of course many people have sampled from marvin gaye. One of hiphop's most unique love songs was inspired by Marvin. Method Man teamed up with Mary J Blige on the All I Need remix. Mary sang the lyrics from this song. Crazy how the two sound so different right? Marvin's version is so upbeat, with a driving drum beat, the Method Man version is dark and Mary's singing heavy. I always thought it was interesting how they twisted it. You're all I need to get by, taken from the album of the same name. Written by Ashford and Simpson way before they were know as a solo group (they have written some of the biggest hits for motown). Tammi Terrell (in photo with Marvin) sang on this track also. She and Marvin had a string of duet hits.
