1* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W130l1uoTY0 Stevie on stage with Ray Charles.]]
2* '''"Superstition"''' from ''Music/TalkingBook''. Seriously, the song is one whole Crowning Moment of Awesome.
3** The absolute zenith is probably [[https://youtu.be/_ul7X5js1vE this performance]]. . . from ''Series/SesameStreet''. A performance every variety show would have killed for and he did it for a children's edutainment show.
4* "As" from ''Music/SongsInTheKeyOfLife'': the most epic love song ever created.
5* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZnv6qLWPy4 His cover]] of "Blowin' in the Wind" as performed at the 30th anniversary concert for Music/BobDylan.
6* Stevie's successful campaigning to make [[UsefulNotes/CivilRightsMovement the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s]] birthday a national holiday in the [[TheEighties 1980s]], popularizing the cause with his 1980 single, "Happy Birthday".
7* Stevie being the youngest solo artist to top the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 at age 13.
8* Stevie being the only artist to have three consecutive albums win Album of the Year at the Grammys.
9* Stevie being able to write and produce his own music while blind is awesome.
