Produktbeschreibungen

 
Song Review erzählt die Geschichte des 13jährigen blinden Wunderknaben Little Stevie Wonder, der 1963 mit Songs im klassischen Motown-Stil wie "My Cherie Amour", "Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours" oder "I Was Made To Love Her" und einer schon damals enormen gesanglichen Kraft für Furore sorgte, und wie aus ihm einer der einflußreichsten Popmusiker aller Zeiten werden sollte. Ein musikalisches Genie, auf das andere, selbst nicht ganz untalentierte Leute (z.B. Prince/The Artist, Nik Kershaw) sich berufen, dessen Songs in Neubearbeitungen Hits wurden für u.a. Will Smith, Coolio und George Michael -- alle drei interessanterweise mit Stücken von Stevies Opus Magnum Songs In The Key Of Life (1976), das nach wie vor all denen empfohlen sei, die sich mit einem der innovativsten Pop-Alben überhaupt beschäftigen möchten. Wem's aber um die Hits geht, wer vor Hausfrauen-Schockern wie "I Just Called To Say I Love You" und dem mittlerweile notorischen "Happy Birthday" nicht zurückschreckt, wird mit einem edlen Schmachtfetzen wie "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life" belohnt, mit dem epochalen "Living For The City", der frischgebackener-Vater-Euphorie von "Isn't She Lovely" und bekommt Stevies Version von Bob Marleys "Redemption Song" obendrauf. --Rolf Jäger

Vorbildlich geriet auch Stevie Wonders "Song Review - A Greatest Hits Collection". 21 Songs aus drei Jahrzehnten zeichnen einen durchaus repräsentativen Querschnitt dieser famosen Karriere. ** I: 8-10

Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
While it's not quite the definitive compilation it could have been, the double-disc Song Review: Greatest Hits is still a good overview of Stevie Wonder's long, prolific career. Skipping over "Fingertips, Pt. 2" and picking up with "Uptight (Everything's Alright)" and "I Was Made to Love Her," Song Review runs through the next three decades, hitting most of his biggest hits along the way, including "Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours," "Superstition," "You Are the Sunshine of My Life," "Higher Ground," "Living for the City," "I Wish," "Master Blaster (Jammin')," "Ebony and Ivory," "I Just Called to Say I Love You," and "Part-Time Lover." Unfortunately, none of the songs are presented in chronological order. It begins in the '80s, switches to the '70s, hits the '80s again before going back to the '60s — in other words, it's not really coherent. Nevertheless, most of Wonder's best-known and a good cross-section of his very best songs, making Song Review a fine, but not perfect, introduction to his career. [The import edition cuts 12 tracks and adds "He's Misstra Know it All" and "Yester-Me, Yester-You, Yesterday."]
