Let's Get It On

I listened to this with my wife and now I'm pregnant, so - five stars.

Sex - The Album.

Far too sexy for me. Makes me feel uncomfortable. Fuck knows what that says about me.

Just so smooth. Who else could get away with a song called Let's Get It On and then a song three songs later called Keep Gettin It On. Unparalleled swagger.

Oh, oh, oh Marvin you have just brought me to climax. I've jizzed all over my mum's neck. Fetch me a glass of milk and a Snickers at once.

Let’s get it off

Fantastic. So good. Will resisten a million times. Makes me want to caress my plants.

Marvin Gaye, solely responsible for the baby boom of 1974

Let’s Get It On - Marvin Gaye 1. Let’s Get It On - This is a classic how else am I supposed to rate this? 5/5 2. Please Stay (Once You Go Away) - I would make love to this 100%, it’s Marvin Gaye. 5/5 3. If I Should Die Tonight - I’m such a sucker for this. Gives me Disney princess type love. I want it so bad. 5/5 4. Keep Gettin’ It On - This song makes me wanna grind all over somebody. 5/5 5. Come Get To This - I would skip around the city to this, dance around the living room with the LOML to this 5/5 6. Distant Lover - IF I COULD RATE THIS HIGHER I WOULD. SOO GOOD. One of my all time faves ever I hold this song so close to my heart it’s unreal. 1000000/5 7. You Sure Love To Ball - I’m such a sucker for the saxophone, imagine getting undressed to this song. I’d die for it. 5/5 8. Just To Keep You Satisfied - For some reason I can see this song in a ballroom. Enchanting, beautiful, elegant. 5/5 Notes: My ratings were way too low on OK Computer. I’m noting it as a 4/5 because I keep wanting to listen to it and I’m enjoying it way more.

Marvin's 13th and most successful album. This is smooth, smooth, smooth. A very easy listen. Some classify as smooth soul or slow jam. Sounds good to me. You definitely hear its influence on future late 70's/early 80's R&B and soul. Apparently, this album was a change in typical Motown recordings in that it was free-flowing album-oriented as opposed to their typical album containing-hit singles-next-to-each-other format. Certain artists have that liberty and I would think Marvin Gaye would be one of them at this point. The themes of these songs are very straight-forward: romance, lust and sex. Marvin's music and voice take it to another level. Some song highlights for me: the title track "Let's Get It On", "Keep Gettin' It On" - similar to the title track with a little more funk, "You Sure Love To Ball" - smooth jazz background music and a great female moan and "Just to Keep You Satisfied" - tremendous vocal performance with sweeping orchestral music. Really not a bad song on the album. I recommend listening to this album as a whole; there is a great flow to the music.

Love Marvin Gaye, love his voice, but this album is extraordinarily repetitive

i’m asexual but like i get it

One day in 1970, Marvin Gaye was like: "SEGGS!" Then, everybody turned to look at him.

My man Marvin gone too soon ❤️

Now that's more like it. Never listened to this one as much as What's Going On or Here My Dear for some reason but I should have! Another masterpiece. Always love the atmospheres he creates. Love him doing his own backing vocals and the interplay there. Listened to this one 2xs + deluxe edition bonus tracks.

3.5/5 Very horny album Sounds great, Marvin oozes soul Didn’t know Let’s Get it On had a literal sequel, or that it would better than the OG

4.1 - A luscious bedroom soundtrack strictly for grown folks, underpinned by sophisticated orchestration and Marvin Gaye's rich bari-tenor. Smooth and snag-free. My only knock is that "Keep Gettin' It On" sits lamely in the middle of the album as an unnecessary reprise of the title track.

If this album doesn't make you smile when it comes up, that's too bad, because it's a masterpiece. I've owned this lp for years but I don't remember where I got it and it doesn't have a cover. I've listened to it a lot though. 540 albums in with the generator and this one's a highlight.

An iconic album. It's like a soft slow and luxurious.............foot massage. Oooo yeah.....no tickling.

Holy cow. This is our second from Marvin Gaye (somehow we haven't had What's Going On yet? that doesn't seem right). While Here My Dear was a really excellent surprise, this album tops even that. Yeah, it's very obviously a collection of jams to bone to. But damn man, they are all (in more ways than one) bangers. I genuinely loved all but one track, and that one was still pretty cool. I wasn't expecting depth beyond the title track, as I really don't see people talking about this album, but it goes the distance. I can so strongly hear the influence that he had on guys like Frank Ocean. This is a new favorite R&B/Soul album for me, going into the all time fiver club. Favorite tracks: All but "You Sure Love to Ball," which is still a good song. Album art: Not entirely sure what Marvin is doing in this picture. Is he playing guitar behind his head? Is he holding a pizza box, winding up before he smashes it on the table in front of him? Is he just hitting a "raise the roof" emote style? No idea. But it's blurry, the font is pretty shitty, and it doesn't even matter because the music is that good. 5/5

There’s definitely a comparison here about the strong correlation between this album and actually ’getting it on’. It’s starts very strong. Using its best, time and tested proven moves. That intro that is damn near Pavlovian. It’s just great, gets everything loose, hits the right spots. Then it settles into pure smoothness. Going through the motions a bit, but still nice. Then it almost realises things have … fallen off the boil a little. So it goes back to the same moves of the opener, just a little less effective. Then more, nice, functional, smoothness … and then it just end a little bit too quickly without a satisfying ending. Just me? It’s an album that is our silk, a great background soundtrack. It’s more clearly named than any Ronseal product.

The horniest record EVER. I love Marvin Gaye, I love this sultry soul, but damned if this didn't hit me on the wrong day. I had sweat my ass off the day before and I had a long, crappy drive home and I've got to listen to this? I don't need that sort of..(ahem).. feeling for a long drive. Lol. I couldn't help but get a bit miffed, but Gaye pulls it all off in a brief 30 minutes, and made it all right by the end. Classic album , a definite 'must hear', and should be the default soundtrack for all sexy bedroom activities. (5/5)

What an absolute treat. This album has been in my collection for ages. I adore Marvin Gaye. He had the voice of an angel when he was on this earth and he is an angel up there now. Superb

Absolutely stunning. Listen to the deluxe version, and in particular the instrumental version of Cakes. A must have album for any music lover.

Has a hornier album ever been recorded? There might be a few others vying for the title, but the passion and soul that Marvin injects into this one with tracks like Let's Get it On, Keep Getting it On, Come Get to This, Distant Lover, and You Sure Love to Ball (which it turns out IS NOT a sports reference)put it at the pinnacle for me. Is ever sex needed a soundtrack, it found one here. That said, it does lend the album a one dimensional aspect that doesn't quite hold up to repeated listening, even if it doesn't overstay its welcome with a 32 minute runtime. Sure, it has his biggest commercial hit (and aruably greatest track), but the full package doesn't hold up for me the way that his other work does. Still, it earns a notable 4.5 that I'm reluctant to round up today.

Okay, let's get this out of the way at the beginning. "Let's Get It Own" has become a cliche. At the prompting of this album today I looked it up and saw commercials using this track for Kraft cheese singles, Applebee's, Reese's Easter bunnies, and Mr. Goodwrench. Has any other song been used in more advertisements over the years? Does that blunt the original impact or amplify it, I wonder? This is a new listen for me and we just had Marvin Gaye last week with the album, "What's Going On?" I guess getting on is going on. Sorry, bad attempt at humor. “Let’s Get it On” is the only song I’ve ever heard of from this album, much less heard. Time to hear how much I may, or may not, enjoy this one. So, for an album that consistently gets included on those critical all time lists I was underwhelmed on my first listen. There are some interesting themes going on about sex, love, and connection. To me the repeated lyrics take on the feel of an incantation. Gaye is bringing his will onto this moment of love, to manifest it into being. Horniness and affection blending together. The music, the lyrics, the tempo; its all suited to soft lights and intimate moments. And I did not connect with it at all. I found myself watching how much time was left on each track. This album is getting a three from me because I can hear the competence in the music but find myself indifferent. I had trouble with "What's Going On" as well. Marvin Gaye's music and voice triggers my impatience and invites my mind to wander to other things. Add him to the list of critical darlings that are not for me, I guess. 3/5

There is a reason, a very good reason, why most people only know one song on this album.

120. Let's Get It On - Marvin Gaye (1973) 6.22.26 Variety: 4 Adequacy: 5 Listenability: 5 Uniqueness: 5 Emotionality: 5 = 4.8 rounded up to 5 "I want to do something freaky to you " Having just had What's Going On a few albums ago, I'm curious how that listening will compare. I'm much more familiar with this one and have listened to it many times, so no spoiler really that I dig it quite a bit. Gaye is one of those guys who had real quality material all the way through his career, but his early 70s run is pretty legendary and this is another that is massively influential. When it comes to horny ass music, this is ground zero for everything from Barry White and Issaac Hayes to the Isely Brothers, Prince, Outkast and beyond. THE TRACKS Side one "Let's Get It On" - The ur-panty dropper track. This one lives up in the rarified air with the other all time great popular hits. Iconic and shorthand for the entire idea of bedroom music. Funky, soulful, and a blazing vocal performance by Mr. Gaye, it's got an supremely hummable melody that sustains the entire length of the song, and from the opening wah wah guitar that seems to be talking, to the subtle backing vocals to the small string accents, the flute, the handclaps... This remains the preeminent example of the genre and I think will live on well after a lot of our popular music from the 20th Century is forgotten. "Please Don’t Stay (Once You Go Away)" - Gaye takes the old R&B romantic plea template and flips it to be much more specific. He's not asking his lover to reconsider leaving him, but leaving his bed. Metaphors aside this still manages to be a pretty classy take on the subject matter, and we get another wonderfully arranged piece of funky soulfulness. "If I Should Die Tonight" - And who says the whole album has just one thing on its mind. This number is as romantic and lovely as anything, and Gaye's smooth as hell, emotional delivery drives the idea home with confidence that sacrifices not an ounce of vulnerability. Lesser singers would go on to be just as sultry, but few can match the sincerity Gaye infused his vocals with. I believe Marvin here. Barry White always has a little wink in his eye. "Keep Gettin' It On" - Unintentionally or not, this one always gets a chuckle from me when it pops its head back through the bedroom door. "Oh yeah, in case you forgot...". It really is more or less a refrain in the form of an extra track, but how are you going to deny more the same thing you love so much, right? Completely unnecessary, and maybe even padding but welcome nonetheless. Side two "Come Get to This" - Mr. Gaye seems to be ahead of his time in being open about his wants and desires. Differentiating his needs vs. his wants, using "I" statements, setting intentions and not agendas. People could have been following his model this whole time! Someone needs to write a book using the philosophy he lays out here. With the permission of his famously litigious estate of course. "Distant Lover" - More even than the title track, I think this one would be an influence on the slow jam "I need you" track that would become the calling card of acts like Boyz II Men. Once again I can't state how effectively believable Haye is in his delivery. He's up there with James Brown in that regard for me. "You Sure Love to Ball" - Can a 53 year old song make a modern listener blush? If any can, it's this one. And if the last track was the template for Boyz II Men, than this one does the same for Prince, Usher, D'Angelo, and Ginuwine. The innuendo is tossed away for just plain old straightforwardness. The saxophone and the harp keep it classy still though, along with Gaye's subdued delivery. This could have been some raunchy material in lesser hands, but this is still somehow style and grace the whole way through. "Just to Keep You Satisfied" - We end on a breakup song that still manages to be a romantic and gorgeously arranged, still very tasteful look back. HIGHLIGHTS - "Let's Get It On" - "Please Don’t Stay (Once You Go Away)" - "If I Should Die Tonight" - "Keep Gettin' It On" - "Come Get to This" - "Distant Lover" - "You Sure Love to Ball" MIDLIGHTS - LOWLIGHTS - FINAL THOUGHTS Definitely nowhere as deep and though provoking as What's Going On, this one instead soars into the same stratosphere on pure joy and passion for the subject matter. There are sexier albums, there are certainly nastier albums, and there are more romantic albums, but it's hard to think of any that have such an alchemically perfect mix of the three. This album must have been seen as much more risqué back in the day, but I think too much is made of the content of the lyrics while the amazing arrangements and playing are ignored. The guys in the studio supporting Gaye here deserve a special callout. There's a warm wall of sound all around him the whole way through that wraps you up like a blanket, but is never overwhelming or a detriment to his vocals. I can easily see someone listening to this now and calling out how samey a lot of the tracks are. And while I can sympathize, I don't much care as when an album-length variation on the same theme works, it works. Especially when the vibe is the goal. And the vibe is king here. This album is just as romantic and heady as it is sensual and powerfully intense. Listen to that first track and then the last track in a row and you get a microcosm of the album's themes and approaches. There's a TON of variety on here if you think in terms of mode and technique. The instrumentation I think is where some people would get tied up in that sort of criticism. The arrangements on here make this feel like a song suite or cycle with variations on a theme. And when the theme is so strong, the music can be more subtle in it's differences from track to track. Anyway, why I find it necessary to defend this album is beyond me. It either works for you or doesn't. Maybe you're one of those people who can absolutely love the title track and could take or leave the rest. That's fine, but I think this one requires at least one full listen before you write it off. An album that more than deserves its place on the list, and while lighter in tone and subject matter than What's Going On, I think remains the better listen for me.

holy fuck this shit is smooth. if romance was an album

great work, funky tunes, touching lyrics

Sexy, soulful jazz. This is an album where you can feel the music in your soul, in your person

I love marvin, if a dude played this song in the car w me id lowk fuck him (apa walkom) so sexual got me feeling something... oooh... sorry got a little off track there favourite song(s): title track, if i should die tonight

Ugh Marvin Gaye is the coolest. Really enlightening knowing the sexual content was a way to cope with childhood trauma. Also "quiet storm" is an amazing sub genre. I want to know what he's doing in the album art. I love this album.

Smooth Sexy Soul

There's not a lot to say about this - other than to argue if it or "What's Going On?" is better. I lean slightly to this.

Ah, Marvin Gaye. Beautiful voice, well constructed songs. A pleasure to listen to.

What a great ‘mood’ record this is, from clearly a man who was deeply in love at the time. From the fantastic backing singer group to the exceptionally timed horn section moments, and a voice that oozes emotion. What a great and timeless record this is.

holy bangers. definitely night time music

If you like amazing male vocals, soul, and (this is key) sexy, sexy lyrics, this album is for you! Luckily, I like all of those things.

Love this album. Definitely in my top 100 albums.

9.25/10, great album

Epitome of '70s soul. This is a perfect album.

Mr. Gaye! Mr. Gaye! Question from the Gazette! You just released one of the most successful, influential, and well-produced records of the 1970s just 2 years ago! It tackled complex topics surrounding racism and politics, and made a solid case for being one of the greatest albums of all time. What will you do next? Marvin Gaye: 😏

Just a dope album with great vocals obviously but the band is also super tight and make the most of every track. No skips and at 30 some minutes it’s a really easy album to sit through and vibe with.

What's getting on, S? The spree of MG's What's Going On, Here My Dear, and Let's Get It On has convinced me he was the master of the concept album, a mode I'd thought cursed. He matches form with function perfectly, and it all starts with how he uses his voice. Sonically, this is consistent to the point of repetition, but as the record is only 35 minutes long it becomes this perfect expression of his sentiment.

Obviously the title track is a classic, still imitated till this day, never as good as the original. The entire album is the embodiment of classic R&B soul music, his vocals, instrumentation, everything about this album had so many impacts on future music. Classic

Only knew Gaye's 'What's Going On' album, so this was a new one for me. The first listen I didn't have it on loud enough and felt a bit underwhelmed. Evidently my ears just needed to adjust... when it finished I put it straight back on and, wow, his voice just hit me. And 'If I Should Die Tonight'... poor Marvin.

there is no song more emblematic of sex than Let's Get It On. It's archetypal to the point of no longer being lowbrow. It is our shared language, and it is powerful, and it is glorious.

Oh my, this albulm has been my favorite so far, the rhythm was great. 10/10

It’s a shame that this album is solely remembered for its title track because the rest of the album is truly “all killer, no filler.” Every single song is a carefully-crafted, passionate masterpiece that showcases all the different flavors of love. Tracks like “I Should Die Tonight” are inescapable representations of passionate and unconditional love, and songs like “Please Stay” are of course musical sex, but it’s songs like “Just To Keep You Satisfied” and “Distant Lover” that really make the album for me. The former is a complex goodbye song, and the latter synthesizes this heartbreak with the rest of the album’s longing: you can hear both the longing and pain in Gaye’s desperate pleas at the end of the song. This album perfectly sets the indescribable intricacies of love to music.

2-3 Standout songs go beyond 5 stars and lift the slightly less good (but still groovin) tracks up from a 4. I'd say 4.5 but roundin' up.

It must have been hard even for Marvin Gaye to follow up What’s Goin’ On? (if we skip the Trouble Man soundtrack); having dealt with social issues and the environment, Gaye went for something a little more private, a little more sensual on Let’s Get It On. There are terrific tracks here and Gaye’s genius, especially as a vocalist, is apparent throughout. The backing singers are brilliant, I thought - no, wait, that’s all Marvin (except when it’s The Originals on Just to Keep You Satisfied). The jams are glorious and the only criticism is the brevity - a few tracks feel like kernels of ideas not quite fully formed and at half an hour - well, look, I guess that’s long enough for what Marvin had in mind…

One of the finest. Masterful, moving, soulful, spiritual and heartfelt. A wonderful example of the enduring power of music by one of its greatest exponents.

It took me multiple days to psych myself up to listen to this on account of my conservative religious upbringing seizing me in a way I didn't anticipate, and that I'm still trying to make sense of. I mean, this is a significantly less sinful album than, say, Motley Crue's Dr. Feelgood, which I listened to last week without any trepidation. But then again, that album, like so many others, basically accepts the societal framing that sex is something dirty and shameful (Vince Neil and the boys just happen to like dirty, shameful things). What I think I'm perceiving in reaction to Gaye - what feels dangerous about him - is that he rejects that framing entirely, instead portraying sex as something to be affirmatively celebrated rather than just surreptitiously engaged in, a naughty little itch that needs scratched every so often. Once I realized this, the spiritual dimension that Gaye intended for this album - which I had previously been suspicious of - opened up to me, and I could glimpse some of why he found the making of this album so liberating. I don't expect everyone who hears this to have that experience; for many - maybe even most - it will be enough that the title track still signals amorousness like nothing else in Western music, and that "Come Get to This" is beautiful and fleeting, just like physical ecstasy is and should be. And forget the moans, the saxophone on "You Sure Love to Ball" may be the sexiest sound on this album. Relax, rejoice, and if you want to tell yourself the whole thing is a Song of Solomon-style metaphor for God's love for the Church or whatever then I suppose you can. I'm still not quite liberated enough to put this into my regular rotation but I will happily deploy it strategically.

Not traditionally what I'd consider listening to, but I'm pleasantly surprised by how incredible some of the songs were.

I usually rank ‘Let’s Get It On’ below ‘What’s Going On’, ‘Here, My Dear’ and ‘I Want You’ in my head-canon of Marvin Gaye albums. I hadn’t listened to ‘Let’s Get It On’ properly in a very long time until today. I’ve tended to dismiss it as seductive but ultimately safe, one of Gaye’s weaker efforts. Perhaps I was wrong. It probably still suffers from having too few ideas to fully flesh out the record the way his best albums do, but it might be better than I give it credit for.

Uhoh,i just got pregnant

I got pregnant listening to this album. Powerful. Seriously good album.

Zuhause, Heidenheim, Deutschland. Gutes Album.

God damn this is sexy. And usually im a freakin prude and dont get into this kinda stuff but its feels so sensual and loving. Makes me much less uncomfortable that WAP. Wildly good stuff here though. I've always head of Marvin gaye and I know the songs that are part of the general culture but I like the rest of get it on other than the 3 seconds in some shitty commercial. Just groovy and fun songs all around.

This was an incredible album to start and the day too Fun in the morning, sexy at night

Wow very good

Smooth as butter

No song other song on this album is as stand out as Let's Get It On but it all sounds very sophisticated and accomplished, if a bit samey.

Obviously I’d heard of this album and its title track before. I did not realise that I had never actually heard the title track the whole way through. Everyone knows that iconic intro but I didn’t know much else beyond that. Overall the album is as smooth as you’d expect from Marvin Gaye and was a wonderful listen.

people still lift the melodic feel and the progression from this album Favorite track: Let's get it on other picks: come get to this, distant lover, just to keep you satisfied

Really good album with one of the best songs of all time, I did find at times it could drag on a bit, but still a great album

Fantastic album, like everything Marvin put out. I like the previous album “What’s Going On” a bit more for the funk it brings. “Let’s Get it On” is more reliant on soul and sexual energy. Still, an absolute classic.

Very different feel to what’s going on, less gospel inspired and a lot more groovy funk songs, all of which all have a very clear theme. I really liked this, funk is one of those genres which is an automatic win for me, especially if it’s a singer like Marvin Gaye, each song seemed to have a use of an instrument which hooked me funk wise, whether it was muted electric guitar, a type of drum sound, the bass line or saxophone which were all made even better by the great vocals. I do wish this was a bit longer though to be honest. This is also his first funk album which is crazy. Favourites: let’s get it on, please don’t stay, keep gettin’ it on, come get to this and distant lover. Overall, 8/10.

R&B liquid gold. Beatiful beautiful stuff.

Fantastic!

Classic

Ooooh baby

Very cool listen

I have to say, I quite enjoyed the whole hangout vibe of it. 4/5.

On “Let’s Get It On”, Marvin Gaye demonstrates why he’s the king of love songs. Tracks flow top down like molasses; Gaye’s voice envelops you like a warm hug. I was also very surprised by the tight, live sounding percussion. Just like me, I wish this project lasted longer.

What a classic sound. I'd recognize it anywhere, even if I didn't know the song. I can't believe I am just learning today that his father murdered him. YIKES. Anyway, this album is sex.

Ha! What an album. The drums coming in on Let’s Get It On after those three sexy wahs is so satisfying and perfectly sets the mood for the rest of the album. It’s stunning in its lush arrangements and vocals, creating a dreamy space of all encompassing sensuality and tenderness. Beautiful.

Smoother than a shaved nutsack

There's a time and a place for this album. It was not the bus to work.

This sounds like the kind of music that South Park's Chef sings whenever he thinks about getting 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 with women, down to actually saying "sweet lovin'" a few times. Chef's probably more 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 than Marvin Gaye, but I swear he sounds like he's about to burst out of his clothes when he's singing half of these songs. Maybe this album's cover his him right in the middle of him throwing his pants behind him. You can't prove it isn't, the cover only shows the waist-up. Anyways, maybe it's the fact that this just isn't my kind of 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 music (granted, I don't get 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 to any music), but I feel like the amount of 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 on this album gets in the way of me enjoying it sometimes. I prefer socially conscious Marvin Gaye to 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 Marvin Gaye.

This is an album designed to be played (and probably only able to be fully enjoyed) as background music during the act to which Mr. Gaye repeatedly (exhaustingly) refers throughout. It's less enjoyable while sitting alone with headphones on and a knitting project in my lap. The opening title track is an undeniable classic, and beautiful. But after two other songs apparently also designed to charm the panties off of 1973's more susceptible women, when he kicks into "Keep Gettin' It On," my eyes rolled so far back into my head that they did a 360 in their sockets. Beautiful musicianship, but boring as hell after 8 songs.

Lets Get It On This is sex music, these are sex people. I’ve oscillated between 3 and 4 on this quite a bit. The title track is brilliant of course, I like how the theme re-emerges throughout, his voice is expectedly superb and there are some nice rhythmic, percussive elements, particularly on the very good Please Don’t Stay and on Come Get To This and Distant Lover. But on the other hand, while the overall quality is pretty high, some songs feel a little too meandering in comparison to the stronger songs - If I Should Die Tonight, the aforementioned Distant Lover, You Sure Love to Ball all have a tendency to slip by and not stick as well in the memory. And like Here, My Dear was thematically quite one note, this also rather labours the point that Marvin is very very horny. I’ll stay with a high 3 - some great highs, its nicely brief and I like it, but it doesn’t quite get to a 4. 💦💦💦 Playlist submission: Let’s Get it On

Oh Marvin, I'm sorry, you're wonderful but "You Sure Love to Ball" really creeps me out, though "Let's Get It On" is great. Splitting the difference at a 3.

Suoraan meemillä sisään. Seksikästä soulia. Parhaat: Let's Get It On, Keep Gettin' It On

у меня встал

king of baby makers fr fr

really good but i have no hoes so

Lighter-hearted jazz. Let’s Get It On is iconic. The rest is more of the same which gets repetitive. There’s a reason only one song has most of the clicks, not that any of it is bad. If I Should Die Tonight is good too.

The title track wasnt actually as cheesy and I remember. Definitely a sensual album through and through. Not sure I'd listen again but I think I got it.

Soul just isn't my thing. I'm sure this album was cutting edge and revolutionary when it came out, but it just feels cheesy today. I didn't dislike the album, but I don't think it's one I'd intentionally listen to again.

It’s a really good album don’t get me wrong. I just don’t think there’s any space in my life where it really fits in. Maybe sitting outside by the fire? Otherwise it’s just not my taste

It's smooth. And classic. You've got to be in the right mood with the right person for this album to really shine.

It's Marvin Gaye, meaning that it is pretty much perfect. The only album of its kind that I can think of that really surpasses it is... also by Marvin Gaye (What's Going On, of course). These are the records it is hard to even really comment on because you just exist inside of it completely while it's on.

My favorite album so far

Damn near shed a tear. I am a music listener who experiences frisson and this album really proved that to me, my relationship with music is sticky. I love music so much, but I don’t listen to it. I’m busy thinking about what everyone else is listening to and not actually listening to it (just larping). Then it leads to not listening to my playlist and being bored and continuing listening to the same 30 songs I'm obsessed at the time to daydream. This album was a great start and I cannot wait for the other recommendations. I’ve never cried because an album is so good, but today I have this album that is so beautiful, and I'm excited to do research about it. It’s genuinely giving me butterflies. I think I'm speechless… This album was amazing beyond belief. All I want to say is thank you, Marvin Gaye <3

Know this

I shit you not, two half naked black women appeared outside my home after listening to this. Thank you Marvin!
