[brian2189114]

Why can't more songs of today actually MEAN SOMETHING!!! I tired of "Baby" and "California Girls"!!

[TobyJoelCornish1234]

@LUVable1500 awkward because it only has 1,099,141 views hahahaha /:

[akaikutsuhaita]

I don't speak English.

Oh yeah.

[Marceki111]

Oh, and the piano intro goes like this (all chords): C----C-D-E-F----F-E-D-C---C-D-­E-E---D--- (2x, second time the ending is C-D-E-B---C---)

Play that for the intro and verses, then for the chorus hold a C chord for 12 bars like this:

Play....hold

Play....hold

Play....hold

Then play the second ending of the intro and repeat, then play another verse+chorus pair...

Then the outro is simply Dm---C--- (as many times as heard on the video)

[Marceki111]

Finally YouTube put the audio back in (when I wanted to watch it a few months ago it had the audio muted due to copyright infringement.)

I'm just here because of an oldies radio station. It seems like a respectable way to rediscover a song.

[vjessa]

@oralboytoy Hey, me too



[bass4onelastfriday]

For this song in particular NOTHING other than your basic knowledge of the masterpieces of 20th century music should "bring you here." If you did not know about this song until recently, what kind of life are you living?

[titiroxx1909]

ok every time i type in bill withers lean on me every video is the temptations. this isnt bill withers. type in the temptations lean on me and click on the first video. they are exactly the same. this is the temptations

[cryanvoslion]

@titiroxx1909 no this isnt the temptations the temptations have never made an album in which lean on me has been recorded this is clearly bill withers you piece of shit

[brelee20]

I wish more music like this was made this days instead of the bullcrap we hear on the radio :/...greates song ever!!!

[glennmooreable]

this is some of the greatest music of all time. this music really reaches into youre heart and soul.this is music written from the heart

[piratesbooty100]

i love this song!!!

[Zachdudeio2]

I'll carry YOUR load

[poetryselite]

Conscious music is 'MUSIC'... nobody sound than hearin a true musician speak about the things we need to hear more than ever. And this right here is the BIGGEST difference between legends and non-talented musicians... the fact that no matter how old a song or rendition gets, it'll always be relevant and increase in value like an antique piece. Respect to the legendary Bill Withers.

[kai9954]

42 people wont swallow there pride

[aufan1997]

I love this song. Best dang song ever

[jareth312]

My favourite part was "call me" :3

[Xlongliverock1969]

[NaomiGower]

[TheArcheroflight]

@NaomiGower Awwww :( how did you loose him?

[NaomiGower]

@TheArcheroflight Cancer. We caught it too late.

[lcrs50]

:)

i know i keep saying not to fight on line, but sometimes it makes me feel better to see people fighting about stuff, like who can spell better, who makes the best videos, politics and stuff. it makes me feel that even thought stuff keeps changing at least this stuff never changes.

this song makes me think of my family members who are going throught a tuff time right now. i hope the know that they got family members they can lean on.

and yess, 10 and 11 year olds can spell better than us.

[Insanity616]

So I know y'all probably don't know this but a while back I posted a comment about a boy I liked and how his father died and how sad it was making him. I just wanted to say that, well we're dating now :) and... I kinda like to think I make him happy :)

[Beast61611]

Good song completely love an adore it <3333

[Beast61611]

Good song .... (: Completly love an adire the song !! <3333

[TheArcheroflight]

.....I always listen to this when i lose somebody who i loved dearly...like when i lost my nana over summer break....and when Christmas came...i couldn't stand to not cry....so i just went to my room and cried, then my brother made me feel better :)

[bobalinajoe123]

@TheArcheroflight Awww! Nice brother! :) Sorry 4 ur loss! So many losses! :(

[TheArcheroflight]

@bobalinajoe123 Yeah he really does help me allot...i don't know what i would do with out him ^-^

[bobalinajoe123]

WHY does this song have dislikes?!?! They must have mistook it for the "Love" button!

[bobalinajoe123]

:'( I love this song it reminds me of my old nanny who died but she was like a second mom to me and that even though there is so much badness and hurt in the world, there will ALWAYS be good and good people, you just need to search for them. :) Thank you fellow good people of the world, for being there. I consider myself a good person but even good people need "Somebody to lean on" :) Thanks to those strong people who we can lean on. When you need, we will be there for you.

[LePoorlyDrawnName]

40 people's ears need corrective surgery.

[bigfootskitty]

"Saint Bill Whithers". there is A lot of folks livin' by those great and wise (yet so simple, all can understand) words. God bless you too Bill, And thanks for thinking of someone besides yourself. you're giving strength to carry on to people you've never met! now that is A BIG and SELFLESS MAN I'd like to meet! Fortunately, I believe we have A friend in common. See you at the hem of his robe!

[haleydb38]

everyone goes through tough times at some point in their lives and it is always good to know that you have someone to turn to when things get hard to handle on your own. thats why it is good to be there for other people too, because what goes around comes around and you never know when you might need a friend to lean on. when i was in choir everyone would just randomly burst out singing this song as we lined up at the door... ahh, good times :)

[videowatcher1997m]

this is so fitting to the current situation <3

When my parents got divorceed when I was 5. On the way down to my dad's house my dad and I would sing this 2 each other. Only being 5 and knowing the words my dad was surprised. So when this song comes on now. It makes me cry knowing that we aren't close anymore and that I feel like I cant lean on him. But I will always sing this song and love it. :)
