\n\t\u201cBefore I sing too much more, I just want to say thank God for this moment,\u201d says Stevie Wonder as he makes himself comfortable at the head of the stage. He\u2019s positioned in front of a deck of keyboards and beside a black grand piano. He\u2019s flanked, on all sides, by a full 30-plus-person band. In front of him is a sold out Madison Square Garden with fans who are likely also thanking God for this moment and, waiting with bated breath to sway and croon aloud with the legendary musician.<\/p>\n
\n\tThis moment, according to Wonder, is an opportunity for the United States of America to cool the overcooked political climate and come together. To help that along he\u2019s embarked on an eleven-date tour called \u201cSing your song! As We Fix Our Nation\u2019s Broken Heart\u201d<\/a> based on his most recent single, \u201cCan We Fix Our Nation\u2019s Broken Heart.\u201d<\/a> It\u2019s a plea that would come off callow if it came from any other superstar, but from Wonder the motivation feels sincere if slightly jejune. But, honestly, all that really matters is that one of the titans of popular music is on tour again. At 74 years old, Wonder is still spry and quick-witted. His voice, though slightly diminished, still shimmers with the emotional clarity and tonal fidelity that we all grew to love.<\/p>\n
