I have been trying to think of this song for years. Could only remember the yeah, yeah, yeah, but not the name of the song. Then the words "stubborn kinda fella" just hit me tonite and I found this. A local band (Buffalo NY) used to play this all the time. I'm so happy!
@222billp Well first in those days you had to have talent and know how to actually sign which is no longer a requirement in today's music you actuallly have people calling Jay-Z an artist forgetting that Prince by the age of 18 had self mastered playing close to 20 different instruments, go figure.
I"ve loved this song from the first time I ever heard it...that was when I was in the Army. FT Polk Louisiana..1963...I never became a fan of Marvin Gayes and I had forgotten this song until I heard a bit of it in the film about Early Motown
I know I may get it for this but what the hell, lol Record producer Phil Spector once commented that when he first heard this song on the radio, he shrieked in excitement and nearly ran over somebody so he had to pull over. He was blown away by this song. I think the sound of this song influenced his Wall of Sound.
i 'm gonna love ya ,in every way. oh yeah , that was one of my favorites back in the day.I sure miss those days back in the 60's I had some clean fun as a teenager., loved to dance.
Stubborn kinda fella, I'm gonna love you in every way, since I first heard this in 1962, my sophomore year of high school here in southern califirnia. I still love all Motown!
Hi! This song is one of my five prefered songs, in all the songs I've heard.First time I've heard it, it was Stevie Wonder singing it, so I thought it was one of his songs, but since I've knew that it was M.Gaye's song, I've had the chords & lyrics & have recorded it immediatly!5* without problems! THKS for sharing this song. BYE!
In '62, I walked out of my house in LA and heard Stubborn Kinda Fella blastin from the apartment across the street - them mu fuh's were partyin down! I instantly fell in love with the jam. Marvin had his muse goin on. Thanks brah! Johnny Pal of MangoDaville
WOW this really takes me back to the good ol days when Motown was poppin' hits out like popcorn. Marvin went from the janitor at Motown to one of their biggest stars and executors. He is truly an angel.
I heard that this was my mom's song back in the day! I know she likes the voices of Marvin, David Ruffin, Sam and Jow Williams. This record reminds me of her, and I didn't even know back when this was out....I mean, I wasn't born.
Danced the slow shag to this song at The Pad in Ocean Drive, SC, at the old Beach Club out on King's Hwy, and at the Gardenia Terrace in Myrtle Beac with Joey Hatchell a ga-zillion times...great song, great friends, great memories of high school in MB! Pook here...
You Can Find This Here Song On The "Motown Original Artist Karaoke" CD from the Singing Machine with the Four Tops on the cover. It's one of my '62 faves and it's also song #2(multiplex original vocal)& #10(original Motown instrumental)
Can Anyone Else Do This Song Written By Gaye-Gordy-Stevenson(Marvin Gaye-George Gordy-William "Mickey" Stevenson)from 1962(Released in July Of That Year)
I kinda did this 1962 Marvin Gaye classic at the karaoke bar in Chicago, even though most of the young people had never even heard of it....being from '62 and all
my favorite of all his hits what a song!!!
