That is both the most blatant exploitation of a previous artist's popularity and the slickest
guarantee to pop success I've seen in a very long time. No samples of Marvin's recordings
are used but the kid clearly references his tunes lyrically. Robin Thicke probably never would
of thought of that. Another thing I find funny here is that Marvin Gaye's name is used as a verb
for having sex. I wonder what Jan Gaye would make of that.......Too much...
^ Go to her Twitter, she LOVES it lmao
It's on the A list on radio 2 here in the UK. It's a grower but I will not be purchasing it.

I say the best of luck to Charlie Puth, the guy has worked his butt off, not the easy way with a record company behind him, but hard work on the net and YouTube, built up a following most signed artists to major companies would do anything to have! Over time plenty of names. places have been used in songs, and it will happen loads more times. It's a catchy radio friendly song, not everyone's cup of tea, but then that is life.
