And just like the previous year, Wonder appeared in front of the stage for a duet with Rush. More details, per a news release:
Rushās song selections played an unexpected role in the reunion. In 2025, she captured Wonderās ear with āUntil You Come Back to Me.ā This year, Rush and her remote band opened with Wonderās own āSo What the Fussā ā a funk-driven call-to-action against global apathy and conflict. Wonder once again paused mid-walk as Rush sang, noticing her not once, but for the second year in a row.
Hereās the 2025 team-up:
That is so propheticFirst post ever. Stevie Wonder singing "they wont go when I go" was the most memorable and teary moment for me during MJ's memorial service. The lyrics, dating from the early 70s, are almost all prophecy for the life Michael would have to lead. The song has stuck with me ever since.
"No more lying friends, wanting tragic ends"
"Unclean minds mislead the pure
The innocent will leave for sure
For them there is a resting place "
Top 40 Songs of 1976
The year before punk broke, rock's old guard made a strong, pressing stand.
But as the UCR staff-selected list below of the Top 40 Songs of 1976 shows, the music that dominated headlines at the end of the decade was starting to make a pass in the fast lane.
You'll find pop, disco, soul, punk, folk and progressive sounds mixed among the rock songs. It was an eclectic year, on the verge of something new and possibly bigger than the guitar-driven rock 'n' roll that steered much of the first half of the '70s. For now, though, familiar names are mostly at the forefront.
2. Stevie Wonder, "Sir Duke" (From Songs in the Key of Life)
A music legend pays tribute to other legends in one of 1976's most joyful songs. Stevie Wonder's double-LP-plus-EP Songs in the Key of Life was declared a masterpiece from the day of release, and "Sir Duke," the album's second single and second No. 1, gives a history lesson in four glorious pop-soul minutes. Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, Glenn Miller and, of course, Duke Ellington are dutifully saluted. Luminous!
