"With A Song In My Heart" is a 1963 album by Stevie Wonder on the Tamla (Motown) label. The album was the first to drop Wonder's Little moniker as the 13-year-old singer went the same route of his label mate Marvin Gaye and covered a set of standards. Like Gaye and other Motown acts, label president Berry Gordy wanted all of his artists to be established on a crossover basis. The album didn't immediately spell success for Wonder on the adult contemporary set as of yet.
