Stevie Wonder sings for Obama
http://cbs2.com/local/local_story_119155501.html

After being introduced to a standing ovation by the Rev. John Hunter, also a Harvard Law School graduate, Obama danced and sang with the choir and the congregation prayed for him to become president.

Obama received the rock star treatment that has characterized his campaign so far, but when he saw a real rock star in the front row, he paused in the middle of his speech.

"I've got to take a break because Stevie Wonder is in the house," he said. "I grew up with Stevie Wonder (music); I love Stevie Wonder," he said to more applause.

Wonder was ushered onto the stage next to Obama, where he sang a song saying in part "Barack Obama is going to be the next president," as the congregation amened.

1. Good news!
To take a little lyric/poetic license: "Isn't this lovely?" :thumbsup: :-)
