"Lucky, Lucky Me" is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Marvin Gaye and produced by Ivy Jo Hunter. Gaye originally recorded the song in 1964, but the song was shelved by Motown staff. When Motown's UK department, Tamla-Motown, issued The Very Best of Marvin Gaye, the label included the song as the final song in the track listing. Following, positive buzz from Marvin's fans in England, Tamla-Motown released the song as a single in the UK where it reached number sixty-seven on the UK Singles Chart in 1994 giving Gaye his fourth posthumous hit, a decade after his death.
