Stevie Wonder was asked about retirement. He gave a clear answer.

The Oscar-winning songwriter of "I Just Called to Say I Love You" turned 75 in May. In a recent interview, Stevie Wonder revealed that despite his advanced age, he has no intention of ending his incredibly successful career. The legendary singer emphasized that he plans to continue creating until his final days. "As long as you're breathing, as long as your heart is beating, you still have a lot to accomplish," the 25-time Grammy winner noted.

Stevie Wonder is undoubtedly one of the most iconic figures in the music industry. Over the years, the artist has released a number of cult hits, such as "Superstition," "Isn't She Lovely? ", and the ballad "I Just Called to Say I Love You," written for the film "The Woman in Red," for which the star won an Oscar and a Golden Globe in 1985. He also has 25 Grammy Awards and 74 nominations for this prestigious award.

While appearing on the BBC podcast "Sidetracked with Annie and Nick," the 75-year-old Wonder announced that despite his advanced age, he has no intention of ending his incredibly successful career , during which he has sold over 100 million records. The legendary singer revealed that he plans to continue his artistic endeavors until his final days.

" As long as you're breathing, as long as your heart is beating, you still have a lot to do. I won't stop the gift that keeps flowing through my body—just like a cartoonist won't stop drawing. You just keep moving forward. As long as you can use your imagination, as long as you're creative and let your mind work, you don't have to retire," explained the legendary singer.

He added that creating music and performing in front of an audience is what drives him and brings him the greatest satisfaction.

"I love playing music, that's my mantra. Singing is like taking another breath for me. I love what I do," said Wonder, who is currently preparing for more performances on his ongoing "Sing Your Song! As We Fix Our Nation's Broken Heart" tour.

Upcoming concerts will take place in Pittsburgh, New York, and Atlanta, among others.

Rumors recently began circulating online that Wonder, who lost his sight due to postpartum complications, was actually… pretending to be blind . The artist commented on these absurd reports during a recent concert in Wales.

"You know the truth. And the truth is that shortly after birth, I lost my sight. This turned out to be a blessing, because it allowed me to see the world from a perspective of truth. To see people's souls, not their appearances," the singer confessed.
