I want you, the right way I want you But I want you to want me, too Want you to want me baby Just like I want you
Oh, I'll give you all the love I want in return, sweet darling But half the love is all I feel Ooh, it's too bad it's just too sad You don't want me now But I'm gonna change your mind Someway, somehow, aw baby
I want you, the right way I want you But I want you to want me, too Want you to want me baby Just like I want you
One way love is just a fantasy To share is precious, pure and fair Don't play with somethin' You should cherish for life, oh baby Don't you want to care Ain't it lonely out there
I want you, the right way I want you But I want you to want me too Want you to want me baby Just like I want you
I want you, the right way I want you But I want you to want me too Want you to want me baby Just like I want you
I Want You is the fourteenth studio album by American soul musician Marvin Gaye, released March 16, 1976, on Motown-subsidiary label Tamla Records. Recording sessions for the album took place throughout 1975 and 1976 at Motown Recording Studios, also known as Hitsville West, and Gaye's personal studio Marvin's Room in Los Angeles, California. The album has often been noted by critics for producer Leon Ware's exotic, low-key production and the erotic, sexual themes in his and Gaye's songwriting. The album's cover artwork adapts neo-mannerist artist Ernie Barnes's famous painting The Sugar Shack (1971). I Want You consisted of Gaye's first recorded studio material since his highly successful and well-received album Let's Get It On (1973). While it marked a change in musical direction for Gaye, departing from his trademark Motown and doo-wop-influenced sound for funky, light-disco soul, the album maintained and expanded on his previous work's sexual themes. Following a mixed response from critics at the time of its release, I Want You has earned retrospective recognition from writers and music critics as one of Gaye's most controversial works and influential to such musical styles as disco, quiet storm, R&B, and neo soul.
