On this milestone, feel free to share your thoughts on his music and career. (This will also serve as an opportunity for Deplorables to make blind / racist jokes that they think are hi-lar-ious.) :rolleyes:

I'll start: I once heard a melodical breakdown of "Superstition" that was fascinating. It explained why the song never sounds right when performed live, specifically the clavinet parts.
 
i still play 'songs in the key of life' on a regular basis. 'love's in need' is like going to church-

Good morn' or evening friends
Here's your friendly announcer
I have serious news to pass on
To everybody

What I'm about to say
Could mean the world's disaster
Could change your joy and laughter
To tears and pain

It's that love's in need of love today
Don't delay, send yours in right away
Hate's goin' 'round, breakin' many hearts
Stop it, please, before it's gone too far

The force of evil plans
To make you its possession
And it will if we let it
Destroy everybody

We all must take
Precautionary measures
If love and peace you treasure
Then you'll hear me when I say

Oh that, love's in need of a love today (Love's in need of love today)
Don't delay (Don't delay)
Send yours in right away (Right away)
Hate's goin' 'round (Hate's goin' round)
Breakin' many hearts (Breaking hearts)
Stop it, please (Stop it, please)
Before it's gone too far (Gone too far)

People, you know that
Love's in need of love today (Love's in need of love today)
Don't, don't delay (Don't delay)
Send yours in right away (Right away)
You know that hate's, hate'sgoin' 'round (Hate's goin' around)
Breakin' many hearts (Breaking hearts)
Stop, stop it, please (Stop it, please)
Before it's gone too far that (Gone too far)

It's up to you 'cause love's in need of love today (Love's in need of love today)
Don't delay (Don't delay)
Send yours in right away (Right away)
You know that hate's, hate's goin' round (Hate's goin' round)
Breaking, hate's tried to break my heart many times (Breaking hearts)
Don't, you've got to stop it, please (Stop it, please)
Before, before, before (Gone too far)

Love's in need of love today (Love's in need of love today)
Don't delay (Don't delay)
Send yours in right away (Right away)
You know that hate's goin' around, hate's goin' round (Hate's goin' round)
Hate's goin' round and it tried, breaking up many hearts (Breaking hearts)
You've got to, I've got to, they've got to, we've got to, they've got to, we've got to (Stop it, please)
Stop it before it's gone too far (Gone too far)

Love's, love's in need of love (Love's in need of love)
Did you ever think that love would be in need of love today (Today)
Don't delay (Don't delay)
Send yours in right away (Right away)
Ooh, hate's hate (Hate's goin' round)
Bring it down a little (Breaking)
Love is very peaceful
So bring it down a little (Stop it, please)
(Gone too far)

(Right away)
Just give the world love

it resonated with me BIG TIME during 2016-2021.
 
1. Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
2. How will he know?
3. Will he leave all his filthy racist money behind?
 
I'll start: I once heard a melodical breakdown of "Superstition" that was fascinating. It explained why the song never sounds right when performed live, specifically the clavinet parts.

All six or eight of them!

I sat next to his FOH engineer at a conference dinner once. He told a story that I probably shouldn't tell here, but it showed that Stevie truly valued his work and his needs, and I'll never forget that.
 
Just drive him around awhile and tell him he's in Canada. On a second note, you try playing piano with your eyes closed. :)
 
I still can't bring myself to forgive him for having to listen to Ebony and Ivory 40 times a day for pretty much the 80's. :)
 
He has extremely poor eyesight but he isn't completely blind. There are many people that have been around him for a period of time that think this.

Why does anyone care what he does?

IF he needs a ride to the airport I'm available...especially if he ain't coming back.
