I love stevie and have worn out the those golden period records. Those 5 records are completely timeless and if I'm tbh innervisions is probably my favourite album from a contemporary artist. However, I suggest you divulge yourself into the W.A Mozart catalogue of music for a prolonged period and then consider the above statement you just made.
I hope everyone experiences a Stevie Wonder concert sometime in their life. I don't know anyone that performs EVERY hit and EVERY favored album cut like Stevie Wonder. He's absolutely amazing. So many artists only do their recent hits, do medleys or omit hits altogether, but Stevie Wonder? He does EVERYTHING. 3+ hours of the best music of your life.
the bass on the original recording is stevie's left hand rockin a synth bass line. its so funky its absolutely terrifying! nathan watts is such a badass that he took it, put it on a bass guitar, and pulled it all off and then some. go nathan!
unclejunglebass That does seem likely, but when I Googled who played bass on this it said Jack Gregg. I know that Stevie played acoustic piano and synth on this on original cut at least and you may be right about Stevie rockin a synth bass line, at least before his vocal starts.
When I was a young child to the present I feel like stevie wonder taught me things with his compositions and lyrics. I feel it is a kind of special experience hearing and feeling what is evoked inside oneself from a person who is said by many to be true inspiration and a prodigy. And to also see such a great public grace held by Stevie wonder these decade's as an example of acknowledging God is alive which is invaluable.
There are so many great things to say about Stevie, his music, and this song. Above all, his voice has not faltered one bit over the course of his long and storied career...which cannot be said of most players of his generation.
We need to start hearing about a new Doctor of Philosphy- He should be Dr. Steveland Morris-Wonder, i.e. Doctor of Philosophy in English, or Music, or Arts. It is a shame that no major university has stepped up to the plate. Hello!!!!. He Innovated the Technical Elements, & the Nature of Urban and World Music. He married a sophisticated understanding of Harmony, Composition, and Rhythm within the Spirit of Urban Music! I have a Ph.D. in Sociology. Steveland Wonder has accomplished much more than I could ever hope too. Step Up!
He has a few including one from Yale University I'm not sure what it is a doctorate for I was working in New Haven when he received it around the time Keep Our Love alive came out
Someone on the subway had an enormous speaker and I was all ready to feel annoyed but then he played this song and it was irresistible. Was like a concert.
Stevie is wonderful at what he does. I've loved this song since it first came out. This is the first time I was able to hear it LIVE!! He sounds great and this version of the song is the BEST!
I'll agree with that too! Whenever someone asks the question about what music I would take with me to a stranded island or whatever, I never hesitate to say Stevie Wonder's discography. If I only had one album to pick, I'd have to say, "Innervisions" or "Songs In The Key Of Life."
That’s funny cuz that’s my favorite part of this live version. The way he says “waiting for a chance” great singer. Too bad it wasn’t on the Natural Wonder CD.
je l'adore!!! he was born in 1950 like me!!! the best year!!!! masterpiece!! innervisions is said to be one of his best albums..i've got it and the other one too "music of my mind"..!!
Looking at your hands Hands can understand Waiting for the chance Just to hold your hand A touch of rain and sunshine made the flower grow Into a lovely smile that's blooming And it's so clear to me that you're a dream come true there's no way that I'll be loosing.........You. Mr. Steveland Wonder; a wonder-filled musical super talent that will continue to uplift many future generations to come.
The bassist is Stevie's longtime bass player, Nathan Watts. When Stevie wasn't using the synthesizer bass, Nathan was plucking it! I think his drummer was Dennis Davis.....
To all we live or have loved.. Stevie expresses just what us not so gifted manages to do. I love this song forever and this version especially. But most of all I appreciate we have been given this fantastic soul og Stevie Wonder to light up our lives!
I wish this wasn't cut from the Natural Wonder CD. This is so amazing and the band solos are sick. I wish companies would release all the good material available from legends like Stevie.
From this time period (1972 - 1977) it has been stated that Stevie created "well in excess" of 250 songs. I would love to get trapped in that vault for just a couple days to hear some non-stop unreleased jams from his signature period.
StillOneder I don’t know how, but a lot of Stevie Wonder’s unreleased songs can be easily her on youtube ! Just type in Unreleased Stevie Wonder songs .
Nice intro! As a teenager, one of my favorite Stevie songs!!! Don't know why the song just took me away... but it did....Love the way keeps escalating in keys at the end of the song!!!

One of the most influential talents in our lifetimes.. Great from note one in Fingertips to now .. a world treasure
Stevie is our generation's greatest musical innovator. He needs to be remembered on the same level as Mozart.

He will be.
Absolutely and Burt Bacharach?
He's our black Mozart
@@neilf6782 maybe not to compare but to realize his amazing genius, comparing is tricky, but I do adore him completely
Grew up with his music and I'll die with it too 😊❤
That was amazing.. I saa him at Royal Albert Hall in the 90's. Would live to see him again. Such a great showman such an amazing talent.
I love this song. This album is my favorite 🤩
God was showing-off when he created Stevie :)
The beat comment I have ever read, to describe how I feel about Stevie. I agree brother; this man is a wonder of creation 💜
I hope everyone experiences a Stevie Wonder concert sometime in their life. I don't know anyone that performs EVERY hit and EVERY favored album cut like Stevie Wonder. He's absolutely amazing. So many artists only do their recent hits, do medleys or omit hits altogether, but Stevie Wonder? He does EVERYTHING. 3+ hours of the best music of your life.
I saw Stevie in LA and I wanted to kill the sound guy! He was terrible, and when Stevie played harmonica I could BARELY hear it..I hope he got fired!
Brings back memories of my childhood in Brooklyn. I met my first childhood Brooklyn girlfriend while this song was playing.
the bass on the original recording is stevie's left hand rockin a synth bass line. its so funky its absolutely terrifying! nathan watts is such a badass that he took it, put it on a bass guitar, and pulled it all off and then some. go nathan!
He's extraordinary. Stevie is truly the King. Oh, and Ray Manzarek did the bassline on his keyboards also.
unclejunglebass That does seem likely, but when I Googled who played bass on this it said Jack Gregg. I know that Stevie played acoustic piano and synth on this on original cut at least and you may be right about Stevie rockin a synth bass line, at least before his vocal starts.

this is the best thing in the world. VIVA STEVIE WONDER!!!
i'm sure it is!
Fuck yeah it is.
There are so many great things to say about Stevie, his music, and this song. Above all, his voice has not faltered one bit over the course of his long and storied career...which cannot be said of most players of his generation.
Absolutely wonderful song by such a great talent, and this is such a great performance!! I love it!!!
This and Higher Ground are my two favorite Stevie grooves.
I can't resist saying YES! to that piano intro.

"Let me write the songs of a nation, I care not who makes its laws". (Andrew Fletcher). If only we could heal the nations with song. Oh well.
Benjamin David what a wonderful idea! We should petition and see what could be done to make it happen. A bunch of us.....for real.
That's a beautiful summary brother it's a shame that we don't revere this guy enough it cos he himself is so humble lol
He has a few including one from Yale University I'm not sure what it is a doctorate for I was working in New Haven when he received it around the time Keep Our Love alive came out
Magic by Stevie Wonder, went to see him last June, best gig EVER !!! Thanks Stevie
stevie knows this is a special song, you can see it in his smile in the pause before he hits the first note
I'd like to go there!!
Someone on the subway had an enormous speaker and I was all ready to feel annoyed but then he played this song and it was irresistible. Was like a concert.
Deze man is voor mij het Licht geweest geweest in donkere tijden. Thank U4 the music, Stevie.
Stevie is wonderful at what he does. I've loved this song since it first came out. This is the first time I was able to hear it LIVE!! He sounds great and this version of the song is the BEST!
beethoven, mozart of our time
In Choi best statement ever
i agree!! Stevie is the best! Greetings from Russia to all SW fans :))
This was his ode to Minnie Riperton, very sweet
1 man born blind. Conquered everything through his beliefs. 1 Legend.
Wasn't total blind as an infant, but lost it all vision by the age of five, I believe
Wrong. Born premature. Lost sight immediately after birth while in an incubator when too much oxygen was given to him.@@todmainzer2241
If there is anyone who doesn,t like Stevie Wonder & his music i strongly recommend you seek medical attention .
OUR LIVING LEGEND......
Is like I discover something new about Stevie Wonder every time I hear his music! 👍👌
I'll agree with that too! Whenever someone asks the question about what music I would take with me to a stranded island or whatever, I never hesitate to say Stevie Wonder's discography. If I only had one album to pick, I'd have to say, "Innervisions" or "Songs In The Key Of Life."
Nancy loved this song as do I.
My mum got me into stevie. played it around the house ever since i was born. i cant imagine life without his music now
A TRUE LEGEND OF R AND B MUSIC. LONG LIVE STEVIE WONDER.
Stevie is actually the greatest ever, I mean everyone before him and since does not match up to him
The vocal ability he demonstrates @ 2:11 is unreal..
what is special about it? the whole song is a incredible showcase of stevie wonder large range and creative songwriting
That’s funny cuz that’s my favorite part of this live version. The way he says “waiting for a chance” great singer. Too bad it wasn’t on the Natural Wonder CD.
I adore this song such magical lyrics how much talent in this man makes life worth living
Stevie,Stevie what a wonder I love his music.

Not only Is Stevie Wonder Amazing But his team is also in such Sync with him its amazing some music can't be replicated the same way ever again.
I wish this wasn't cut from the Natural Wonder CD. This is so amazing and the band solos are sick. I wish companies would release all the good material available from legends like Stevie.
