Mark Ronson too starstruck to meet Stevie Wonder

MARK RONSON fulfilled his dream of working with his hero STEVIE WONDER, but couldn’t muster the courage to actually meet the soul man because he was too starstruck.
The Superstition hitmaker features on Ronson’s new album, Uptown Special, but the musicians did not work together, and when Ronson later had an opportunity to meet with Wonder, he was too afraid.
He says, “It’s the craziest thing, he’s literally my favourite musician, singer of all time. I had this melody I wrote and I became fixated on having him play it and I sent it to his management… and I didn’t hear anything for three months and then I get a call back and they’re like, ‘Book (Stevie) a studio in Chicago, he’s on tour, but he’ll go and play this thing’, and it’s just the craziest thing, I can’t even believe it…”
He continues, “I went to his show in Toronto that he played recently. I was waiting backstage, I was supposed to meet him and then I just like freaked out and left because I was so too afraid to meet him. You know how they say don’t meet your heroes because you’re afraid of what they might be like? I’m more afraid of what I might be like.”
