Those vocal chords are a gift from nature. Of course this man honed his craft with the Funk Brothers but man if you notice how strong his neck and throat looks. The fibre and muscle on his neck proves that he has something special in his anatomy.
When I first heard I want to hold your hand that changed my life and when I first heard i was made to love her. That was a second awaking. I i reaky started to understand soul music
Seeing Stevie perform this in 2016 at Hyde Park London along with the rest of SITKOL was an amazing experience, especially as I was with my eldest Son, also a massive Stevie fan and brilliant musician. Love you Stevie and Love you Son. P E A C E : )
If your son wants to do well as a musician, he cannot do better than emulating SW! It’s a pity the world is entranced by the sub-mediocrity of Sheeran, Swift, Beyoncé, Adele at al…
I always liked this song, I am not really a Stevie fan, but hot damn, the guy sounds amazing for his age - he sounds almost the same as he did on the record which was released all those years ago. Kudos to you, Stevie.
Top 5 Stevie song! How did i miss this?! Im sure it only came up bc this song is on my #1 playlist on regular repeat. And he sounds like the album. Or should i say the 45 that came with the double album. 🎉🎉🎉
We are so blessed to live in this time and witness such awesome artistic genius as to actually catch lightning in a bottle _ Marvel at the Wonder among us
I remember it was put up on The Tonight Show’s website as an unaired bonus performance. I didn’t know the Mac had a built-in screen/audio recording feature, so it took me hours to figure out how to get a copy. But it all worked out!
Classic example of how somebody can be so good as a composer/musician that they make a supposed-to-be R/B funk/killer rock guitar SONG - (accidently?) slip into dang GOSPEL! At the end...I swear I heard choir of angels! Just so sick...his music could raise the dead!
One last thing ...anybody just so happen to notice that bruh man got... basically, two drummers and...is that THREE keyboards/synchronizers including his? Is this, musically, legal?
Finally, this live version proves the female is not saying "All Day Sucker Cup for your love" those written lyrics always seemed off to me. Cup made no sense to me.
What do you hear her saying? I always thought it was a strange lyric but it is repeated no less than 26 times (all day sucker-cup for your love) in the songbook included with the album. Back in the day I used to sing it as all day sucker, up for your love. Who knows…maybe sucker-cup was slang. But I will give you this…it would not be the only time a song’s lyric was transposed incorrectly in the liner notes - but 26 times would probably be an all-time high. 🤷🏾♂️
@@slpurdy1159 lol. I always thought she was saying "All Day Sucker...but for your love.." But, yes 26 is a lot (for a mistake). Stevie could solve all this. They need to ask him. lol. We've been wondering for 40+ years.
@@slpurdy1159 interesting - in the liner notes for my CD it says "all day sucker for your love // all day sucka ca for your love" alternating between lines. Not sure what the "sucka ca" means haha! This is from the CD issued in 2000

@@Micahnoname just questlove is one of the best pocket drummers alive today. Being a professional musician means that you're able to play your instrument in multiple different settings too.

MY GOODNESS. At 70, he still sounds as good as he did at 25.
Playing with Stevie must have been an all-time career highlight for Questlove. After all, he's a one-man encyclopedia on black music.
Not forgetting he produced an Al Green album and jammed with Prince. He's lived the muso geeks dreams multiple times over.
The fact that he retained not only enough of his tonal quality, but his range as well, to pull this performance off is nothing short of amazing.
You dig sing
Amen yall 😅😅😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤
He really never misses a note
he is too good to even make missed notes sound present
Stevie Wonder is The God Of All Music !
You're not wrong!
He SURE is!
this song always reminded me on Rufus, then I realized he wrote songs for them and many others groups! Best album ever!!
No words for Stevie. None. Nothing you can even say. Questlove’s tom mics are crisp as all get out. That roll is ridiculously bouncy.
I have no words. Man's a genius --- done. The Roots are so gassed.

The Funkiest Nastiest Beat Ever!!!
you aint never lie, The Roots seed 2.0 is a close second in my opinion. This can cause damage to the neck cartilage from chronic head bopping.
In my heaven I'll be playing and singing with this musical virtuoso !
He’s STILL a great performer! 👍🏽
One of my many favorite Stevie songs.
I was 14 when this classic album came out and I've lost count how many times I've listened to it
Towering musical genius. Thank God we still have him.
All day sucker... love it, as well as the entire album of Songs in the Key of Life❤️

I am so glad they got the drums sequence down with the missing hihat substituted by the synth sizzle replacing it.
Cool. Somebody knows what I am talking about

Keep listening and you will be! Go back and listen to songs like I Believe When I Fall In Love and Maybe Your Baby to hear him rocking out.
How can you not be a Stevie fan?!! This man revolutionized the sound of American music.
You haven't heard a full Stevie album, have you?? I recommend you start with Innervisions.
Can’t be called music man and not like Stevie
Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr Stevie Wonder ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The G.O.A.T
Super! After 40 years listening his music, I’m still surprised of his genius, a pillar of music.
As a bass player, watching him laying down the rhythm like that on the synths….bone chillingly funky….👽👽👽
Stevie Wonder: GOAT of GOATs.
