The legendary singer-songwriter released "Uptight (Everything's Alright)" on Nov. 22, 1965. At the time of the release, Wonder was just 15 years old and facing a few hurdles in his career due to him growing up and his changing voice. However, the song became a huge hit and launched him into superstardom. Enjoying a ton of commercial success, the song soared to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, where it stayed for five weeks. Elsewhere on the charts, it peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 14 on the U.K. Singles Chart.
A few months after the song was presented to the world, Wonder released his album of the same name. Up-Tight Everything's Alright was the musician's fifth studio album.
"I normally write the melody first. Before I play the chords, I can hear them. It's like imagining a picture before putting it on paper," he explained in 2004. "I'll usually have the basic idea of a line in a song, like "I'll be loving you always." For that song, I knew the feeling I wanted to write about. I just didn't have all the lyrics."
