After watching that movie, I downloaded this song and it is in constant rotation on my play list, even more so the Marvin Gaye's version of it

@MistaMeowmers
The scene in Chef with this song has got to be my favorite scene from that movie. They just sing it so well, a lot of feeling (I know they're acting but still.)

@MistaMeowmers
