Song of the day

Hi guys,

Firstly, I hop you all enjoyed yesterday's post. We've been working on it for a while-its for a blogging competition run by money supermarket! If you'd like to enter, don't worry it isn't closed yet you still have a short while to get your entries in!

We haven't done song of the day for a while now, but today I think I'll write about something I've had stuck in my head for a while.
The song is called 'isn't she lovely' and it's by Stevie Wonder, who you've probably heard of (he performed at the Queens Jubilee concert).

I've known about this song for a while, it has a catchy tune, but it wasn't until over two years ago that I really appreciated the lyrics and there meaning. In 2010 a curly haired boy sang this song at his X-factor audition, he sang it so beautifully that there was a moment of silence after he sang it. I remember thinking, 'that boy is going to go far' and he did. The curly haired boy who sang thirty seconds of 'isn't she lovely' is now in the biggest boy band around, his name is Harry Styles.

The song has been covered by Glee and Brian Scartocci on The Voice UK. It was written beautifully about his baby girl, her name is Aisha which is mentioned in the song.

I know it seems strange, going on a pout God in a well known so g because this isn't usually done, but trust me once you hear it you will love it, it's so touching when you know what the lyrics mean!


Here is the lyrics to this very short song, and youtube link to the song, enjoy!

"Isn't She Lovely"

Isn't she lovely
Isn't she wonderful
Isn't she precious
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she pretty
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
Through us he's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she lovely
Life and love are the same
Life is Aisha
The meaning of her name
Londie, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely made from love
