STEVIE WONDER Live At Last (2009 UK BLU-RAY DISC [playable on Blu-Ray
players and Playstation 3 consoles only] - Filmed at the O2 Arena in
London over two nights [September 30th & October 1st 2008], before
a rapturous audience of 15,000 each night, 'Live At Last's setlist traces
a lifetime of innovation and accomplishment, and stretches from
Wonder's teens with 'My Cherie Amour' & 'Signed, Sealed, Delivered
I'm Yours'. Along the way, the show encompasses all the classic hits
that redefined pop and R&B music, including 'Superstition', 'Higher
Ground', 'Living For the City', 'You Are the Sunshine of My Life' and 'I
Wish', while reaching into his classic albums for such enduring fan
favorites as 'All I Do', 'Overjoyed' and 'Knocks Me Off My Feet'. The
exuberant 'Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing' is preceded by Wonder's
interpretation of Chick Corea's instrumental 'Spain'. And in a
delightful, impressive and emotional moment, Wonder's daughter
Aisha Morris, the inspiration of his classic 'Isn't She Lovely', steps
from the background vocal group and performs Nat 'King' Cole's jazz
standard 'I'm Gonna Laugh You Right Out of My Life'. Wonder also
takes time out in the set to salute the British audience with an
affectionate medley of two Beatles songs ['Fool on the Hill', 'I Want To
Hold Your Hand'] and a Rolling Stones classic ['[I Can't Get No]
Satisfaction'], book-ending them with the traditional 'London Bridge is
Falling Down'.)
