Stevie Wonder I'm Wondering = Lee Dorsey Cynthia

[boywonder]

The verses in both songs sound pretty similar. Anyone know which was released first? I know Stevie's track is 1967 [[credits Stevie, Cosby and Moy), I have Dorsey's Cynthia on Rev-Ola's release which only states it is 1966-1968 [[credits Toussaint).

Be nice to know if anyone had any thoughts or info!

I don't hear any similarity in the lyrics of the two songs, boywonder. Could you specify?...

Boywonder.

I instantly thought of I'm Wondering when I listened to "Cynthia" for the very first time. This link suggests it was 1968.

So the answer to your question is....Stevie seems to have got there first.

I enjoyed finding that Lee Dorsey track. Thanks for mentioning it.

Cheers theboyfromxtown, that clears it up. Splanky, its not the lyrics, but the music itself I was referring to.
