[For Beginners] Songs in the Key of Love: A Collection of Stevie Wonder’s Masterpieces

For Your LoveStevie Wonder

For your love – Stevie wonder

This song is the long-lost theme song for the World City Expo that was scheduled to be held in Odaiba in 1996.

It was released the previous year, and it seems it was also used for the “Stevie Fund,” a foundation for the reconstruction efforts after the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake.

His increasingly mature vocals make it a soothing love ballad.

OverjoyedStevie Wonder

Overjoyed

This song, included on the 1985 album “In Square Circle,” was later released as a single.

Above all, it’s the incredibly beautiful, instantly memorable melody that leaves a strong impression.

If I recall correctly, it was also used in an Onward commercial.

Although this track is counted among his exquisite love ballads, the romance in the lyrics hasn’t actually been fulfilled yet.

All I DoStevie Wonder

All I Do

A track from the 1980 album “Hotter than July.” It has a questioning, enigmatic melody line that you can’t forget once you’ve heard it.

The lyrics, too, feel like they’re watching to see how you’ll react, and that addictive quality makes you want to listen again and again.

SunshineStevie Wonder

Stevie Wonder You Are The Sunshine Of My Life

This is another song Stevie Wonder dedicated to his wife.

I feel like songs by Black artists often use very straightforward expressions, which makes them very easy to understand.

“You are the sunshine of my life”—if a woman hears that she’s the sunshine of someone’s life, she’d simply be happy, right?

All About The Love AgainStevie Wonder

Stevie Wonder – All About The Love Again

A track released as a single by Stevie Wonder in 2009.

The original was written for the 2008 presidential election.

It was performed at President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration and was nominated for a Grammy Award in 2010.

Send one your loveStevie Wonder

Stevie Wonder – Send one your love (1979)

It’s a gentle song that softly gives a nudge to someone hesitant to fall in love.

Stevie always gives us the gift of words.

I think it’s up to those of us who receive them to consider how we can cherish them as our own.

We are the WorldUSA For Africa

U.S.A. For Africa – We Are the World

It’s a song so famous that it’s even included in Japanese music textbooks, and there’s hardly anyone in the world who doesn’t know it.

In the making-of video, Stevie, who took part in this song, says, “I believe our mission is to heal people who have lost sight of the meaning of life through song.” I felt like I finally understood why his music is so full of love.
