Why did I choose you? What did I see in you?
I saw the heart you hide so well...
I saw a quiet man, who had a gentle way,
a way that caught me in its glowing spell.
Why did I want you? What could you offer me?
A love to last a life-time through?
And when I lost my heart so many years ago,
I lost it lovingly and willingly to you.
If I had to choose again, I would still choose you
Marvin Gaye, born Marvin Pentz Gay Jr. (Washington D.C., April 2, 1939 – Los Angeles, April 1, 1984), was an American singer, songwriter, record producer, and arranger widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in soul and R and B music. He began his career as a gospel singer in the 1950s before joining Motown Records in 1961. With his smooth and melodic vocals, Gaye's songs often explored themes of love, war, social justice, and personal struggles, resonating with audiences worldwide. Among his most celebrated hits are "Let's Get It On", "Sexual Healing", "What's Going On", and "Ain't No Mountain High Enough". The latter, a duet with Tammi Terrell, became an anthem of hope and unity. Gaye received numerous accolades, including six Grammy Awards, and his album "What's Going On" is considered a masterpiece of soul music. His life was marked by personal turmoil and addiction issues, culminating in the tragic murder of his father by Marvin himself in 1984.
