  • powerful and beautiful... and yes, it is definitely too short!

  • his hair...its so....perfectly round

  • Thank you Bill Withers......

  • It´s by far too short!!

  • He's so right, I say "I'm glad the old jive broad split, man!" all the time.

    Incredible song, one of my favourites.

  • this version should have 27 000 000 viewers. Not the other one...

  • Thats the coolest drummer ever!

  • Soooo True! ;o)

  • I listen to it when I want to cry my eyes out.

  • Awesome !

  • 87 people don't have any emotion or taste in music.

  • good song 

  • That drummer knows what's up. He knows.

  • @SoWachuWan They say Withers forgot the lyrics so he had to say "i know" 26 times till words came back.They say.

  • @SECTTOR Nah I meant, this guy got the groove.

  • Is Bill Withers GAY? He is on youtube tuesday's feauring gay musicians.

  • Love this

  • Smooth and from a place within where songs aren't written any longer. Thanks Bill. Rk

  • What a smooth voice brings back memories of my youth. The songs in the 70's always had a message.

  • All time classic.

Wish I still had my long hair,bell bottoms,shoes with the 4 inch soles,paisley shirt with bell sleeves and 5 inch cuffs,peace sign hangin round my neck and a big hard on for just being cool.The early 70s, ahh it was beautiful man.

  • Awesome!

  • Go to pal the pug videos

  • Look at pal the pug videos y'all

  • it's always gonna be a great song

  • With all of our "progress" since 1972, can talent like this still exist? I mean, seriously, is it even possible for this caliber of singer/songwriter/musician to get together with other talented musicians who play real instruments anymore - to make music that will last forever? We don't need a lot of flash, or a multi-million dollar stage show, or an artsy video, or bling, or dance remixes. Just work hard at becoming a great musician, then make it look easy like these guys did. Too much to ask?

  • @The1972drummer It is all this instant gratification and participation trophy bulls*** .

  • @The1972drummer I soooo get what your saying. It's very rare that an artest comes along today and has real talent, musicaly. Pop, country, rock, and rap just dont realy have anyone thats really the total package anymore. It is all autotuned to perfection. Nothing is real like this.

  • @The1972drummer so true.... this is true talent and they just dont do it like this anymore!

  • love Bills voice

  • Zimbabwe b.o.b.
