You Are the Sunshine of My Life

Music by Stevie Wonder

Originally Performed by Stevie Wonder

"You Are the Sunshine of My Life" became Wonder's third No. 1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and his first No. 1 on the Easy Listening chart. It won Wonder a Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, and was nominated for both Record of the Year and Song of the Year. This song was the second single released from the 1972 album entitled Talking Book, which stayed at number one on the R&B charts for three weeks. The song opened 194 Radio City on 21 October 1974. Rolling Stone ranked the song #281 on their list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time".

The first two lines of the song are sung, not by Wonder, but by Jim Gilstrap and with Lani Groves singing the next two lines. The single version of the song differs from the album version with the addition of horns to the mix. There is a live version of "You are the Sunshine of My Life" in Frank Sinatra's 1974 "Some Nice Things I've Missed" album.

    Release Date: 1974 on the album Talking Book
