Fans crushed the iconic hits questions — nailing Grapevine and Sexual Healing at 87% and 80% — but stumbled hard on Let's Get It On's release year, with less than half (47%) getting it right. Turns out, fans know the music way better than the timeline!
Motown Records was the runaway fan favorite for Marvin's first major label at 80% correct, but a surprising 13% were convinced he started at Atlantic Records — a classic case of soul-era labels getting mixed up in fans' memories.
