"Superstition" is a song by American singer-songwriter #StevieWonder. It was released on October 24, 1972, as the #leadSingle from his fifteenth studio album, #TalkingBook (1972), by #Tamla. The lyrics describe popular #superstitions and their negative effects. "Superstition" reached number one in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in January 1973 and on the soul singles chart. It was Wonder's first number-one single since "#FingertipsPt2" in 1963.

🎧 Morning, y'all. Just up.
It's a cloudy, hot and muggy morning in the mid-South, and I'm in a mood. Woke from a vivid dream about a horrible day, an event in my past. But it's never "the past," is it?
I need to cry. Get it out. Flush the pipes and that.
Cuing up "Blame It On The Sun" #StevieWonder 1972, the year of my "event."
No comments on this toot, please. Not pity-trolling, just sharing. Thanks for reading.

I don't object to dead tree books; I struggle to read them due to my visual #disability.
Books are #books and people should #read.
The why I read #audiobooks is below. If you were looking for an argument about planetary impact by book format, that's down the hall and on your left.
If this isn't the answer you were looking for, you can go about your business. Move along, move along.
I was born with #cataracts and I grew up with the #TalkingBook program through the American Printing House ... as an adult, I was kicked off of government assistance due to my sight measuring at 20/50 (this was an error; see below. I live in #Texas and ...). The error is, in restoring my sight to low-end normal, they cleaned out the innards of my eyes. I have no organic lenses and no support structures that could accommodate implants. All the ability to focus is in my eyeglasses. It's like having a telescope that you can't adjust - I have "distance" vision at the top and "reading" in the bifocal insert. And they're a special type of lens that even my workplace's vision plan does not cover. So yes, I technically see 20/50, but only what I'm directly looking at. To look at anything, I have to turn my entire head.

@HumToTable @Defiance That's like being #blessed. #TalkingBook, man. You Are the Sunshine of My Life is one of the best album openers of all time. You've Got it Bad Girl's chord's are so gorgeous it's a #standard, covered by #DonaldByrd and #HerbieHancock And that's just side one.

Now spinning at my house, because...
...well actually, you never need any reason to put on #TalkingBook by #StevieWonder...you just embrace being alive
