What's a song that feels like magic every time you hear it?

When David Ruffin comes in with "I've got suuunshiiiiiiiiiiiiiine..." I can't help but smile. It lifts me. Every. Time.

The Mamas and the Papas recorded this song too. I love their version, and it is magical to me too. But the Mamas and the Papas didn't have David Ruffin in their vocal group.
