Goooooodness gracious that was SUCH a fun song!! What a better way to race into the weekend dancing! How's my selfie game?! I think we've got Sir Duke coming up here soon!! See you there!
Andy & Alex
Young Stevie Wonder (1969)
opens the recent Oscar winning
" Summer of Soul" !! Patreon called, they want this film watched !!!!!!!! 🔥
You should listen to one or two of his Seventies albums in full. Maybe Innvervisions. Or Songs in the Key of Life. The guy has a hundred songs that are worth your time.
Also off the same album as Sir Duke, I Wish, As, and/or Isn't She Lovely.
A&A Please repost
Curtis Mayfiield-- Move on Up
Follow up - " Superfly " (73) 🔥
Groundbreaking masterpiece, both the track and full album - S - Tier !!
Can’t go wrong with Innervisions… Two favorite tracks you haven’t done yet are “Visions” and “Jesus Children of America”
Stevie Wonder, like Elton John is just one of those musical geniuses that just cannot be denied no matter what genre you prefer.
Agreed however much I love Elton
Stevie Wonder is better producer songwriter
@@watermarginramsgate180 Yeah there isnt really a comparison especially when Bernie Taupin wrote most of his songs. Stevie had writers as well but he also wrote alot of his own songs
Stevie Wonder was a musical force of nature. This song was the title track from his 12th studio album, released in 1970 at the ripe old age of 20. He went on to dominate the 70s, winning the grammy for album of the year in 74, 75 and 77. In his grammy acceptance speech for album of the year in 76, Paul Simon quipped, "I'd really like to thank Stevie Wonder for not releasing an album this year."
OMG, is this that old? Geez. The career and staying power the man had is amazing.
Stevie didn't die die he? Lots of past tense stuff here.
I remember the Paul Simon remark. I was watching the grammys in college and we thought that was classic!
If you watched the Grammys in the '70s you saw Stevie win a ton of awards.
@@rpc717 Sure did and well deserved!
Stevie is easily among the top ten artists in the history of pop music.
I make it a lot simpler. There have been only three active prolific geniuses in pop music in the last 50 years (since 1970). Paul McCartney defaults into this category because there was just enough Beatle juice left in him at the beginning of the period. The second is Prince because, well, he was Prince. But by far, the most talented musician in this period, making consistently brilliant music, was Mr. Stevland H. Morris. A Wonder with capital letters indeed.
@@Azabaxe80 No argument here.
@@Azabaxe80 I'd swap out Paul for Joni Mitchell, if only because her peak was the 70s.
@@Azabaxe80 Paul Simon belongs in that upper echelon as well. For every decade since the 1960s, he's successfully cranked out brilliant sonic landscapes.
@@jasonremy1627 You may have a case there. The quality of her music was certainly superior.
I was a wedding DJ for 20 years. Didn't matter the crowd size, age or ethnicity. This one packed the floor EVERY TIME.
Stevie's album "Innervisions" he played almost every instrument himself on every song. Musical genius - I have mad respect for him.
My favorite Stevie album!
@@spicy321 I've listened to that album a 1000 times, never gets old
lol Wish I'd scrolled down to see your post! ditto! ;)
This needs to be on the album reaction list. Every song is amazing, but listening to them all in one go is transcendent.
He also played every instrument on his first album at 13 yrs old song was Fingertips
Stevie is in the “we’re not worthy” category…🔥🔥
That opening scream is to wake you up to the perfection of this song!
"I Was Made To Love Her" is around '67 Stevie and has a similiar feel as this one..
yes...
One of my absolute favorites!
Definitely!!
The one where he was born in Little Rock and had a childhood sweetheart.
This song is wonderful. I don't know if you're aware of it, but the Beach Boys also did a version of this song on their album Rarities. It is worth checking out.
His backing singers really do it for me (along with the horns). They're worth mentioning - Lynda Tucker Laurence, Syreeta Wright and Venetta Fields. I sometimes think backing singers don't get enough credit for what they bring to a song.
Syreeta Wright co-wrote this song with Stevie, Lee Garrett and Lula Mae Hardaway. She co-wrote 19 songs with just Stevie, including "If You Really Love Me" and "Never Dreamed You'd Leave in Summer". She was also Stevie's wife from 1970-1972
Absolutely, some of the finest in the business. They really add so much energy to the song.
Agreed! Cheers ✌💋
@jeffmorse645: I completely agree with you. Stevie and Aretha Franklin had the best back up singers. 👍
Who doesn’t LOVE Stevie. There is a great song he wrote for Aretha Franklin Until You Come Back To Me that she turned into a hit. He was 14 when he wrote it. That’s Stevie. His album Songs In The Key of Life is legendary and for which he won several Grammys. Thanks for the great reaction. 👏👏😊
The motown rabbit hole is so deep you may never make it back out
A musical genius for sure. Was born to do what he does. Back in the 70's he was in a league all his own.
"Isn't she lovely" - the extended album version from: "Songs in the Key of Life"
The whole album songs in the key of life. Remember, he did most of the instrumentation on that album. Playing drums while being blind can't be easy, yet there's video of it.
A great album to hit on Patreon
That's about his first child being born.
Wonder plays and does everything to perfection. He is an amazing drummer and keyboardist. His early records are simply unassailable.
He plays 8 instruments really well
I just gotta say .. I absolutely LOVE when you guys react to the Motown sound. Your joy is so natural and authentic and Stevie is absolutely the best of the best
Nobody better, singing, playing or writing. A true WONDER.
Many thanks for this. 1965's 'Uptight (Everything's Alright)' has got to be next - the song that saved his Motown contract after his voice broke!
Yes, I fully agree. To me, that’s his second best song, which is really saying something. Those horns…
"I'd like to thank Stevie Wonder who didn't make an album this year" - Paul Simon winning Album Of The Year in 1976
I hope he was kidding when he said that !
This is an all-timer, gotta be A+ or S. Stevie is a goldmine. Older ones like his version of “We Can Work It Out” or “Uptight”, or 70s like “Superstition” or “You Haven’t Done Nothing”. So many to enjoy, have a great Friday!!
Superstition is phenomenal
I love "Superstition".
Superstition!
They reacted to "Superstition" in a livestream, and liked it so much that they later cut and pasted it from the livestream as a stand-alone reaction.
Every Stevie reaction that they've done thus far ("Superstition", "Higher Ground", "Living For the City", and now "Signed, Sealed, Delivered") has produced nothing but raves from Andy & Alex ... as well they should.
I daresay that if A&A had to rank their top five artists that they've discovered through this channel, Stevie Wonder would be among them.
@@gregsager2062 definitely in the upper top of top 5!
'I Was Made To Love Her' soon please. I think he was still Little Stevie Wonder when that came out. And 'Yesterme, Yesteryou, Yesterday' is pretty damn amazing and should be played far more often than it is. X
Yaaaaasssss!!
For once in my life I agree…!
YES
Agreed. Some of James Jamerson’s best bass work on I was made to love her is amazing.
Stevie! One of the greatest of all time. He is incredible!
A Big S tier for Little Stevie. Everything about it is amazing. Love the bass line, and his vocals are awesome. Can't wait for you to hear "Sir Duke".
Stevie lives in the S tier, ha ha.
@@christinegilbert1078 You know it!
I was a kid when i first heard Sir Duke. I STILL recall EXACTLY where i was when i first heard it. I was captivated!
This was at the beginning of a decade in which Stevie dominated every award show. Some , if not most of his best music came out of this decade. You could literally avoid the hits and just play deep cuts and still hear fantastic music
I forget the year, 76 or 77, Paul Simon won the Grammy for album of the year “ I would like to thank Stevie Wonder for not releasing any music this year”
When Paul Simon won the next year, he thanked, "Stevie Wonder, for not cutting an album this year."
Glad you guys rated this as an "easy S." "Sir Duke" will be S+. So glad it's already on the calendar!
Yes, bring on Sir Duke!
Frampton had a cover of this that did fairly well in 1977. But, Stevie cannot be replicated.
'' if you really love me '' is brilliant, so many tempo changes, you two would love it ❤❤❤
A & A: I believe this is your 4th RUclips Stevie Woner reaction. Next has to be "Sir Duke," Stevie's brilliant song about one of his musical idols, Duke Ellington. If you haven't heard it, the horn section riff is an amazing hook-filled feature of the song; still spine tingling to me after 46 years. From Stevie's magnum opus album, "Songs in the Key of Life." from 1977.
@John Hughes I wholeheartedly agree 1,000 percent. "Sir Duke" is brilliant (and also my favorite SW song). It must be next.
and followed by "I Wish" for more horns!!
Pastime paradise and loves in need of love are two more great ones on that album
SIR DUKE!!!!! YES 🥰🥰🥰🎶🎶🎶‼️
Personally, I hate the song. Every time you turned on the radio in the summer of ‘77 it was playing. Total song burnout, it just got whiny. Sorry, but yuck.
Wishing everyone in the A&A family a happy and safe 4th of July weekend. Stay safe and loving through good music. Stevie is a great way to start!!. I can't add much more to what's already been said. Stevie sings for himself. lol.. S for sure. Keep rocking guys. It makes us happy 🤗😊🎵🎶
Happy 4th to you and your family, @Aileen Turrietta!
@@allisonreed7682 Thank you Allison. Same to you and your family. 😊🤗
Amen!
When I was a young kid in the 60’s listening to AM radio in the car with my Dad, these are the Stevie Wonder songs I loved to hear…Both are kicky little songs.
Uptight (Everything is Alright)
I Was Made to Love Her
Just one of the top 3 greatest artists of all time. Totally unique. Please do "As" from Songs in the Key of Life
Yes!! His song AS is such a great uplifting song. It’s a song many people might not recognize by the name but most will recognize it once they hear it
Musical genius. Literally hard to recommend anything from someone so prolific over so many years. In 1966 Stevie did a soulful take on Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind". It was on the B side of one of his bigger hit 45s. But it was always my favorite version of the song. Check it out sometime.
In 1969 Michael Henderson was a 19 year old bass player in Stevie Wonder's band. Miles Davis heard him at a show and went backstage and told Wonder "I'm taking your bass player." A few weeks later Henderson was in the studio with Miles and no safety net. Come on guys, do some Miles! Out of the comfort zone!!!!!
Definitely don't miss the best lp from him,for many from his best era "Innervisions". Absolutely sublime and as influential as it gets for many artists.
Stevie is a force of nature. When he first started out he was called "Little Stevie Wonder" & of particular interest the first time I ever heard of him was when he performed in the Beach Party movies (like Beach Blanket Bingo) in the early 60`s. I am not sure if he had an album out before that or if those movies were the launching point for his career but he was for sure the best part of those movies & as mentioned the first time I ever heard him.
Yes!
Finger Tips Part Two by Little Stevie Wonder!!!!
Harmonica Man by little Stevie Wonder is a the best way to start your SW journey.
I would still love to see another Motown Live Stream. There are SO many great songs to hear that it will take you forever unless you just a couple of hours to run through a bunch. PLEASE
Excuse me for being 'that jerk', but while Motown was a major player, the stream was about R&B and Soul, and there's much more than just Motown. Stax and Philadelphia International in particular are super important.
YES, he says with his best Stevie Wonder scream.
@@scottboswell6406 agree…I stand corrected. I meant to mention Stax actually….
I wonder if we could get a Songs in the Key of Life full album runthrough in the future. I'd imagine a lot of people's favorite Stevie song(s) come off that. Another Star is my personal favorite if anyone was wondering.
Hopefully they eventually hit all his classic period albums
Mr. Wonder you are a wonder! Had all your music back in the 80's. Living for the City, Superstition, Master Blaster too! OMG.
I'm gonna keep pushing that Deep Cut of Stevie's, Ordinary Pain
Ordinary Pain is great. That album is off the charts
Ordinary Pain is extraordinary!
The bass was the late, great Bob Babbit. The fill he does leading into the second chorus is just glorious.
Any other studio, he'd have been the main man, but he was fated to live in the shadow of his friend, James Jamerson.
Really nice bloke too, from all the interviews I've seen with him.
You did your research! I would have thought it was James Jamerson especially since he’s playing in that style. But yes, Bob Babbit gets the credit for this one. What a bass line it is. Killer!!
Babbitt's Resume
Signed, Sealed Delivered- Stevie
Just My Imagination, Ball of Confusion - Temptations
Mercy, mercy me and inner-city blues - Marvin
War - Edwin Star
Midnight Train to Georgia - Gladys Knight and Pips (try and find a better song defining bass line)
Rubberband Man - Spinners
Angel from Montgomery - Bonnie Raitt
@@stephenhanson3647 what a resumé!! All among my favorites.
It would be nice if you could react to Stevie's "Yester-me, Yester-you, Yesterday". Most of his songs tend to be uproariously catchy or sugary sweet ballads.
This song, I feel, demonstrates that he could do mid-tempo songs as well. It's got a superb melody and Stevie's vocal delivery just squeezes emotion out of it.
@Space Cat I love that one too. I was around 9 ish I think. On the radio constantly. Our radio was never off because we didn't have a tv, and it only had 2 channels in b/w so we didn't miss much. Lady upstairs had a tv but mostly we listened to music. Sometimes coming from a ship called Radio Caroline, out in the North Sea. Under the covers for crackly 208 in Belgium too.
A&A - This is how good we had it back in August 1970 - Songs in the top 10 for the month - Signed, Sealed, Delivered, Spill the Wine, Mama Told me Not to Come, War, 25 or 6 to 4. Oher songs playing on the radio at that time - Mississippi Queen, Ohio, Ride Captain Ride, Lookin' Out My Back Door, Closer To Home, All Right Now. Here is what you guys are missing from August 1970 - Ball of Confusion (Temptations), Summertime Blues (The Who), I Want to Take You Higher (Sly and the Family Stone). Keep up the reactions!
Lennon captured his breaths in the vocal in a similar way on "Girl," from Rubber Soul. In that case, George Martin turned the gain on Lennon's mic up quite a bit to get the effect, so maybe Wonder did the same thing here.
True
Exactly
Stevie is a musical genius, he owned the 1970's starting with this album. Thinks about this song versus Superstition, so different yet so awesome.
Now you know why we all love Stevie. 👍 Great reaction. Modern day Mozart
Stevie put more energy into that song than any one of us has in 10 years of hard labor.
At least you're getting back to talented musicians. Stevie is one of the greatest.
Stevie's composition is f****** impeccable. He's got so many incredible jams. Lots of people say lots of things about lots of goats. Stevie is legit GOAT status.
Dudes, the only thing better than this is watching a clip of Stevie doing this song live in the 70's. The groove just leaps into your eyes as well as your ears. Stellar! Too good. Just too good.
If Stevie sings it, I believe every word. It just comes from a genuine place. Hit up You Haven’t Done Nothing next.
Stevie Wonder is a musical genius
Little Stevie Wonder grew up to be one of the greatest artists to come out of Motown. A true innovator.
"Sir Duke" has to be next. That is unless you decide to do a whole-album reaction to "Songs in the Key of Life." I highly recommend the latter! It's not only a desert island album for me, it's THE ONE I would take if I could only choose one.
'has TO be next' Agreed!
🌅👍
@@surlechapeau thanks! I moved a little too quickly for my fingers! I corrected it! ☺
Hey @@Shadowrider1872! We made it to Friday! Have a wonderful weekend!
@@allisonreed7682 you're welcome!
If y’all wanna hear a bad-ass bass, listen to the extended version of “I Was Made to Love Her” by Stevie Wonder. It’s from way back but James Jamerson’s bass is off the hook. Stevie has such an excellent catalog from the very beginning of his career onward. He’s in a class by himself.
If you want a similar vibe to this, I suggest "Uptight (Everything's Alright)," "I Was Made to Love Her," and "For Once in My Life."
"My Cherie Amour" might be my favorite Stevie Wonder song.
My favorite too.
A&A and Lost in Vegas are really the only music reaction channels worth watching.
It's absurd that Lost in Vegas have over a million subscribers, while A&A are stuck in the 120k range.
Absurd. But we appreciate you, dudes.
Lost in Vegas were doing it longer is all.
A&A, you’ll love his “Sir Duke”, “Don't You Worry 'bout A Thing” and “My Cherie Amour” and dozens more!!!
edit- removed question about Living For The City
they heard it
@@SirDoofus2u thanks
Yes they heard the full version on a livestream
LOVE how the bass starts walking up in the chorus. I recommend Reflections by D & the Supremes.
Whether you review it or not, try "Don't you worry about a thing "- Stevie Wonder. On some of his 70's album cuts he also played most if not all the instruments!
Great opening line, “Like a fool, I went and stayed too long”
Stevie is indeed a wonder!
There is no mistaking a Stevie Wonder song! You just have to dance! Mercy mercy!!!!
Stevie like so many from the 70’s iconic, so many deep, real songs. Man was equivalent to say Elton, but his perspective was based from a completely different environment. What a talent.
Stevie"s original version is a Soul / R&B classic. There is also a great Rock-N-Roll version of this song by Peter Frampton featuring ripping guitar work and great backing vocals as well.
Stevie is the epitome of the Motown sound, Pure genius!
This song is such a party. First fast song I played at my wedding. 💖
Awesome
Just wait until you see the FOUR polls we built last night in a 2.5 hour marathon discord session......
You did a great job on today's poll. It's an S-tier poll.
Stevie awesome!!!
AND .... the backup chorus of singers...
soul delivered!!!
If you haven't checked out Questlove's documentary about the Summer of Soul music festival of 1969. You get to see Stevie playing drums. For several of his albums he'd record most of the parts. What an icon.
This is one of all time classic songs that still sounds fresh and it never gets old
Motown one of the best label of the 60's-70's. Thier stable of talent was unbeatable. Much of thier sound has to be attributed to the house band, the Funk Brothers. Great reaction as always.
Alex: You recently mentioned you generally don't like reggae music. I really think you'd like Stevie Wonder's reggae influenced song "Master Blaster (Jammin')," Stevie's ode to Bob Marley. It's as close as you may come to a reggae banger. It's from Stevie's 1980 album "Hotter Than July." Might be a good song for this month.
Yes! Master Blaster (Jammin')
Yes! The production on Master Blaster is as impeccable as the performance!
Or
Stevie song " Boogie on reggae woman"
Surprised to hear you don't like reggae, it is so funky
@@donnabruhn6907 He don't like reggae, he loves it!
You simply can't go wrong with "Little Stevie" Wonder, it's just not possible. He's a generational talent.
Ah yes. Little Stevie Wonder doing "Fingertips"
Looking forward to sir duke, wonders a legend ! JEFF BUCKLEY is another master of his voice, its time to hit his 93' release the GRACE album. For me hes the most distinguished vocalist because so much of what he does is on the moment. His live work is astonishing
I bought that album after reading about it in Rolling Stone and I was instantly in love with his voice. Great great artist.
Yeah. Stevie was another level. Royalty. Zero doubt.
Stevie Wonder is magic, instrumentally and vocally and his production is always the highest tier. I love this song, you just have to move when you hear it. Amazing, thank you for reacting to this one. A+ or S for me and I am leaning toward S before it even starts. Screw it, I am going S tier all the way. Motown at its very best. That bass is just ripping me up!!!
GOOOOOOOD MORNING A&A FAMILY!!!!
☮️💟♾️
SO glad to hear you are doing (did) Sir Duke! Please do "If It's Magic" after that.
What a wonderful, intelligent reaction!! And so much fun to watch the boys get surprised, and have fun along with the song!! A&A are unique among reaction videos in that they're able to have honest, genuine, reactions of enjoyment, just like non-musical ordinary folk, and then, they go ahead and discuss why the song works and pull it apart, like the musical pros that they are. Unique, that ability to enjoy music at two levels, with two separate sensibilities.
Love Stevie Wonder! He's literally a musical genius. This song is one of many etched in my mind, as it was on the radio a lot when I was a young'un. Listen a few more times and you will hear a lot more in it.
Stevie Wonder is a force of nature and frankly is to me the greatest musician of of the last 100 years. He can play like 20 instruments, speaks multiple languages, writes, produces, sings, won multiple albums of the year back to back. He's incredible, a literal savant. Asking me to pick my favorite Stevie song is like asking me to pick my favorite taco or something, there's no such thing.
Stevie Wonder IS the S Tier! Especially his earlier stuff from 60's and 70's. You're going to shit yourselves when you hear Sir Duke. Masterpiece!
Stevie is my all time favorite! I met him at the Dallas Airport in 1990/ shook his hand, and told him he,s the best! He said thx man!
I am 68 years old and I have been blessed to see almost every major musical act over the last 4 decades.
I saw Stevie Wonder as the opening act for the Rolling Stones and he blew the roof off the arena when he opened with Superstition.....which was so new no one in the audience recognized it. So, so much talent in one human being. Acts I have seen live , very partial list: Stevie Wonder, Rolling Stones , AC/DC, Prince, Moody Blues, Elton John, U2, David Bowie, Eric Clapton, Yes, J.Geils Band, The Police ,Santana, Paul McCartney, Billy Joel, Tom Petty, The Eagles, Doobie Brothers, Bruce Springsteen, Rod Stewart,. I was 15 years old and my first concert was James Brown sitting in the VIP section three rows from the stage . He was pure electricity, no cell phones, no big screens, the stage was elevated maybe three above the floor he was so close maybe 50 feet away from my seat. I am truly blessed as a music lover to have seen these live acts multiple times. We will never see such a vast array of musical talents such as these again . I thank you guys so much for introducing a younger audience to the music of my generation.
Stevie Wonder is one of those musicians that I rarely seek out, yet am very happy when he shows up.
Stevie Wonder is my all-time favorite artist!!! And this song is my all-time favorite song from him along with "As" He is a Genius!!! And he is legendary!!!!
Absolutely outstanding song.. a true treasure. I went through a spell around 1990 listening to this in massive quantities! And the song was already decades old then!!
Growing up in the UK in the 70s Stevie was one of the most incredible artists you could ever want to hear. Imagine me when I herd, I just called to say I love you, in the 80s....... A part of me died inside.
Great❗ I forgot how good it is! I didn't vote for it, lol. I'm gonna second a suggestion for Curtis Mayfield. "Superfly" is the deservedly huge hit from Mayfield. "Pusherman" would be the song of his to hear after Superfly.
I've always preferred "Freddie's Dead". Great pathos in that song.
Yes this is an s tier. I always wish i knew this song by stevie wonder like 5 years ago. Banger and has a very cathy chorus.
He is a gift we don't deserve.... Protect him at all cost.
Suggestion, if ever you come back to read these comments so late....
Stevie Wonder on stage with Sting at Sting's concert.
He brought him on to perform Sting's song "Fragile".
The way he sung it....OH MY GOD! You would think he wrote the song and it was his.
Sting just looked in awe. He felt it too.
Stevie Wonder is S tier in perpetuity. "You are the sunshine of my life" is one of the sweetest love songs ever written, and it was for his daughter.
The breath thing becomes part of his phrasing -
Also, with a bit of compression, (bringing the breath up in volume slightly) this phrasing technique was used extensively by many folks later (George Michael comes to mind)
I love George Michael! Rip. And Wham
My favorite song by Stevie.
69 and 10/12 says anyone want some rap now..........Real music from the 60's and to the 80's will never die!
I can't put into words how happy I am with this song and the reaction. I am so glad you guys liked it. S all the way.
Love this one! Aww the memories! The moves! What fun! Great reaction! Thanks 😎😍😜
That's the difference between producers form the past and today. Today everything has to be perfect. Back then, a few warts in the music was usually left in. Today everything is so mechanical sounding.
The difference is that the computers do all the work. The people just stand there and try to look good.
He is indeed a wonder. Great reaction guys. More Motown please!
👍❤🤙
I think I read somewhere that the title idea came from his mom! Stevie wonder had such an unbelievable range and he was so ridiculously talented! Some of his songs were played entirely by him on every instrument, and he’s got everything from funk, soul, jazz fusion, pop, reggae, etc! There’s even a nuts video of him playing giant steps, he’s the real deal
I’ve never heard a Stevie Wonder song where I wasn’t smiling and listening with amazement at his genius!!
OMGOODNESS Motown is in a class of its own there’s nothing like it. Stevie Wonder another Michigan man I grew up listening to. We always had Motown kicking in our house.
