Stevie Wonder: Lately (LIVE 1981) (My "Stereo Studio Sound" Re-Edit)

Stevie suspects his lover of cheating, noticing little tell-tale signs. A tiny hit in the US, it was bigger in the UK, reaching No. 3, and is now considered one of his finest ballads. With Wonder using minor 7th, 9th and 11th chords to make the song sound more heart-wrenching, the final key change in the chorus modulates from the original key up three keys higher. As the song ends on a minor key, you’re not sure whether the betrayed has decided to stay with their partner or not.
