"I want to be loved" is definitely not played in second position on an F
harp.  The right ways to play it in first position using a C harp.  The
riff start with a tongue blocked four blow.  tried on the C harmonica and
you will never again do it on the F harp.  also, the solo works out
perfectly in first position. It's textbook first position blues harp.   Let
me know and I'll be happy to help you with it. But don't learn it in second
position on an F harp... it will always sound weak in comparison.
