This week Listening Lyrics does a little tongue in cheek. The glue of the show, however, is the music. Songs from The Black Crows, David Simon, The Chamber Brothers, Rosemary Clooney, Jimi Hendrex St. Vincent, Mdou Moctar and many more. A nice set of music will please your ears and settle your stomach.

Stevland Hardaway Morris (born Judkins; born May 13, 1950), known as Stevie Wonder, is an American singer, songwriter, musician and record producer. A prominent figure in popular music during the second half of the 20th century, Wonder is among the top ranks of successful songwriters and musicians. A virtual one-man band, his use of synthesizers and electronic musical instruments during the 1970s reshaped the conventions of R&B. He also helped drive the genre into the album era, crafting his LPs as cohesive, consistent, socially conscious statements with complex compositions. Wonder, often hailed as a genius, has been credited as a pioneer and influence to musicians of various genres, including rhythm and blues, pop, soul, gospel, funk and jazz.
