3 Comments on “Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours: Stevie Wonder”
Wonder wrote this with Motown songwriters Lee Garrett and Syreeta Wright, along with his mother Lula Mae Hardaway. Garrett and Wright also worked with Wonder on the Spinners song “It’s A Shame,” and Wonder was briefly married to Wright. Like Stevie Wonder, Lee Garrett is also blind. They first met at the Michigan School for the Blind.
Elton John in Rolling Stone magazine’s 100 Greatest Artists of All Times issue, said of Stevie Wonder: “He’s so multitalented that it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what it is that makes him one of the greatest ever. But first, there’s that voice. Along with Ray Charles, he’s the greatest R&B singer who ever lived. Nobody can sing like he does. I know: I actually recorded a version of “Signed, Sealed, Delivered” when I was young, and I really had to squeeze my balls to get those high notes.”

sblake,
I’m laughing here. What a vision popped into my head.
I didn’t know Stevie wrote this, but usually I’m not so great at knowing info like that. I count on you to clear away the fog!
