American Idol Season 5 - The Songs

Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours

By Bill Lamb, About.com

This song was one of Stevie Wonder's last major hit songs for Motown before insisting on complete artistic control of all of his own recordings. It is heavily influenced by the soul music from the Memphis-based label Stax Records. Peter Frampton took the song back into the top 40 7 years later in 1977.
