The song was pretty good, I kinda thought the beginning of the track was a little generic, but even then, I liked the simple cheery feel that it gave off. I didn't even know that Stevie Wonder was actually blind, which makes the story behind this song a bit more interesting. I would give this song an 8/10, I wouldn't listen to tracks like these a lot, but I would be willing to listen more from this album.
