Reseña
El punto de partida de la discografía de Marvin Gaye, "The Soulful Moods", de 1961, es un documento fascinante que revela las aspiraciones iniciales del artista. Lejos del sonido R&B que lo haría famoso, este debut es un álbum de jazz y pop tradicional, en el que un joven Marvin Gaye busca posicionarse como un crooner sofisticado, en la línea de sus ídolos como Nat King Cole.
En este disco, por lo tanto, no encontramos el sonido característico de Motown, sino estándares de jazz y baladas interpretadas con una voz suave y aterciopelada. De hecho, el propio artista luchó para que este fuera su estilo, mostrando una temprana voluntad de seguir su propio camino artístico, a menudo en contra de los deseos de la discográfica.
Aunque el álbum no fue un éxito comercial en su momento, hoy en día es una pieza esencial para comprender la profundidad de su talento. Además, demuestra que, antes de ser el "Príncipe del Soul", Marvin Gaye ya era un vocalista de una elegancia y una sensibilidad extraordinarias. En resumen, es el prólogo de una de las historias más importantes de la música popular.

[X]letra de My Funny Valentine
My Funny Valentine,
Sweet comic valentine -
You make me smile, with my heart.
Your looks are laughable
Un-photagraphable
Yet you'r my fav'rite work of art.
Is your figure, less than greek
Is your mouth, a little weak?
When you open it to speak,
Are you smart?
But don't change a hair for me,
Not if you care for me -
Stay little Valentine, stay
Each Day is Valentine's Day.
(musical interlude)
Is your figure, less than greek
Is your mouth, a little weak?
When you open it to speak,
Are you smart?
Don't baby don't change a hair for me,
Not if you care for me -
Stay little Valentine, stay
Each Day is Valentine's Day. - WitchcraftVer letra 2:25
[X]letra de Witchcraft
Those fingers in my hair
That sly come hither stare
That strips my conscience bare
It's witchcraft
And I've got no defense for it
The heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do
'Cause it's witchcraft, wicked witchcraft
And although, I know, it's strictly taboo
When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to
It's such an ancient pitch
But one I wouldn't switch
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you
When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to
It's such an ancient pitch
But one I wouldn't switch
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you
There's no nicer witch than you - Easy LivingVer letra 3:04
[X]letra de Easy Living
Living for you is easy living
It's easy to live when you're in love
And I'm so in love
There is nothing in life but you
I never regret the years that I'm giving
They're easy to give when you're in love
I'm happy to do whatever I do for you
For you maybe I'm a fool
But it's fun
People say you rule me with one wave of your hand
Darling, it's grand
They just don't understand
Living for you is easy living
It's easy to live when you're in love
And I'm so in love
There's nothing in life but you - How Deep Is the Ocean (How High Is the Sky) 3:08
- Love for SaleVer letra 2:54
[X]letra de Love for Sale
When the only sound on the empty street
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
That belong to a lonesome cop
I open shop
When the moon so long has been gazing down
On the wayward ways of this wayward town
That her smile becomes a smirk
I go to work
Love for sale
Appetizing, young love for sale.
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled.
Love that's only slighty soiled.
Love for sale.
Who will buy?
Who will like to sample my supply?
Who's prepared to pay the price
For a trip to paradise?
Love for sale.
Let the poets pipe of love
In their childish way.
I know every type of love
Better far than they.
If you want the thrill of love
I've been through the mill of love.
Old love. New love.
Every love, but true love.
Love for sale.
Appetizing young love for sale.
If you want to buy my wares,
Follow me and climb the stairs.
Love for sale.
Love for sale - AlwaysVer letra 2:58

Baby - How High the MoonVer letra 2:27
[X]letra de How High the Moon
Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
There is no moon above
When love is far away too
Till it comes true
That you love me as I love you
Somewhere there's heaven
It's where you are
Somewhere there's music
How near, how far
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon
Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon - Let Your Conscience Be Your GuideVer letra 3:04
[X]letra de Let Your Conscience Be Your Guide
Let your conscience be your guide
Let your conscience be your guide, oh baby
If you want to leave me, go on girl
Go on and leave, oh leave me
But oh darlin', oh darlin', oh yeah
Let your conscience be your guide
You know I've never done you wrong
I've always stuck right by your side, oh baby
You only had to call my name and oh baby
If you could feel, oh, feel the same
Oh darlin', my darlin', oh yeah
Let your conscience be your guide
If only you could remember just hard I tried
Please, oh please, don't forget
I've given you the best years of my life
You know I've never, never, no, no, no, never done you wrong
I've always stuck right by your side, oh baby
You only had to call my name
Oh, oooh girl, if could feel the same
Oh darlin', my darlin', oh yeah
