Recommended Posts

definitely a classic

From Wikipedia:

On June 9, 2005, Withers was inducted into the Songwriters' Hall of Fame alongside David Porter, Isaac Hayes, Steve Cropper, Robert B. Sherman, Richard M. Sherman and John Fogerty.

[edit]Songs in popular culture

To this day, his most popular songs, including "Use Me", "Lovely Day," "Lean On Me", "Just the Two of Us" and "Ain't No Sunshine," have been used in television advertisements, thereby increasing his popularity. Some of his songs, particularly "Lean on Me", have been performed often in churches because of their lyrics about spiritual topics or people uniting. "Lean on Me" was actually inspired by the church hymns Withers listened to when he was growing up in Slab Fork.

      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
