ONE
One SONG can spark a moment
One FLOWER can wake the dream
One TREE can start a forest
One BIRD can herald spring
One SMILE begins a friendship
One HANDCLASP lifts a soul
One STAR can guide a ship at sea
One WORD can frame the goal
One VOTE can change a nation
One SUNBEAM lights a room
One CANDLE wipes out darkness
One LAUGH will conquer gloom
One STEP must start each journey
One WORD must start a prayer
One HOPE will raise our spirits
One TOUCH can show you care
One VOICE can speak with wisdom
One HEART can know what is true
One LIFE can make a difference
You see it's up to you!

Bill Withers' classic has almost certainly sparked a mini friendship revolution!!!
Michael Jackson (1958-2009) covered Bill Withers' Ain't No Sunshine back in 1972. Requiescat in pace MJJ! I miss you!

Watch the version recorded with my son's mobile phone (Bill Withers' Lean On Me - Piano/Keyboards) - it was whacked out for quick upload just minutes after this on 05 February 2007 - the day before my son's first flying lesson! (See 'My son's First Flying Lesson' uploaded on 10th April 2007)If I sound sleepy at the end that's because I WAS VERY SLEEPY!!!
The caption for that video again:

One of these days I will upload a more recent performance. I love this song, it was what inspired me to learn the keyboard / piano!
Sleep in the arms of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ until we meet at the Resurrection! Sleep tight my beloved! I am still in shock, but I know you'll want those who loved you to live on and remember you.
Please fans, don't despair. As long as you live, you can tell others about this wonderful life, and he will not be gone. We still have his wonderful music.
hahah

You play far better than most I have heard.
