Even blind, he has more musical vision than most ‘singers’ today.

I can barely get my head around the fact that this was 53 years ago.

I’m Italian, nearly 70, and I truly gelive that this is one if the best live songs ever delivered in the public domain. Don’t look at Aretha and Stevie but the band and backing singers. They are full of joy and pride!!

In 200 years Stevie Wonder will be considered in the same pantheon of Bach, Brahms, Mozart and others!!

Stevie Wonder is a musical, lyrical genius! His music is timeless!

Dedicating this song to my beautiful wife in hospital. This is one of the songs I played for her over 20 years ago. Babe, your not going anywhere except home with all of us. Love you Blondie 😍 💗 💓 💛 ♥️

Thank you God for the Gift of Stevie Wonder!!!!

Because a massive amount of folks are still visiting this video - which is one of the six mosogotam tracks with more than 5M (5000) views - and the fact that there have been no new videos uploaded in four years, this is a courtesy post to let you know that the owner of this channel, mosogotam, whose real name is John Perrone, sadly passed away from COVID-19 on April 5th, 2020 - tragically, he was one of the very early victims of the virus. John was an absolute creative genius for this and all the other wonderful tracks he created! While his death at 70 is a tragedy and we won't get any new productions from him, he still managed to leave us with a goldmine of material to enjoy for years to come - what a gift! John, may you rest in peace.

I was 14 when I fell in love with Stevie through this song. Today, at 69, I still love him, his integrity, his world views, his love he brings to all. ❤🎉

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are in the Presence of Greatness

Of all the many hits Stevie Wonder had, this is my favorite. He seems so happy when he sings this song and his harmonica never sounded better.

This song, it really helps ya in moments when you feel completely worthless. It just reminds ya, you have a purpose, someone loves ya, someone needs ya. I like that. Thanks Stevie Wonder.

What a voice! What a smile! And OMG, no one can play a harmonica like Stevie Wonder.

this song is not only the definition of a musical masterpiece but also one of the strongest declarations of unconditional love.... I'm in tears every time (and i really mean it) i hear this Thank you Mr Stevie Wonder for this extraordinary work of art

If it wasn't for KZfaq, no one would have believed Grandma danced with Stevie Wonder on live television

2020 and the world is going through quarantine, music like this will get is through.

This extended version is EVERYTHING!!!!

OMG!!! that was absolutely "BELLISSIMO!!!" as I listened to it today, 9.27.2023

Stevie Wonder just makes me smile. He truly sings from the heart. What an amazing voice!

Yes, I too adore (little) Stevie Wonder. He often make Me Wonder!

this is a part of my brother's mixtape I am playing him over Zoom. They just removed him from a respirator and we are leaving it to God. I have to tell you - he is actually GROOVING to the music. thank you so much for this extended version!

when you think about this young, black, very talented blind guy, singing with such strength and sincerity his joy to the world, a true explosion of sunlight back in the 60s...it is certainly one of the most beautiful and moving thing that has ever happened in music

Oh wow, goosebumps!! Even though this was the midst of the Civil Rights Movement, this was when America was AMERICA, and African Americans had so much to look forward to……

The Funk Brothers were a bunch of session musicians hired by Motown Records to provide their signature sound..This is one of their greatest works..James Jamerson is one of the greatest bass players whoever held the instrument. Stevie didn't have a chance to show how truly gifted he was until he got older and creating his own signature sound. The harmonica sang by itself. Classic recording.

Old school music is the best..

THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND, THEE AMERICAN ICON AND MASTER OF HIS WORLD AND THE MUSIC WORLD 🌎 😎🎙🎹🤘KING STEVIE WONDER!

Beautiful, uplifting song...that has helped me since I lost my beloved wife to leukemia, Aug. 2019...thank you Stevie!

For Once In My Life is an incredible mix, very clever and skillful.

There will never, ever be another Stevie Wonder, a proud baby boomer, feel so blessed that I got to experience this, about 8 or 9 when this dropped, Motown, Stax, Philadelphia International, Atlantic some of the greatest record labels of all time, if you weren't around to experience it, truly amazing and will never, ever be duplicated...

Uhhh... hearing this extended version for the first time. YES! THE WHOLE DANG DEAL!

Beautiful. How this man reaches inside and stirs things within is beautiful.

this is masterpiece, thank you stevie wonder!

This guys talent will always pick me up when I need it 🙏🙌🥰

Stevie is the most awesome musician I've ever heard. He's sooooo talented. Singers today only wish they had this much talent.

He sang such uplifting songs. My friend met him on a airplane and said he was very friendly and humble and talked to her a few minutes while waiting to board the plane.

I literally listen to this like 15 times a day. James Jamerson is by far the goat on the bass

What a very Beautiful person ❤️ His talent has never been wasted. I would have loved to see Stevie and Prince get together.. Their talent together ❤

So many singers today are just grand-standing, blowing themselves up. Stevie Wonder just plain loved music and all the musicians and dancers around him shared it. That's why it's so great to hear it! Thanks!!

He shall always be my Favorite!!! My dream in life was to one day tell Stevie how his music pulled a young girl out of her depression! I am crying real tears as I think of all I went through, yet listening to his music saved me. Thank you GOD!!! GOD WAS SHOWING OFF,WHEN HE MADE STEVIE WONDER!!!!💎 Tears, Cassondra 💐💋💌😘

The genius of Stevie Wonder ..... the man is incredible ...! This is great man, thanks for sharing with us ..! So far 17 fools that didn't like this .....? Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.......

Thank you mom and dad for putting in me a love for quality music 🎶

I love the harmonica on this record.

this kind of stuff, just brings tears in my eyes, dammit

When I looked into each of my children's eyes for the first time. Love that I've never felt. Love that makes my heart truly yearn for more love. At 23 yrs old I finally felt it.

Happy Birthday Mr. Wonder. I'm lucky to share my birthday with one of the greatest entertainers of all time.

Excellent Song 😎♥️🔥🌞🌈💓 Love that harmonica, Stevie's the man!!! 🔥👏

For Once In My Life I have found someone who is Legendary! Tragic that someone who has given so much pleasure is blind for over 72 years!

LYRICS For once in my life I have someone who needs me Someone I've needed so long For once, unafraid, I can go where life leads me And somehow I know I'll be strong For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of Long before I knew Someone warm like you Would make my dreams come true For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me Not like it's hurt me before For once, I have something I know won't desert me I'm not alone anymore For once, I can say, this is mine, you can't take it As long as I know I have love, I can make it For once in my life, I have someone who needs me

this guy is incredible....such a free spirit, such a class such a talent, what a gift to world of music

The song, the dancers, the music.......Stevie wonder, you bring nothing but joy to the world 🌎 ❤️

Stevie..monster !!!

"Stevie Wonder is a musical genius!"

He was disabled but he is a champion. He makes great music. At my future wedding i want this song. Hopefully. For once in my life i want to say it too.

I love every song ever wrote and sung by Stevie Wonder.

I remember listening to this at my parents home at about 12 years old. Love it still ❤️

One of the greatest songs ever written period. Stevie is just a musical genius. I love his harmonica solos!

Stevie was a great gift to all of us. That music then was great ! Those were the days! I just sit here thinking , I wish it could come back!

You're someone I've needed for so long, Stevie.Someone warm like you.

Whoa! I sang this song after my son, who passed in 2013, was born and then I sang it to my daughter. Little did I know that it would be us three in a few years. Thank you!

You don't listen to Stevie Wonder songs you let them inhabit your head. This is just superb!!

The Funk Brothers backing and Stevie pure music genius.

God, why cant music be like in those days... and im 35 years old. I been listening to this greatest music since i was 12 years old. Greetings from Puerto Vallarta.

This is one of my favorite songs by Stevie Wonder! I love the harmonica! So good!

One of the most underrated Steve's amazing song And, oh , the girls haven't rehearsed enougt! Pretty funny but charming too ;)

Kids today should take notice, this is Real music and Real talent, unlike the crap they produce today.

this song is really the definition of beautiful music

It's May 15, 2020 and we are still quarantined ....Thank you for this great classic

... His younger age, He was a young genius singer, and now He is a mature genius singer & song writer. He proved that the Heart & Soul can see the Poetic Love without the eye-sight. It was showed by his song "My Cherie Amoure "

The joy he has is the joy I receive from this musical genius.

Nobody makes the harmonica talk like Stevie!

Just think, all those girls dancing around him are somebody's grandma or great-grandma even today in 2019!

Worlds best r&b chromatic harmonica player.

My respects to this person, who transmits love through his songs!!!

❤❤❤❤❤,he is a Gift from God😊

As músicas de Stevie Wonder marcaram minha adolescência e se tornaram inesquecíveis. Presente de Deus!

Stevie, the band, the bass, the harmonica, the backing vocals...all come together perfectly!

Stevie Wonder is a total legend. Music that nobody can touch. Never.

This is the greatest of your extended versions. It's so joyful and varied, and I can imagine it being done this way live, and it's pure magic.

There will never ever be another Stevie Wonder. He is one of a kind. Respect. 💯👍💖

You realize that when Stevie made those songs in the 60's, he was a teenager. Just a baby, with all that talent!

No matter how old his music is, it will always stay in our hearts

Stevie is one of the World's Marvels, undoubtedly. I'm also amazed at James Jamerson's bass goodness that added the extra kick to this wonderful song by "Il Maestro Wonder".

If only Stevie was our POTUS, what a wonderful world this would be, between his musical genius, his never ending love for humanity and his monumental understanding of human nature... wow. Regardless, how fortunate we are to bask in his glory, may he forever shine on!

Rest in Peace, John. Thanks for the great Music on this YT channel.

Grew up with Stevie, from "Fingertips" right on through; had the biggest crush on him. The Eighth Wonder of the World! Mr. Steveland Morris!

My spirit is lifted every time I hear his beautiful music!❤❤

I had this for a few years then she passed. I'm still making it with the help of music like stevies.

I love this extended version because of just how it uses the harmonica solo twice because to be honest it deserves to be in the song twice..

Stevies songs has kept me smiling for 62 years ! What would life be without Music , I never wanna find out ! Stevie Wonder one of the many sound tracks of my life ! Thank You Stevie ......

THIS IS MY FAVORITE SONG BY STEVIE WONDER, I RECALL SO WELL DURING THE CHRISTMAS & NEW YEAR HOLIDAYSEASONS, RIGHT THERE IN THE HEART OF THE MOTORCITYWHERE I ALWAYS FELT VERY LOVED SAFE & SECURED WITH MY DAD AND HIS FAMILY, & MOST OF THEM ARE GONE NOW, & I TOO LIKE STEVIE WONDER, I CAN ONLY WONDER AND "I WISH" TOP FOR THOSE GOOD DAYS TO COME BACK ONCE MORE, BUT DUE TO THIS TROUBLED WORLD WE ALL LIVE IN TODAY, NO IT'S NOT THE SAME, YES THOSE GOOD OLD DAYS I TRULY MISS, AS WELL 100%.

a song for when you're stuck in Brisbane with your wife in Melbourne.. and for once in your life you have someone who needs me.... and your heart breaks....

I just took my seizure meds and this song hit me out of nowhere in the face. I took my phone to my wife and played it for her. Amazing work no question to that.

THIS SONG ALWAYS BRINGS ME JOY TO REMEMBER HOW GOOD LIFE REALLY WAS WITH THOSE TRULY AMAZING LEGACY OF SONGS FROM SO MANY EXTRAORDINARY SONGWRITERS AND MUSIC PRODUCERS

I’m trying for a baby the past 4 years..Just found out I’m 10 weeks pregnant and this came on the radio..I feel like crying when I hear this as it reminds me that I won’t be alone anymore and I will have my baby🤩
