Stevie Wonder - Isn't She Lovely
** Stevie starts by bring foward his daughter, who sings in his band, and tells the story about when he wrote this song for her... while of course making classic Stevie jokes along the way **
** On the Songs in the Key of Life Tour where he played the whole album through **
John Paul Jones Arena ( UVA ) // Charlottesville, VA 11/18/2015
Many years ago. I was at a Stevie Wonder concert where when the audience sang the whole song with him, he broke out in tears. Aisha was standing next to him and wiped his eyes 😢❤
This is so beautiful, I never knew that is the reason for the precious baby crying in the beginning of the song. ❤❤❤❤
@@DeborahJodeh-jp7ug It's never too LATE to find Stevie's WONDERful songs!! And the meaning of them...
The sounds of a baby crying that you can hear in the beginning is actually a recording of ANOTHER baby, that was someone that Stevie knew , (he knew the MOTHER of that baby)and he was given permission to use that sound- and it is taken from the direct moment when the baby was being born!
Stevie talked about this in an interview that I read!
Later in the song it is Aisha , his daughter - when she is in the bath!
And Stevie talking to her! "Get out of the water baby" and so on...
("Isn't she lovely" from 1976 and The GREAT album "Songs in the key of life"!!) 💖💖💖
Such a beautiful song. True love from daddy to daughter. ❤❤
Beautiful song for a beautiful daughter. I bought this album when it came out-I was 19. I still have it. Love Stevie Wonder-who doesn’t?! 🥰
Still have mine, too. I’m just about your age, too!
Too bad he can't see her .
❤❤❤" Stevie Wonder"❤❤❤ The very first time I saw Stevie, I was a young teenage girl. He was himself very, very young and was performing "Back-In-Da'-Day" at a concert with some of The Great Motown Performers onstage...my 3 sisters and I begged, pleaded with our parents to buy our tickets to see the show...They Did!!!!!!
He was billed then as "Little Stevie Wonder"!!! When they lead him out onstage with his harmonica in his hand, the audience went CRAZIE!!!
I never forgot the talent he possessed and have Loved his music, every album "ForEvvvvah". Many years later, after I got married and my daughter was born, my Dad would play: "Isn't She Lovely!" on our old family,"victrola" and dance together with his GrandEdaughter, "cheek-to-cheek", holding her with their arms extended out mimicking the great ballroom dancers seen on TV. My Dad has now transitioned a long time ago. My beautiful, spicy, loving, Luminous daughter has continued to thrive...despite the doc's initial born day diagnosis and challenges with which she was born. "Look-At-GOD"!!! Whenever we hear Stevie Wonder's music, It's ONNNnnnnn...'Isn't She Lovely !!!
Stevie Wonder's Music has remained a message for All of...
😇💕🤗🤗💕🌟🙏🏽🌟💕🤗🤗💕😇
To sing the song in higher keys decades after, is testament to this man's ability, durability and emmense versatility
"Immense"
He's THE Goat!!
Same key as recording.. and i have PP .. I'm hearing A F# B notes all through that.
@@MrSmileyPeople O K my bad
He's still got it!!! I grew up listening to Stevie Wonder, and he sounds as awesome today as he did all those years ago!!
I agree
He is blind but he didn’t lie - she is lovely❤. What a blessing to have a talented Daddy write a song like this for you 💐
So sweet. Stevie makes those of us that remember when this song came out feel old. Aisha a grown woman with 2 kids! It's true. Time does fly!
A classic song that touches folks all over the world. A thanksgiving for a child immortalized. She has to feel the love.
No ways she could ever doubt it! God bless you
He's proud of his little girl.
Love him to pieces. Definelly a wonderful memory. That’s when music was real.
"Little" Stevie Wonder. Thank you for all these years of memories, smiles, and tears.
I am my dad’s first child and 42 years ago 😱 he was inspired by this song and my name is Aishia❤️ (LIFE) they just don’t make music like this anymore.
Wow
Oh wow! Cool❤
I named my first born daughter Aisha after this song too! 😂
Oh wow his voice is still young and strong love ya Stevie ❤
I'm nearly the same age as Stevie Wonder. We all went crazy when "Fingertips" was a hit. Many years later I saw him perform in Los Angeles with an all Black orchestra. I also sat near him at the Forum in Inglewood CA at a Jackson 5 concert. Last time I saw him at the airport in Atlanta. I love his lyrics, wisdom and humanity. Thank you for the music that's has been a part of my life❤
A natural incredible high octave gifted to this talented legend after so many times in use... priceless 😂
This song always got to me ,he has never been able to see ,and yet he wrote this song for her , Stevie is a true wonder 👍👍👍👍
He saw her in his own way. I have a blind friend who "acts" as he isnt; he embraces life to the fullest. Ive experience walking outside with him on a many sunny days. He always says, " Wow, what a beautiful 'sunshiney' day!" ( my daughter's name happens to ve Sunshine) . One doesnt need physical eyes to see. There is a special spiituality embedded in each of us. OWN it! 🎯🎯
My first was a girl.
She can not remember the times as a baby, Stevie Wonder and I sang of just how lovely and wonderful she was and is.
What a pleasure to see and hear him with his beautiful daughter.
Thank you Stevie Wonder for this and every song we have loved throughout a lifetime of your music.
I agree with everything about WONDERful Stevie!!!
But I just want you to know that this girl in this video is NOT his daughter Aisha!
The one that posted this must change the words - cause it's misleading!
This girl is one of his backupsingers!
Aisha is also his backupsinger since quite many years ago ,- but it's not her standing with Stevie in this clip!
Just wanted to tell.... 🙂
(I've LOVED Stevie since I could understand music! And was LUCKY to see him live 3 times!
Some of the HAPPIEST moments in my life!!!)
@@marianystrom7570 Thank you for clarifying that, it is very nice of you.
@@user-ux8dc9qj2m You're welcome!
And nice of YOU to thank me !😊
Just a SMALL detail here : I wrote that I "LOVED Stevie since I could understand music"..
I made a little mistake with the spelling......
Now I've changed it.......
And it's :" I've LOVED Stevie......" (It could be misunderstood with what i first wrote, cause I made a small mistake with a FEW words....!) Don't know if you noticed?
But ANYWAY - my LOVE for Stevie is just as BIG - even if I did a small mistake with the grammar!!!❤
(Still waiting for the one that posted this video to CHANGE his words about Stevie's daughter............
I HOPE he'll do that soon........!)
@@marianystrom7570 I am in your boat, I was a child growing up with Mr. Wonder. And as a child, what I sang and understood, was not necessarily the same or correct....
But the soul he gave, always shown through.
Yes, he should change it.
I loved this album my whole family partied everyday after work and school. And isnt she lovely was in the top of our list. I was 14yrs old. When this song came out. I always thought WOW! What lucky little girl!
Ditto 👍
The Saturday before Palm Sunday! 6:55am! I get to hear and see a performance from one of the greatest artists on the planet! A man of our times!!! I was born in 1953, and I just mentioned to my sister how we were born in one decade and are aging in the 21st century. I am the oldest of nine, and we all grew up on your music!!! May Our God continue to bless you and your family!
Highly gifted and a great sense of humor. Just love him.. Btw, his voice is just as youthful today than it was back in the day!!
I name my daughter Aisha. She is lovely.Thanks Stevie . Your daughter is lovely.❤❤
Its wonderful to see Mr Stevie Wonder still alive and thriving!
The first time I recall hearing SW sing was as a kid. He was around the same age 12, or 13 singing 🎵 “It’s finger popping time”. The fact that his voice is still strong, and wonderful as ever, is amazing. If my calculations are correct, he’s about 74 yrs old. Simply incredible. ❤ him.
He will be 74 on his birthday. Reason I know he is one year younger than I and I met him after a concert. We just waited on our elders to come back after their flirting with each other. I was 12 he was 11 years old. I just love telling this story. ❤
I was there at that concert and it was hilarious.... What a phenomenal experience. Stevie is such a mega talent and such a beautiful human being.
Love, love, love this multitalented, beautiful human being. My entire life has been filled with joy because of his incredible music. I pray he has many more years to bless us with his joyous GOD blessed gift.
This Man is a straight up National Treaure!!
That's what, or should I say who, I Call a MUSCIAN!He trully is a man of music,who can equal with Him today? Unbeatable! RESPECT!
Stevie is so wonder. His daughter is so beautiful 😅❤
My first was a girl we named Syreeta (like Syreeta Wright). Her father announced to his parents her arrival by playing this song!❤️
Stevie "that was lovely, "so Is your daughter. "Thanks for that exact sound, "that "continues to take us back "Pop.pop! "God Bless you and yours, "Amen!
Pure joy. I remember dancing in my living room with my stereo cranked up, in bliss.
I had a doula when my daughter was born and I requested this song to be played after I delivered.
This is a a genius that produced masterpieces throughout his life. That song came out around the time when my son was born and it brings back wonderful memories!!
Thank you Stevie for all the beautiful songs…I grew up with❣️
my neice...only neice was born when this song by dear Stevie came out. she is in her forties now and I gave her a glass box from Tiffany that was engraved "isn't she lovely" she knows that is and always will be our song love you Stevie for giving us so much joy
Wonderful music made from Love! A legend, Stevie Wonder! Beautiful Aisha! 🙏❤🙏❤🙏
I went to college with Aisha (nicknamed Barbie at the time). She’s as sweet inside as she is beautiful outside. Glad to see she’s doing well! 🤗
I love you Stevie! 😍 You are a blessing to us! God bless you forever and always, dearest and most beautiful songbird! ❤
Still sings the same !! Made my day thank you remembering this song.
I was just thinking the other day how I would love to see Stevie Wonder in Concert again!He is a musical Genius and a whole Vibe!I loveeeeee Stevie Wonder.
Genius. Period
I was a young married mother when that song came out. It is still my favorite! Syretta had a voice like an angel. Aisha is beautiful!!
Wow,still great young voice,Stevie Wonder truly a legend!
I love Stevie wonder, he has voice that's out of this world 🌎
Awesome...one of the greatest vocalist of all time..❤❤🇯🇲
Stevie WONDER FUL🎉
I love him playing the harmonica!🎉 Aisha is gorgeous! ❤
I think it was said at the time that she was the youngest person to appear on a top 40 record. The sound of her crying.
Just GREAT!!
But the baby crying in the beginning of the song is actually ANOTHER baby , that Stevie knew at the time ,( he knew the MOTHER of that baby) - and he was given permission to use that sound that is actually from the direct moment when that baby was being born!
He said that in an interview that I read.
Later in the song it is Aisha , his daughter that is in the bath!❤
@@marianystrom7570 Thanks for sharing that information.
Time stood still for Stevie on this one. He sounds great and his clavinet skills are only better! And, yes, his daughter is very lovely.
Not sure when song was made, but my parents were huge fans of Stevie Wonder. I'm an 80's baby & was hearing this song until I left to go off to college 😂.
I so love his humour. He is simply the best.
I saw him live in a park performing when he was 12 and I was 10 years old,in DC!
He looks wonderful 😍 ❤❤!!!! Beautiful daughter ❤❤❤
voice still as strong as ever, such a gift to the world
This was my oldest daughter favorite song . She was 6 months old when it came out. She would twist her little body after the part 'made from love'. She had the biggest grin on her little face. She passed away 6 months ago. Her name was LaTosha. I cry every time I hear this song. 😭
Very Sorry for your loss.
Wishing you peace 🙏🏾
May the perfect love of Jesus bind your broken heart. In His Mighty Name, I pray. AMEN🕊
😢 Praying 🙏🏽 for you.
I know youll never get over it. But at least maybe this song brings some comfort
Love Stevie so much!! What a great talent and man. This is one of my favorites but there are so so many!
He sounds great!!! Love that song , it really is such a great song for his beautiful daughter. God is good 💗💕
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SONG. I'M SO PROUD OF THEM BOTH.
Time sure does fly! And I knew he was gonna sang , Isn’t He Uglyyyy and the crazy part of it , it would have been a hit! Peace!
I love Stevie my first child and Aisha was born around the same time,people can say what they want that baby grounded me and my shining black knight together and we are still going strong 50 years later.My daughter gave us our first grandson and my husband is papa,black love ,black family.Please work to preserve the black family .
Stevie voice is still Magnificent blessings and love to you Mr Wonder🤲🏾💙
Brings back precious memories of our beloved Grandmother on her 95th birthday 😢
I remember the songs in the key of life.
That was his daughter. When she was born in the eighties, how well do I remember that.
She's become a beautiful woman.
She wasn't born in the 80's. She was born in 1975. The album "Songs in the Key of Life" was released in 1976.🤗
Soooo happy we were able to see Stevie in chi-town twice at the United Center. Both concerts were wonderful and we had so much fun with the fans in front of us; all dressed to the 'nines' just for Stevie! We were all singing & dancing the whole time. Never sat down! Love this musician & his music!!❤
That was so beautiful to watch. ❤
❤ beautiful daughter
STEVIE , ne perds pas la qualité de sa vois malgré les années ! c'est surprenant ...toujours les mêmes tonalités !.. chapeau...et quelques kl en moins ....
His voice is still so young!! And pure!!!!
Bravo Stevie, Aishwarya his wonderful band!!!!!!
Wow him and the band still sound great
My mom had this album in wax and always sang it to me when I was little like his baby girl in 1977 :)
I'm crying right now.
WE LOVE YOU STEVLAND MORRIS!
Yes sir that is his daughter I remember in about 1976-77 when he put out Songs in the Key of Life, he had 45 record with that song. And yes years later to see her on stage in his band with second child? Simply Phenomenal that his sees so well even without sight the beauty of the world with amazing descriptions of life as it should be? Loving everyday a true legend for decades, sing, play that harmonica, key board, synthesizer? Check out his dedicated song to Bill Withers.. Thanks to all the great contribution especially Songs in the Key of Life and Happy Birthday… LB Boomer Sooner March 14, 2024 3:32am Thursday morning.
That's Shelea. One of the best singers in the industry.
I dedicated this song to my lovely daughter Angela when she was born in June 1971 and I'm going to send her this video. Thank you so much for posting. I finally got to see Stevie's lovely Aisha made from love. Thank You, God ❤
Wow, a whole orchestra 🩵
I Love ❤️ STEVIE WONDER always have 🤗🥰
My first born was a girl. I always thought that before the doctor said, "It's a girl!", the song would be played in the ER. Then I wondered what song could be played for a boy. A hospital, near my town, rings a bell so softly over the PA system to let us know a baby has arrived.
She is beautiful 🌹🌹🌹
I saw him in person when he was Little Stevie Wonder! And I was little too!😅
Aishah and i are the same age. This song was one of the first songs i ever heard as a baby
Love this song❤
El Maestro Wonder es un Monumento al Arte.
Que hermosa canción y la voz sigue intacta
She's lovely
Wonderful song😊
May Papa God continue to bless you and family. Amen!
👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤ She is lovely.
Who’s cutting onions. Awwww
The lady in the video is not his daughter Aisha. She is Shelea, an extraordinary singer who was Stevie's background vocals for several time.
The Music Messiah
Stevie ❤❤❤
Her, song. Again and again always again.
I love Steve Wonder!❤
Stevie...sometimes you get the feeling that someone is more advanced than the rest or us!
Ohh I remember this song so well. Wonderful memories. Stevie still sounds the same.🥰🥰🥰🥰
Great song♥️♥️♥️
Stevei the best 👌 👍
Made my day 😊
Good dad.
So beautiful ❤
