Isn't she lovely? by Stevie Wonder from his 1976 album, Songs in the Key of Life. In it, he celebrates 
the birth of his daughter, Aisha. Stevie Wonder performed this song live for Queen Elizabeth II at her 
Diamond Jubilee Concert on 4 June 2012, with lyrics modified to refer to the Queen. The song, musically 
constructed over basic chord changes, is considered an example of the fusion of fundamental jazz and pop 
elements.

[Verse 3]
      
Isn't she love

ly?
