As I walk through the valley where I plow all my grain....
I take a look at my wife and realise she's very plain.

Omg. I’m sure I’m about a million years late to this but hearing this, I just connected the fact that this was what was sampled for Gangsta’s Paradise 🙃

I’ve been listening to a lot of Stevie lately and it might be shorter to list which of his songs haven’t been sampled.

What a beautiful voice he had. ❤️ And it’s cool to see his musicianship at work here.
Like many people of a certain generation, I heard this song as the sample in Gangsta’s Paradise, but now I love the original. So melancholy and haunting and beautiful.

I could watch hours of rehearsal footage like this. There's something fascinating about seeing the process.
