Just like the "God Father," there is only one Stevie!!

[100timezcooler]

[BlueDolphin2011]

@100timezcooler

Who needs a teleprompter when you can speak from the heart :)

[lambros6]

WOW.

Never heard it sang like that before.

No-one, ever, better than Stevie Wonder.

[donpazer]

would Stevie have believed it back THEN that only 8 years later a black man would

be elected PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA ??

[MrSmoothsongwriter]

I believe the woman songing with Steve is is Dianne Schurr, a jazz woman

[dakilla254]

[soulbelter]

Stevie never ceases to amaze me!!!!

[catawings]

Dr.King&Stevie Wonder<33

[murice11]

Who is this lady singing. She is good

[streetsbrook]

@murice11 That's Diane Schuur - she's wonderful. Born 3 years after Stevie in '53, she also sang from being a child.

[telj1]

@streetsbrook thanks for the info. Love the way she sang with Stevie.

She has a very soulful NOT over doing it voice.

[qpalzmxnskwieudjcnvb]

[carl1212]

Am I the only one who thought the subtitles were ironic as fuck?

[MsCarlos1095]

I LOVE STEVIE WONDER!!!!!

[unspokenrespect]

2:17 gave me chills

[monkeysead]

ugly women can sing

[Archafka]

idiot

[wigginsdt]

OMG they both destroyed this melody. Amazing. This is the first time I've heard Diane Schuur. She's a BEAST lol

[billygoyboy]

Diane Schuur (aka Deedles) is brilliant.

[pproductions123]

Three blind singers.

Stevie Wonder is blind.

[alavel2]

The guys in the uniform aren't doing present arms right...gay we should be there to show them how to do it

[kevonedmonds]

dinah shore or diane sure ? rosemary clooney ? who is the lady ? I think she is blind too.

[dgrude]

The woman is Diane Schuur, a two-time Grammy Award winner.

[clemcamby]

blinds folks are very real when they live, think, move, talk of whatever...they haven't got ego problems they are true most of all when they sing!

[tamnliz]

OMG, Wish I was an American. God Bless America for giving us Stevie.

[jduvelsaint]

stevie is a beast!

[aldowilf]

The best version I have ever heard...with or without the rapper...i don't really care...Stevie...he's all that matter...in the new Star Spangled Banner

[BrendanWhitehead]

STEVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my good he's my idol. they both did great but there was no need for the rapper.

[ChippyMcBeal]

I agree

[dapease]

damn f-ing rapper

you caold hardly hear him, but it was still terrrrrrrible

[hund65]

Diane Shurr & Steve Wonder. Wonderful!

[ZebFAN06]

Oh my gosh! Why did this rapper have to come out! ahh!

[TRABAKAL]

Im not an american, but I have to tell this....Stevie Wonder is an institution already, he created another type of music on his own. The country must be so thankful to have him....

[imakepwninlemonade]

@TRABAKAL Do you mean inspiration?

[marlowe27]

the fucking rapper ruined the song! almost perfect.

[BoyMorganIII]

Nice transition to "Lift Every Voice and Sing" Which is the National Negro Anthem. For those of you that didn't know.

[ronnielaughs]

i love it...but the guy at the end confused me. why? it was perfect until he started.

[VonHelton]

Hey Stevie! Take the wheel.

:D

[genius4one]

simply.....beautiful

[sugar240682]

This is the funny thing with Stevie. This performance he gave was OK but I know he can do a lot better. Why? Because I WAS THERE when he rehearsed this. That night we went to a chinese restuarant and a chinese pork farmer fucked him up his black cherry shoot. He was uncomfortable the next day.

[youvebeenthunderstru]

Go fuck yourself. Dumb fucking shithead.

[youarthurhu]

What a nice performance at the National Republican Convention!

[gamedude507]

wow that was amazing

[gvnfn1]

Dianne Schurr can play the piano too she played with ray Charles and Baby can hang

[anthony01355]

Someone shoot the motherfucker rapping at the end, and that generation of mmusic along with it.

[gamedude507]

seriously dude... i agree 100% he ruined the song

[yangster982000]

amazing stevie wonder and company... Anyone who puts there own twist into the star spangled banner improves it.. no matter what it is... yea its our state song... but america is the only country to have their anthem about war... others are like oh peace.. or yea go our country.. ours is like well our flag is still standing even though you killed us and we killed you..

[abelevine]

Obviously, you neither understand the context nor the history of the Star Spangled Banner.  Before you form ignorant, baseless opinions, you should read the history of our anthem. Many battles were waged for the freedom we have. This song, is about one such event in which the U.S. defended that freedom. You're obviously a gay, weak pussy ass bitch...

[haazle]

that's probably the best thing i have ever heard, preformed by a woman. damn.

[ddclark777]

Who the heck is the lady singing? She's amazing!

[montecroft]

Diane Schurr

[Bozang]

That lady's got soul

[andyplayhouse]

Best version of a national anthem ever. Ours is so crap (Australian anthem)

[o2bgigi]

You should listen to Marvin Gaye's rendition. Truly unique. Totally MARV-elous!

[MighterM]

Wow a online compliment to America from someone who isnt American wow ur one in a million lol....funny thing is our nathional anthems meldoy was actually an old drinking song us drunken yanks used to sing in bars lol

[SHAMOO812]

Great job, all of you.
