As always, listen to both recordings then share your thoughts in the comments section.
"Ain't That Peculiar" is a 1965 song recorded by American soul musician Marvin Gaye for the Tamla (Motown) label.
The single was produced by Smokey Robinson, and written by Robinson, and fellow Miracles members Bobby Rogers, Pete Moore, and Marv Tarplin. "Ain't That Peculiar" features Gaye, with the Andantes on backing vocals, singing about the torment of a painful relationship.
Billboard said that "penetrating hard-drive dance beat backs another soulful, first-rate Gaye performance." Cash Box described it as a "rollicking, rhythmic pop-blues romantic handclapper about a love-struck fella who can't get along without his gal." Record World said that "The Detroit beat gets going in high speed on this marvy Gaye slice."
