Marvin Gaye has his way with our national anthem

There's been a lot of flag-waving, speech-making, and other displays of politically charged patriotism going on lately. What better way to close out convention season than with a bipartisan bang?

I've always been sort of a national anthem purist, never eager to hear musicians riffing around too much with "The Star-Spangled Banner." For my man, Marvin, however, I'm making a big, fat exception...although I'm not sure an anthem should sound so incredibly sexy. 'Seems almost inappropriate, doesn't it?

Enjoy!

R.I.P., Marvin. You were gone way too soon.
