What we like

  • The songs up beat music and lyrics which give a positive view on life
  • Stevie Wonder also gives us a taste of Spanish with this tongue and cheek rendition of a person attempting to impress through his experience

Mind experience

  • There are so many times in our life that we are in what seems to be a rut. We feel that we are stagnant and not growing, doing the same things day in day out. So we seek to change this and search for some variety. What we are shown through this song is that we can easily be fooled into searching for changes outside ourselves and grasping to new things for the sake of it. Instead of seeking change within ourselves which will ultimately make the defining change and impact our life

To think about

  • Everybody needs a change
    A chance to check out the new
    But you’re the only one to see
    The changes you take yourself through
