Stevie Wonder- That Girl

She doesnt use her love to make him weak... She uses love to keep him strong

This song is KING! The production (bass synthesizer, harmonica work, finger snaps, and that classic drum work) is just true Stevie...music

I wonder why he never does "Love Light In Flight" anymore? I've heard people ask him to play it for them and he says "no" really quickly.

That is something that I notice as well. "Love Light In Flight" is one of the his many 80s cuts that have aged better than most.

He has done "That Girl" in recent times. I want to say he sang it with Usher or Trey Songz at some award show. When he had his radio show, he played it on there also.

He shot videos for "Do I Do" and "Ribbon and The Sky", but not for "That Girl" and "Front Line", the other new song on the Stevie Wonder's Original Musiquarium I compliation. That's something I found disappointing.

Well, videos weren't that popular back then. Besides, as bad as the "Ribbon In The Sky" and "Do I Do" videos were, I can do without them. lol

Yeah, they were of the low-budget variety and corny. But "That Girl" would've have been just right! I wanna believe it.

"Do I Do" was random though. It was humorous seeing Stevie in a disco one minute, jamming with the band the next, and then in "Africa" around some "honeys". lol


That's probably how Motown treated videos back then (like most labels did at the time pre-youknowwho lol). lol
