    As a person slowly losing my sight, this is the single most inspiring song that I can sing as the light fades. Learning to play it on the keyboard is the joy of my life at the moment. God bless you Stevie.

      God damn, the thought of not being able to draw or see color is probably my worst nightmare. You’re a damn legend if you can go through life without being hit by it as an obstacle. I hope you don’t lose your sight, best of luck.

      I'd be honored if some Stevie Wonder fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of SEPTEMBER by Earth Wind & Fire, HEART TO HEART by Kenny Loggins, and VIRTUAL INSANITY by Jamiroquai on my YT in tribute to the masters of groove who followed the trail that Stevie blazed in the early & mid 70s. Live acoustic with no autotune. Peace and stay safe.

      ​@@livier3970, plus, no-one would probably buy a record by an artist called Stevland Morris. The name, Stevie Wonder, would be - and was and is - more likely to sell records than his birth name would be to sell and buy records. It's like George Michael's birth name was not as likely to sell records as the name, George Michael. The former wouldn't be as poppy if you like as George Michael. Record companies like to have control over their artists and can often make artists do things that aren't true to them, including name changes. That being said, Stevie Wonder is a legend, one of the best singers of the past 70 years and a music genius. Thank you for your musical brilliance, Mr Wonder. Your music will continue to influence others.

    Not only is Stevie a genious songwriter, producer, poet and activist. He also have a sense of humor.
    About a decade ago, one of my closest friends was working as a carpenter/janitor at a fancy hotel, when Stevie Wonder was in town for a gig. At around 4 in the morning the front desk got a call that there were some technical issues in one of the suites and my friend wass called up to fix it. He knocked on the door and one from Stevies entourage opened up. My friend asked what the problem was, to wich Stevie shouted: "The TV is broken! I cant see anything on it!"

    I've lost count of how many master classes this consists of. Funk? Check. Lyrical storytelling? Check. Moral to the story? Check. Passion in performance? Check...

      This song and the entire album is synthesized music except Stevie on drums and vocals . (TONTO)

      the guitars maybe but those horns aren't synthesized unless they were using sample based synthesizer which would not sound this good when this song came out

      +Joe Blow I know that but I'm not sure the other commenter was aware. There is a synthesizer in this song but it was an analog synth. replicating synth were not at the ability they are at today

    1972: Suddenly he was there with this song in the charts between Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple. Great song, no question.
