| David Gray – Transformation Lyrics

I consider this a love song, describing the act of falling in love as a transformation. In the beginning, we see a bachelor who has a soft side. Then, the daily struggles of life being eased. Finally, a new kind of peace is achieved through the love of a woman as the author was transformed to accept such a love. |

| Stevie Wonder – I Just Called To Say I Love You Lyrics
| 15 years ago

This song was written by Stevie to Nelson Mandela, who was imprisoned at the time (for around 30 years!) for his part in fighting against the apartheid system in place in South Africa. Apartheid was the legal racial segregation system in place since 1948. The song depicts what Mandela had missed out on each year, every year while he was in prison. While not in the song, it is worth it to mention that apartheid ended and Mandela was elected the President of South Africa in 1994 in the first democratic election of the country. |
