Stevie Wonder | Recorded after Musikladen #10 - 1974-01-23

A gig of Stevie Wonder after the tv show "Musikladen" #10, Radio Bremen, on January 23rd 1974.  Setlist:  1. I'm So Glad To Be Alive 2. Instrumental 3. Higher Ground 4. Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thing 5. I Can See The Sun In Late December 6. He's Misstra Know It All

Stevland Hardaway Morris (né Judkins; born May 13, 1950), known professionally as Stevie Wonder, is an American singer, songwriter, musician and record producer. A prominent figure in popular music during the second half of the 20th century, Wonder is one of the most successful songwriters and musicians. A virtual one-man band, his use of synthesizers and further electronic musical instruments during the 1970s reshaped the conventions of R&B. He also helped drive the genre into the album era, crafting his LPs as cohesive, consistent socially conscious statements with complex compositions. Wonder is often hailed as a "genius", and has been credited as a pioneer and influence to musicians of various genres including rhythm and blues, pop, soul, gospel, funk and jazz.

Blind since shortly after his birth, Wonder was a child prodigy known as Little Stevie Wonder, leading him to sign with Motown's Tamla label at the age of 11. In 1963, the single "Fingertips" was a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 when Wonder was 13, making him the youngest artist ever to top the chart. Wonder's critical success was at its peak in the 1970s. His "classic period" began in 1972 with the releases of Music of My Mind and Talking Book, the latter featuring "Superstition", which is one of the most distinctive and famous examples of the sound of the Hohner Clavinet keyboard. His works Innervisions (1973), Fulfillingness' First Finale (1974) and Songs in the Key of Life (1976) all won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year, making him the tied-record holder for the most Album of the Year wins, with three. He is also the only artist to have won the award with three consecutive album releases.

Stevie Wonder - As - Live In The Studio 1976

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving

And the rosebuds know to bloom in early may

Just as hate knows love's the cure

You can rest your mind assure

That I'll be loving you always

As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow

But in passing will grow older every day

Just as all that's born is new

You know what I say is true

That I'll be loving you always

Always

(Until the ocean covers every mountain high)

Always

(Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea)

Always

(Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream)

Did you know that true love asks for nothing

No no her acceptance is the way we pay

Did you know that life has given love a guarantee

To last through forever and another day

Just as time knew to move on since the beginning

And the seasons know exactly when to change

Just as kindness knows no shame

Know through all your joy and pain

That I'll be loving you always

As today I know I'm living

But tomorrow could make me the past

But that I mustn't fear

For I'll know deep in my mind

The love of me I've left behind

'Cause I'll be loving you always

Always

(Until the trees and seas just up and fly away)

Always

(Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four)

Always

(Until the day that is the day that are no more)

Did you know you're loved by somebody

(Until the day the earth starts turnin' right to left)

Always

(Until the earth just for the sun denies itself)

I'll be lovin' you forever

(Until dear mother nature says her work is through)

Always

(Until the day that you are me and I am you)

Always

(Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky

Until the ocean severs every mountain high)

Always mm mm

We all know sometimes life hates and troubles

Can make you wish you were born in another time and space

But you can bet your lifetimes that and twice it's double

That God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed

So make sure when you say you're in it, but not of it

You're not helpin' to make this earth

A place sometimes called hell

Change your words into truths

And then change that truth into love

And maybe our children's grandchildren

And their great grandchildren will tell

I'll be loving you until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
