They certainly are... but I'd take, say, "I Believe (When I Fall in Love It Will Be Forever)" over all of them. It's even more brilliant!

I don't know if I could choose!!!!!

I'm just going to list some of my favorites

As
All I Do
Creepin'
Lately
Jesus Children of America
Superwoman (Where Were You When I Needed You)
Master Blaster (Jammin')

Don't You Worry 'bout a Thing


There are so many Stevie songs that I love. I can't pick one

Ribbon In The Sky.....the reason why.....listen to it.

SquirrelMeat said:

From the greatest album ever in the history of recorded music.
"Songs In The Key Of Life"

"Always".....because it allows me to go to Church (emotionally)
"Creepin"....Often imitated, never duplicated.....my kind of Synths.

IamtheDJ said:

I get chills when I hear this song...those lyrics are so brutally honest and genuine!!

Abdul said:

the full-length album version is amazing! Stevie does a funny rap near the end...it's classic

and if you don't like the groove,you can turn this record off
it won't cost you nothin' but a penney,then you'll have a cough

I don't know how this song wasn't mentioned:

"Seems So Long"... the lyrics so simple but I just love the serene quality of the keyboards and synths and the drums making it a jazzy vibe plus Stevie kills it at the end.

"Maybe Your Baby", I always considered to be his baddest funk song, followed by "Jesus Children of America", "Living for the City", "Boogie on Reggae Woman" and "Do I Do".

I also love his instrumental "Contusion" from "Songs..."

And "Ordinary Pain"... I can't decide which side I love first, Stevie's or Kimberly Brewer's? Hmm, I'm gonna have to go with the Chaka-inspired second half. A shame Chaka never got the chance to actually do it herself because of scheduling conflicts.

And yeah "Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing" knocks!

SoulAlive said:

LOL, then Stevie couldn't figure out what to say next:
I know I cannot rhyme but blah-blah-blah...

And I think he scatted and then out of the blue in his other voice said "Earl's playing by himself"... I guess he was running out of things to do on the record. And that was like ten minutes and a half!

Timmy84 said:

Yeah,Stevie was clearly ad-libbing and making it up as he went along It's really spontaneous and alot of fun.He's got a great sense of humor.

Timmy84 said:

Wow,I didn't know that Chaka was supposed to sing that part.That would have taken the song to a whole new level! Kimberly does a good job,though.

I just called to say i love you. a lot of people want to know why thats my favorite song. its because it was the first one i ever heard, in the late 80s.

superman said:

Are you familiar with his 70s music?

SoulAlive said:

OK Superman you obviously need some help. If you're an album kinda person then you absolutely need all of Stevie's albums from Music of my Mind to Hotter than July.
If not then At the close of the century Box Set is what you need.

superman said:

First song you heard when you arrived from Krypton?

SoulAlive said:

Which album was it on? The only version I have is on a Best Of album (and yes, I do have other Stevie Wonder albums, so don't flame me)

Heaven is 10 zillion lightyears away.

"Stevie Wonder's Original Musiquarium I" (1982).

"My Eyes Don't Cry", probably becuase it is still a favorite around Detroit. They used to play it on all the station on Fridays.

However, my favorite intro of all time (ever, not just Stevie) is "Boogie On Reggae Woman". I don't know what kind of keyboard or bass or whatever Stevie used to make that first noise, but it is so funky!

Very hard to pick to just one song of his but i'd have to say my fave is "Lately". I listen to it more than any of his other songs and I've always loved it. That song is perfection IMO.

Theres a cool live version that Stevie does on youtube- much more funkier than the album version

Has anyone heard the remake that Stevie did of "Stubborn Kind of Fellow" which was originally done by Marvin Gaye? Its awesome.

This wasn't easy, but I'll go with "Happier than the morning sun" followed closely by Superwoman, Always, Saturn, and Bird of Beauty. Hell, I could throw about 10 others on here.

I Believe When I Fall In Love It Will Be Forever

Yeah, it's not his best song, but it was the first Stevie's song I ever listened and I was automatically hooked,,, ahhh....great memories...

Site crashed, so I'll have to try again.

Thanks for information about Do I Do, SoulAlive and Timmy84. IMHO Stevie Wonder has only done one bad song, Ebony and Ivory, but I blame the plodding beat and nursery rhyme lyrics on Paul Macartney.

Stevie is such a good soul that he was probably happy to do a song that promoted racial tolerance.

Theres A Place In The Sun,
thats my favorite just now dunno why? I just like it!


(planet earth is my album of the moment wrong thred i know but )
