"Learnalilgivinanlovin" is a song by the Belgian-Australian singer-songwriter Gotye from his second album Like Drawing Blood released in Australia as a single in 2006. A new version of the song (with the chorus sung in a higher pitch) was released as a single in Belgium in 2008. Another version was released by Neon Gold Records.[1]
The song draws very heavy influence from Motown records of the late '50s and early '60s such as Marvin Gaye and Smokey Robinson and The Miracles. Gotye uses a drum sample from The Ronettes' record, "Be My Baby" (which famously employs Phil Spector's Wall of Sound technique).
