What was Stevies' team thinking when they came out with this ad back in the 70's?!

Strange Stevie Wonder print ad!
Re: Strange Stevie Wonder print ad!
I'm only guessing, but Stevie was probably aware of this and approved of it: if so, the ad shows that Stevie has a good sense of humour!! As does his lyrics for "Lately" from "Hotter Than July":
Lately
Stevie Wonder
Lately, I have had the strangest feeling
With no vivid reason here to find
Yet the thought of losing you's been hanging
'Round my mind
Far more frequently, you're wearing perfume
With you say no special place to go
But when I ask, "Will you be coming back soon?"
You don't know, never know
Well, I'm a man of many wishes
Hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide
'Cause they always start to cry
'Cause this time could mean goodbye
Lately, I've been staring in the mirror
Very slowly picking me apart
Trying to tell myself I have no reason
With your heart
Just the other night while you were sleeping
I vaguely heard you whisper someone's name
But when I ask you of the thoughts you're keeping
You just say nothing's changed
Well, I'm a man of many wishes
I hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide
'Cause they always start to cry
'Cause this time could mean goodbye, goodbye
Oh, I'm a man of many wishes
I hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide
'Cause they always start to cry
'Cause this time could mean goodbye

He once appeared on the Cosby show as one of Dr Huxtable's friends who kept crashing his car.

Re: Strange Stevie Wonder print ad!
Actually, it was two of Dr. Huxtable's kids who were involved in the crash. For no logical reason, Stevie Wonder invited them, as well as the rest of the family, to attend a recording session. The episode was "A Touch of Wonder," season 2, episode 18, original airdate 2/20/86.BillyPilgrim404 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 14, 2021 4:55 am He once appeared on the Cosby show as one of Dr Huxtable's friends who kept crashing his car.

Re: Strange Stevie Wonder print ad!
It must have been in the eighties, sometime, when I read an article about Stevie where he mentioned that he wished he could drive a car in a big, open field (so he wouldn't have to worry about knocking anybody or anything over)!!
