"Your Unchanging Love" is a 1967 single released by American soul singer Marvin Gaye on the Tamla label.[1]

Overview

Written by Holland–Dozier–Holland, the song was featured on Marvin's Moods of Marvin Gaye album. Released during a time when Gaye was releasing hit duets by Kim Weston and Tammi Terrell, this was a rare solo detour that was successful enough to garner a top 40 pop charting where it peaked at number 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 making it the fourth top forty single issued from Moods.[2][3]

Cash Box called it "a light, pulsing, medium-paced R&B romp that should see plenty of spins and sales."[4]

The song was musically conceived on the same musical background as Marvin's landmark single, "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)", and performed better chart-wise than their previous single, "Little Darling (I Need You)".
