Stevie Wonder - Song Review: Greatest Hits

Amazon.com
Thirty or so of Stevie Wonder's biggest hits--many of them enduring classics--make up this double disc. That's the good news. The bad news is that they're sequenced here about as well (or maybe not) as your CD player's "random" function might do it. Leading off with "Part-Time Lover"--a major chart record, no doubt, but hardly the rouser you'd expect for an opener--is puzzling enough. It's when the programming starts veering from highlights of his self-produced period ("Sir Duke") to Motown assembly-line pieces ("My Cherie Amour") that the head-scratching really begins. And don't try to count the great moments that are missing. This will do in a pinch, but if you own no Stevie, be advised that better overviews of Wonder's career (the finest by far being the four-CD box At the Close of a Century) are available. --Rickey Wright

Musical genius.......2007-05-26

I often wonder what it must be like to be a musical genius, and whenever I listen to Stevie Wonder I find the answer. When I was a little girl I wanted to be a singer (despite being tone deaf), so I appreciate anyone that has true musical ability. Not only does Stevie have a great voice, he can play practically every instrument invented. One of the words that comes to mind when listening to him is "awesome". That's all you can really say about him. His music is timeless. From "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" to "Do I Do" and "That Girl" (my favorites) he just shines and shines. This is real music by a real artist. No matter how many times I listen to this CD, I'll never tire of it. Excellent.

Stevie wonder.......2007-02-24

This was a gift to my daughter. She loved it

Wonderful, Just Wonderful.......2007-02-03

I was a baby and a little girl when most of these songs were released but I grew up with admiration and respect for his music. Throug out my life there was always a popular Stevie song out but I never paid much attention. Listening to this collection brought back so many wonderful times and allowed me to realize the exact kind of genius Mr. Wonder is.

I blast these cds at work everyday. I'm really not supposed to and I try to keep the level at an enjoyable tone but it's pretty hard, plus there's been quite a few people that stop by and tell me to turn it up. His songs are feel good all the way through.

There are better compilations, but this one is a good start!.......2006-10-26

Stevie Wonder... A WONDERFUL musician and singer! If you're planning to have all your SW LPs and singles collection on CD, start with this album. The magic of Stevie Wonder's music is forever!

Greatest Hits is the Greatest Ever !!!.......2006-03-29

These songs are timeless. They take you back to that place in time when things were REALLY hap'ning. I can't stop listening to it. All my friends wanted to know how I could find so many of Stevie's songs that were THAT good all in one collection.
