Background and release[edit]
"Marvin Gaye"
An 18-second sample of the chorus, where the lyrics are "an effort to spark romance and get that special someone in the mood."[2]

Puth began his music career on YouTube,[3] gaining attention after recording with Emily Luther a cover of Adele's "Someone Like You".[3] The two appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and signed with Ellen's record label, eleveneleven.[3] After gaining further attention, Puth signed with Atlantic Records[4] in January 2015.[5] Puth and Meghan Trainor announced a duet,[5] and "Marvin Gaye" was released as Puth's debut single on February 10, 2015.[1]
Puth said during an interview with Billboard that he had come up with the drumbeat for "Marvin Gaye" while sitting at a cafe in Hollywood,[6] adding that he and Trainor "were at a party one night, and we were exchanging the new music, and she heard "Marvin Gaye" and asked, "Who else is singing on this? It should be a duet. Let me sing on it!" So I'm like ... OK, Meghan Trainor just asked me to sing on my song, absolutely! In one day, she knew the whole thing. We did it all in one take."[6]
"Marvin Gaye" is a reference to the soul singer with "the lyrics of the tune being an effort to spark romance and get that special someone in the mood, just as many Gaye slow jams have done for millions in the past."[2] The song is also Trainor's first release without writing credits.[2] The collaboration led to Puth's appearance as one of Trainor's dates in the music video for her single "Dear Future Husband".[2]
Commercial performance[edit]
In Oceania, "Marvin Gaye" became a commercial hit, peaking at number one in New Zealand[7] and number four in Australia.[8] It was later certified Platinum by Recorded Music New Zealand (RMNZ) and 2× Platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA).
In the United States, the song debuted at number 87 on the Billboard Hot 100[9] before peaking at number 21, making it Puth's second consecutive top 40 hit in the United States.
In the United Kingdom, the song debuted at number 90 on the UK Singles Chart before ascending to the top of the chart the following week, becoming both Puth and Trainor's second chart-topping single in Britain after "See You Again" and "All About That Bass" respectively.
In the Republic of Ireland, "Marvin Gaye" debuted at number 97 on the Irish Singles Chart before peaking at number-one five weeks later.[10]
Music video[edit]
The song's accompanying music video was directed by Marc Klasfeld[11] and released via YouTube on April 1, 2015.[12] It follows a dance in school where all in attendance "start making out on the floor, including the chaperones".[13] The video closes with Puth and Trainor kissing.[14]
The video featured a strong product placement for Fiat's then new 500 1957 Edition and was used prominently in the company's advertising.[15][16]
Live performances[edit]
Puth and Trainor performed "Marvin Gaye" during the 2015 American Music Awards on November 22, 2015. Like the music video, the performance ended with a kiss between the two. This led to speculation that the two were in a romantic relationship. Puth denied this, stating that he and Trainor are just "friends" and the kiss was only meant to keep the performance within the theme of the song. He further said, "There was a lot of making out. The dancers were making out and I'm sure some of the other dancers were making out. I think that's it though".[17]
Remix[edit]
An alternate version of "Marvin Gaye" has been released replacing Meghan Trainor with rapper Wale.[18] The remix is featured on the Japanese edition of Puth's album Nine Track Mind.[19]

The X Factor is a British television music competition to find new singing talent; the winner of which receives a £1 million recording contract with the Syco Music record label. The first series was broadcast from 4 September to 11 December 2004. The competition was split into several stages: auditions, bootcamp and live shows, with Louis Walsh, Sharon Osbourne and Simon Cowell as judges. Kate Thornton presented the show on ITV, whilst Ben Shephard presented spin-off show The Xtra Factor on ITV2.
Auditions were held in Dublin, Newcastle, London, Leeds, Birmingham and Glasgow.
The series was won by Steve Brookstein,[1] with Cowell as the winning mentor. Brookstein went on to have some chart success, with runners-up G4 achieving two platinum albums before splitting up in 2007.

Selection process[edit]
Applications and auditions[edit]
Prior to the audition phase, advertisements appeared on ITV, in newspapers, and trade magazines, promising that the new show would encourage groups, and while the emphasis was on singing, would welcome those who played instruments and wrote their own songs. Thus the show would differentiate itself from its predecessor, Pop Idol.
For the first episode of auditions, which aired on 4 September 2004, the judges visited Leeds and London. For the second episode, which aired on 11 September 2004, the judges visited Newcastle. The third episode aired on 18 September 2004, the fourth on 25 September 2004 and the fifth on 2 October 2004.
Bootcamp[edit]
After the initial auditions, each judge was randomly allocated a category:
Simon Cowell: 25 and Overs
Sharon Osbourne: 16-24s
Louis Walsh: Groups
Each judge chose twelve acts from their category to go through to round two — bootcamp. After bootcamp, each judge selected five acts to progress to round three — "judges' homes". The bootcamp episodes aired on 9 and 16 October 2004.
Judges' homes[edit]
In this round, the 15 acts (five for each judge) went to the "homes" of their respective judges, where they were interviewed and performed again. Each judge then chose three acts to go through to the finals (making a total of nine finalists, unlike later series, which would feature 12/16). Unlike future series of the show, in series one the judges actually took their contestants to their real houses. In future, the locations that the contestants were sent to were mostly abroad and considered more 'glamorous'. Also, in earlier series of the show the judges were assisted at this stage by a whole supporting panel compared to later series where to have just one assistant has become the norm. Additionally, the supporting panels mainly consisted of people who had credentials such as vocal coaches and record producers as opposed to later series where helpers at this stage were most world-famous singers.

Live shows[edit]
Format[edit]
The finals consisted of two live shows each Saturday evening. For the first five weeks each act performed once in the first show, after which the public voted for the act that they wanted to remain in the show. In the later results show, the two acts with the fewest votes were revealed. These two acts then had to sing again before the three judges decided who was eliminated.
The format changed in the sixth week: each act performed twice in the first show (with the judges offering their opinions after the second songs), and reprised one of their songs in the results show. The act with the fewest public votes was eliminated at the end of the second show, with the judges no longer having a say in who left.
The live shows started on 23 October 2004 and ended on 11 December 2004.

Controversy and criticism[edit]
It was reported in tabloid newspapers that the show's audition process was unfair after Walsh was accused of cheating. He was thought to have advised the group Co-Ed on things such as song choices, which caused controversy after it was revealed that he had actually previously managed Co-Ed after they appeared on the Irish version of Popstars in 2001. Around the same time, footage of Cowell and Osbourne coaching contestants to argue back to the judges was being auctioned over the Internet.[3]
Prior to the first live show, Osbourne accused Cowell of "rigging" the show by editing footage to make the contestants in his category more appealing to viewers.[4] Osbourne attracted criticism again following the final in December 2004 when she was forced to make an apology after attracting what Cowell referred to as "record complaints" over an outburst by Osbourne in which she criticised eventual winner Steve Brookstein. This left her place on the show uncertain,[5] although she returned for the second series in 2005
Despite finishing as runners-up, G4 have since referred to The X Factor as "just panto".[6]
