LYRICS:
You are my pride and joy
And I just love you, little darlin'
Like a baby boy loves his toy
You've got kisses sweeter than honey
And I work every day to give you all I know
And that's why you're my pride and joy
And I'm tellin' the world
You're my (pride and joy) pride and joy (pride and joy)
I believe I'm no (baby boy) baby boy (baby boy)
But I know you're mine (pride and joy)
My pride and joy (pride and joy)
Yeah baby (baby boy) Yeah baby (baby boy)
You, you are my pride and joy
And a love like mine, yeah baby
Is something nobody can ever destroy
You pick me up (pick me up) when I'm down (when I'm down)
And when we go out, pretty baby
You shake up the whole town (whole town)
And that's why (that's why)
I believe you're my (you're my) pride and joy (pride and joy)
[Repeat and fade:]
(Pride and joy)[x4] (baby boy)[x2]
(Pride and joy) My pride and joy (pride and joy)
And I love you like a baby loves his toy (pride and joy)
My mom loved this man and this was the last video she watched before passing the next day. I love and miss you so much mama!
RIP.
❤❤❤
He does it with such class
All of these years later...his talent remains unmatched. RIP great sir.
Marvin Gaye was awesome. Dancing has come a long way.
Happy Heavenly Birthday Marvin!❤ Continue to RIHP Great King!❤
and this ladies and gentlemen, is why marvin gaye is my favorite singer.
Great Song in the style that only Marvin can do.
I believe this one came out in 1963 and was Marvin's first number one song on the R&B list in Billboard. Was also his first top 10 on the Hot 100. A big influence on the Beatles in those early days when they hadn't yet left Britain.
Not quite number one, see above Wikipedia article. It was number two on the R&B charts Reached number 10 on Billboard Hot 100
Amazing, the king of soul of Motown ❤❤❤💪💪💪💪🙏🙏🌹
Our Pride and Joy is 16 years old today. He was born premature, and was not supposed to make it, but God said otherwise. So thankful, and Pride and Joy the world is yours!
CONGRATULATIONS!!
@@glittergoth7167 Thank you!
MY FAVORITE MARVINGAYE RECORD. WHAT I LIKE ABOUT IT IS THE SIMPLE LYRICS AND BEAT.
That was the good old days good memories good fun just nothing like today 😊
D’une grande élégance à couper le souffle...Triste destin 🌹🥰
now that's what I call music'' the brilliant marvin gaye '' effortless ''passionate''soulful'one of the best of all time''soulgray''
Without a doubt, an all time favorite!!!!
The best two minute pop single ever. It has everything.
Perfect!
This isn’t “pop”.
Now THAT was swag! And he didn't even have to try!
almondyJoy And consider that he was a black man playing to a primarily white audience in the ‘60s! You can’t fake that swagger! (reminds me of President Obama, tbh ❤️)
No offense but both of u are definitely over 50
@@sisterelijah4267 😂😂🥰
He was The Man!!
Marvin was taken away from us wayyyy too soon. RIP wobderful Marvin Gaye!
Our Pride and Joy is 20 tomorrow. Just began his second year in college. Won't He Do It!
I hear a little Brook Benton influence the way Marvin slowly draws out the line my pride and joy
I agree.
Fabulous performance clip... wow, the backing vocals too!
#RIP MARVIN GAYE
Thanks to the uploader.!
Martha and the Vandellas
One of the greatest hits ever!
2022 still listening 🎶 👌
Marvin Pentz Gaye will always be my Pride And Joy 😉 I remember this when it came out in 1963 I was 9 years old I used to hear my grandmother & aunt sing this around the house & I would hear it played on the radio they would be singing too but they didnt know I was dancing. 😊 Marvin Gaye will always be my favorite male entertainers I named my son after Marvin ☺ & in 2019 I am 64 years old ( Thank You JESUS ) & 56 years later Marvin P.Gaye is still. My Pride And Joy 🎵🎶🎼💖🎵🎶🎼💖
One of my all time favorite records!
Marvin was the real deal. He personified cool. His wasn't just a cool style; he was pure cool in his understated but totally with-it hipness. His coolness totally transcended any other categories of cool.
coyotesong. Back in the day when this came out didnt know about. The dancers was. White lol my bad
A great loss. We were robbed of his music brilliance and his presence.
U can thank his punk ass deadbeat dad for that. Killing his son. So evil!
How could anyone not get up and dance to this song. Marvin Gaye was so fantastic unfortunately he had a father who was what one African-American friend explained to me as "old black". I asked my black friend what that meant. He said the men who were in the sixties singing many of them had fathers who had a really hard life and they had an attitude that being strong met always respecting them never crying never show your emotions. And like David Ruffin's father Marvin Gaye's dad would say" you think you're something but you ain't nothing". He would say that in hopes that his son would prove him wrong. It was an old style of discipline and I told my black friend there a lot of older white men that were like that also when most of America was rural. They were hard hard men. The black man I had as a friend in the 70s said a lot of the generation of fathers that were black from Marvin Gaye and Sam Cooke David Ruffin Etc had an old saying" I brought you into this world boy and I can take you out" how sad. Marvin Gaye's dad shot him. Marvin Gaye's dad may have believed what he was doing was right at the time. But I'll bet later he really regretted it.. somewhere deep inside I know he loved his son. Of course I didn't know about all this I learned it from a black friend of mine. I don't judge anybody whatever the case may be I am so grateful that Marvin Gaye lived on this Earth and gave us so many great songs this is one of the greatest. I could listen to this song over and over again. Also that's song called" can I get a witness'. Of course that smacks of his church days. All those young black men in Motown and the great groups in 1964 were all raised in the church and there was so much singing there. No matter what they made history and their songs will live on forever for another generation to love. Good Music Never Dies. I know Marvin Gaye is in heaven and singing in the Heavenly Choir and if somehow I am privileged enough to get to heaven God might let me hear Marvin Gaye sing. I love him and Sam Cooke. I was a teenager from 1964 to 1972 some of the greatest songs were made then especially in Motown in 1964. I was amazed to find out that Smokey Robinson wrote A lot of the songs for The Temptations. He was a great songwriter. And then he formed his own group . I remember being broken hearted at 16 after the love of my life dumped me and listening to Baby Baby Don't Cry. By Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. I have to say that song got me through things I love Smokey Robinson and I'm so glad that these singers gave us all of these beautiful songs The Marvelettes The Temptations the impressions. Etc the world would not be the same without them. When I'm depressed I just need to listen to these songs and I always feel better
How can people not love this song, it is great. Still here in 12/2019
Coming to America brought me here.

❤ miss you never forgotten rip Marvin
This song was #2 on the r&b charts back on the day Martin Luther King gave his I Have a Dream speech.
2023 and still listening 👂🥇
Listening to this sitting next to my mother who just finished telling me of how my now-deceased grandpa hooked my grandma with this song! He was a shoemaker who would see her walking past his shop once she finished her overnight shift as a nurse. One day he called her in, gave her 75 cents and asked her to get this record for him at the shop nearby. She brought it back to him and he asked her if she would listen to it with him. She ended up dozing off at some point lol but he respectfully left the room to give her privacy and let her sleep.
26 years of age difference, married only 30 years because of his untimely passing in ‘94. RIP Grandpa ♥️
Wow
Great piano work
Still here in 2021. Marvin was indeed the real deal.

LEGEND and a GENIUS
Handsome brotha
WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From a mad keen 74yo Aussie fan.
Younger Marvin Gaye fans need to look up his earlier TV appearances as well as recordings, to know the full spectrum.
“Now you see, I love the Lord! You understand what I’m sayin’? I love the Lord’ah! And if lovin’ the Lord is wrong, I don’t wanna be right!”
That was during the love days when men talked and sang good things about their queen! Yeah! Pride & Joy!
Yes this song brings back a lot of good memories we as young adults would go in our school park and have dance contest and at that time l could really dance on Marvin Gaye music every race loved this song.
Bravissimo, bellissimo, unico ♥♥♥

LEGENDARY MATERIAL! THANKS!
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
I just found that out today... I LOVE Marvin... and never heard this before..
Don't know about "swag" but I do know Marvin was a GIANT and the backup singers are pretty good as well. Believe they called themselves Martha and the Vandellas!!
Wikipedia - "Pride and Joy" is a 1963 single by Marvin Gaye,[1] released on the Tamla label. The single, co-written by William "Mickey" Stevenson, Gaye and Norman Whitfield, and produced by Stevenson, was considered to be a tribute to Gaye's then-girlfriend, Anna Gordy.[2] The album version of the single featured on Gaye's second album, That Stubborn Kinda Fellow is different in parts to the single version presenting a more jazz effect than the gospel-emulated version that became a single. The song was also Gaye's first top ten pop single peaking at number ten on the chart and just missed the top spot of the R&B singles chart peaking at number two. The song also helped continue Gaye's successful hit streak as the singer would score another Top 40 pop hit at the end of that year with "Can I Get a Witness".
Love it
Again hot piano
Too bad Marvin's Dad didn't view his son as his pride & joy. Instead, he viewed his gun as his pride and joy as he shot son Marvin twice after an argument, killing him. "Dear" Dad.
Classic Man...
Great old music!
marvin gaye big time.
Remind me of my grandmother
I really wish he was my Dad im a 54 yr. Old women now i said it & theres nothing anyone can say to change my mind!!!!!!! & i'll say it again i wish Marvin Gaye was my DAD.
I love this song because I like signing this song to my family
"Pride and Joy!!!"
I have a twin brother named Marvin my what a great song ❤️
One of my favorite Marvin Gaye tunes. Please note that is not Martha and the Vandellas in the clip. Those are just dancers
My man is smooth
I RECALL THIS SONG VERY WELL
FROM BESSIE, JOYCE AND ANNA
RENT PARTIES
2023 yassss honey

Love this....
Mr. Gaye
Temaso pride and yoy la rompe muy bueno
That what i am talk about one only💖💖💖
In this song Marvin was singing about his wife Anna Gordy. In his lyrics he sang " That's why I work 7 day's a week, and give you all of my money, cause like a baby love's his toy, you are my Pride and Joy !" His wife Anna, Berry Gordy's older sister was 17 years older than Marvin, you know that had to be a stressful situation, got to please her and her insecurities, and please your boss too that sign's your paycheck.
Terri Garr one of the backup dancers
fabulous, thanks for posting
Terri was one of the dancers on some of the shows.So was Toni Basil.
Teri Garr 3rd from the right ?
I wonder if Ivory Joe Hunter was playing The Piano on this Song. Whoever did, was fantastic!
This was his first big hit. How come I've never heard of it?
Stubborn Kind Of Fellow was his first big hit
Wow!!!!
Those dancers
wow, i didn't know that female backup dancers were allowed to be fully dressed! D:
1965. Ok now do understand? Couples had to sleep in twin beds on the TV shows back then.
It was an entirely different time. No doubt about that. I'm no prude but I'll take the 'old-fashioned ways' over the current crop of skanks with their piercings and tattoos any day. Their shrill sense of style is completing grating on my sensibilities.
Sounds like Claudette Rogers singing in background

happy birthday
