It brought a tear to my eyes , then stevie wonder say he promises to have me on his show for an hour 😂 that's one of the reasons Stevie Wonder is a blessing from god .
I was too. When you're brought up in a musical environment, and get to be one on one with these legends, It's a feeling that you can't put into words. Imagine how little time left we have with these geniuses of musical talent.
I love the fact that James was crying over the fact that not only is Stevie Wonder singing to his wife over the phone, but the fact that his wife LOVES Stevie Wonder, so this was amazing for not only her, but for him...
@@thomasbrady8056 that's a shame to hear, but I don't doubt you. When the cameras are rolling people often become chamelions. I hope you have a job where you are appreciated now.
The way James Cordon tears up because he is so overwhelmed with joy and happiness that Stevie was singing to his wife......Seriously amazing and beautiful. Edit; thank you all for the likes, and for appreciating genuineness! !
+Jane S it's truly touching to watch. It isn't very often we perceive and witness true unadulterated joy and happiness, specifically from a male (no hate here, but living in a society where violent masculinity trumps pure kind emotion) I just love that moment because of its sincerity.
Stevie: "All English guys look alike, sound alike. No offense., Man. You know." . It reminds me of when an interviewer asked Stevie, "But, don't you wish you hadn't been born blind?" and Stevie replies ""Hey, it could've been much worse - I could have been born black". Wonderful sense of humor.
I loved James reaction when Stevie Wonder began to sing "I Just Called To Say James Loves You." James' reaction is soooo heartfelt.....That's the magic of Mr. Stevie Wonder
+NIMERKING Stevie also did another funny video with James C signing and freestyling about his 1 year VEGAN anniversary! Whatever Wonder touches turns to gold like goldschlagers.
I agree that Stevie Wonder is an amazing phenomena.... But I'm not understanding, is he at risk from something/someone? What does he need protecting from?
I don't think it is financial protection. But SW was scheduled to undergo a kidney transplant in July 2019. If it went through, then we should hope and pray that he stays well.
James Corden is such a humble, cool, and down-to-earth. He geeked out when Stevie sang to his wife. It brought him to tears. I think I cried with him a lil bit. I absolutely love Carpool Karaoke and how it spotlights the realness of the Superstars we know and love.
If a blind man like Steve wonder can light up the room with his wonderful smile, then the whole world can learn from this lovely inspirational man and smile together no matter what life throws at you. Such a great human being, and I'm glad I've lived in his Era to see him and Stevie grace us with his wonderful instrumental playing and singing. God bless you Stevie wonder.
I once tried singing one of his songs during karaoke night and failed miserably. I thought I'd be alright because there weren't any super high notes, but his delivery is what makes his songs. His tone, his riffs, seamless key changes, and his intuitive musicality that I definitely didn't have. Many people can sing a song, but only masters can create magic.
pat c Did you know he wasn't born blind? A mistake at the hospital days after he was born caused it. For that he should've already been rich but possibly his blindness enhanced his skills/talents & he's phenomenal!

Kalista Siregar I agree....I was taken aback by that phone call. I wonder if I,would have had an appropriate reaction if i was on the other end. Stevie sounds amazing
Several days ago, I finished listening to Stevie's entire songbook on Spotify. As a radio DJ with 25 years of experience playing any music genre under the sun, I can safely say that he is a songwriting giant. I am very picky in my selections, but I managed to archive 237 of his songs. His melodic and harmonic inventiveness is awe-inspiring, and his use of modulation is the best in the business.
He’s the greatest American musician of all time and the greatest songwriter of the 20th century. His peers in music are long dead and long yet to come.
@@Boogalyhu He is ONE of the greatest POPULAR music singer-songwriters not only of America but also of the world. But, when you start with the hyperbole, your post loses all credibility and smacks of carrying a nationalist monkey on your back. I'm pretty sure that you haven't listened to enough of even popular music to know what you're talking about, let alone other genres, such as classical or jazz, which are infinitely more complex and sophisticated.
@@deanronson6331 I am a very experienced music listeners with extensive knowledge and collection in everything from jazz, to rock, to electronic, to hip hip, to R&B, etc. Everything from Duke Ellington to Fela Kuti to The Prodigy. Stevie is the best songwriter of the 20th century in my opinion. This is not an uncommon opinion in both music fan and creator spaces. Since you seem to adhere to the academic veneration of Jazz and Classical, take a look at what Miles Davis had to say about Stevie in his prime. I respect if you have a different opinion, but my opinion is not perceived as hyperbole in serious music discussion spaces. It quite a common one.
@David Michaels Black people's skin is *not* thicker. The reason darker skin often looks "younger" longer is because the pigment melanin helps protects the skin from some of the damaging rays of the sun. The assumption of "thicker skin" has led to tons of historical brutality against Blacks from ignoramuses who assume they don't feel pain, can bear more pain--people from brutal police to poorly trained doctors who deny pain medication to Black people who are in severe pain. Maybe the melanin is compensation for some of the thin-skinned know-it-alls with whom they now share the planet.
You should look up the outtakes of "we are the world" at one time everybody launched into the "Banana boat song" in which they talked about having to work all night to finish the song up. Stevie then makes a joke about everybody being too exhausted so he and Ray Charles were the only ones fit enough to drive them all home. The room just exploded in laughter.
RastaSaiyaman sure mate, the fact remains it’s weird that you’re advising him to look it up and then just spoiling the whole thing. Either tell em to look up something or just tell the story. This is like telling someone “Hey, you should see the sixth sense, it’s a cool movie with Bruce Willis and in the end he turned out to be dead the whole time.” It’s just weird.
James was in tears as well. That's love for ya... Touches everyone... But not me... I had a bug fly in my eye. And had to.... Get a tissue to get it out.
Fun fact he was going to retire (at 24? Who does that?) Until his daughter aisha came along. If it weren't for her songs in the key of life wouldn't have happen. True story.
I sang it to my premature little girl in hospital when she was born. Now she’s 4 and asks to dance to that song with Daddy. I have played it a hundred times at small gigs too.
@@colebypaton538 I love McCartney, but to be fair Stevie Wonder didn't have a Ringo or Lennon, that's beside the fact of Stevie's proficiency at 10 different instruments despite his blindness and being a black man starting his career in 1960s America which was much more receptive to the clean cut European Beatles
@@colebypaton538 I respect that. We all have our favorites and our opinions. Rarely have I witnessed people changing their minds especially in a discussion forum. It's OK to disagree, just be respectful, that's what my dad would always say. Peace.
Disney Creates Dreams a bit of trivia: Stevie wasn’t born blind; he was born with normal sight but was a bit jaundiced, and was kept in the incubator too long and it damaged his eyes.
Dennis Taylor Berry Gordy founder of Motown pegged him exactly right from Steveland Morris to Stevie Wonder at 12 yrs. old because as he said, he's Truly a Wonder!!!
To all of you who are not happy. There is nothing wrong with you just because this video doesnt make you happy even tho Cap lock has a point. Thank you for listening.
Well, this is going onto me “Cheer me up” list, along with the David Tennant-Catherine Tate Schoolroom episode of the Catherine Tate show, the “Dean Cat Scream,” especially the Blooper one, and every Hillywood Parody and Jake Dudman video. I love great singing, impressions, parodies (ones in good taste anyway) and I take pleasure from the Joy James is showing and Stevie’s love of Life. I don’t necessarily think there’s something inherently wrong with a person who doesn’t enjoy this, some may simply not be able to find joy in light-hearted things, I know what Cap Lock means though. This is full of very positive, infectious good energy, but you have to be able and willing to let it in. I’m depressed about much of my Life like nobody’s business, but the trick is to look for things to ENJOY in what you experience, not look for mistakes, errors, or other negative bits. I have a dear friend who is a TOTAL “Eeyore.” He’s a really nice guy, but he is always depressed because he chooses to look down on himself, has seen Doctors but gave up when he’d try a prescription drug for a few weeks (those shouldn’t be over prescribed, but he really does need something to start off with, until he can do it on his own) and it didn’t work (some take a couple months at least), he’d give up, and left them when they told him he needed to take control to try and change things (he heard it as “...suck it up or live with it.”) So I asked him when he told me that “Do you think you DON’T have to do that as a starting point?” Well. He never answered me and wouldn’t talk to me for about two weeks. (I have anxiety disorders too, I was a mess until I found some true friends in High School.) Them I CHOSE to BELIEVE I was a likable person. They were real friends.That was the first step. And I and my boyfriend and a few other people have really tried to get Eeyore out of his slump. But, bottom line, I think he just plain doesn’t want to. He doesn’t want to enjoy things too much, doesn’t want to feel too much, because that can lead to pain. I know many, many years ago he had a secret fiancée who killed herself. He hasn’t volunteered the whole story and I won’t ask. But it breaks my heart he takes so little joy in things, because he has a good heart. His brain just keeps F’ing with him. And he’s rarely moved by stuff. He is a Whovian, though, and did manage to drum up a smidge of emotion at the pivotal museum scene in “Vincent and The Doctor.” Now, if you don’t get moved by that, you’ve a dead heart. And don’t say “It’s only a TV show.” That’s NOT how shows like Doctor Who should be watched, they aren’t clinical, like Xrays, something to study but not let it do what it’s meant to, you need to let yourself INTO that world, suspend your disbelief and let it draw you in. I really pity people who cant do that. And most episodes don’t move my Eeyore (hey, Eeyore was always my favorite character in W.T.P!) friend. But that one did. As did “The Angels Take Manhattan.” Oh, and on an interesting note, I showed him a James Corden skit (he remembered one of the episodes where James was on Doctor Who) and he actually said he really enjoyed it. So I’ll share more with him. Maybe it will help lighten the big gray cloud over his head. So, not liking this doesn’t make you a bad person. It may mean you’re a Negative Nellie (or Nathan) by Nature. You may have a wall (“A big, beautiful wall, a yuge wall, with a huge door in it, and places you can see through because you have to see what’s on the other side!” 🙄) up. There a several reasons. I’d say if you’re not one of the near 48 million people who enjoyed this, though, you may want to do a little self-perusal...
💯percent. Just like in Jazz, the 11 commandment is : thou shalt not scat. Translation: everybody try’s to do it and it’s terrible when they attempt it.
This is amazing! I don’t want carpool kareeoke to be over. Don’t leave James. This makes people laugh and feel good. We all need this in this world right now.
Stevie Wonder is untouchable! Enjoy and cherish him while you can because the greats seem to be leaving us by the chunks year after year. This genius is invaluable. Go to concerts if you can before it's too late! Recognize the legend while he's still here before it's too late! And pass the music ON.
Absolutely! But such a genius never will leave us - his music will live forever! Thank you Stevie for all your magnificent music and uplifting energy! Infinite love all of your music!
Never touch a harmonica in the presence of Stevie Wonder. Never interrupt Stevie Wonder when he is playing the harmonica. Never ever is there going to be a better harmonica player than Wonder.
Its hard to put into words just how musically gifted this man is. From playing ability across multiple instruments... to singing ability.. to composing ability.. to producing ability. The man could do it all. Then you add in the fact that hes blind.
Top 3 Carpool Karaokes: 1) Paul McCartney 2) Elton John 3) Stevie Wonder Dream Carpool Karaoke: If these two legends were alive, Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson would have been perfect for this...
That in it's self is a discriminatory statement because dispite his disability he has done way more for the human spirit as a whole than most entertainers ever will or have done in their lifetimes. There are a very special few that have that ability weather or not they have a disability!!!!!
You can see that James Corden is such a genuine guy, the way his love for his wife brings him to tears 🥺🥺 the hate for him is so unwarranted! Going to miss this show so much

@David Michaels You're so right.
@@carpet7398 and then we have prince charles
@David Michaels Black people's skin is *not* thicker. The reason darker skin often looks "younger" longer is because the pigment melanin helps protects the skin from some of the damaging rays of the sun. The assumption of "thicker skin" has led to tons of historical brutality against Blacks from ignoramuses who assume they don't feel pain, can bear more pain--people from brutal police to poorly trained doctors who deny pain medication to Black people who are in severe pain. Maybe the melanin is compensation for some of the thin-skinned know-it-alls with whom they now share the planet.
And 15 year old me with acne 😩
Stevie Wonder hasn't lost a step! His voice sounds exactly like it did in his earlier days. Not all artists can make that claim.
He can't get up the pitch as he could but it's Still incredible how great it sounds!
Little lower yea. That nature. Still voice in great shape!!
MixingGBP it doesnt sound exactly the same its alot more nasal
MixingGBP he needs to release new music
@@louisaddeo-weiss5690
He needs to do nothing if he so desires.
Don't be greedy.
Isn't it beautiful how he sings with so much happiness with every artist he interviews
Stevie wonder is a natural comedian
You should look up the outtakes of "we are the world" at one time everybody launched into the "Banana boat song" in which they talked about having to work all night to finish the song up. Stevie then makes a joke about everybody being too exhausted so he and Ray Charles were the only ones fit enough to drive them all home.
The room just exploded in laughter.
RastaSaiyaman love how you’re telling someone to look something up, and then spoiling the whole bit. Oh yeah.
@@thames21 Well not everybody goes out of their way to look a clip up just because somebody says they ought to do so.
RastaSaiyaman sure mate, the fact remains it’s weird that you’re advising him to look it up and then just spoiling the whole thing. Either tell em to look up something or just tell the story. This is like telling someone “Hey, you should see the sixth sense, it’s a cool movie with Bruce Willis and in the end he turned out to be dead the whole time.” It’s just weird.
Stevie's dressed appropriately for the part.
Sensei Wonder.
Jamal Dantata I CRACKED UP SHYT HAHA
Jamal Dantata everybody was kung fu fighting
I love that Stevie is always smiling.
I‘m sure that if he could see this wrld, he wouldnt always smile.
@@RahelPie just because he's blind doesn't mean he's ignorant to the world around him
Mr. Stevie has a smile that can brighten the saddest of hearts; he is a real joy!
Angie Michelle hm naah. You‘re just gay
Rahel Pie and you’re a bitter attention seeker.
Sign sealed Delivered is one of my favorite songs ever by my Uncle Stevie Wonder
I got all teary eyed when he sang to James' wife.
cyborghunter26 me too
cyborghunter26
so did I .... like a big baby.
cyborghunter26 same here and and ain't ashamed about it
cyborghunter26 is a
so did James
I was in tears when he called Julia. OMG, this is a lifetime moment indeed.
I legit yelled LOL I would die if I got a call let alone get to hear stevie SING to me over the phone as a surprise omg lol
Yup. He's definitely getting laid tonight.
James was in tears as well. That's love for ya... Touches everyone... But not me... I had a bug fly in my eye. And had to.... Get a tissue to get it out.
me too!
When my daughter was born I used to sing" isn't she lovely" to her her every day. I love all of Stevie Wonders songs.
Fun fact he was going to retire (at 24? Who does that?) Until his daughter aisha came along. If it weren't for her songs in the key of life wouldn't have happen. True story.
that's so sweet 💜
With both my sons u wold sing I just call to say I love you
My parents did the same when I was born.
I sang it to my premature little girl in hospital when she was born. Now she’s 4 and asks to dance to that song with Daddy. I have played it a hundred times at small gigs too.
Driving in a car, with Stevie Wonder, listening to Stevie Wonder... Sounds like a perfect afternoon to me!
You got Stevie Wonder in the car, you can really just turn off the radio completely.
Facts
He's blind, not deaf
Wait I'm an idiot, carry on
Fax
Disliking this is damn near unfathomable to me. Stevie is untouchable. A national treasure. What a human.
wobblebomb they probably went to hit the like button and missed
I was wondering who could not like this video. Its funny and wholesome, and Stevie Wonder.
Agreed.
RIP to MJ & Whitney, this man is the greatest musician still living in 2024
Hands down!
One of them I wouldn't say the greatest though. In my opinion it would be Paul McCartney
@@colebypaton538 I love McCartney, but to be fair Stevie Wonder didn't have a Ringo or Lennon, that's beside the fact of Stevie's proficiency at 10 different instruments despite his blindness and being a black man starting his career in 1960s America which was much more receptive to the clean cut European Beatles
@@colebypaton538 I respect that. We all have our favorites and our opinions. Rarely have I witnessed people changing their minds especially in a discussion forum. It's OK to disagree, just be respectful, that's what my dad would always say. Peace.
@@carlanderton3rd yeah ok you've convinced me lol without lennon and ringo the beatles would have no where near the same sound
Stevie is ONE OF THE BEST MUSICIANS of all time! Love you Stevie ❤❤❤
He is SO GOOD live too..
Voice is still on point even after all these years. Long live the legend Stevie Wonder
He is amazing live 💯💗
Stevie is the smartest, gifted man ever. Born blind and taught himself the piano by the touch of the keys. Just brilliant.
Disney Creates Dreams ..also wrote and produced some great songs too you know..lol just messing with you. Truly a wonder!
Disney Creates Dreams a bit of trivia: Stevie wasn’t born blind; he was born with normal sight but was a bit jaundiced, and was kept in the incubator too long and it damaged his eyes.
Indeed. A lovely person.
No, you’re thinking of ray charles.
Disney Creates Dreams my thoughts exactly
I just smiled for 10 minutes straight.
Me too haha
what about the 52 seconds though
Are you sure?
Stevie always makes me feel happy!
Me to lve watched it dozens of times it always cheers me up. It's on my F.B page many times
THANKYOU Thankyou ❤🥰❤🥰❤
One of my all time favorites! I think it's because Stevie is SO REAL!
Stevie had me dying at "Nothing to do with me mate"
The love he showed in this video was awesome !
+bakerXderek This is the second time now go make some video's now. CHEEEEAAAAAAAA
+bakerXderek Stevie is hilarious. Who knew? I truly enjoyed this video...
CHEEEEAAAAAHH!!!! I love your #sex3sex
Chyeeeeeeeeah!!
Awesome
with the time flying by you forget how awesome stevie wonder is
JAAPIOJO ok
Dennis Taylor Berry Gordy founder of Motown pegged him exactly right from Steveland Morris to Stevie Wonder at 12 yrs. old because as he said, he's Truly a Wonder!!!
Dennis Taylor hi
I think that's the happiest I've seen James ever in any carpool. That was really good to watch. ❤
Maria Garginian and the one with Paul McCartney
Yeah you forgot the Paul McCartney one haha
I agree. It was heartwarming to watch.
He actually quotes stevie calling his wife as his favourite carpool karaoke moment ever on vogue 73 q's
That's because hes with a proper musician and star. Not today's turds.
I love Stevie, his concert was amazing years ago, all his records are the best from this LEGEND-Love, KC
I can't think of anything most romantic, Stevie Wonder just secured at least 40 more years of marriage for James
When he started singing “I just called to say James loves you” I literally started ballin my eyes out...
siv hagen did you though
siv hagen why tho it had nothing to do with you
Dylan Evans probably bc it was so sweet
It’s such a shame that Freddie Mercury couldn’t do one of these
Agreed
John Lennon and George Harrison too
Lets dig him up!
Michael Jackson would’ve loved this as well
David bowie could have but he didnt
Stevie's music is timeless there are no words to describe his insight
This is so cool that Stevie Wonder was willing to do this. A lot of the legends don't like doing fun things like this. Great show!!!
I read that this was the longest time James spent with anyone on this segment. Stevie wanted to just keep going!
Mike Follis really? That's so cool. Singing in the car with Stevie Wonder...amazing.
yes James said they were in the car for 3 hours!!!
Why for this guy!They are making a no talent a star!!
+Rahloh McDonogh Which guy?
If this doesn't make you feel really happy and good inside there's something wrong with you
Cap lock productions 😉😊
I guess theres something wrong with me
Cap lock productions something is wrong with me.
To all of you who are not happy. There is nothing wrong with you just because this video doesnt make you happy even tho Cap lock has a point. Thank you for listening.
Well, this is going onto me “Cheer me up” list, along with the David Tennant-Catherine Tate Schoolroom episode of the Catherine Tate show, the “Dean Cat Scream,” especially the Blooper one, and every Hillywood Parody and Jake Dudman video. I love great singing, impressions, parodies (ones in good taste anyway) and I take pleasure from the Joy James is showing and Stevie’s love of Life.
I don’t necessarily think there’s something inherently wrong with a person who doesn’t enjoy this, some may simply not be able to find joy in light-hearted things, I know what Cap Lock means though.
This is full of very positive, infectious good energy, but you have to be able and willing to let it in. I’m depressed about much of my Life like nobody’s business, but the trick is to look for things to ENJOY in what you experience, not look for mistakes, errors, or other negative bits. I have a dear friend who is a TOTAL “Eeyore.”
He’s a really nice guy, but he is always depressed because he chooses to look down on himself, has seen Doctors but gave up when he’d try a prescription drug for a few weeks (those shouldn’t be over prescribed, but he really does need something to start off with, until he can do it on his own) and it didn’t work (some take a couple months at least), he’d give up, and left them when they told him he needed to take control to try and change things (he heard it as “...suck it up or live with it.”) So I asked him when he told me that “Do you think you DON’T have to do that as a starting point?”
Well.
He never answered me and wouldn’t talk to me for about two weeks. (I have anxiety disorders too, I was a mess until I found some true friends in High School.) Them I CHOSE to BELIEVE I was a likable person. They were real friends.That was the first step.
And I and my boyfriend and a few other people have really tried to get Eeyore out of his slump. But, bottom line, I think he just plain doesn’t want to. He doesn’t want to enjoy things too much, doesn’t want to feel too much, because that can lead to pain. I know many, many years ago he had a secret fiancée who killed herself. He hasn’t volunteered the whole story and I won’t ask. But it breaks my heart he takes so little joy in things, because he has a good heart. His brain just keeps F’ing with him. And he’s rarely moved by stuff. He is a Whovian, though, and did manage to drum up a smidge of emotion at the pivotal museum scene in “Vincent and The Doctor.” Now, if you don’t get moved by that, you’ve a dead heart. And don’t say “It’s only a TV show.” That’s NOT how shows like Doctor Who should be watched, they aren’t clinical, like Xrays, something to study but not let it do what it’s meant to, you need to let yourself INTO that world, suspend your disbelief and let it draw you in. I really pity people who cant do that. And most episodes don’t move my Eeyore (hey, Eeyore was always my favorite character in W.T.P!) friend. But that one did. As did “The Angels Take Manhattan.”
Oh, and on an interesting note, I showed him a James Corden skit (he remembered one of the episodes where James was on Doctor Who) and he actually said he really enjoyed it. So I’ll share more with him. Maybe it will help lighten the big gray cloud over his head.
So, not liking this doesn’t make you a bad person. It may mean you’re a Negative Nellie (or Nathan) by Nature. You may have a wall (“A big, beautiful wall, a yuge wall, with a huge door in it, and places you can see through because you have to see what’s on the other side!” 🙄) up. There a several reasons. I’d say if you’re not one of the near 48 million people who enjoyed this, though, you may want to do a little self-perusal...
"Don't touch a harmonica ever! " Priceless......
💯percent. Just like in Jazz, the 11 commandment is : thou shalt not scat.
Translation: everybody try’s to do it and it’s terrible when they attempt it.
Was that funny enough?
This is amazing! I don’t want carpool kareeoke to be over. Don’t leave James. This makes people laugh and feel good. We all need this in this world right now.
For sure I have been watching reruns
Legend is thrown around a lot lately, but Stevie is definitely one of the true legends still left! What a guy!
Legend is thrown around too much lately? Hopefully with real legends.
This is so true. Some of the people we call "legends" these days aren't even, well, legendary.
Michael Sobanjo
Well it's a mistake to call a musician who has not done that much "legend"
+Enrique Godinez Stevie Wonder will leave a legacy, he is a legend.
+lee denbigh So true!
How lucky this man is to be able to jam to all these classics with the legends that made them !!
What id give.......
Honestly!
James started to get teary eyed! How sweet!
Isn't she lovely isn't she wonderful
.
+Fallen Knightingale wait what?!? 😂
When??
+XXX5🌌@🐻 when Stevie called to her wife and sang to her
1995 I was in Harlem NY and went to Abyssinian Baptist Church… Stevie too!!! He sang at the pulpit. One of the best days of my life🥰🥰🤤
literally cried when he sang to his wife, how absolutely amazing and beautiful!!!!!! Love this one!
James did too
Omg metoooo! Such a wreck 😫
Which wive theres 5
Stevie Wonder is untouchable! Enjoy and cherish him while you can because the greats seem to be leaving us by the chunks year after year. This genius is invaluable. Go to concerts if you can before it's too late! Recognize the legend while he's still here before it's too late! And pass the music ON.
Agreed
Absolutely! But such a genius never will leave us - his music will live forever! Thank you Stevie for all your magnificent music and uplifting energy! Infinite love all of your music!
I agree!!!
Couldn't agree more 👍🏼👍🏼
@@virasusanty1456 RIP nipsey
Never touch a harmonica in the presence of Stevie Wonder.
Never interrupt Stevie Wonder when he is playing the harmonica.
Never ever is there going to be a better harmonica player than Wonder.
TRUTH😂😂😂
I don't care who ever this stop it
?
my name is Anna and I want to french braid please can you do it for me
A french braid is very easy to do but I cannot help you. Ask a hairdresser. Good luck.
Its hard to put into words just how musically gifted this man is. From playing ability across multiple instruments... to singing ability.. to composing ability.. to producing ability. The man could do it all. Then you add in the fact that hes blind.
Top 3 Carpool Karaokes:
1) Paul McCartney
2) Elton John
3) Stevie Wonder
Dream Carpool Karaoke:
If these two legends were alive, Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson would have been perfect for this...
yeeeees ❤
Red Hot Chili Peppers had a good one, but not as good as those three
George Michael ♥️
Agreed
Don't forget whitney houston
When a man can’t see the evils of this world he has nothing but love in he’s heart
so true
Well said
That in it's self is a discriminatory statement because dispite his disability he has done way more for the human spirit as a whole than most entertainers ever will or have done in their lifetimes. There are a very special few that have that ability weather or not they have a disability!!!!!
Ooooohhhh preach it!!!
What makes you think he can’t see the evils in the world? You don’t need sight to see them
THIS IS EMMY WORTHY. So funny and surprisingly emotional. This is my favorite carpool karaoke yet!
This one got me in the feelers. James love for his wife and his happy like a kid eating ice cream face.

You can see that James Corden is such a genuine guy, the way his love for his wife brings him to tears 🥺🥺 the hate for him is so unwarranted! Going to miss this show so much
Who else had perma-grin the entire time watching this? I Love Stevie Wonder so much! He is such a beautiful pure soul.
Marlena K he is a LEGEND!!!
Marlena K Definitely
Marlena K me
Vc é linda. ..
Marlena k8 ... I soooooooo did omg! 😆
Stevie's kindness and charming to personality can disarm anyone.
Stevie's blind, but he gave a colorful life to us who can see, bcoz of his music. Thankyou Stevie! You're legendary ❤️ we love you from the Philippines 🇵🇭
His blindness is a publicity stunt.
He’s blind like “magic Johnson” has HIV
Why does the car look so high up? I don’t get it
@@poopgod69 he actually is blind
@@outsidechambaz no he's not
One of the best videos I’ve watched in a while! I’m a huge fan of Stevie and this clip had me crying and laughing at the same time! Wonderful!
