. "It's Madness"@en . "\"It's Madness\" was the second posthumous record released by American soul singer Marvin Gaye, released off his Dream Of A Lifetime album, in 1985.The second posthumous release following up the successful hit, \"Sanctified Lady\", which missed a chance of giving Gaye his fourteenth number-one R&B single; \"It's Madness\" was brought out from old Motown archives from the early-'70s.The song's melancholy vibe was reminiscent of Marvin's recordings during the 1970s and could've likely have been recorded as a demo for Sammy Davis, Jr., who briefly signed with the label (Gaye had also wanted to give Davis the song \"Dream of a Lifetime\" though he was unable to).Written by Marvin and produced with an eighties pop flourish by his longtime mentor Harvey Fuqua, the song was released and peaked at number fifty-five on the R&B singles chart.
