Stevie's overlooked masterpiece revealed!!! sorry..
http://www.youtube.com/wa...N_CIn7Z8rk . Written by Stevie Wonder Music by Lyrics by Date 1972 Source Sesame Street Publisher Earliest Known Appearance: Episode 0514"123 Sesame Street" was written and performed by Stevie Wonder for his appearance on Episode 0514 of Sesame Street. The song was later used as an insert in other episodes, including Episodes 0536 and 0560. When Episode 0536 was released on Old School: Volume 1, "123 Sesame Street" was cut because of rights issues. However, it can be viewed at sesamestreet.org. Donny Osmond identified this as his favorite Sesame Street moment. During the same taping session, Wonder and his band performed “Superstition” and Grover visited him. [Edited 2/2/09 16:03pm] [Edited 2/2/09 18:46pm] | |

Overlooked, you say? I saw this on YouTube like two years ago. 
One of the best moments on "Sesame Street" besides the Pointer Sisters singing: "One-two-three-FOUR-FIVE-six-seven-eight-NINE-TEN-eleven-twelve!" | |

Roger Troutman, the great funk talk box genius of the eighties said he was inspired to use the talk box as a trademark instrument after seeing Stevie perform it on Sesame Street.  No way it's "overlooked" unless they CHOOSE to overlook it or are surprised when you mention it as if they don't know what you're talking about. | |

The typo in the topic desperately needs editing.
Did you mean it was "reviled" meaning abhorred and hated or "revealed" meaning no longer hidden ? test | |
