CAFFE` LATTE` 
TOP 1200 CHOICE TRACKS


#389 ISN'T SHE LOVELY Stevie Wonder
The second disc from Stevie Wonder's 1976 double album 'Songs in the Key of Life' opens with the irresistible "Isn't She Lovely". Inspired by his daughter Aisha, the track features the little girl crying and interacting with her father. The groove is 1 of music's best hooks and Wonder kicks in with his skill on the harmonica. Wonder performs all of the instruments on here, with the exception of keyboards which are handled by Greg Phillinganes. Although this is 1 of Wonder's best known songs, it was not released as a single in the USA.

This is a list made up of the songs I enjoy the most, ranked in order of preference: the higher we go, the more I cherish them. Some were released as singles, others as album tracks. Some are obscure; others were worldwide hits or have universal appeal. They aren't always the most famous or popular, but simply a personal choice. I have excluded songs from the last few years in order to get a better idea of a song's lasting impression. I hope you find some new tracks to love, or re-discover some past favourites.
2 new songs are added each day (every 12 hours)  with a mid-week bonus every Wednesday.
