Stevie Wonder ~ For Once In My Life 1968 Soul Purrfection Version
Вставка

- "For Once In My Life" was written by Ron Miller and Orlando Murden for Motown and first recorded in 1965. It was performed as a ballad but it was not until Tony Bennett recorded it in 1967 that it first appeared on the Hot100 peaking at #91.
A year later a wide swath of artists had covered it, but no one did it better than Stevie Wonder whose version was the bigger hit peaking at #2 for two weeks behind Marvin Gaye's "I Heard It Through The Grapevine". The same week Stevie released his version, Jackie Wilson released his debuting one notch below Stevie's version which entered the chart at #80. Wilson's version peaked at #70.
Motown ruled the charts holding down the top three positions on the Hot100 the third single being the Temptations & Supremes duet of "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" until the week of December 28, when the label held down the five of the top 10 which was rounded out by "Love Child" and "Cloud Nine".
Stevie was not happy about having the Motown machine foist their choices on him, but he still performed admirably. He was waiting for the day he would be allowed to write and produce his own songs which did not happen until 1973 with "Innervisions".
Musical genius.
Absolute 💚
When it seemed like the world was going to hell in a hand basket in 1968 (what with the war in Vietnam and the assassinations of both Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King and “hell no we won’t go”, along comes this song that had happiness in the grooves and the singer was Stevie Wonder. Given that there is a lot of garbage these days and it seems like this world is going to hell in a hand basket, along comes this superlative remix, and it’s done by a genius of sound, and his name is DiscoCat. Thank you for getting my Monday started. Stevie Wonder would be proud.
Also, many performers and musicians do not look or behave as attractive as they want to be treated.

This song by Stevie Wonder always reminds me of summer. It was our go to song when we were kids. Even at a young age, we were already getting into the latest music. I can see my classmates listening to this song on their transistor radios lol. Wow, haven't thought about that in a while. Nice childhood memory for sure! 😆🙂😊🧑🤝🧑👭

I wish the original recording of this song was this edition. It could never be imitated, nor ever improved. In fact, I was a freshman in high school while this song was played.
Beautiful Song & Quality 👌👌👌🌹🌹🌹

Excellent job boss!
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once, unafraid, I can go where life leads me
Somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Ooh, someone warm like you
Would make my dreams come true
Yeah, yeah, yeah (For once in my life)
For once in my life, I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before (Not like it's hurt me before)
For once, I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore (I'm not alone anymore)
For once I can say, "This is mine, you can't take it"
As long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me
(Someone who needs me)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah
(Someone who needs me)
Oh, I'm in love, baby
For once in my life (For once in my life)
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before (Not like it's hurt me before)
For once, I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore (I'm not alone anymore)
For once I can say, "This is mine, you can't take it"
As long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me
(Someone who needs me)
Oh, for once in my life
(Someone who needs me)
Yeah, somebody that needs me
(Someone who needs me)
Oh, baby, for once in my life
Excelente
Love it! 😍
Best music
One word mint
I cannot get enough of this version!!! It is so totally cool!! :) I keep it on Loop for hours!! And I am sure my neighbors are happy to hear it all day, too :) Thank You !!!
I like this edition better than the album cut, let alone the 7" single.
Excellent long version..
I believe Stevie was able to write and produce himself on Music Of My Mind, which came out before Innervisions. Maybe he has help with the production, but that was when he was able to write and also when he became interested in synthesizers. Superwoman is the song that comes to mind.
Your comment is a nice fact for us to know and study.

I could have sworn I had already heard your take on this classic. Is this a new mix or a re-publish of an old mix? Either way it is great
😎👍
いかにも彼らしい清楚なイメージのナンバーで、グラディスナイト&ピップスもカバーしたナンバーだ。

The quickest way to lose a subscriber (ME) is to duplicate downloads. We follow you for NEW content (always good!) but wasting my time downloading something I already had by you is a severe NO-NO!
Then, shut the door on your way out.
Bye!!
