Why does Stevie wonder shake his head?

It's probably his way of enjoying the music physically. It likely keeps his other senses stimulated too. A lot of musicians do it, although not as much.

Edit:

Being blind his brain works different. The part of his brain that should have been used for sight is now being used for hearing. He has Very good hearing because of being blind. When sound waves from his voice or piano for instance, bounce off objects around him it let him see things with his ears. So just like bats Stevie Wonder has a sort of echo location ability. When he moves his head around it lets him triangulate the position sounds are coming from. Its as simple as that.

How tall is Iyaz?

In the Hannah Montana season 4-episode "Hannah's Gonna Got This" Iyaz is a gueststar in as himself. And when he standing beside Hannah (Miley Cyrus) and singing he look like approx 5 cm taller than her. And Miley is 5'5 (165 cm) so that makes Iyaz to 5'7 (170 cm) probably.

Actually I met Iyaz about a month ago at the Justin Bieber concert and I'm only 5'0"

and he was like maybe 2 inches taller then me if even that. he is deffinetley shorter then 5'7" which means miley is really short

Yeah um.. Like, NO WAY.. Miley is known to be 5'5 since she was 14 so she cante be shorter she can only be the same or might be even taller... so hush
