What the heck is that song on the radio (soundtrack movie I think)

I keep hearing this song on the radio, top 40's type of station. I think it is a song from a new movie soundtrack, either "The Dilemma" or "Just Go With It" or "No Strings Attached." I heard it when I was in the other room when the TV was on, and it was one of those movie trailers I think....let's hope I am not going batty here.

The song is done by an African American singer I believe, and it has that 70's funk, Stevie Wonder type of sound/vibe to it. Kind of a Brick House type of feel. It is very popular on the radio where I live now.

Does anyone know what song I am talking about? I have gone online and Itunes and cannot figure it out. Thanks!

You're talking about this song? I noticed it was used in a movie trailer.

BTW, this is the censored version. The original song has a certain well-known colorful and expressive word in place of "forget".

My stepsister posted a different version on Facebook that used an "F word" other than "forget". I liked it better.

My kids knew of this song before I did. I like both versions.

My daughter showed me something she can do with her new phone..she just holds it up to the radio/TV and lets it hear the song and it does a search and tells you the songs name and who sings it..It's amazing!

I heard it on the TV for the advertisement of the movie The Dilemma too. At first, I didn't know what he was saying. It was unintelligible garble. Then one of my daughters started singing it when the commercial was on ~You been drivin' round town with the girl I love and I say forget you...!~ I'm like oh ok that's what he's saying. The TV advertisement is what made me like the song.

Cee Lo was on Saturday Night Live last week. The skit where Gwyneth Paltrow talks about the "forget" word is funny. Well, I thought it was funny.
