Hey all, a while ago, about a year and a half ago, i got a song called i want you, supposedly by the brothers johnson, but i dont think it was, coz i've been trying to find the song again and cant find it anywhere, but then i remember i learnt the bass line, but i only remember the verse, so i rememberd it as best as i could coz i havnt played it for over a year and recorded it to see if anyone reconises it http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.ph...43B63F15C1A66D
if anyone can tell me who did this song i would really apprisiate it

Chorus:
I want you the right way
I want you, but I want you to want me too,
Want you to want me baby
Just like I want you
Da da, da da, da da da
I'll give you all the love I want in return
But half a love is all I feel, sweet darling
It's too bad, it's just too sad
You don't want me no more
But I'm gonna change your mind
Some way, somehow |

"I want you" by Marvin Gaye. Written by Leon Ware (One of my favorite songwriters  )
Here's a video of Leon performing this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCso4pCFwjk
Couldn't really tell from the .wav file if this is correct. |

I know the song plus Leon is a friend of mine.
Leon,Arthur T-Boy Ross and Jacqueline Hillard wrote that song.It was originaly intended for Leon's own solo project but when Marvin Gaye heard it he really wanted to record it and Leon ended up producing the Marvin Gaye album "I Want You" and the rest is history. |
