All I Do - Stevie Wonder

 

"All I Do (Is Think About You)" 
 
Stevie Wonder
Written by: Stevie Wonder (music & lyrics), Stevie Wonder, Clarence Paul, Morris Broadnax
Hotter than July (September 1980)

Yes, all i do is think about this song. I've been singing it since wednesday! When I have nothing to do or, maybe bored, I unconsciously sing it. then, I'm like, "okay, I'm singing it again." Ah well, it's a good song. Catchy too. Why do you think it got stuck in my head in the first place?


But, then again, not everyone thinks it's that good of a song, which brings me to yesterday's event. Our Graduation Ball. haha. It was a bad decision making me and Geneveive the organizers of the event, and more importantly the music... We both like, ehem, mga nilumaan nga kanta... it's a good thing Thomas has his Ipod... aaah, this calls for one whole new blog entry. lol


Anyway, back to the song... again the song was sung and composed by Stevie Wonder, first released in his album Hotter Than July back in 1980, and also in his 1999 album, At The Close Of a Century (well of course it is! there's like 4 CD's in this album!)

You made my soul a burning fire
You’re getting to be my one desire
You’re getting to be all that matters to me
And let me tell you girl
I hope and pray each day I live
A little more love I’ll have to give
A little more love that’s devoted and true
’cause all I do is think about you

Until You Come Back To Me - Aretha Franklin

 

"Until You Come Back to Me (That's What I'm Gonna Do)" 

Aretha Franklin (Cover, Original by Stevie Wonder)

Written by Morris Broadnax, Clarence Paul, and Stevie Wonder. 

Let Me In Your Life (1973)

I've heard this before, but hearing Katharine McPhee sing it was sooo fantastic, I downloaded it instantly, and it has never left my playlist, both in my PC and my head.

It's a really great song, and although it did reach number 1 in the charts, I'm surprised that it's not one of the more popular Aretha songs. I mean, I barely hear it play during any Aretha tribute performances nor have I seen it in any karaoke/videoke lists, which kinda sucks. I really like singing this song.

Lyric-wise, it's a pretty desperate song though.

Giving me the cold shoulder? Won't pay any attention to me? I WILL ANNOY YOU BY MAKING NOISES OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE UNTIL YOU DO! hahaha, but if you don't try to think of it that way, it's an awesome song. :D

Though you don't call any more
I sit and wait in vain I guess
I'll rap on your door (your door)
Tap on your window pane (tap on your window pane)
I wanna tell ya baby, changes I've been goin' through
Missin' you
Listen you...
Till you come back to me, that's what I'm gonna do
