Stevie Wonder's: My Cherie Amour


"My Cherie Amour" is a long time favorite from my childhood years. This song was released in January 1969 but I always thought that this song was released sooner. I also thought this song was released in the summer because, I remember this song being played continuously while I attended day camp. Oh yeah, and I had one of those little transistor radio (remember them) and I would listen to "My Cherie Amour" on this radio, also. The "la la la la la la" lyrics seem to pop into my head constantly. I never realized until today that this song was about a woman Stevie Wonder was fascinated with while he was attending school for the blind. I'm surprise that "My Cherie Amour" is not listed as a top hit single somewhere--it is a GREAT song!

La la la la la la
La la la la la la

My Cherie Amour, lovely as a summer's day
My Cherie Amour, distant as the Milky Way
My Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

In a cafe or sometimes on a crowded street
I've been near you, but you never notice me
My Cherie Amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore
That behind that little smile I wore
How I wish that you were mine

Maybe someday you'll see my face among the crowd
Maybe someday I'll share your little distant cloud
Oh, Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

La la la la la la
La la la la la la

My Cherie Amour on Wikipedia

"My Cherie Amour" is a 1969 soul classic by Motown singer-songwriter Stevie Wonder.
The song was originally recorded in 1966, but not released (it was subsequently remixed for release in 1969). Co-written by the singer, Henry Cosby, and Sylvia Moy, the song was an autobiographical account by Wonder about a woman he was fascinated with while in school at the Michigan School for the Blind in Lansing, Michigan.

The song was originally written as "Oh My Marcia" but Moy told Stevie to change the name from Marcia to cherie amour. The song became a #4 hit on both the Billboard pop and R&B singles charts in 1969. The song has been covered by fellow Motown act The Jackson 5, as well as by vocalists Andy Williams for his 1969 RIAA-certified gold album Get Together with Andy Williams and Billy Eckstine for his 1971 album Feel the Warm. read more on the article
