Just in case you didn't know, the owner of this channel, mosogotam, whose real name is John Perrone, sadly passed away April 5, 2020 from COVID-19. He was an absolute genius for this and all the other wonderful tracks he created. May he rest in peace.
@@1Airwaving ..his mother went through alot! She was once, forced into prostitution (pimped) by Stevie Wonder's dad Calvin, to make ends meet, when the kids were young! She finally divorced his butt! Check out the book "Blind Faith", it's her memoir of her abusive relationship! She was really pretty, too!
This and his work on Bernadette is an absolute master class. I wish more bass players did walking bass like James did. Also you can hear how influential he was to Paul McCartney and Nile Rogers in just this one track
@@9999bigbNo, James Jamerson played on Bernadette. I believe the comment was stating how Jamerson's Bass playing influenced Bernard Edwards (Chic Bassest) among others
Yeah, I don't & won't argue with folks about "who played what" on these fabulous mixes however I thank Shane Husack for his support. Of COURSE it was Jamerson!!
Born and raised in Detroit was a young man going up in Detroit during the 60s actually a little boy you had to be there when I hear this song it brings tears to my eyes didn't know how beautiful Detroit was in those days
i have just now learnt of the passing of this channels owner, John Perrone, and even though i am extremely late to this i would like to say Rest in Peace and thanks for showing me this fine piece of music
marvin said when he laid down the bass line for inner city blues they had to go get him from a club and he was drunk as hell. went to the studio laid on the floor asked for his bass and nailed it on the first take then got up and left.
I'm 63 years old. Listened to this as a child. I have compassion for youngters of today. We listened to love songs they listen to sex songs. We listened to romance now it's all about finance. I understand why they are so cold and cruel. God save us ALL...
So well said Gail. We've got to stand as strong as we can for the younger ones because their road has really been made hard by so many things. Thanks again.
I heard a music critic once call this song “pure attack.” I love it so much. And I love Stevie Wonder. He’s one of the greatest artists who ever lived. That bass gives me goosebumps.
OMG! This extended version is off the hook and my daughter said the bass line is vicious! Thank you James Jamerson! The musicians are absolutely incredible and the background vocalists sing like angels! I was a kid when this song was out but my parents would play this to death around the house and at all their house parties! Give it up to the incomparable, vocalist, producer, Musical director, songwriter, the multitalented, the legendary genius, STEVIE WONDER! B
Not sure we can say the best bassist ever; there are extremely good bass players around yet that can be discovered on YT but surely JJ contributed strongly to a special Tamla Motown unique sound. Anyway I am extremely proud to have promoted Stevie in concert.
Mr Perrone~ You maybe know the legacy you left friend ;) I feel like you must see me dancing in my room and feeling this 🤗 James Jamerson too. Oh my friend what you’ve ignited!!!
Amazing how a song can take you back 54 years in a second. Vividly. Contains all the essence of Motown, it's magnificent studio musicians, layering of the track, and of course a young Stevie
google "Standing In the Shadows Of Motown"--documentary of the studio band The Funk Brothers--outstanding! CD's of the soundtrack with vocals, also one of the extended versions!
My husband and I got married right out of high school. This was our wedding song. People said we were stupid getting married young at 17/18. So far 25yrs strong. Always fight for ur love.
I wasn't born in little rock, born in Detroit. Didn't have a childhood sweetheart but i had Stevie Wonder. I close my eyes and listen to this song and just cry at what Detroit was. Such a great place to grow up in the 60's, 70's-80's. What painful great memories
It's coming back! I grew up in Highland park. I'm reduced to tears when I visit, but I'm very optimistic. It's starting now and in full effect after we win the SUPER BOWL. I think the victory parade should start at 8 mile and go right down woodward to Ford Field. It's our(the D) time! No more laughing at us!
@@keithdouglas1341I was born in Highland Park!! So happy it's coming back!!! I love this song. Reminds me of my younger years and I cry. Lions in the Super bowl!!! Yes, yes!!! They are gonna kill it!!!
And we need it...I want that back.We need that back....seems 2000 we turned a corner but by 2004 things got so ugly...so fast that it is depressing, full on anger, etc. I want what Stevie sang at the end of "Livin For The City" that if we don't live together this world will soon be over to be known everywhere.
You Hit that right!!! Never will there be another Stevie Wonder,, he was the Wonder of the World,, nothin'' he did went un--- appreciated,,, still here in 2019
How anyone could put a "thumbs down" on this song is beyond me. I especially love this extended version just to hear a little more Jamerson, This is definitely one of my favorites. I feel it to my core!
Stephen Sokol 11 years old for me. Such a joy and blessing to have grown from a young child to young teen in the Turbulent, Beautiful, Joyful, Tragic, Magical decade known as the 1960s where the human heart for most was still full of love and purity. Love, Peace, and Mercy to all.
I don't recall hearing the original until a couple of days ago. Then I found this. It really blessed me. It's a beautiful song. I believe this is the way God intended the husband to love His wife.
The finest bass part EVER played on a tune! Its the "hook"- that's what that one finger style James used was called! Jamerson-the epitome of bass players! We love You brother!
The Funk Brothers ! Damn ! Those legendary guitar riffs and bass - still gives me butterflies every time! And Stevie Wonder’s vocals. The song is truly one of the most heartfelt and emotionally emphatic records ever produced! Remind me of the innocence of my childhood in the days before the harsh realities of life interrupted. 🤔
You’re comment made me emotional. I’m 49, so it reminded me of my childhood in a different way than it does for you. It reminds me of me and my brothers HAPPY childhoods, and poor, but amazing home life, because this song is about our mom and dad’s enduring, passionate, loyal, and fun LOVE. RIP sweet mom❤
This song take back into the 60s so much we had good times riding our bikes across town all the neighborhood kid we had bikes like thge one debo took from red lol
It's not my fave. But it ranks very high.... because my dad loves it so much. Idk if it is with nostalgia but he sings it really hard when I play it for him....lol....
I never get tired of listening to these stretched out versions of these classic motown songs . Really lets you hear how awesome the funk brothers were . They have to be the tightest band to ever walk the earth . No doubt.
Everybody that touched this song was at the top of what music could be. The best of all : James Jamerson, with his contrapuntal bass that made the tune sound like two tunes rolled into one.
From 1967: WOW! All done at 2648 West Grand Blvd two years before i was born into the Motown sound of young America...makes me proud to be a Detroit native!
This is soul music at it's best!!!!! I truly wished I born in this era!!!! I thank GOD that I had my father in my life to bless me to here this wonderful music!!!!! I don't care how old you are….if you can't feel the lyrics of this song you don't know soul music
Summer, 1967 - Vacation to Chicago, Ill. for the first (and last) time. Came back home singing "I Was Made To Love [Him]" My mother said, "Oh - really, now. The next time you go to Chicago, you'll be grown!" I was grown the next time I saw Chi-town - my mama didn't play! Love this extended version - thanks so much!
Thank You, Jesus, Redeemer of The Universe, for Mr. Stevie Wonder. I was born in Saginaw, Mi., I knew his cousins, Speedy and Dallas's family I'm grateful for his life, and music❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Another one of Jamerson's iconic, hard to duplicate basslines. What a "feel" this brother had for rhythm....amazing to listen to. All the more mesmerizing if he did this with one finger. I honesty believe he did use one finger because of the "laid back" "slow hand" sound his style his produces. Incredible! Thanks for your incredible basslines Mr. Jamerson! RIH!
You are ABSOLUTELY correct. In fact, please look up Carol Kaye, the blue-eyed soul sister. Both she and brother Jamerson had created basslines and guitar licks on which music created during this era were fundamentally based (no pun intended).
I am beyond flabbergasted when listening to this utter brilliance and looking up and seeing anyone one disliking this!..You have to have been dropped on your head repeatedly as a baby not to love this!....What in the flying F*** are you looking for in a song?!...Seriously!
I first visited the Motown Museum in 1992. I literally cried just thinking of all of the beautiful music that was created in that small building. It's amazing!
This hands down is the BEST remix of this song I have heard. It pays proper homage to it in every way possible. All the parts of the song sound good, builds nicely into the vocals, breaks for dancing but always a great listen. Supreme front to back as usual.
Jamersom and West Montgomery had two of the most unorthodox styles that not just there playing was great but there styles set them apart from any other musicians of the time and any beyond.
Best version ever I'm an old school guitar player trying to learn this version is the best you hear what instrument is doing. And gues what that's all him. Every dam instrument. He was born by God to give us good feel, groove, insight. And so much more. Theme of life babe. This song gives me so much on so many levels. I'm a 41 years old. I'd give n thing to live back in his day. What times those were.
I’ve had an amazing great life! But nothing was better than being a 10 year old in 67 ❤️ and this song was a huge part of it 💪🏿💪🏼….What a great wonderful extended version 👍🏻 thanks for mix.
Just in case you didn't know, the owner of this channel, mosogotam, whose real name is John Perrone, sadly passed away April 5, 2020 from COVID-19. He was an absolute genius for this and all the other wonderful tracks he created. May he rest in peace.

Yes I enjoyed many of his videos!!!
RIP🙏🏿
Rest easy buddy....and Thank You.
Rest in Peace Sir. Thank You
Allstar cast on this one. The young legendary Stevie, Jameson, and the funk brothes and them background singers, whew!!!
James Jamerson is the GOAT.
Stevie Wonder's late mom, Lula Mae Hardaway helped write this song- as well as.. Signed, Sealed, Delivered...I think she needs applause! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Never knew this!!!!My friends will love this bit of ed~

R.i.p Mosogotam. Love yr extended mixes. True inspiration
My all time favourite bass line by James Jamerson 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
This and his work on Bernadette is an absolute master class. I wish more bass players did walking bass like James did. Also you can hear how influential he was to Paul McCartney and Nile Rogers in just this one track
This song has one of the best base lines in history. It just gets your heart beating.
@@9999bigbYou mean the mighty Bernard Edwards from Chic, a straight boss on the bass!!!
@@sirjer73 Edwards played on Bernadette? Thank you for the correction.
@@9999bigbNo, James Jamerson played on Bernadette. I believe the comment was stating how Jamerson's Bass playing influenced Bernard Edwards (Chic Bassest) among others
There will never ever be a Studio band like THE FUNK BROTHERS
For sure
Ah doze dayz
NEVER! They are responsible for the SOUNDTRACK of the WORLD!
A timeless musical masterpiece.
☕️💯🌹Thanks for sharing. Music for those moments that are ever present.
That bassline by James Jamerson was just utterly brilliant.
Fuckin a
Absolutely right
U got that right 👉
Hands down. That baseline was thumping.
HELL YEAH!
The bass is just SO off the charts..whoa..Jamerson was a monster!
+robert watt Sorry but the bass on this song is none other than Carol Kaye of The Wrecking Crew.
+B.K. Nicholson Wrong...Jemerson is the bassman, well known and documented. Just listen...you can tell.
Yeah, I don't & won't argue with folks about "who played what" on these fabulous mixes however I thank Shane Husack for his support. Of COURSE it was Jamerson!!
Yeah that stuff about Carol Kaye...i would tend not to get petty
+Fred Fender Of course it's James! what idiot would think otherwise?
This is, without a doubt, my favorite Stevie Wonder song. He's a frigging genius. Also, this is probably the best bass line in history.
🎉I🎉🎉🎉🎉
He poured his lil heart out on it. That’s why I love it so ❤much
Agree!
ABSOLUTELY, PRIMO # 1
"My papa disapproved it. My mama boo hooed it" Just genius writing.
I KNOW RIGHT
His mama wrote some of it too😊 from wiki " The song was written by Wonder, his mother Lula Mae Hardaway, Sylvia Moy, and producer Henry Cosby "
❤❤❤
Yup--great lyrics.
So can't loze it !
Born and raised in Detroit was a young man going up in Detroit during the 60s actually a little boy you had to be there when I hear this song it brings tears to my eyes didn't know how beautiful Detroit was in those days
It's still beautiful Brother
THAT'S MOTOWN SOUNDS LIVE ON I HAD A CHILDHOOD SWEET HEART 😍
I was raised in Highland Park. We got there in '68. Yes it was beautiful and a beautiful time! RESTORATION is on the way!
i have just now learnt of the passing of this channels owner, John Perrone, and even though i am extremely late to this i would like to say Rest in Peace and thanks for showing me this fine piece of music
One of the most vicious bass lines ever, long live Jamerson!
yes, absolutely!!!!
Definitely Joe, I remember way back when my bass instructor taught me this bassline. At that point I realized Jameson was one of the greatest ever!
marvin said when he laid down the bass line for inner city blues they had to go get him from a club and he was drunk as hell. went to the studio laid on the floor asked for his bass and nailed it on the first take then got up and left.
coley22 Sometimes, that's how it happens, and gives the best results under those conditions👏
The bass line is awesome! It gets me every time!
Who else besides me comes here just to get a whole vibe on Mr. James Jamerson?
You play bass? I started playing after I couldn't drums in my new place. I have no idea how he played everything with his pointer finger.
@@AndrewRobbins-d2e No, I've never played bass, but would love to learn. I also want to play with one finger as he had!
5:30
I'm not sure are you messing with me or have good advice>@@dalewimbish1435
+ check out the lead /rhythm riffs...mfr classic
I'm 63 years old. Listened to this as a child. I have compassion for youngters of today. We listened to love songs they listen to sex songs. We listened to romance now it's all about finance. I understand why they are so cold and cruel. God save us ALL...

As they say WORD!!!!
The greatest bass player ever. If there's any doubt, play the song again.
TELL THEM AGAIN, AND SAY IT LOUDER! NO ONE HAS EVER INFLUENCED ELECTRIC BASS PLAYING LIKE JAMES JAMERSON!!!!🥰😜💓🧡
Ya
Great but that would be McCartney...
Stevie is a living legend! Rest in peace brilliant bassist James Jamerson and the rest of the great Funk Brothers.

Anyway I am extremely proud to have promoted Stevie in concert.
James fabulous to be sure. And then there's Paul McCartney - pretty good bassist in a different genre
@@collectoroffrance Stevie thumped a pretty solid bass on some of his later albums. With no doubt, Jamerson set the Motown standard.
THE f UNK BROTHERS , DONT FORGET TEMPS PAPA WAS A ROLLING STONE . that bass at the beginning. Wow. cant forget it.
Mr Perrone~
You maybe know the legacy you left friend ;)

Just a straight hater
That king James Jamerson bass is all over the place with amazing grace.😎😎😎😎😎 WHAT !!!!!
this masterpiece needs to be re-released as this optimum version!
First heard this great sound at 21 yrs.-- now 71yrs. and still one of my all-time favorites.
Stephen Sokol yes sir old school mad respect sir!
Dynamite . . Great song and mix . . Ty Stevie!!!
Stephen Soko
First album I bought. Still one of favs.
Stephen Sokol 11 years old for me. Such a joy and blessing to have grown from a young child to young teen in the Turbulent, Beautiful, Joyful, Tragic, Magical decade known as the 1960s where the human heart for most was still full of love and purity. Love, Peace, and Mercy to all.
The late great James Jameson on dat fonky Bass!
My life would not have been so sweet without the uncles and aunts of music...Stevie knows what i am saying. dob 1961. cant thank you enough.
Mine neither 🙌🏾
Absolutely! My momma and daddy would keep Motown's songs on the stereo and on the weekends they played everything! Thank you Momma and Daddy!
I'm just now hearing this extended version for the 1st time and I love it!
I don't recall hearing the original until a couple of days ago. Then I found this. It really blessed me. It's a beautiful song. I believe this is the way God intended the husband to love His wife.
The finest bass part EVER played on a tune! Its the "hook"- that's what that one finger style James used was called! Jamerson-the epitome of bass players! We love You brother!
The first time seeing Stevie singing this on Ed Sullivan, you knew he was really something special. He never disappoints. He's an American treasure.
The Funk Brothers ! Damn ! Those legendary guitar riffs and bass - still gives me butterflies every time! And Stevie Wonder’s vocals. The song is truly one of the most heartfelt and emotionally emphatic records ever produced! Remind me of the innocence of my childhood in the days before the harsh realities of life interrupted. 🤔
Reminds me of my youth in New Orleans. Great Times. RIP SIS.LOVE YA🥰
You’re comment made me emotional. I’m 49, so it reminded me of my childhood in a different way than it does for you. It reminds me of me and my brothers HAPPY childhoods, and poor, but amazing home life, because this song is about our mom and dad’s enduring, passionate, loyal, and fun LOVE. RIP sweet mom❤

This extended version is a great way to introduce people to the powers of production and layering, perfected by Motown.
perfected by many, many times over....
The problem i had was its to short 😕 And know..... I have no words !
I discovered bass guitar when I first heard this song as a kid in '67. James Jamerson was incredible.
this extended version is the bomb! the musical genius of James Jamerson!! That bass groove is just amazing!!
Aj NaN DeZ Never knew about this extended Version of this beautiful song
Steveis harmonica
He nails the groove!
James Jamerson best bass player in the history of pop music!
No lies told
This brother is a bass player from another planet. His sinkapation is one of a kind.
Wow! Just wow. That strong electric guitar riff..incredible soul.
That bass and those drums!!!
This is my all time favorite Stevie Wonder song, and this version is making me smile so hard . . . well done!
It's not my fave. But it ranks very high.... because my dad loves it so much. Idk if it is with nostalgia but he sings it really hard when I play it for him....lol....
Me too ✋
My favorite classic Stevie Wonder for sure. Such a great tune with a bass line that smokes.
Definitely my favorite one 🥰
So
I never get tired of listening to these stretched out versions of these classic motown songs . Really lets you hear how awesome the funk brothers were .
They have to be the tightest band to ever walk the earth . No doubt.
This is one of the best bass lines in the history of music.
WOW Rest In Paradise Mr.John Perrone now you’re arranging the Heavenly Choir❤️✝️
😢😢😢RIP MR. Perrone❤
Everybody that touched this song was at the top of what music could be. The best of all : James Jamerson, with his contrapuntal bass that made the tune sound like two tunes rolled into one.
Who plays bass like this!? Comes from a special place.......🙏🏻
Rocco Prestia did, but he's gone now...
There'll never be such a soulful calaborrative musical effort to come together again. My opinion, just saying.
Thanks Mosogotam - brilliant rendition of Stevie's best song.
Fabulous song. Love that kick in' bass line, Love when the Orchestra slides in too.
James and Bennie were the great beats of that era. Never got the credit they deserved .
What a bass line what a bass player . Beyond compare. My favorite song of all time.Sublime
DUDE!!!!! I have literally cried tears of joy listening to your GREAT mixes!!!! THANK YOU!!!
Thanks Stevie and the Funk Bros. I was made to love this song. Would make me dance at my own funeral.
One of my favorite and I love the extended version. Total eargasm.
These extended versions really get you into the song. This band is deep into the music too. Deep!
From 1967: WOW! All done at 2648 West Grand Blvd two years before i was born into the Motown sound of young America...makes me proud to be a Detroit native!
it puts the songs of today to shame .fantastic
Cant compare it.

@@2ndoboe And many others also...
James killing that bass line, Stevie hit'em with that Hop. Combination of two made a HIT.
A bass hero to those of us who love and play bass! James, you're so goddamn Wonderful!

That's what I hear...
Yes Mr Jamerson is the MAN...I love bass driven music!!
Yes Yes Yes Mr. Jamerson was the one!
Great
One of the major key forces that produced that distinct tamla sound.

They said, Michael was the King of Pop, well I'm 65 and Stevie must of been the King of Rock, cause he was rocking all my years growing up!!
The bass has it going on love it!
Summer, 1967 - Vacation to Chicago, Ill. for the first (and last) time. Came back home singing "I Was Made To Love [Him]" My mother said, "Oh - really, now. The next time you go to Chicago, you'll be grown!" I was grown the next time I saw Chi-town - my mama didn't play! Love this extended version - thanks so much!
nice story :)))
That bass is badass
Absolutely love the way they show images of THE FUNK BROTHERS 👍👍👍.
Rip JAMES JAMERSON now we know uncle!
It's beyond me how an eleven year old kid can be so talented. A musical genius. #Stevie can see
God gift
He was 17. 1967.
Awesome Classic and that BASS!!! Is a clinic within itself!!! Don't sleep on the rhythm guitars carrying the melody...
Thank You, Jesus, Redeemer of The Universe, for Mr. Stevie Wonder. I was born in Saginaw, Mi., I knew his cousins, Speedy and Dallas's family I'm grateful for his life, and music❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Bless you brother
I swear the guitar work makes my neck hairs prickle,...... Another incredible rework of a classic motown song.
Another one of Jamerson's iconic, hard to duplicate basslines. What a "feel" this brother had for rhythm....amazing to listen to.
All the more mesmerizing if he did this with one finger.
I honesty believe he did use one finger because of the "laid back" "slow hand" sound his style his produces. Incredible! Thanks for your incredible basslines Mr. Jamerson!
RIH!
BassdonDa1 Yes, he called it the "hook" and he was amazing.
You are ABSOLUTELY correct.
In fact, please look up Carol Kaye, the blue-eyed soul sister.
Both she and brother Jamerson had created basslines and guitar licks on which music created during this era were fundamentally based (no pun intended).
Too many people witnessed his one finger (THE HOOK) playing. Dude was the top of the BOTTOM!
Damn... the instruments sounds so clear and original
Henny Blakk we sure don't get a lot of that with today's artists. it's just a different time zone now.
+tanya45096 Can they play instruments?
Bruce Powell you mean today's artist?
This song is why I bought a bass guitar. Jamerson is awesome.
I am beyond flabbergasted when listening to this utter brilliance and looking up and seeing anyone one disliking this!..You have to have been dropped on your head repeatedly as a baby not to love this!....What in the flying F*** are you looking for in a song?!...Seriously!
This song inspired me to listen to James Jamerson's discography,
I should live so long.
James was most prolific, thanks for sharing your gift.
Came for this amazing track always loved Stevie wonder and this being my favorite song of his 😍
Love the guitar and bass parts!
Excellent EXCELLENT remix of this tune. Putting the BASS in its rightful PLACE !
Stevie Wonder is a musical genius in his own right, but "I Was Made To Love Her" shows just how much an awesome backup group can add to the song.
Thank you so much this has blessed me at 63 yrs old Stevie Wonder sings of hope ,
I first visited the Motown Museum in 1992. I literally cried just thinking of all of the beautiful music that was created in that small building. It's amazing!
Sandra Jones yeah The Snake Pit.

I went in 93
Totally awesome. I love this song!
This hands down is the BEST remix of this song I have heard. It pays proper homage to it in every way possible. All the parts of the song sound good, builds nicely into the vocals, breaks for dancing but always a great listen. Supreme front to back as usual.
+DJ Freedom ....DJ...thanks so much for your kind words!!
Awesome ain't it! Jammin
Kim jackson it is incredible!
mosogotam You are welcome. You clearly put in work to make this and all of your remixes special. Beautiful work.
+DJ Freedom ...thanks again, DJ!!!
"I Was Made To Love Her" may have the best bass playing in the history of music. This song is genius! 😍
On bass, the late great James Jamerson along with Motown in-house band the Funk Brothers
@@deborahavery9798 Thanks for the info!
James Jamerson 1 fingered bass, superb!
Jamersom and West Montgomery had two of the most unorthodox styles that not just there playing was great but there styles set them apart from any other musicians of the time and any beyond.
The HOOK! :-)
@@SpikehornMeyer and the dish sponge!!! :D
THE HOOK !
Best version ever I'm an old school guitar player trying to learn this version is the best you hear what instrument is doing. And gues what that's all him. Every dam instrument. He was born by God to give us good feel, groove, insight. And so much more. Theme of life babe. This song gives me so much on so many levels. I'm a 41 years old. I'd give n thing to live back in his day. What times those were.
I’ve had an amazing great life! But nothing was better than being a 10 year old in 67 ❤️ and this song was a huge part of it 💪🏿💪🏼….What a great wonderful extended version 👍🏻 thanks for mix.
