Marvin Gaye - I Want You | REACTION

[@laceybko]

A lot of people will argue "What's Going On" is Marvin Gaye's best album. However, his "I Want You" album is pure magic for me.

[@errin5702]

"I Want You" is my favorite album of his. There's nothing else like it.

[@asurasreactionz2554]

You ain’t lying 😩

[@rhondaherbert9282]

Whats going on was a game changer and an indictment on America...first time i heard it brought tears and its relevancy it stil present. This album here is genius as well but not on same level as whats going on...thats a national treasure.

This is his best album

[@denisegray5722]

I believe Marvin was the first to do this type of vocal layering.

Those harmonies in the background are phenomenal... my favorite from Marvin. A MASTERPIECE indeed !

Marvin Gaye produce classic and timeless music for the masses and this is why he's GOAT. Let's not ignore the album's cover by Ernie Barnes's famous painting The sugar shack ✨ great reaction to "I want you"

"if you don't love this, you're dead inside" - yes jack you are 1000% correct!

[@jeffreyharvey9919]

You hit on exactly what made this song so special. At the time, nobody was layering back up vocals the way Marvin was. He used 7 tracks to essentially harmonize with himself - (that's Marvin in every octive). If you ever have 40 minutes to kill, you should really listen to the entire I Want You album on the best headphones or speakers you have access to. As far as reactions, "After the Dance" was the other big single off the album and another masterpiece.

[@jevonk]

This entire song feels like an experience from start to finish. Marvin’s voice is so raw along with the layering of different instruments made it a beautiful masterpiece.

[@kerrybegadon7572]

I need to listen to this at least once a week after I first found this song years ago.... It's everything!

[@harvestnoelcrawford7026]

Marvelous Marvin Gaye, NOBODY has ever been able to duplicate his voice ever!!!

[@missb4161]

This is one of my favorite songs from Marvin Gaye. The man just had effortless swag. This is for sure on my playlist 😉

[@izaakgarb5764]

Marvin Gaye really is king of soul - 'Inner city blues' is a classic

[@4shys2]

The painting "Sugar Shack" by Ernie Barnes at the intro was featured in TV series Good Times. They bought the painting to life with dancers while Marvin performed "I want you" on the Motown 25th Anniversary Show ! Check it out. Well, check out Motowns 25th Anniversary Show, where Michael Jackson reunited with his brothers ,introduced his glove,white socks and his style of the moonwalk ! You will not be disappointed !

[@lb8471]

And Teena Marie, who was a HUGE Marvin Gaye fan, had a song called, "Sugar Shack", in homage to Marvin. She also had a song named, "My Dear Mr. Gaye," that had elements of Marvin's "Distant Lover".

[@andrewbanfield706]

Let’s have a round of applause for the legend that is Leon Ware. Without him this album doesn’t exist. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@mstaz35]

Your "Old Soul" is shining through!🎶😉

[@kymb.9867]

Marvin is himself a masterpiece. Ain't No Mountain High Enough, You're All I Need to Get By (both with Tammi Terrell), What's Going On and Sexual Healing are a few key parts of his extensive discography.

[@S1MPLECAVEMAN]

You're right Marvin is soul to the bone. If you want to hear one of his ultimate slow jams , lend your ears to " Just to keep you satisfied." You won't be disappointed

[@asurasreactionz2554]

Can’t believe you reacted to this Jack !! I love Marvin Gaye and this is my favorite song from him , so much soul and emotion with this one . You should react to if I should die tonight and just to keep you satisfied . Keep up the great work !!

I agree he was the best!!! You were talking about the blending in the song Those were Marvin's voices blending in the song and he composed the music in his Studio he was definitely a genius truly missed always loved💗

[@katrinamcdperry2501]

Oh my God. So many aspects of this song that is so beautiful. I was having fit on this musical explosion of expressions. This is so sensual. Complex layers of perfection. I know what you mean.

[@jbaugh2851]

Theres a video version of Marvin Gaye effortlessly singing this song in a reclined position on a sofa, while also giving his band sound and tempo directions..flawless.

[@creamone]

This song sends chills up your spine, it's that good.

[@afimakalani3676]

You worded it just fine, young brother. "Ethereal" fits Marvin perfectly. He was not of this world.

[@jacqueline8418]

Who was waiting for Jack's reaction when the lyrics came in 😂😂!

[@kingnaldo4058]

*Marvin* is the real *King* of *R&B* dominating the genre for 25 straight years till his untimely death in 1984.... His song *"Let's get it on"* was the first *Slow Jam* song 🎵 ever. Checkout *Sexual Healing* *'What’s Going On’*

[@jacquelinebell6467]

Too many songs to name but here are some of my favorites: “Let’s Get It On” “Distant Lover” “Sexual Healing” “Whats Going On” “Save The Children.” The list goes on and on. You will know Marvin after these songs. I’ll never forget the day he left the earth. I was just a teenager. The whole world mourned the loss. So untimely when he had so much more to bless the world with. He was a prince and a master at what he did. Simply marvelous!🔥 🙏🏽

Classic. Check out Marvin's rendition of the National Anthem at the NBA All Star Game or Eric Sermon's "Music" or Outkast (Big Boi) "I Like The Way You Move " who both used Marvin Gaye classics, including his voice in the hooks

Nobody with any generation will ever complete with Marvin Gaye. He was unique in his own lane. He's a Top Five Goat of all music genres. The way he layered his voice especially with the background vocals and all that always gives me chills. Especially when you it his voice without the music. Rest in Heaven Mr.Gaye

[@Multitaskertools]

You need to listen to this song with headphones on to fully appreciate Marvin’s arrangement skills 🙏🏼

[@JerrlEvans]

Marvin was so talented, he was called “The Prince of Motown”

[@robind.phillips2129]

That is his voice. I think he laid those tracks first. Anyway, one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing.

I love seeing young people react to old school music. Music today is mostly technology which cannot replicate the passion and emotion that real artists were able to convey to an audience in their music. Marvin was one of the best! Keep listening young folks. Learn your instruments, perfect your craft then add technology.

[@paulapeaks3382]

Jack, yes, yes thank you so much for your pure reaction to this song. One of my very favorite on his. It warmed my heart that you picked up on it from the first few beats that this song is a baby making song for sure. Much respect go out to you for your comments about not correcting an older person when they comment that they don't make music like this any more. For the most part it is true. That music stands the test of time. If you don't believe me just listen to the commercials today and the songs they are they featuring in their commercials. That sound? Oh it was me dropping the mic.
