It's on volume 1 from Songs in the Key of Life, which is a double album. Terrific song.

I loved playing that song whenever Coolio's version was big. Most people had no idea about the original.

yep! bummer...can't find it on itunes (the original one)

It's there. Do a Power Search for Stevie Wonder and/or "Songs in the Key of Life", it is number 8 Pastime Paradise. Don't be put off that it has a release date of 2000...the whole album was just remastered (both the Cd release and iTunes release).

awesome! getting the whole album...

All I can think of is the parody version by Paul Shanklin called Algore Paradise.

Nah, the parody "Amish Paradise" by Weird Al is one of the all-time greats. ;-)

It's just not the same if ya can't see the video, but here are the lyrics:

He was rocking on Howard this morning. Pasttime Paradise was my favorite.

Ah yes... In much the same way that I like to spin Leon Haywood's "I Wanna Do Something Freaky To You" when someone's listening to Dr. Dre's "Nuthin' But a G Thang"... Or, perhaps, The Isley Brothers' "Footsteps" when someones playin Ice Cube's "Today Was A Good Day"

HELL YAH!!! WOOOH!!! :-)

That boy ain't right... (High Pitch in best 'Ed' voice)

haha. you going to follow Howard over to Sirius?

Already there... I carry my portable (feels like a rock in my bag) on travel. I just upgraded my Shure E3c to E4s and I'm in concert-heaven.

Best decision as far as music is concerned for me. I can listen to classical, Sade, U2, Led Zep (yes, I am a fan), the Jackson 5 (before Michael went crazy) without moving out of my seat on UA.

Oh yahhh... the flight attendants love it too!
