We are close to summer days, and everyone needs those essential summer tunes for long drives, but what really classifies as essential?

“How Sweet It Is” is without a doubt an essential summer tune. Marvin Gaye helped shape Motown Records and has many classics such as “Let’s Get It On” and  “I Heard It From The Grapevine.”  He is known as the Prince of Soul and is sure to brighten your day. Maybe even take you back to 1964 when this song was released, but regardless of what you think, I can assure you this song will stay on that summer playlist.
