#3 – Marvin Gaye – I Want You

BLQ-Marvin_Gaye
The title says it all. Five seconds in, on the left channel, you can hear a female orgasmic moan. Marvin follows in with some melodic moans of his own. For the rest of the song he sings in his most sensual and gentle voice. He beckons, he teases, he coos. He’s inviting his lover in, but not until he knows that she wants him as much as he wants her. If you want to enjoy this moment, babe, I want to understand that you want it as much as I do. He’s romantic. Finally around the four minute mark, he gives out his most spine-tingling howl. That must be the moment of reciprocation. Apparently he recorded the vocal take lying on a couch, thrusting his pelvis.
