"Come Get to This" is a song written and recorded by American recording artist Marvin Gaye. It was released as the second single off Gaye's landmark album, ''Let's Get It On'' following the success of the title track. Recording sessions for the song first occurred in 1970 when Gaye worked on the song in a demo format while he made ''What's Going On''. Gaye then shelved the recording for three years before revisiting it as he began assessing the track listing for ''Let's Get It On''. The song was remixed and edited at Motown's Hollywood-based recording studios in 1973. The song's composition and record production was inspired by the Motown Sound of the 1960s and the lyrics reflected a man's joy over the return of an old lover. The strong response from Motown executives upon hearing the song prompted the label to issue the song as the second single as a possible follow-up hit to "Let's Get It On". The song found major success though modestly compared to "Let's Get It On", reaching #21 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and #3 on the Hot Soul Singles chart, selling over a quarter million copies. Gaye performed the song while appearing on ''Soul Train'' in 1974. The musician performed the song in its original sound during his 1974-1975 United States tour. Midway through the 1970s, Gaye altered the song as a warm-up to "Let's Get It On" performing it in a seductive blues-oriented style. This alteration would continue to be used until his final US tour in 1983. During a rehearsal of his Belgium concert in 1981, Gaye performed the song in its original version on piano. Among the cover versions of the song included versions by Nancy Wilson on her 1975 album of the same name and Joe covered the song on his 2009 album, ''Signature''. ==Personnel== *All vocals by Marvin Gaye *Instrumentation by The Funk Brothers and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra *Produced by Marvin Gaye 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Come Get to This」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
