Live aid


Stevie Wonder wrote this to celebrate the birth of his daughter, Aisha. In 2005, Aisha (last name: Morris,which is Wonder's real name) sang a duet with her dad on his song "How Will I Know." The song opens with the crying of a just-born baby. That's not the song's subject, Aisha, but at the end of the song when Stevie says, "Come on, Aisha. Get out of the water, baby," the splashing and protests (familiar to many parents at bathtime) are really her, recorded during a memorable moment between Stevie and his daughter.Wonder had Aisha with Yolanda Simmons, whom he mentions near the end of the song: "Londi it could have not been done, without you who conceived the one."
