Stevland Hardaway Morris (Judkins; born May 13, 1950), known by his stage name Stevie Wonder. He became blind shortly after birth. As a child, he was a gifted musician with the ability to sing, play the piano, and harmonica these skills allowed him two be signed to Motown's Tamla label at the age of 11. During his time at Motown Wonder released numerous hit songs including,” Singed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours”, “ Superstition”, “ You Are The Sunshine Of My Life”, and “ the song you used to be able to buy at the mall,” I Just Called To Say I Love You”. Wonder has racked up a bunch of awards and a bunch of hit tracks. I’m a fan of a lot of his work. I can even get behind his ‘80s “ R&B/Pop stuff. Wonder is also noted for political causes and work as an activist. In 1980, he was a  significant part of the campaign to make Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday a holiday and wrote the song “Happy Birthday Song“ for him. For over 60 years has put out memorable hits with each passing decade.  He is still performing, and recording great music today.

Release: July 2, 2021

Lyrics:

Looking back

Looking back at the past and what we had, oh

And I hate the fact

We can't turn back 'cause what I did hurt you bad, oh

And I know that I did you wrong

Know that I led you on

Know that I did you wrong (did you wrong, did you wrong)

But I was runnin' blind

And I wish I took the time

To really ask you how you feel

So tell me now

How will I know if you really love me?

I say a prayer with every heartbeat

I fall in love whenever we meet

How will I know?

How will I know?

How will I know?

How will I know?

How will I know?

How will I know?

Every night

I'm runnin' wild to heal the scars and clear my mind

Oh, yeah

But it's hard to find

The space I need to contemplate that you're not mine

Anymore

And I know that I did you wrong

Know that I led you on

Know that I did you wrong (did you wrong, did you wrong)

But I was runnin' blind

And I wish I took the time

To really ask you how you feel

So tell me now

How will I know if you really love me?

I say a prayer with every heartbeat

I fall in love whenever we meet

How will I know? (How will I know?)

How will I know?

How will I know?

How will I know?

How will I know?

How will I know?

Oh, can you tell me?

I need to know, I need to know

How will I know if you really love me?

How will I know?

How will I know?

How will I know if you really love me?

I say a prayer with every heartbeat

I fall in love whenever we meet

How will I know? (How will I know?)

How will I know?

Songwriter:

How will I know if you really love me?

I say a prayer with every heartbeat

I fall in love whenever we meet

How will I know? (How will I know?)

How will I know?

"It's a Shame" is a song co-written by Stevie Wonder, Syreeta Wright and Lee Garrett and produced by Wonder as a single for The Spinners on Motown's V.I.P. Records label. Recorded in 1970, it became the Detroit-reared group's biggest single on the Motown Records company since they had signed with the company in 1964 and also their biggest hit in a decade. The lineup of the quintet included original members Pervis Jackson, Henry Fambrough, Billy Henderson and Bobby Smith and lead vocalist G. C. Cameron. The song, which is about a man who complains about a lover's "messin' around" on him, became a huge hit for the group, reaching number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number three on the R&B singles chart, making it their biggest hit to date. The song was the first song Wonder produced for another act by himself.

The Spinners were nominated for six Grammy Awards and they received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the second star for a musical group consisting of Afro Americans. Henderson remained with the group for half a century, until 2004
