if there is a load you have to bear,that you cant carry. just call me. absolutely beautiful. we all suffer pain and loss in our life. may god give you the strenghth to carry on.
Finally. The original good classic version. I have been looking for this for so long. The other versions by glee and mitch musso are shit compared to this.
I cry because I was born in 92 and missed the best eras of music 60s to 80s. I get made fun of for loving this music. Todays music is crap they think Lady Gaga is great shes not even a patch on Bill withers ass
@TheNorthernSoulKing omg...you didn't "miss" anything. You have everything available at your fingertips. You only missed the good music of the 60's to 80's if you died before the 60's....think about it :)
@zayarummm Thats true I mean I cant go to clubs and dance to this kinda of music and the people were more respectable back than if you go up to someone and say hi today they look at you funny
@TheNorthernSoulKing there no shame to have for loving real music. Artists like this didnt need to show up their ass to get recognition and fans. Music was more important than video, nowadays visual and scadals are more important than talent...thats lame...i didnt know this era either as I m born in the 80's, but I love it too.
WHen I hear this song, I think of Pella and Richard, along with the Brothers, slaughtering an army of guards in a dark, dank prison under a enormous city, whilst Benny plays the lute
my music teacher said he didn't sing very good, and that he needed help singing. i waz thinking, wat the crap is she talkin about?! (thumbs up if u wud of said the same thing)
Hahahaha! This just shows that so many people have NO LIVES! If you have nothing better to do than talk shit to other people on a YouTube video comment, you may want to reevaluate your life. Sick song bro, thanks for posting and Merry Christmas bitches!!!
Youtube seriously depresses me sometimes. It's like no one even pays attention to the videos they're trolling these days. Could we at least keep the trolling to the idiotic cat/baby/other sickening cute videos, and just abide by the rocking tunes of Mr. Withers?
Hay, u guys cool it ok? U don't need to be saying that kind of stuff on this kind of video. Yea u can say what u want. But do u need to say it that rudely? Dude. Not even Kool at all! Ok. I'm just tryin to say, don't use that rude language on this video or any video on YouTube or ANYWHERE at all for that mater. If you watch these kind of soul music songs, I expect better from you people.
@ClublandProductions who cares what u heard in 1999? why r u faggot ass young kids always sauin i heard s in so and i was this age and the yr was '97 or 2001 or sum blah blah
@ClublandProductions nigga i dont care who u r. u r a nobody, u r a peon, u r a non entity, you are the epitome of irrelevence. ill slap the cavities out ur ur mouth muthafucker
@anotherD3MISE Hey, you obviously started this nonsense, stop turning this comment page into a black wall. so apologize and stop being a hater. The kid did nothing wrong to you. Dont let your perspective get the better of you.
@DopeBoysClan If you were ever down and out you would understand when someone did exactly what he is singing about for you. 66 year old white guy with a tear in his eye. I hope someone will be there for you
Either that or they had a parent that would occasionally get drunk and belt it out in the way drunks do. My mom used to do the same thing with Paradise By the Dashboard Light and it was a couple years after she died before I grew to like the song again, now it's one of my best memories....funny how that works isn't it?
i sang this song for my teachers husbends funerel. she coudnt come so we video taped it for her. we did it on december 10.the sad part is that he died a day before his annaversary.; (. i miss you mr.williams! god bless you!: ) we love you
i remember when i was young at my older brother's fifth grade graduation he sang this song....it made me cry and i was 4...i thought he was singing to me
Man, it has been a looong time since I last heard this song performed by Bill Withers...I got kinda choked up. It's great to hear this again! THANK YOU for posting this.
