So Y'all Are Wondering About Stevie (June is Black Music Month)

Shout out to Naima Cochran @naima on Twitter. Every Black Music Month she has prompts & threads for her followers to post songs based on different daily topics. Well, she posted her Stevie Wonder hit songs bracket that was created by Music Madness. And you guys know I love a good bracket so, you know I filled mine out.

I'm not going to do a whole breakdown but my bracket came down to. My Cherie Amour from the 60s Stevie category & from the 80s/90s category, Ribbon in the Sky. Even if my favorite Stevie Wonder songs, Ebony Eyes & If It's Magic were on the bracket, Ribbon in the Sky WINS.

That song is such a sweet melody. It was one of THE wedding songs of the 80s & 90s. I, myself walked down the aisle as a bridesmaid to this song. It has been covered by reggae singer, Dennis Brown, R&B group, Intro, Pop sensation, Boyz II Men,  and others like 2 Men 4 Soul, Hiroshima, Lloydie Crucial, and Ivete Sangalo. In 2009, Essence magazine included "Ribbon in the Sky" in their list of the "25 Best Slow Jams of All Time". And though My Cherie Amour was about Wonder's girlfriend in 1966 named Marcia, it doesn't grab my heart like Ribbon in the Sky. Oh, know that the beginning piano chords were playing in my mind while typing this post. I hear the notes, Stevie, I Hear the Notes!

What Stevie Wonder hit would win your bracket? Let me know!
