"You Will Know," Stevie Wonder (3/5/88)
The great wonder's final #1 (though he'd go top 10 another five times, going to the Characters well two more times and notching up three from his 1991 Jungle Fever soundtrack) is a sweet - occasionally saccharine-sweet - ballad in the vein of "Overjoyed." While its lyrics wander into cliché at times, musically it's rather simple and lovely, Stevie blissfully stripped-down (and in sterling voice as always). This holds up extremely well. B+
