Reseña
El álbum M.P.G., de 1969, es un perfecto ejemplo de Marvin Gaye en su faceta de infalible creador de éxitos para el sello Motown. Este disco, cuyo título son las iniciales del artista (Marvin Pentz Gay), es una colección de soul pulido y de altísima calidad, que lo consolidó como una de las mayores estrellas masculinas de la compañía justo antes de su revolucionaria transformación artística.
El trabajo contiene varios singles de éxito, entre los que destaca el irresistible "Too Busy Thinking About My Baby". De hecho, esta canción, con su ritmo contagioso y su alegre melodía, encapsula el sonido de Motown de finales de los 60. Por otro lado, el álbum muestra la creciente madurez de Gaye como intérprete, capaz de inyectar una profunda emoción incluso en el material más comercial.
Asimismo, el disco presenta una producción impecable, característica de la factoría de éxitos de Berry Gordy. En resumen, "M.P.G." es un excelente retrato del artista en su cúspide como estrella del pop-soul, un trabajo que, aunque no posee la carga conceptual de sus obras posteriores, es un deleite de principio a fin.

[X]letra de Too Busy Thinking About My Baby
I ain't got time
To think about money
Or what it can buy
And I ain't got time
To sit down and wonder
What makes the birdies fly
And I don't have the tima
To think about what makes the flowers grow
And I never give it a second thought
To where the rivers flow
Too busy thinking about my baby
And I ain't got time to nothing else
Too busy thinking about my baby
And I ain't got time to nothing else
I ain't got time to discuss the weather
Or how it's gonna last
And I ain't got time to do no studying
Once I get out of class
And I'm just a fellow
I got a one track mind
And when it comes to
Thinking about anything about my baby
I just don't have the time
Too busy thinking about my baby
And I ain't got time to nothing else
Too busy thinking about my baby
And I ain't got time to nothing else
All the diamonds and pearls in the world
Could never match her worth
She's some kind of wonderful
People tell you
I've got heaven right here on earth
And I'm just a fellow
With a one track mind
And when it comes to thinking about
Anything but my baby
I just don't have the time
Too busy thinking about my baby
And I ain't got time to nothing else
Too busy thinking about my baby
And I ain't got time to nothing else

[X]letra de The End of Our Road
(Norman Whitfield/Barrett Strong/Roger Penzabene)
Oh, it's over, it's all over
Said it's over, it's all over, baby
I gotta get away from you as fast as I can
You're too much for me, woman
More than my heart can stand
Like a kid behind the wheel
You've been reckless with my heart
If I stayed around
You'd surely tear it all apart
The road has got to end somewhere
Woman, woman, every road has got to end somewhere
Now is the time for the showdown
So let me give you the lowdown
We've come to the end of our road
Woman, I'm just thinkin' 'bout all the times you promised to call
And I sat at home lonely
You only did it 'cause you knew my love was only
Runnin', runnin' around with every guy in town
I'm tellin' you, woman, no longer will I be your clown
The road has got to end somewhere
Every road has got to end somewhere
I'm tired of your stuff
Say enough is enough
We've come to the end of our road
I can't take it no more
Woman, there's no sense in you beggin' and pleadin'
To hold on when I'm the one you're leavin'
Say I've 'bout had my fill of you (had my fill of you)
Flirtin's all through the years
And I've almost run out of tears
I'm tellin' you, I couldn't cry if I wanted to
The road has got to end somewhere
Every road has got to end somewhere
Time and again I've begged you to slow down
So I'm givin' you the lowdown
We've come to the end of our road, road, road
(repeat and fade):
(Oh, this is the end, the end of our road)

[X]letra de Only a Lonely Man Would Know
Ooh, once I thought that
Love was a toy for girls and boys
I never gave my heart
I just played the part right from the start
Then there was you, sweet you
With a love that I knew, I knew was true
But in my pride, I left you, baby
Oh, just hangin' on, now love has gone
Oh, only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you darlin'
Since you said goodbye
Only a lonely man would know
The hurt inside of me, since I left my pride
Make a fool of me
Ask any lonely man, you see, darlin'
Walk up and ask any lonely man like me, baby
Ooh, foolishly girl, I broke your heart
Now we're apart
Now, in my lonely room, I
Just reminisce, long for your kiss
And through my lonely tears
I can see ahead long lonely years
Without your love
My world, my world's at an end
Blinds closin' in, now, I know
Oh, what I was too slow in learnin'
Oh, now I know
No that I'm all alone, my heart is yearnin'
Oh, only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you darlin'
Since you said goodbye
Ask any lonely man, you see, baby
Go on and ask him, baby
Only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you darlin'
Since you said goodbye
Ooh, only a lonely man would know
