  • Sheer perfection.

  • Hey Lisa N. Carson! remember this (our) song!

  • **My Favorite Stevie Wonder Classic!!** :-)

  • A beautiful & uplifting song from Stevie Wonder! Peaked on Billboard's Hot 100 pop singles chart in April 1986!

    Bravo, Stevie Wonder!

  • beautiful song - luv Stevie Wonder!

  • you know it was sang just for us, stevie

  • absolutely beautiful.... 

  • Excellent. Beautiful, thanks for upload.

  • I love Stevie's music. His music is inspirational, uplifting, and truly spiritual.

  • I love Michael Jackson, Sam Cooke and best of all Stevie Wonder. He is a musical genius and this song especially makes me cry for his great talent. I just hope I can one day meet him in person...

  • thanks for posting lyrics, this is one of my favorites

  • @LisaRenay. You are welcome. Check out some of the other Stevie songs on here as I tend to type the lyrics as I listen so when I go back again, I can sing along. Enjoy!

  • Lyrics (3) And though they'd say improbable -what do they know? For in romance all true love needs is a chance and maybe with that chance you will find -you too, like I -overjoyed, overloved overyou. Overyou. LOVE STEVIE X

  • Lyrics (2) And may be too if you would believe -you too might be overjoyed, overloved, overme. Over hearts -I have painfully turned every stone -just to find I had found what I've searched to discover. I've come much too far for me now to find, the love that I sought can never be mine, and though you don't believe that they do, they do come true, for did my dreams come true, when I looked at you. And maybe too if you would believe you too might be overjoyed, overlove, overme...

  • Lyrics (1) Over time -I've been building my Castle of Love Just for two -though you never knew you were my reason, I've gone much too far For you now to say, that I've got to throw my castle away Over dreams -I have ?fit out a perfect come true

    Though you never knew it was of you I've been dreaming

    The sandman has come from too far away For you to say come back some other day.

    And though you don't believe that they do, they do come true for did my dreams

    come true when I looked at you...

  • I still cry when I hear this song... So pretty....

  • if u close ur eyes and listen to the song u can hear what he may visualize...(the birds chirping, waterfalls...)

  • this is one of my favorites and I wonder how in 2011 this is still one of the best songs ever written. It is timeless.

  • @chrlrawl11681

    It's still a great song because Old School had the best songs & music. Nothing like today everyone and their music all sounds the same. Hard to tell one artist from another. Glad you appreciate Stevie, I have since he started and love him even more today.

  • It's hard to believe that in about 3 years this song will be 30 years old!!!!.....Can we say TIMELESS?

  • This is my fave song of his. Why don't people ever recall the 80's? The last decade of real music.

  • this song gives me chills....

  • this song is beautiful stevie songs makes a nigga wanna fall in love 

  • this song always makes me cry.. i dunno why..

  • 14 people aren't overjoyed.

  • This is a beautiful song.

  • Bayou, Great idea. I'll remember that. Leave it to a women......Thanks

  • A wonderful & classic song for a wonderful & amazing woman like My Honey <3 <3

  • You know your in love if you smile when you hear this.

  • If I ever get married again, this will be the song for the bridal dance.

  • @MrMiami1125 ....Or a good song for when your bride walks down the aisle towards you :)

  • Be blessed always Stevie. Thanks to be among us.

  • Just started dating someone this past week---and I'm at that wonderful head-over-heels infatuation stage. She hasn't spent the night over with me yet, but when she does I'm going to sing this in the shower when I wake up before she does (I'm a very light sleeper---it's a mortal lock I'll wake up first!) I can't wait to see her reaction.

  • @SimuLord take it slow....it will happen, bless you and real love

  • @SimuLord I've been married for 16 years so take my advice FWIW. Take the old fashioned route and don't "sleep over" until she says I do. That is the most precious part of both of you, don't give it away to a virtual stranger.

  • @Pr0m0m I wish I were better about heeding that advice---of all the things to inherit from my dad (who passed away 25 years ago today), I had to inherit his weakness for women...apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

  • Maravilhosa!

  • THIS SONG CARRIED ME THROUGH 1992

  • amazing lyrics such a lovely and amazing song love you stevie

    xxx

  • reminded of my first times making love to my girlfriend ... I am brazilian guy...

  • I'm not sure if a finer song has ever been written........

  • @drumsyeah This is definately a great song. I would have to say that Stevie's song "Lately is better though. It's a sadder song with Overjoyed being somewhat happier. I say somewhat because the song is unresolved.It's as if Stevie ends it with him still hoping his beloved would love him....Yet he is still Overjoyed! The magic of Stevie Wonder

  • damn...damn...damn...... and that,s all i,ve got to say about that.

  • Genius !

  • @serekithegreat Stevie is a Wonder and I believe that he sees colors, and they paint a picture of Love, Sharing, Caring, and Peace. Thanks for the kind words, I am a big SW fan. Peace and Blessing to you.

  • I think Stevie was not meant to see this world's ugliness ~

    His first glimpse ~ will be one of God's most beautiful moments ~

    I wonder if he thinks about colors?

    Maybe God has created a special color just for him ~

    Peace,

    V

  • @MegaVeronicaLodge

    Your comments are well put and insightful.

  • @MegaVeronicaLodge Your comments are well put and insightful. 

  • @MegaVeronicaLodge well said

  • @MegaVeronicaLodge wonderful comments. No one acknowledges Stevies condition anymore. Your words are moving to me.

  • @MegaVeronicaLodge to sum up what you said......Beautiful :)

  • @MegaVeronicaLodge Stevie sees, as you hear. The world he sees needs songs...

    This world will be long and this type of person adds more than their contribution.

    Stevie is merely singing what we all experience in life, though he adds through inspiration, and love of the ability to communicate at his level of living.

  • I thought Michael Jordan did a brilliant job using this in one of his commercials.  Just him walking in slow-mo, wearing one of his cool outfits with this song playing throughout.

  • Im SO obsessed with this song <3

  • Truly the most eloquent sound - Mr. Stevie Wonder is a genious! Who in the world could not enjoy this song. Such great lyrics. Real talent here. Love this one and many other of his songs. TRULY OVERJOYED!!!!!

  • 12 dislikes???? oh well i guess with 350,000+ views.... a few people accidently clicked the wrong button and were pissed at their self 4 not being able 2 take it back

  • parabéns pela linda dedicatória!!! esta música é linda, uma jiagem mental

  • Twelve peoples hands were shaking so bad they hit the dis-like button.

  • Over time, I've been building my castle of love Just for two, though you never knew you were my reason I've gone much too far, for you now to say That I've got to throw my castle away Over dreams, I have picked out a perfect 'come true' Though you never knew it was of you I've been dreaming The sandman has come from too far away For you to say, "Come back some other day" And though you don't believe that they do They do come true, for did my dreams Come true when I
  • How can someone dislike this song?!?

  • I wish everyone could believe in Love like this.

  • Dislikes should require a mandatory participation in a game of Russian Roulette.

  • @javanity08 yes, only with one chamber and one bullet!!

  • @LeventNimet YES!!!

  • whewww... goosebumps

  • very well done stevie......

  • When artists start covering her work I will consider MJB an icon... I saw her once on the Motown show trying to sing with Chaka... she finally got wise, shut up and held the mic.. which is about as qualified as she is to be on a stage with real artists

  • This song always made my heart break slightly.

  • @PleaseBelieveNu omg i thought i was the only one! It's so powerful.

  • Night Carla

    Was listening to this when you texted me, and wanted to say night with it for you

  • This song has to be during my wedding. during a slow dance... perfect and beautiful

  • listen im so serious who every disliked this i will deadass fight you on lark st albany new york

  • There are some that have said after Brother Stevie's epic classic, "Songs In The Key Of Life" its popularity made it hard for him to do better than that. This song came out almost ten years after it, and it is just as timeless now as any of his others. He easily set the notch up a bit, no?

  • @sapphyre7 This song was originally meant for his 1979 concept album masterpiece, 'Journey Through The Secret Life Of Plants'. So the song was around for at least 5 years before he released it on the 'In Square Circle' in 1985.

  • I LOVE the keychanges in this song :)) So Beautiful <3 .

  • Yesterday thiswonderful son sounded on a local radio,in a quiet night ofthe winter of Buenos Aires.So relaxing, so romantic song and me "overjoyed". Thanks for posting and greetings from Argentina

  • best stevie wonder song, everr.

  • @ADancer94 .Yes.Probably my favorite by Stevie and that is saying a lot.I just love the melody.He is such a genius!

  • Mary J Blige covered  this song in a commercial for Jordans.. BEST COMMERCIAL EVER.. SN; A Stevie song with Mary singing for Micheal Jordan.. talk about collaborations

  • @1ralphskizzer yessssss..i remember that fam, i first started seeing that commercial Christmas 1999, i was 17..crazy, good times

  • @1ralphskizzer Are you really that innocent ? It's all about money of course. They do ANYTHING for money don't you know ? Whatever Stevie is wonderfull of course !

  • @1ralphskizzer

    Mary J is only good enough to hold the mic for this artist.

  • @badassco007 we were'nt comparing artist fam, just taking a trip down memory lane..chill..stevie is a musical genius, ICON status..MJB is ICON for her time period...their both great..

  • I dedicate this song to my husband. I'm OVERJOYED after 30 years.

  • Stevie is just brilliant. Man, what a songwriter.

  • the sandman has come from 2 far away 4 u 2 say come back sum other day"..alot of olo may not kno this album(cd),,but i loved this! the words r beautiful

  • Hes sitting beside a UFO..:o

  • @BackSideOFFThemoon

    Actually, Stevie is sitting beside a 33 1/3 album disc on the cover of this album.

  • Essa música com certeza tem alma!!!

  • Stevie Wonder has a lot of great musical numbers!

  • A very pretty song from a pretty talented fellow.

  • @amsterm8

    Thanks. Sometimes nothing's more important than being in the right place at the right time and taking a chance...

  • 1985年の歌には思えない。名曲はいつまでも色あせることない­と思った。

  • i can't believe people dislike this song.This is an all time best favorite everything good

  • @hottiehottiegalmocha Not everyone like Chocolate, either, although I never actually met such a person.

    This song is so beautiful!

  • Met my perfect dream girl in a club one night and the DJ played this song at the end of the night and those were some of the happiest moments in my entire life. Love it.

  • @rexbo2000 Lucky You, To have this song as your personal soundtrack at such a time!

  • stevie wonders a musical genius!

  • I love! this song this is my favorite song of stevie's

  • B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L.

  • 9 people are deaf

  • You often hear athletes say "it's an honor just to win silver"...and you know they're forcing themselves to say it. When we give Lionel Richie the silver medal for writing love songs, he could say that and you'd know the subtext would be "yeah, Stevie kicks everyone's ass, I'm just honored to be the best love song writer not named Stevie Wonder."

  • greatest lyricist ever. period

  • A great and tranquil song from Mr. Stevie Wonder! Hit the U.S. Billboard charts & peaked in March 1986!

    Bravo, Stevie!

  • stevie is always good at writing love songs. perhaps the best love song writer ever. he is for sure on of the best love song writers ever. he has a lot of deep meaningful messages in his lyrics.

  • is it possible to dislike a Stevie Wonder song?

  • @Jai938 yeh watch :P

  • incredible...masterpiece...one of my fav songs of all times

  • si può ascoltarla all'infinito....

  • Today's generations must be suffering from serious ear infections...

  • I'd love to hear one of these new school singers make an attempt at this timeless classic to hear them cough and choke........(lol)

  • There's a great book, "Signed, Sealed and Delivered: The Soulful Journey of Stevie Wonder," by Mark Ribowsky.

  • これは名曲です。とってもいい曲!!なんだか楽しくなってきます­!!

  • Timeless, period.

  • 7 people only like real music like paris hilton and kim kardashian..lmao.. stevie voice is like cool silk satin all over my body... i hope to dance to this song at my wedding...such a nice pure melody and his voice,,,

  • About every other comment is in regards to the dislikes lol. Nevermind the dislikes. Comment on the beautiful music...

  • 7 people were blinded by stevie's music

  • over joyeeeed

  • I guess 7 ppl aren't over joyed, miserable fux!

  • I guarantee 7 dislike people have been manged by 601 people

  • to je buhhhhhh

  • Truly Timeless.

  • 7 people wants to be shot like what happen to justin beiber in CSI but in a .50 cal M82 barretta sniper rilfe

  • 6 people are not overjoyed. sad

  • 6 trolls, it never fails...

  • Ahhh, the Wonder of Master Stevie.He is right at the top of my list of all-time favorite singers/musicians.

  • You gotta love Stevie.

  • I would seriously suggest that anybody who dislikes this song seek counseling I mean SERIOUSLY, you would have to have lost all the love in your heart to dislike this song...just my 2 cent!

  • @BedRockBrutha Thank You. So correct. Anyone who cannot see the beauty of and interpret the meaning of this beautiful music DOES have serious problems.

  • this is valentines day music

  • Dislikes should require explanation.

  • @adburger Yeah, explanation is "We don't like "real music. we'd rather listen to manufactured crap on the radio these days" :-)

  • @adburger comments about dislikes are pointless and on every video and highly rated, who really cares if anyone else likes what you love?

  • @adburger

    Is easy, there's some -ssholes that don't know about real music

  • @adburger and a brain scan to figure out what's wrong with them.

  • @adburger > i dislike it just to confuse u..: D... :P
