Title: On Stevie Wonder
Post by: Perd Hapley on October 17, 2009, 09:56:50 PM

My wife is watching old Cosby re-runs on Youtube, and I just realized that I Just Called To Say I Love You is not a bad song when performed by Phylicia Rashād, rather than by a man with a whiny girl-voice. 

But to give the man his props, Superstitious is still a great song.

My former girlfriend lived in the city (Chicago) and was always trying to get me to love hanging out down there (been there done that and over it)

One of those attempts last year had me fighting the masses to see Stevie at the Taste of Chicago.

Glad I went, the guy put on a great show and the band was tight.

I always refer to that song as "I just called to say I'm boring."

I liked Stevie Wonder when he was Little Stevie Wonder. After that there were only a few songs of his I liked.

I saw him in 1972. He opened for The Rolling Stones in Indianapolis.
