Faith - Stevie Wonder ft. Ariana Grande

This tune is from the 2016 movie "Sing" and features Stevie Wonder and Ariana Grande. An interesting mix to be sure but not nearly as crazy or out there as Hollywood has cooked up in the past... I'm definitely a fan of both artists - Ariana of course does much more modern and potentially less meaningful/culturally important music than Stevie was doing in the 70s, but she is nevertheless an absolute world-class talent vocally.
Stevie doesn't do much recording anymore but he apparently really loved/aligned with the message of the song and the movie, and thus agreed to do the tune. And we're all better off for it!
Like a lot of modern movie soundtracks, the mix is a bit weird and the bass is super buried in a lot of parts. I did my best to pull everything I could hear out, but I also added in guitar/horn parts where I'm pretty sure there was no bass, like the bridge, just for interest's sake. So, a bit of an arrangement here as opposed to a straight lift.
Enjoy, all!
