Mood-Setter Song: 'Let's Get It On'

A little Marvin Gaye soul and funk equals a lot of spunk in your bedroom. The most successful album of his career, 'Let's Get It On' was one of the first LPs to scream sex when it was released in 1973, and ultimately found itself speaking universally to the world. The album proved that everyone wants to get a little freaky when 'Let's Get It On' skyrocketed to No. 1 around the world and eventually would be deemed "of historical significance" by the Recording Academy of America, which inaugurated it into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2004. So, 'C'mon, oh, c'mon/ Let's get it on ..." already.
