The whole purpose of an artist covering someone else's music is to put their spin on it otherwise you can just listen to the original artist's recording. He was part of a tribute and did a good job. In person he's even better with an amazing tone. He doesn't need to be compared to Stevie as no one is like him and he wasn't trying to be like him. I enjoyed it.
That was unreal. ......I can't believe this was the first time I've seen this. ....WOWWWWWWW.......I already have mad love for Maxwell. .....this just made me realllllllllyyyyyyyyy want him even MORRREEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😊😊☺☺☺☺☺
This was the moment I fell head over heels in love with Maxwell, he took Stevie’s jam and made it his total and only his. I still loose my breath hearing this
Greg Brown i was about to write the same thing Man . When one's got a nice voice There's no need for overact no? i'll wait for this fashion to fade away. Till then i've votre the 70' Sound in my ears
It is funny that this has more views than several of Stevie Wonder's. Really people, I'm flabbergasted. It does not get nothing closer to what SW, makes me feel when I hear this version. And no disrespect to this singer, however; i don't feel the soul when he sings it.
cool63 ...Some young people don't know the master piece of Stevie Wonder...Some young people only listen to up to date artist...MR.STEVIE WONDER IS A MASTER..
He could have did better Maxwell was off alot. Everybody can't do another artist song but, at the end of the video I STILL love me some MAXWELL!!!!!!!!
Big maxwell fan, but have to agree with the two comments before me. This was not very good. This is supposed to be smooth like easy spread butter. This was rough like cornmeal on,burnt fried catfish
se non hai la voce perchè vuoi cantare cose troppo difficili per te......fallo sotto la doccia ma non farti vedere in giro....neanche ad Amici di Maria de Filippi ti prenderebbero !!
I don't agree with you. Maxwell is good, very good but let's face it it's a hard song to sing and nobody can sing it like Stevie so Maxwell has to make allowances, hence the 'extras' as you say. It's not disrespect, it just shows that this is a hard song to sing, especially in under 2 min.. and if you search on youtube for 'Rocket love cover' you will see that no one famous has risked covering it..
+Phil Moncel I though it was only me that noticed but listening to the song made me realize it is difficult to sing. Same with "All I do" Now THAT would be a difficult song to cover
This comment showed how you never heard of Maxwell's and how ignorant you are. He didn't put "extras" - it's just his style and signature of singing. The fact that he sang the song like his own is a plus point, that he didn't "impersonate" Stevie.

Perfect cover! Maxwell is too smooth! Straight dope!
One of my favorites by Stevie....and Maxwell did his thing on it. I like it!
I LOVE MAXWELLS VERSION OF ROCKET LOVE!! AND I DON'T WANT HIM TO SOUND LIKE STEVIE I LOVE THEM BOTH....OK
This was the moment I fell head over heels in love with Maxwell, he took Stevie’s jam and made it his total and only his. I still loose my breath hearing this
One of my favorite artists singing one of my favorite songs! ❤️
Max ain't no joke but ...You don't play around with a golden classic like this sun!!!!!

Greg Brown i was about to write the same thing Man . When one's got a nice voice There's no need for overact no? i'll wait for this fashion to fade away. Till then i've votre the 70' Sound in my ears
Maxwell was amazing. What were you guys listening to? How can you critique his performance?
holy words
That’s a bad dude
I miss his hair to but now he's getting his grown man on and I'm feeling that too!
He should cover Wonder's material. Macy Gray did an excellent job.
THAT HAIR!
No comparison to Stevie's version. He doesn't have the intensity. Stevie drives it through the atmospher like a rocket.
quite possibly the sexiest thing I've ever seen... mmmm

They should've had Milira Jones sing her version ....
that hair just added the sex appeal i had to come back
mysticgatherings , it sounds like you are hating lol... his voice is great ..
*sigh*
Just...
*sigh*
Cant hear it
Did he forget the lyrics or something? He was off to a great start but why this teaser performance?
He could have did better Maxwell was off alot. Everybody can't do another artist song but, at the end of the video I STILL love me some MAXWELL!!!!!!!!
I don't know what you're talking about. He sounded good and should have remade this song.
Big maxwell fan, but have to agree with the two comments before me. This was not very good. This is supposed to be smooth like easy spread butter. This was rough like cornmeal on,burnt fried catfish
CORNMEAL ON BURNT CATFISH 😂😂😂
He is so delicious
this version is ok, not even close to Stevie though.
Nobody asked you cornball
maxwell pulls women, shit
Nah, he did too much. Nothing like the original
se non hai la voce perchè vuoi cantare cose troppo difficili per te......fallo sotto la doccia ma non farti vedere in giro....neanche ad Amici di Maria de Filippi ti prenderebbero !!
blah. If he would just concentrate on singing the damn song and getting the lyrics right maybe it would be aight.
Totally destroyed a classic.. why mofos gotta put 'extras' on it all the time?
You obviously don't know what you're talking about.
I don't agree with you. Maxwell is good, very good but let's face it it's a hard song to sing and nobody can sing it like Stevie so Maxwell has to make allowances, hence the 'extras' as you say.

+Greg Brown I KNOW YOU PLAYING! THIS WAS A TRIBUTE NOT A WHOLE SONG BOO.. MAX KILLED IT..ANYWAY............
+Phil Moncel I though it was only me that noticed but listening to the song made me realize it is difficult to sing. Same with "All I do" Now THAT would be a difficult song to cover

I like Maxwell's music but he really ruined this song. Nope 👎🏾. Sorry Maxie poo.
Another pretender butchers a stevie wonder song...
This is awful
holy words
