Talk:Midnight Love

Wow, man.This album is Marvin Gaye taking flight!  It won him his only award and at an angle may look like a smooth jazz vinyl. For one I'd concur that  it's an enhancement of themes previously expressed in Let's Get It On, i.e. Let's Get It On parallel to Sexual Healing and  Please stay to Til' Tomorrow- to me the rest is unclear but here we go.

Midnight Lady begins with a wind up toy and is an ear-tingling glimpse of a club party, Sexual Healing (although lacking in different lyrics in a few of the bridges[probably to comply with censorship codes or dignify the singer's image]) really eases the pain (causing a few comic giggles when reminded of the song),Rockin' After Midnight is a sexy, bona-fide jam which communicates the schedule, Til' Tomorrow, the album's only ballad was very sporadic in approach but does go out of the way a bit, (only) for knowing a French compliment, Turn On Some Music is quite therapeutic in itself, Third World Girl, (Reggae Flava) has obnoxious hollers which gradually fade into harmonic melodies, Joy vocally takes him back to his Motown period, and My Love Is Waiting is like the happy ending of his career. I'd take note that in a 1983 interview* he said he misses the Motown years, (despite his feuds regarding his two aborted projects). All songs with the exception of Til' Tomorrow are very funky, groovy and well structured and you'll have a great time listening to this album.

One point I'd make is that it mightn't have been a good idea to release FOUR singles unless he was as famous as Michael Jackson as not all of them may become Top Ten hits.
