I fell in love with this album aged 9-10 years old back in 77. Even back then, music this good used to just take my mind away to some OTHER place. Avery special album from a very special era.
There is no song that is "the best" song ever written. If there was a single song that was the best song ever written, there would be no point in writing any new music and life would be quite boring. But im sure you probably didn't mean the comment to be taken literally.
Thank You ! :-) I once got into a huge argument with a best friend because I said this (back in the late 70's) He heckled me with that for years. You and I agree my friend.
As a child growing up in the Bronx, This Album got me through some dark moments. Songs like this, Village Ghetto Land and I Wish. There will never be another artist such as Stevie. We are blessed to have his art.
People who dislike this song probably have lil wayne on repeat! So their opinions dont matter because they clearly dont know what the hell real music is and what a real artist sounds like!
May or may not be the best; BUT it is my favorite song.For years thought it was "Always" because in the days of 8 track,albums,cassette you just knew where it was.Saw Stevie Wonder and Wonderlove open for the Stones in Philly with what started as a hostile audience.He got a standing ovation at the end of the first song Living for the City. Pretty close to blowing the Stones off the stage.Stevie has been a gift of music,peace,happiness and well being for me.I listen to As daily.
We all know sometimes life's pains and troubles can make you wish you were born in another time and place. But u can bet your life times that and twice its double that God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed! I love this song and Stevie!
So I've been listening to a few songs since I'm new to Stevie Wonder, and they keep getting better and better and BETTER. This one is astonishingly good. Is that still him singing when it switches to that deep angry growl? That's passion.
... really? George Michael, Mary J Blige? Really? When artists such as Michael Jackson and the OJays has such reguard for them that they are willing to sing BACKUP on thier albums, I think not. They are fine srtists and everyone is entitled to their opinion, but they are not in the same league as Stevie. He is one the few one name icons who's talent is truely deserving of the honor....
@gottagota Without getting into your lack of grammar, you speak of taste as if it is absolute, when all it can ever be is opinion. To claim that there is no emotion when the man is covering more of a vocal range than George & Mary (you did forget to mention her by the way) put together!
But le me further ask, if there is no emotion in this version, what do you call it when Stevie comes in after the instrumental?
@QuicksylverInc : my lack of grammar is because i 'm not english , i learn . I don't speak of taste as if it is absolute , but if it was the case , i'm free to think it ... i don't understand your question ...
I'm wondering if there are any lyrics better than this... this is the most beautifully written song ever! I looked them up once to sing along and could not get past the poetry...
This is a good song for sure, but those who dislike it are entitled to their opinion. Hard to talk about acceptance and love and Stevie's mission in life, then turn around and blast those who don't like his music. Those who don't like his music, like some other music or things. Those of us who DO like is music should be open-minded tho.
@CoolerKing37 General Curiosity? I know I knew of Stevie Wonder long before I really sat down and listened to his music, perhaps it's the same for other people too.
@utubehall If not the best song ever, it easily can be considered Stevie's best. It certainly is MY favorite song by Stevie Wonder, a great great singer and songwriter. One of the best musical creators in history. And I am NOT exaggerating.
@richardmbowman easily be considered Stevie's best? I disagree my friend. I love this track, but there are at least 10 Stevie songs I like more. Livin for the city, joy inside my tears, superstition, to know you is to love you, etc, etc, etc.
if all forms of media were inundated with nothing but these kinds of love songs and all the crap out there and hate were blanketed with nothing but these great songs, then maybe will have peace and love put back in their hearts and minds! Somebody please make it happen! If I could just hack into all the airways and play nothing but this kinda stuff 24/7.
@Call0fDuty3 No my friend, I did understand your point and made the comment because I was agreeing with you, it wasn't directed AT you but at the other "Blind" people :)
I don't think so ! cause stevie wonder when he started , he wasn't in front of a keyboard, but donny has been always playing on it, since his teenage !
@lonlywolfish -well....no , from the very begininng Donny Hathaway was given control of arranging and composing his music.When Stevie started out he was playing all the instruments in the motown studio, but Berry Gordy had a vision for stevie, so alot of stevie wonder hit during the 60' and 70' were ,usually songs just being recovered. it wasnt until the early seventies, that he did receive control, so he started working with the clavi,moog bass, and piano.so as i said earlier it is mutual.
@lonlywolfish -Well,i am sure they were influenced by each other. they both did the same things, and were around the same time.I think it is very mutual.
Thank you for this song.........you've made our first year together indescribable. I only thought men like you existed in romance novels or in movies, but God has blessed me with you in my life. Whether you are here for a moment, or a lifetime, I will forever cherish what you have taught and showed me....... that I AM worthy of being loved, respected and being treated like a woman. I love you.
Lord ,The husband you are preparing for me ,I want him to love me like the lyrics describe..lol no seriously do you all hear what this man is saying....thats REAL love...I love stevie for this song simply amazing!
Some of the most beautidul lyrics in the history of music, I cried when I first heard this song in 1976 when I was 10 years and still cry 35 years later because it's like Stevie touched the helm of God's garment and came up with 'As" as a song.
I loved this song so much that I carried the CD around & paid every restaurant in New Orleans (where I lived) $20 to play it every time I went out (which was every meal). My friends got so sick of it that they stole the CD and I would just buy it again within the hour.
Thank you, Stevie. This is still my favorite song.
*sigh* yes, of course, because he's the current anti-christ of popular music. geez, get over him. i've gotten that same response to my comment at least twice already.
"just as kindness knows no shame, know through all your joy and pain that i'll be loving you always." one of the most calming and beautiful lyrics i've ever heard.
This is the song that plays in the background in a scene with nia long (or was it monica calhoun) & taye diggs in Best Man, I think. Whichever movie it was, I was going crazy trying to figure out which stevie wonder song it was. It wasn't on the greatsest hits cd I had and I was mad, lol. I love this song!
How many writers could even conceive of these lyrics? I can't even think of one. Artists today use other artist's lyrics and melodies, sampling multiple tracks to make a song. Masters like Stevie create it all from their minds and souls and perform it as well. No auto-tune no rhythm tracks. Thank you Lord, for your wisdom in giving us the gift of Stevie Wonder so that we can know what music was meant to be.
in fairness it is easy to click dislike in error .. what is there not to like in this or even the latter day Mary J Blige George Micheal duet version?
@sohooded Stevie WOnder is holding down the Chords and Herbie Hancock is doing all the runz and adlibs. so they both played on this record. IT is very very very very unlikely that stevie would write the music and not play on the album. the WOrds & Music were written by Stevie.
I got this album as a birthday gift when it first came out (I was in my teens) and it blows me away that I still remember the lyrics today. Incredible, beautiful song and so wonderful to reconnect with it!
This is also my favorite Stevie song. It is so insightful, as are his other songs. He has been my favorite since I was 7.

Tthe light finally went on and I decided to check the album cover. It's the incomparable Herbie Hancock playing the piano on As.

@sohooded Stevie WOnder is holding down the Chords and Herbie Hancock is doing all the runz and adlibs. so they both played on this record. IT is very very very very unlikely that stevie would write the music and not play on the album. the WOrds & Music were written by Stevie.

I got this album as a birthday gift when it first came out (I was in my teens) and it blows me away that I still remember the lyrics today. Incredible, beautiful song and so wonderful to reconnect with it!
