I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch) by The Four Tops was used in the following movies:

Into the Night (1985)
My Blue Heaven (1990)
Forrest Gump (1994)
Rat Race (2001)
Shark Tale (2004)

I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch) was the first U.S. #1 hit for The Four Tops, and it was a significant success, topping the Hot 100 for two weeks and the R&B chart for an impressive nine weeks. The song was written by the highly successful Motown team of Lamont Dozier, Brian Holland, and Eddie Holland, who composed most of The Supremes' hits.

The melody of this song is very similar to "Where Did Our Love Go," which Holland-Dozier-Holland wrote for The Supremes. According to Lamont Dozier, the title originated because he could not help himself from working with the same tune.

In the UK, this was the group's first single, issued alongside their American Motown debut, "Baby I Need Your Loving," as the B-side. It was released to coincide with their first European tour in the summer of 1965 and reached #23. In 1970, it was re-released in the UK and peaked at #10.
