i thought i knew all of marvins music until i heard this one and fell in lov with it. there will never be another like marvin gaye. if he was alive today, he would have another hit out. R.I.P.
Of all of Marvin's cuts 'My Last Chance' and 'Let's Get It On' got me so much 'play' in high school. Marvin I want to personally thank you for this song because without them my love life would have been 'toast' :-D. An amazing ballad!
Hey Rudogzoldiez, PLEASE tell me where to get this version. I have the original. This is the one that got the radio play. PLEASE, contact me ASAP so I can get a copy. Thank you SO MUCH for the post.
Exactly! lol that's what made me rush out & get the single back then....He & Mary Wells are on the other side of the cassette with "Once Upon A Time".
OMG...............I haven't this song in over ten years. Thank you so much for posting this song. I was a young buck when I heard it, but I'll take old school over new school anyday.
With all of Marvin's great songs, this one arguably may be his best. Done between the years of 1970 - 1972, but it wasn't released as a single (late 1990) until 6 1/2 years after his untimely death (1984). It's the perfect "blue lights in the basement" song with his sensual, and seductive voice singing over the outstanding musical arrangements by some of the best studio musicians ever assembled, The Funk Brothers. Simply an incredible song from one of the best to ever take a stage, hands down!!

Besides "I Want You", it doesn't get any better than this. R.I.P. Marvin. Your contributions to SOUL music will live forever--Thank God!!
