It Ain’t No UseStevie Wonder

I think this is something of a hidden favorite.

That sense of aching frustration is great.

The chorus featuring Minnie Riperton is wonderful, too.

It’s truly a great song! I also love this kind of restrained track from him.

You can see the more mature Stevie here.

I’ve heard cover versions as well, but personally, I still want to hear it sung by Stevie.

Jungle FeverStevie Wonder

This is the theme song from Spike Lee’s film “Jungle Fever.” The movie itself wasn’t much of a hit, but the theme song was classic Stevie.

It lived up to expectations.

It feels like, “Here’s what Stevie sounds like in the ’90s.” It’s a fresh approach that matched the times, so I’d love for everyone to give it a listen.
