"My Last Chance" was a posthumous R&B hit for music icon Marvin Gaye in 1991. Released as a single from Gaye's "The Marvin Gaye Collection", the song was originally recorded by Gaye between the years 1970 and 1972. It provided the basis for Marvin's penned ballad for The Miracles (now without founder Smokey Robinson), "I Love You Secretly". The song was never released until it was featured on the collection where it got massive airplay on R&B radio eventually reaching #16 on Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks. The song was Gaye's third posthumous hit since his April 1, 1984 death at the hands of his minister father and was the highest-charted single for Gaye since 1985's "Sanctified Lady".
