    Steve recorded this at the record plant on third street in West Hollywood. I worked next door at Chucks Steakhouse. Steve would come in for dinner, I had the privledge of cutting his steak for him while he created this beautiful album....one of the worlds best.

      I don’t know. Like the restaurant, the Record Plant was in an old wooden building like a small warehouse. Not a surprise it burned down.. lots of history there

    "Did you know that true love asks for nothing
    Her acceptance is the way we pay
    Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
    To last through forever and another day
    Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
    And the seasons know exactly when to change
    Just as kindness knows no shame
    Know through all your joy and pain
    That I'll be loving you always
    As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
    Could make me the past but that I mustn't fear
    For I'll know deep in my mind
    The love of me I've left behind
    Cause I'll be loving you always"

    Me and my 1 year old have been listening to this song since he was 1 month. And to this day every night he asked me to put on “Do do do dooo” EVEN a baby see’s the greatness.

    Stevie not only makes writing mind-blowing, universally loved music seem like child's play, but he's possibly the most beloved artist of all-time. There is no such thing as having a favorite Stevie Wonder song either, there's just too many.

      @Anthony B You don’t have to search, it’s well documented Angela Winbush sang background for Stevie Wonder...If you notice at the end of this video her name is not mentioned with the other 2 background singers...She wasn’t credited because she was still at Howard University when this record was released in 1979 (she was more like a intern singer). She graduated in 1979. Still trying to get her bearings on this entertainment thing while still studying under Stevie Wonder, James Mtume, Reggie Lucas, etc..,

    As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
    And the rosebuds know to bloom in early may
    Just as hate knows love's the cure
    You can rest your mind assure
    That I'll be loving you always
    As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
    But in passing will grow older every day
    Just as all that's born is new
    You know what I say is true
    That I'll be loving you always
    Always
    (Until the ocean covers every mountain high)
    Always
    (Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea)
    Always
    (Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream)
    Did you know that true love asks for nothing
    No no her acceptance is the way we pay
    Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
    To last through forever and another day
    Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
    And the seasons know exactly when to change
    Just as kindness knows no shame
    Know through all your joy and pain
    That I'll be loving you always
    As today I know I'm living
    But tomorrow could make me the past
    But that I mustn't fear
    For I'll know deep in my mind
    The love of me I've left behind
    'Cause I'll be loving you always
    Always
    (Until the trees and seas just up and fly away)
    Always
    (Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four)
    Always
    (Until the day that is the day that are no more)
    Did you know you're loved by somebody
    (Until the day the earth starts turnin' right to left)
    Always
    (Until the earth just for the sun denies itself)
    I'll be lovin' you forever
    (Until dear mother nature says her work is through)
    Always
    (Until the day that you are me and I am you)
    Always
    (Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
    Until the ocean severs every mountain high)
    Always mm mm
    We all know sometimes life hates and troubles
    Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
    But you can bet your lifetimes that and twice it's double
    That God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed
    So make sure when you say you're in it, but not of it
    You're not helpin' to make this earth
    A place sometimes called hell
    Change your words into truths
    And then change that truth into love
    And maybe our children's grandchildren
    And their great grandchildren will tell
    I'll be loving you until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky

    It's been forty-eight years, and it moves me more each time I hear it.
    And, you know what ?
    For me, that's true for just about
    every Stevie song in his canon from his astoundingly fertile era, "Music of My Mind" through "Hotter than July."
    I cannot imagine a world without the music of Stevland Hardaway Morris.

Now as an older guy I hear this song as a call to love for everyone, not just a romantic ballad. God bless Stevie for everything he’s taught me, and all of us over the years.
