  • "orange snow" ♥

  • The Jews worship Saturn, so does Stevie! This song isn't about anything but SATURN... PERIOD!

  • this was Saginaw, Mi. back then, he said this in his Songs from the Keys of life Documentary

  • Guns and bibles in each hand,

    suicide bombs and promises from the Koran

    Who the fuck would want to make contact with this planet??

  • HAPPY SATURNALIA! LOL

  • Saturn... is... somewhere over the rainbow

  • 2:33 - 3:15 is basically my war philosophy...

  • ..Do you guys even know the significance of 'Saturn' ??? Of ALL the planets in our solar system,..Why Saturn? ..There's a hidden meaning to this song, and unlike most Youtube viewers, I'm not an expert (that was obvious sarcasm), so I wont decipher the meaning, I will however say that Saturn as for Planets, either it represents Lucipher, or one of the other Fallen Angels'..

  • @SCM11478 and all that from a song written by a blind man wow.

  • i am not gonna lie...when i first heard this song...i almost cried...

  • Devil song.

  • @TheStreeser1 What do you mean Devil Song?????

  • @supergansta6 You will have to do your homework on Saturn, cant do it for You.

  • @TheStreeser1 i just think this song doesnt involve the devil at all, maybe you should listen too the song and understand it a little better

  • @TheStreeser1

    just because Saturn is or is not a huge machine in the sky which is connected to all physical matter and controls reality thru quantum physics. does not mean it's evil.... how do you ? how do you know?.... none of us know.... try going there then come back and tell us ok... Sun Ra says it was pretty chill. read what he has to say about SAturn.... i dunno if it's as bad as ppl say... it could be being used by evil... if it's just a machine.. .it doesn't know... the users know

  • one of his other songs, with a child's heart, cannot find it, must be titled differently, however, his career . Lil Stevie Wonder Fingertips. His most beautiful is theSuperwoman.

  • last one to saturn is a rotten egg!

  • @jhunte028 haha

  • This album is The Zenith of Stevie's musical evolution

  • This is MY JAM!!!!

  • A song for outsiders - people who think.

  • Stevie paying homage to his masters from Saturn, what a sellout!

    The UN has a black cube in the Meditation room representing the planet Saturn, also Known as ANU, the Annunaki are the EL UMAN ETI, they control the scenes create wars, control the markets, account for creation of weapons, and many of the unexplained missing persons.

  • @BigGift1 well lets take a look at the lyrics to find clues...Packing my bags-going away

    To a place where the air is clean

    On saturn

    There's no sense to sit and watch the people die

    We don't fight our wars the way you do

    We put back all the things we use

    On Saturn

    There's no sense to keep on doing such crimes

  • that it i'm fucking going to saturn too :.. /

  • This album is awesome! Stevie is a truly genius...Saturn is one of the most clever songs ever made! thanks master, from the bottom of my heart..brazilian people love you Stevie...I´m so glad that I´m going to see you perform here in Brazil in Rock in Rio...a dream come true!

  • THIS IS THE TUNE OF TUNES

  • thanks crusty

  • listening to this for 30 years and I'm 37 hahaha

  • @joconnor6 nice...u must have been a profound 7 year old!

  • Why would Stevie write and sing a song about Saturn?

  • @BigGift1 ...can't explain creativity.. we see things logic can not.

  • @BigGift1 Not everybody on Earth is actually from Earth! Many people we see everyday are actually EXTRA TERRESTRIAL!!

  • Comment removed

  • @BigGift1 it was actually called Saginaw -where he was born, but the co writer thought he was saying Saturn so it was changed

  • @clenten Yeah right! Not buying that for a second, although a lot of other people(sheeple) would believe that BULLSHIT!

  • @BigGift1 youtube.com/watch?v=z94uyrfOFa­c&feature=player_detailpage#t=­311s

  • @BigGift1 u sound ignorant when u talk about things u dont know about

    youtube.com/watch?v=z94uyrfOFa­c&feature=player_detailpage#t=­311s

  • @clenten Thanks!

    

  • hey JahariKavi.....you're comment is over a year old....but i LUV it..short, and to the point....well said, brother...well said....

  • I like the parts 0:00 from 4:54

  • after hearing a song like this....man, i wish i could just push a button....no more wars....no more pain, suffering or heartache.....no more tears.....why can't it just be that way.....

  • @smush48 you wouldnt want a world like that,

  • Packing my bags..thnx Steveland..

  • And have Breakfast on Pluto - One Love.

  • Stevie (What a man) Such, { TRUTH }

  • I wonder if she ever got together with Paul...

  • Steev-eh!

  • He said he's "White"...(snicker)...Some seek peace in all of god' s ways, no matter what you are we are all 1. Understanding is universal for only a few and I stand with them.

  • @gtakilla01

    I am half Native American and half Irish.

    Never believed in "halves" and "have nots".

    And, never will "only a few" have universal understanding.

    Do you understand me?

    (I rarely "snicker",)

    We ARE all one,

    Am I not allowed on your universal tour bus?

    How have I offended you?

  • i dont know what made me want to hear this song today. when i was in 3rd grade everybody in my neighborhood had this album.

  • Stevie wonder heals me in every situation, I hope he's happy

  • This song sing so true today. I would rather be on that planet. Earth has become a violent ,environmental rape ,overcrowded planet.

  • One of his most beautiful lyrics. Timeless and always relevant and current. Its amazing how many people never heard this song and I'm *only* 32.

  • Nothing surpasses this. Clean air, no watching people die, put back what you use, no crimes, principles and direction, truth and happiness, living is a natural high; ah, Why ARE people so cold?I would dread being 205 in this place.love.

  • champion de la soul i like it trop bon quel souvenir !!

  • This man has touched my heart for all that i can recall in my life. Talent of this stature is so rare. Genius.

  • One of my favorite work from stevie

  • Stevie can SEE this Perfect world because of the Abundance of LOVE in his Heart....

    Humanity is BLIND to this Perfect World because of the Abundance of HATRED in Our Hearts....

    May GOD Help Us All !

  • Trivia....the line where Stevie first sings,"...people live to be 205",the elapsed time is 2:05.

  • @uVueD2b THAT'S AWESOME!

  • This s the GREATEST Stevie Wonder song EVER - PERIOD - end of conversation - it's equal to John Lennon;s Imagine- the world can learn from this amazing song

  • THINK PEACE

  • xoxoxoxoo

  • Yall Some bitches

    

  • positively sublime

  • rainbows moonbeams and orange snow.kills me everytime.i had an orange 1972 vw karmann ghia convertible.let roll off a goddamn twentyfoot cliff in atlanta.rarest vw rims ever.brandnew white canvas convertible top with the chrome rod trim 1800cc engine classic german tires.1988 and people would ask was that a new vw! love that car.most modest pussymagnet.

  • that is great push on to end hatred

  • racism is not gone. what i hate is people complain about racism but don't even try to change themselves. if one person is racist to you and happens to be Asian, you cant blame the whole Asian race saying "i hate Asians they're so racist"--NO. that one Asian person happened to be a racist, don't blame a whole race fore one person's actions. if you are a victim of racism, the best thing you can do try not to do it to other people; lead by example.

  • i wonder how he gathered his knowledge of orange being strange and particularly loud and out of style in the mid seventies , man you cant say' orange snow' and not make want a dam organge-cicle!snow, cold and white,orange urngezz n apples n O-O -SHIT ORANGUTANG! i get it. saturn the devil, the devil the orange man aka redheads, the ireland stereotype, ORIGINAL MAN.FROM

    SATURN!! JORDAN MAXWELL LOOK YO FAT ASS INTO THIS CAUSE HERES SOME HERE HERE!! uncovered by the one the WONDER.

  • SOMEDAY...THIS WILL REALLY HAPPEN...!

  • I have no idea why I did not like this song the first time I heard it.

    And now I hear it again ... What an idiot I was!!!!

    This song is great!

  • Great Symbolism. LOL. I think I am going to do a comedy set and then at the end I will tell the audience, I hope you enjoyed it, I'm going back to Saturn.

  • Was driving my car and put this cd on my stereo.

    New every word of the lyrics. What a magnificent song!!!

  • @seduction081 too bad people like you have to exist.

  • @seduction081

    you can't even spell, you racist dog

  • @seduction081 you can't even spell you racist dog.

  • See?? This is what makes Stevie Wonder a GENIUS!!!!!!!!

  • @bigKaT22 Yes!

  • @seduction081  you sick mfkr

  • This Is Off The Scale!! :p

  • I have heard this album the first time when I when 14, ('76, hey! hey!) and this totally blew my mind back then, there was definitively life before "Song..." and life after "Songs.."! I have always felt like this is my favorite album ever, even thought I have listened to so many since, I don't think anything ever came close to that one!

  • @seduction081 your infinite wisdom is so inspirational. if only the rest of us had 1/2 the mental capacity that you exhibit here what a wonderful world this would be.

    NOT

    go play in the street useless one.

  • My parents were about to break up and a stevie wonder song made them both cry and they stayed together and have been happily married since 1977. I think it was this song (they can't remember lol). Thanks Stevie :)

  • hey godfather...u didn't know stevie was this talented???where do you live? under a rock? remember...tis better to keep your mouth shut, and be thought a moron, than to open it and remove all doubt....

  • This song is amazing. The whole album absolutely blows my mind. It's such an uplifting and joyful journey.

  • dint know stevie was this talented

  • this song also reminds me of david bowie in 1976 when he was the thin white duke. great song.

  • this is one of my favorite songs when i was a child . that is one of his best songs.

  • mine too...

  • I love this joint, Stevie was on some Extra Terrestrial Sh-t

  • @MYTMIC this song is more on point than most know since some of the wise old ones teach that our people came from Saturn and it's moon Titan hence "Titans the great giants", study and you will learn that Saturn is a very similar planet to Earth, Stevie is the dude!!

  • I love this song!

  • if stevie is on saturn..it must be a better place,..,., he is such an inspiration and this song already gives me lift off!

  • i much rather be is saturn..el sabado

  • I'm a "white man" who bought this album, a long time ago.

    I embraced this song and chose a peaceful path thru this planet.

    (It was on a bonus 45 that played at LP speed.)

    And, if you don't know what I just wrote about... that's okay.

    Peace and harmony, among all races, was sought and died for long before any of us walked this earth.

    Let us seek peace in all ways.

  • @wdchefdave56 It was 45 that played on 33 1/3 speed. I have 3 copies of the same album lol

  • @wdchefdave56 yea man

  • @wdchefdave56

    RIGHT ON!!!!!!

  • @wdchefdave56 amen

  • @wdchefdave56 AMEN brother

  • @wdchefdave56 also same as you ... bought this album 2'nd hand when I was 15 yrs old (now close to 40!) your words are wisdom and knowledge beyond our years

    peace and love to you in the highest degree, peace and love to humanity we should all agree

  • @moodindigo72

    You made my heart swell and my eyes tear.

    Thank you.

    I really didn't know if anyone was still out there like me.

    Thank God and Stevie we are still listening and learning.

  • @wdchefdave56 This was meant for Humanity color just happens to denote which spectrum of The Rainbow of Life you exist  in.

  • @wdchefdave56 I know what you are talking about. Sadly, I lost my 45. I bought this album as a new release and played it to death.

  • @davidmontgomery53  Ha, ha, too true bought the album, 8 track, 2 sets of cassettes, wore em all out.

  • @wdchefdave56 There's a great 20-yr documentary in 6 sections on YouTube of the reunion of the musicians who made this album. When Stevie asked Mike Sembello to add lyrics, Mike thought he said "Saturn" when Stevie had said "Saginaw"- where he was from in Michigan! But Stevie loved it this way. Cat Stevens/Yusuf dies a good cover of this song now too. Do you still have the original cover sleeve of this song? I really need it that photo t the Wikipedia --Anybody have it? Please drop me a note!

  • @wdchefdave56 WOW THANK YOU

    MAYBE WE CAN LIVE TILL 105.?

    UK/USABOY.

  • @wdchefdave56 WOW THANK YOU

    MAYBE WE CAN LIVE TILL 205.?

  • saturn satan himself.

  • This song is so beautiful. A song you can listen to again and again and again...

  • I AGREE : "This song is so beautiful. A song you can listen to again and again and again ... " ,

    also known as ... ~ a song by Stevie Wonder ~ .

    thanks wengwah

    thanks crustybrown

    THANK U- Steveland Morris -the Wonder-Man

  • This for me is The track that really stands out from the rest. :)

  • saturn the god of time/sound

  • It was a collaboration, Sembello substituted Saturn instead of Saginaw, which was the town that Stevie Wonder born. The song was already written by Stevie Wonder. Substituting one word does not make a song.

  • Well he co-wrote it if you consider credits. I find it hard to believe that you would write a track with the word 'Saturn' all over the lyrics as well as this idea of another world, where there's "orange snow" and where "we don't fight wars the way you do" and name it after your hometown. Then have some rookie writer (2yrs in the business) tell you to title it 'Saturn' and you being Stevie, at a very mature time in your career, say " Thanks man ! Have half the credits!" ... Where you get this ?

  • I get it from Sembello's own mouth. He just added the word Saturn to a song that was already written by Stevie. Look-up "Stevie Wonder - Songs in the Key of Life Pt 4" here on Youtube

  • My apologies ! Quite weird ... Although this wasn't a waste of time; I had no knowedge of this footage and it's very interesting. Thanks !

  • Wow 1 word got him credits on Stevie Wonder's perfect song...but to be honest I like Saturn better than Saginaw...and I'm from Detroit. However, giving him that much credit, is/was a bit extreme IMO!

  • Um correction Mike Sembello CO-WROTE this song with Stevie Wonder!!

  • true that ! i reckoned so down further . open (your eyes) sesame ! :-)

  • He did? He worked on the thriller album with michael too.

  • what a great album i remember as a kid jst listening to every song and reading the words i was happy having the words to every song

  • Of course he was.

  • Do you think Prince was influenced by this song for Purple Rain?

  • No it sounds nothing like purple rain.

  • idk maybe it has to do with the "orange snow" part

  • Prince's first wife said he had her listen to all Stevie's songs while he explained why Wonder was so great.

  • I 100% agree with U but In what way. What is your opinion

  • Stevie hit the nail on the head wel done

  • oh man greatest stevie song ever

  • What carbon footprint would that leave?

  • very funny!!!!

  • listen to the lyrics of the song... they are powerful

  • yes the words are far beyond what you could ever imagine

  • Comment removed

  • stevie is in my top 5 of music.... i think #1 or tied

  • Well it's not a video :P

    A beautiful song though :)

  • cmon everybody just comment about the video 4 a change

  • This is really Stevie's world; we are just allowed to live in it

  • @motowninvestor ;) yeah.

    His music takes me away to a better place

  • "Stevie Wonder Is A Musical Genius" -Eddie Murphy

  • Man songs in the key of life is one of the best albums ever. probably the best.

  • ...anyway

    this song is so majestic in the chorus like at 2:12 the chords just climb up. That is the sound of saturn to me.

    Such a good song. Not sure what my favorite song on this album is. "all day sucker" is extremely funky I have to say.

  • 2:12 is definitly one of my faviourite bits of music ever

  • lol, Detroit you killing me

  • saturn....where people live to be two hundred and five..........man stevie paints such a wonderful picture of a utopia............

  • @JahariKavi

    Just a very good sandwich of an idea!

    I hope there is more to come.

    If not... thank you for the sandwich.

  • fuck off your fag of shit

  • Whats a "beyetch" DetroitHustler? We have no such word on Saturn? O_o/

    That said, west side Saturn come equipped with game, fo sho muthafukka. LMAO. Fucking grow up man.....Fight the POWER.......The demons inside your head.

  • Wow DetroitHustler, did you even listen to the words of this song? Yes, Human beings have a tendency towards the evil of racism, it is one of our great failings, EVERYBODY and as you have exemplified it works both ways. If you are not part of the solution then get out of here, you are part of the problem. By the way, I am purple, and have been oppressed all my life by the pink people of patagonia, and their polka dotted forefathers. Its no lauging matter, so don't play the victim card with me :)

  • man im not even white, but your just being ignorant.. why dont you quit complaining about sht that happened hundreds of years ago. not to mention if they didnt do the shit they did, you prolly wouldnt be here.

  • I Kinda get where you started at. But whats with the you prolly wouldnt be here Part (I Don*t Get It.)

  • I recall listening to this over and over again in 1976. So powerful it still makes me weep today. Stevie pleads to humanity and I concur. I like his rarely used small scream of frustration at 1:49 & 3:17.

  • why you gotta be racist?

  • ..just a footnote here..there was some confusion over this lyric..Stevie thought this was 'Saturn'..reality was the words were ' Saginaw'..Stevies birthplace..
