The thing about #StevieWonder, who is trending only because he is THE musical genius certainly of my lifetime, is that once you get past his monster hits, his “C” list is still amazing. I never get tired of listening to Stevie. For artistic genius, for raw emotion & authenticity.
Just #Stevie’s straight up top-shelf love ballads:
Ribbon in The Sky
As
You and I
All in Love is Fair
Lately
Knocks Me Off My Feet
For Once in My Life
My Cherie Amour

would be enough to put him in the greatness pantheon. But these are just the tip of the iceberg. Unreal.
Like some of my favorite #StevieWonder songs are the genius gems that just floor you musically and lyrically. I count among these:

Jesus Children of America
He’s Mistra Know It All
Golden Lady
Cash in Your Face
Joy Inside My Tears
Have a Talk With God

1) #COVID1984 makes it totes obvious that we're in midst of weird globalist mega-psyop. Power of #occultelite and #DeepState cronies to control global economy, politics and popular culture is jaw-dropping. And they've long been up to srsly sinister shit in all those fields.
2) Unless you're an utter moron, odds are you're "awakening" to hidden forces shaping much of what happens in the world. And these occult (hidden) puppet masters manipulate our perception of reality via news media with skewed reporting, etc. Also via pop music and movies.
3) Disturbing fact is that #DeepState denizens (esp from CIA) have long been applying their vast knowledge of #mindcontrol to task of conditioning the public via Hollywood in particular. There's a good doco on this called #OutofShadows. Worth a watch.

Feel like making love — to your ears?
This is the album version of #BobJames#FeelLikeMakingLove, which may be the best song and arrangement ever.
Listen on #Spotify
#BobJames started playing the piano at age 4.
In 1962, his band entered the Notre Dame Collegiate Jazz Festival, where the judges included #HenryMancini and #QuincyJones.
Jones signed James to an album deal with Mercury Records.

There are so many #Prince #StevieWonder connects! I want to take tomorrow to honor Stevie for his 70th birthday outside the context of P. He is in my top five artists & as much as he influenced my favorite artist, he deserves his own recognition on his day. A quick purple thread:
One of many times they played together...
