Wednesday night on _The Late Late Show_, Anna Kendrick and [James Corden](http://time.com/4362417/james-corden-carpool-karaoke-most-nervous/) sang “Soundtrack to a Love Story,” a love medley to end all love medleys.

The two of them killed it, singing eleven songs that will take you through the courtship, intimacy, marriage, betrayal, breakup ice cream and reconciliation stages of a relationship. One thousand points for [the _Pitch Perfect_ star](http://time.com/4326399/justin-timberlake-anna-kendrick-cover-cyndi-laupers-true-colors/) singing Adele’s “Someone Like You” over a carton of sherbet, and who knew James could hit that impossible high note in Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You?”

It’s like when Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor sang their [love medley duet](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFtssl7u7lE) in _Moulin Rouge_, but with salad. Watch below.
