Thankyou theboyfromxtown for sharing this clip :)
Truly a classic! The Vandellas' sharp, aggressive background vocals work so well with Marvin's cool delivery too.

It is pure call and response Gospel with secular lyrics!

You are right. That must be why it's so good for the soul to hear it!

I love the prominence of the piano which often gets lost in the mix.

I have heard that this song was written as a tribute to Marvin's wife, Anna Gordy-Gaye.

Funny this topic came up because I realized there were about 5 versions of this song.
1. version on anthology disc 1
2. Compact command performances
3. Marvin collection disc 1 [[ with a break and if I remember correctly he does a sax Solo)
4. Marvin Gaye the Master 1961-1984
5. Marvin Gaye - That Stubborn Kinda Fella
I may be wrong but all of these versions sound different to me in one way or another. I just found compact performances version a couple of months ago.

I know one version was very laid back and there was a subtle change in lyrics, just a few words here and there. I did not like that version so much.
I love the version on "At The Copa". It's not on youtube, too bad !

Without the honky tonk piano and the Vandellas, it is just not the same.....
