    "comment": "\"Wonder begins the song with a 2 beat salsa rhythm-sticking the clave percussion in around the middle while Bobbye Hall plays a solo on the hollow sounding guica drum. The main body of the song has intertwining,jazz melodies played on the Clavinet and Fender Rhodes electric piano-with a rhythmic Moog bass bubbling in around the bottom. The  chorus of the song has Wonder building up the hi hats before returning to the refrain. In addition to a bridge sung in Portuguese, Denise Williams, Lani Groves and Shirly Brewer provide the backing vocals-with the song extending ethereally on the chorus as it fades.\": https://andresmusictalk.wordpress.com/2016/05/13/steviewonderland-celebrating-an-icon-in-three-decades-bird-of-beauty-1974/",
