
Oh, yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now, I need a place to hide away
Oh, I, I believe in yesterday
[Verse 2]
Suddenly
People, I ain't half the man I used to be, no
There's a heavy, heavy shadow hanging over me
Yesterday, came all too suddenly
[Chorus]
Oh, why did she have to go?
I don't know
Tell you, I don't know
The little girl wouldn't say
Woo, I must have, must have said something wrong
Now I long, long, long for yesterday
[Verse 3]
Oh, talking about yesterday
Love, love, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Lord I, I believe now, in yesterday, sure enough
[Bridge]
Mmm
Mmm mm
[Chorus]
Well, I must have, must have said something wrong
Now I long, long for yesterday
[Verse 1]
Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now, I need a place to hide away
Oh, I, I believe in
[Outro]
I want you to know I believe in
Yester, yester, yesterday
