My aunt had me cracking up one day. She went through all of the artist she don't like. She said she don't like Patti cuz she yells. And she said Stevie can't sing, they just lied because he's blind. Haha. But I love Stevie.
Exactly, I don't feel these guys are looking at the video or listenting to the song for the right reason. There is a clear message in this song and no one is picking up from it. Grow up guys. Life is'nt all about video games.
The song was featured in the 1988 action film Die Hard, played when the character Argyle speaks on the phone. The song was also used in the second trailer of Grand Theft Auto V.
Love GTA, but a bit tired to see only GTA related comments/videos around this song, i'm glad this helps younger kids to find out more about the great Stevie Wonder hits, but jeez no need to always connect up to the game trailer or whatever, just enjoy it..
Always loved this video. It was very thoughtful and disturbing at the same time. Everyone has secrets from drinking, drugs, sexual abuse, and cross-dressing. It also struck me as the first time Stevie made a serious comment on how his blindness was a source of pain as a child regarding other kids. Powerful and underrated. This was a time when videos were treated like mini-movies in many cases. Loved Karen Black's performance as the alcoholic. And was that John Travolta?
I can't believe I didn't know of this song before GTA had it in the trailer. I mean I love Stevie Wonder, and I've heard many of his songs. And this one is just amazing. I feel ashamed.
STEVIE WONDER. A MAN WITH BETTER EYESIGHT THAT MOST OF US HAVE. HE IS FANTASTIC. HIS MUSIC MAKES U THINK A LOT. THRU HIS EYES. CAN'T SAY ENOUGH BOUT THIS MAN. REMEMBER I SEEN HIM AT THE ZOO. HE SANG SOME OF HIS SONGS. I REQUESTED 'ISN'T SHE LOVELY'. HE SANG IT. WOW. WHAT A MAN.
Argyle's still in that limo talking on that big ass cellphone and jamming to 🗣️"somebody done turned up the heater and it's getting ready to pop". 😖😆🤣😭😂
An episode of "A Different World" brought me here, from season 1, episode 4. The Hillman College campus was all abuzz with the rumor that Dwayne Wayne was caught in Whitley Gilbert's dorm room after hours. "Skeletons" was playing in the background when Whitley walked into the campus diner and the students were gossiping that "supposedly" Whitley had skeletons in her closet of messing around with Dwayne Wayne. Of course, the truth came out that Whitley's "fortress" was never breached lol.
It's August 30th 2022 and this is one of Stevie Wonders Prophet song 🎵, especially for now . Stevie can see the future. Let's be safe and pray. We're living in Strange times . The weather, water scarcity , elections and so much more. Somebody sitting on the Hot Seat . Be Blessed 🙌 Skeltons are real . Somebody is about to Pop . Mollie Bell 🔔 ♥ Straight Outta Compton. Prayer Warriors keep fasting. Keep Praying. The Struggle Continues Always To God Be The Glory.
Love this video, & it is one of my favorite songs from Stevie Wonder too. & This classic throwback music video from 1987 shows us the 4 different skeletons in people's closets & plainly describes who they are: & No.# 1, We see a lady secretly being a alcoholic, No.#2, We see a guy painting his nails & cross-dressing in private. No.#3, We see a man inappropriately touching his own daughter while they're watching television & lastly. No.#4, We saw a dude that was trying to snort cocaine in the bathroom. & This video truly speaks volumes too. Excellent music video from the late 1980's, I Love It. U Go Stevie Wonder, U have truly outdone yourself with this one my friend. One of the coolest videos of all time!!!
I have loved this song since it first came out, but I have never seen the video before now. THANKS SO MUCH for uploading it!! (And for those of you who are only here because of a video game, let me give you a tip: put down the control for a minute and blast up this jam. Clearly, you have a sense of great music for coming her in the first place, but this song does not need any confirmation to prove that it is THE SHIT!)
I like you, your good for showing true it's good people may like music prior to a game, yet understand it's good that people can get into this great stuff after! Thank you.
Actually this was a really political song at the time. It's about all the BS that was going on in the early 80s with the Reagan admistration, Ollie North, Iran Contra, etc. Mostly, however, it's about the LAPD and how they became, for all intents and purposes, during this period, a paramilitary organization. They were completely out of control during this period.
A #1 hit for Stevie Wonder on the Rhythm & Blues charts. It was the 588th #1 R&B song of the Rock Era. We prepare to say goodbye to 1987 and welcome in 1988. What will the R&B scene be like in the new year? Stay tuned.
Awesome! You've just discovered one of the biggest, greatest, one of the most talented artist of this century and last. Stevie is a diamond among stones.
everybody takin about GTA V and Die Hard and like THATS MAMA FIREFLY FROM DEVILS REJECTS! “What did your Mama tell you about lies?” Mama Firefly: “Remember when you were a fuckin’ baby?!”
Rockstar stays unearthing gems in their games. All y'all are late, I'm here because my parents used to watch VH1 back in the day and I remember this being one of the few bright spots in their adult-contemporary lineup at the time. Btw, that upside down plate trick is brilliant, I don't know why I never thought to use one of those in a pinch.
This song captured everything thing that was prevalent in the 90's, what goes on in the private lives of people behind closed doors, and all this is still going on today.
I was raised on Stevie Wonder. This is powerful true message
Damn... this song don't play...the funk in this song is REAL.... Stevie Wonder made a KILLER TRACK with this one!!!
Is anyone going to talk about Stevie's vocals, they're off the scale, his range, tone and way he finishes his notes are literally unparalleled
You are absolutely correct his vocals are off the chain
Facts
My aunt had me cracking up one day. She went through all of the artist she don't like. She said she don't like Patti cuz she yells. And she said Stevie can't sing, they just lied because he's blind. Haha. But I love Stevie.
💯💯💯💯🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿

All you people here from GTAV are amatuers. I'm here because of Die Hard!
foda se
yippie kay yeah
Both so fuck off
Vic Boss u for got the mudda fuqa part :)
This is a legendary song, I'm surprised it took GTA V to make this funky beat famous.
Anyone who *dislikes* this song doesn't appreciate *good music*
Or is partly deaf
Great song ..video clip is curious not related to the lyrics..
One of his BEST ever. totally underrated and forgotten, but really a true masterpiece.
Underrated? Stevie was a superstar during the 60s, 70s and 80s.
Exactly, I don't feel these guys are looking at the video or listenting to the song for the right reason. There is a clear message in this song and no one is picking up from it. Grow up guys. Life is'nt all about video games.
One of my favorites by Stevie Wonder, with a very powerful massage to which all can relate.
I remember this song as a kid and understanding it Fuily
After beating GTA V I have to say they picked the right song for the trailer. It completely fits the overall story.
Happy 70th Birthday, Stevie Wonder!!!
the guns and crank in this area go through Trevor Philipes enterprises OR THEY AINT GOING
The song was featured in the 1988 action film Die Hard, played when the character Argyle speaks on the phone.
The song was also used in the second trailer of Grand Theft Auto V.
"Welcome to the party, pal!"
"The guns and crank in this area goes through Trevor Phillips Enterprise, or they ain't going!"
Argyle was jammin in the limo and Bruce was in trouble😅😅😅😅😅
This song is funky awesomeness. Stevie is the man.
@BIGERNMcCrack. "funky awesomeness" I'm stealing.🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very underrated tune--a fav by this genius.
The video waa sooooo ahead of it's time just think this was 1987 32 years ago
IS IT JUST ME OR IS ANYONE ELSE JAMING TO THIS SONG IN 2024
🖐
What can one say other than Steveland Morris is a World Treasure. The very definition of GENIUS. This is SO dope.
Sho you right!
You are right
Genius lyrics. Great music video, but most of all, an absolutely brilliant artist!
Inr
1.46 Trevor's Car?
This was an inspiration
What are your thoughts on Far Cry 4?
Danny Abarca I waiting new game.
it isn't but it has some of similarities
no its a Jeep, the only similarities it has is that its red and a truck.
His musical gifts and creativity are God given 😊
HAPPY 70TH BIRTHDAY

"STEVIE WONDER"
(MAY 13, 2020)
Stevie might be blind but he can see through your lies lol
True.
True Lies
Powerful comment! 🤣
😂🤣😎☠️
Probably can smell the alcoholic's breath, knows the girl is scared and can detect Cocaine boy's jittery ways.
A complete musical genius.
Awesome voice ! Stevie Wonder is the greatest R&B singer.
Remember watching this song being nominated for a Grammy in '88 :) Also, John Travolta's blink-and-miss cameo still has me asking questions
@paperspeaksco, Stevie was good friends with him!!!.....My father was also a Motown artist.....Much Love to all....
@@Tiffonique that's so cool to learn. Your record collection must be worth admiring for sure 😊
Beautiful song, I used to love it in the 80's and I still love it
Love GTA, but a bit tired to see only GTA related comments/videos around this song, i'm glad this helps younger kids to find out more about the great Stevie Wonder hits, but jeez no need to always connect up to the game trailer or whatever, just enjoy it..
The Boys (1980s singing group; Tajh, Bilal, Hakeem, Khiry) are on the playground giving lil Stevie the business.
And Karen Black too.
..was this before their debut as entertainers..??
@@forthegoodofthem4182 No. This was after they made Dial My Heart.
@@christansdad Na this was late '87, one year before Dial My Heart
love this song and this video it rings so true for many people.It makes me wonder how many people I know around me that have skeletons

Yes John Travolta
Was Kristy Mcnichol the daughter of the alcoholic?
@@christopherjackson2629 really??? Let me go back to find him
Is the girl in 3:53 Susan Moonsie from Vanity 6?
This probably had a PG warning slapped on it somewhere
Hey, let's bounce.
Bounce.. we're bouncing now?
xdlugia1 i killed jimmy after they came back and he didnt txt me or respawn untill i came off the game and went back on
**Bounces**
*kills jimmy eats popcorn then bounces*
NIKO BELLIC lol
Thanks GTA for making us remember the best singers of the world and also making us forget the worses .
GTA5 brought me here and now I love this song. Thank you, rockstar for introducing me such a good song.
Happy Birthday, Stevie Wonder!!!
brings back memories...nice video and message behind it....what happened to good music and videos like this one
I can't believe I didn't know of this song before GTA had it in the trailer. I mean I love Stevie Wonder, and I've heard many of his songs. And this one is just amazing. I feel ashamed.
STEVIE WONDER. A MAN WITH BETTER EYESIGHT THAT MOST OF US HAVE. HE IS FANTASTIC. HIS MUSIC MAKES U THINK A LOT. THRU HIS EYES. CAN'T SAY ENOUGH BOUT THIS MAN. REMEMBER I SEEN HIM AT THE ZOO. HE SANG SOME OF HIS SONGS.
I REQUESTED 'ISN'T SHE LOVELY'. HE SANG IT. WOW. WHAT A MAN.
John Travolta 2:19 and Chick Corea 3:04
👍 Yes, l noticed that too.
Karen Black the alcoholic...
Man... the GTA V release date announcement with triler this song on it.… what a beautiful memories
♣ Classics never die (Hangin in the back of the limo with Argyle from Die Hard in the garage of the Nakatomi Plaza). ♣
Argyle from Die Hard 1988, amazing song and met Steve, what an amazing man!
I have heard most of Stevie Wonders other hits, and I have to thank Rockstar for GTA V, otherwise, I'd have never gotten turned on to this song.
A great 👍 song 💕😍 I will add that its message is MOST relevant these days!
If Rockstar touch that, becomes in a piece of gold... (forgive my english, I'm chilean).
Yet your English is better than 60% of native English speakers.
DGTelevsionNetwork yeah at least he gets his point across lol.
jajajjaja :v
The goat 🐐
🔥🔥🔥🔥
The LEGENDARY Mr Stevie Wonder
My Childhood brought me here.... Thanks Mom and Dad
i wanna live in the 80's and 90's :3
Those were seriously the best days.
Happy 71st Birthday to the genius Stevie Wonder.
Argyle tell me you heard the shots and you’re calling the police now.
Argyle's still in that limo talking on that big ass cellphone and jamming to 🗣️"somebody done turned up the heater and it's getting ready to pop". 😖😆🤣😭😂

Even the driver did a face like Trevor.

He taking off dem shades at the beginning of the video.
I have been looking for this song for about a year. Finally found it. Love it, love it. True, true, TRUTH!
2:20 - hey John Travolta!
That is him!
And he's got skeletons baby!
Whenever this song comes on, I can’t stop thinking of argyle jammin out to this song in the back of his limo in diehard lol
I have loved this song since it first came out, but I have never seen the video before now. THANKS SO MUCH for uploading it!!

Great summer fun back in the 80s days.

They were completely out of control during this period.
And the extended version proved this with the North and Reagan samples
My hero and idol Stevie Wonder aka THE God of ALL Music. !!!
All you born after 1989 know nothing of life. There once was a simpler time.
Easily Stevie's best song!
Still loving this in 2018
Thanks GTA V to make me discover this song!
Trevor forever!!!!

A very true story 😉 love Stevie Wonder
Amazing song!
大好きな歌なので聴けてよかったです！PVが観られてよかったです！ありがとうございます
Sure GTA5 brought me here, but Die Hard brought me here first :D
I love that part with Argyle just rocking out in the limo XD
Don't know if it's sad or awesome that I've listened to this song everyday since the GTAV trailer came out, such a great song!
Awesome! You've just discovered one of the biggest, greatest, one of the most talented artist of this century and last. Stevie is a diamond among stones.

This is the eighties
How appropriate Travolta is in the video.
Wha

This video is so much better quality than the one Utube pushes.
"Buh buh beow, beowbeowbeowbeow. There's skeletons in your closet... BUHBUHBUH BEOW BEOW" *crash*
This is fucking brilliant, exactly how I sing it too haha
