Ribbon in the sky - Stevie Wonder

Shortly after Stevie Wonder had a big hit with the slightly dodgy 'Ebony and ivory' together with Paul McCartney, he released 'Ribbon in the sky' as a new single from his greatest hits compilation 'Original Musiquarium'. It is a beautiful ballad that shows off his craftsmanship better than most of his singles at the time.

Astonishingly, the single wasn't a big hit although it did reach number 9 in the American R&B charts. The song was later covered by Intro, Ivete Sangelo and Boys II Men.
