But when contemporary contemporary like Billy Joel and Eagles are reducing their music commitments, Wonders say that he will never consider retiring.
“As long as you breathe, as long as your heart beats, there is much more for you,” Motown Legend told the BBC’s Ceditrexy Podcast. “I am not going to stop the gift that keeps putting through my body.
“What I like to do what I am doing. An artist never stops drawing. As long as you can imagine you are going to be creative.”
Star also confirmed that he was still working on a new album, titled The Eyes of the Wonder, which he first discussed in 2008.
The project will be first described as a performance piece that will reflect his experience as a blind man.
This will be his first studio album since the 2005 A Time to Love; Expanding a recording career that began in 1962, when he was just 11 years old.
Wonder spoke to the presenter Annie Macmans to play a two-and-a-half-hour set a day before, a day before the BST Festival made headlines at Hyde Park in London, which included his biggest hit with superstitions, and is my life sunshine for your life.

America is ‘going backward’
Earlier this month, during a concert in Cardiff, the composer addressed a long -lasting conspiracy theory that he is not really blind.
“You know that rumors have been seen about me and all that?” He told the audience, “But seriously, you know the truth.”
“The truth is that, immediately after my birth, I became blind,” he said to the fans.
Calling his disability a gift, the surprise continued: “Now, it was a blessing because it has allowed me to see the world in the view of truth, of vision.”
In his partisan interview, the singer spoke about the importance of using music to spread positivity and tell the truth in power.
Throughout his life, he has been a vocal civil rights pracharak, and has played an important role in the campaign, which is recognized as a national holiday in the US on the birthday of Martin Luther King Junior.
Wonder, who campaigned for the Democrat Kamla Harris in the previous year’s US presidential election, told Macmans that the US was currently “people trying to go back”.
“It’s not going to go down in that way,” he insisted. “I think if you look back in history, there has always been a point when people wake up.
“And I think people who think it Is Gonna go down in this way, remember that God is watching you. ,
