We need this song more than ever right now. RIP Mr. Withers.
We love you Mr. Withers our dear unifying strong brother 🙏🏼✨💜
Tennicesha Thompson best song 👍🥰
Agreed. Soul, funk and R&B has really been lifting my spirits thru all this. I was listening to Bill this morning and then saw the news while at work :(
Metaphorically 😂
Of course! We will get through this. RIP BW.
Only his body is gone. He left us his soul in his music.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@sup Yeshualover he ain't in heaven
Totally agree!!
@@michaelcolbourn6719 Brother, life is short. Enjoy his legacy instead of spreading negativity 🙏
@@willsmith238 just saying
I lost my dad a decade ago, when I watched this. I couldn't help but break down. He was my hero, still is. He took a part of me when he went home the day God called him home. I will always miss him.
🙏🏾 🙏🏾
My dad passed 18th February this year hun xxx
@@claireryan2641 I am so sooorry to hear know that, strongs for what you went through. We never heal from loosing a parent we just learn how to leave without them. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
It's a prayer for all of us. Just call him in faith even if he is gone, he will be there to lean on
I lost my dad six years ago when I was 11, and this song and performance definitely made me feel the same way. Now I’m turning 18 in a couple months and I miss him more than ever in my transition to adulthood. This gets a lump in my throat every time, love it 🙏
Stevie Wonder opened up and it literally brought me to tears. People these days just can't compete with that. Absolutely legendary
When we lose an artist, we don’t cry because we knew them personally.
We cry because they helped us know ourselves.
Every person listening to this has leaned on Bill Withers. #RIPBillWithers
Beautifully put
Amen
That is very well said.
Lawrence Bisagni so true!!
You got that right bro.
It is just me? or Bill Withers and John Legend look like father and son!
Leo Guevara bill looked nothing like him when he was young! Smh legend can’t sing, he’s anything but a legend
@@ubself Obviously you didn't get the point of my comment. I'm not comparing these two gentlemen.
For me Bill Withers is Unique, a real legend i love his music. And on the other side; i don't like John Legend at all (no disrespect to his fans).
I just made a simple comment cause I really dee some resemblance.
Genevieve Hansen you know id actually have to disagree. I think John legend has a great voice. And with someone like myself who studied music and takes vocal lessons his voice is phenomenal you just don’t understand music.
I just said the same thing, 2 weeks after you wrote your comment, but before I saw your comment!🤣🤣🤣
Maybe we don't know what happened 40 years ago...
Is it weird that I love John Legend singing other musicians' song more than I like listening to his own songs?
Sure you're really right thanks for your compliment and understanding God bless you please can we be friends
I feel like everyone listening to this has leaned on bill withers throughout a point in their lives whether that be through the hard times or the happy times
we do love you bill
rip
So true!
Such an incredible songwriter and that voice 😩 left such a gift to the world
That is a beautiful way of thinking of it - I certainly have, more times than I can count. Thanks for posting this
I'm glad he got his flowers while he was alive!!
@glynn colwell/Yes!!😪😥....So glad!!
glynn colwell yes!
I'm in tears. RIP and fly high! You will be missed by the world and everyone will be calling you to lean on in prayers, especially during this pandemic. Such a sweet man and kind soul, even though I'm only 28 I've been listening to your music since I was 10. I loved every song. This breaks my heart. We love you!
Me too it's hitting me
We really miss this great music talent. It's time to lean on each other for help & the Lord will greatly bless us.😔
Kels Michelle RIP best song 👍
RIP Bill Withers We will get through this!
Those are such lovely words Kels ...Beautiful lyrics by someone who is so sentimental, passionate and humble. As a older person, I too, love this song as it expounds what is so important in life which is giving of oneself for whatever reason and thinking of others. Bill may have been a private man but he saw the virtues of sharing and the beauty that surrounds us that we sometimes choose not to see.
This is so beautiful. Made me miss my dad
They have a wonderful voice I love listening to them.. sorry for the loss where are you listening from
This mans song made my dad cry. He had a horrible life and this sing helped my dad so much R.I.P he was a special man bill withers if you hear me. Thank you.
Oh... Same here his song has not made only your dad cry he has made us cry all around the world 🌎 because I have lost everything in life but when I listen to this song I found the energy to overcome all that I have lost and start of over again
if ever there was an anthem for 2020...proof that truly great music is always timeless and timely. RIP to one of the true greats.
You said it the best
R.I.P BILL WITHERS
God bless you
Two legends standing next to each other, with Stevie Wonder, a legend also in his own right. This can’t get any better. Even if you don’t like them, the respect is definitely needed
It's kinda nice seeing the two R&B legends singing a duet and meeting each other
Stevie the biggest legend here
By a loong mile steve wonder is the best Male singer and songwriter
@@jrgenlinnerud8103 nonsense, no one is better than all others by a long mile
@@jrgenlinnerud8103 My all time favorite. I still listen to all of Stevie's music. I have been a fan since "Fingertips". Stevie is one of those artists I can listen to all day and never get tired of hearing his voice, music and messages.💛
To me this is by far the best version of the song just by the way John starts it off and everytime I think of the song his voice rings loudly in my ear ❤
2:13 This man was 65 and was singing like that. Legend.
Only Stevie Wonder can take a relatively low song and make it go a thousand octaves higher. hahaha.
@@kitrodriguez992 and still make it sound fucking amazing
Iam Vickers I need call all
I am hurting I need amazing grace now
Indeed. This man is really strong and I also admire that he can stand on the large stage and sing in front of the audiences
RIP from Asmara, Eritrea.
Himbol where is that located?
@@no1nestandsalone387 Horn of Africa. It’s Neighbors with Ethiopia
no1nestandsalone how can you not know that? they destroyed italy several times before the war
@@GrumpyStormtrooper Ethiopia defeated Italy twice. It's not Eritrea.
Atnatewos Bekalu yeah you're right i got confused. but the campaign to eritrea still was successful, but with a ton of sacrifices. also there was some kind of misunderstanding in the treaty of Uccialli, italy thought they had the good part of the deal, when in the translation it seemed otherwise.
My cousin passed away in February of this year, and Bill Withers was his favourite artist. It makes me very happy knowing he never had to live in a world where Bill wasn’t around
Love You. Bill Withers..A Global Legend
... Nigeria really need this now, civil unrest, political instability, religious violence... God save Nigeria
Bill Withers passed away on March 30th, 2020 at the age 81 {heart failure}...
Between 1971 and 1985 the Slab Fork, West Virginia native had twenty three records on Billboard's Hot Soul Singles chart, seven made the Top 10 with one reaching #1, "Lean On Me", for one week in June of 1972...
Three of his twenty three charted records were duets, one each with Bobby Womack {"It's All Over Now", #68 in 1975}, Grover Washington, Jr., {"Just The Two of Us", #3 in 1981} and Ralph McDonald {"In The Name of Love", #13 in 1984}...
Besides "Lean On Me", his six other Top 10 records were "Ain't No Sunshine" {#6 in 1971}, "Use Me" {#2 in 1972}, "Make Love Your Thing" {#10 in 1975}, "Lovely Day" {#6 in 1977}, the above "Just The Two of Us", and the above "In The Name of Love"...
May he R.I.P.
THANK u. Thank u.
Man
Sad.... if you guys need some one to lean on then lean on Jesus ❤ I know the world is chaotic right now and a lot of people are scared and without hope .. but there's hope in Jesus ❤ God can transform you into a new creature with his love. 2 Corinthians 5:17 therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away, behold; all things are become new. If God can save a wretch like me then he can save u too! Accept Jesus as your savior today and be born again 💓he loves u so much!!!!!!
@@lovemesumjesus7276 I need prayer.....I want to quit because of fear of success and I need faith to conquer my fear
@@blessedandfavored9242 praying for u beloved!!!!
When I was was a boy.....the radio was nonstop
Bill, stevie Marvin Aretha James Gladys roberta donny, spinners , war, Ohio players, ojays.....to name a very few
I mean it was relentless. ..I'm so lucky...
jimiclemente1 using their first names! You’re so fucking cool!
You are right, I remember it well. I'm from Texas and NOBODY had air conditioning in those early days. While you were out playing, you heard this music wafting out of the windows of almost every house you passed by. (You also smelled whatever that family was having for dinner____shout out to FRIED CHICKEN!). If they had the radio on, here's the call letters we would hear in Texas: WLAC from Nashville Tenn, WNOE from New Orleans, WOAI from San Antonio, and the mighty KOKA_____K.O.K.A. in Shreveport Louisiana. These stations broadcast signal would reach us in East Texas, and we heard every one of those artists and dozens more ALL THE TIME. sadly, we had no idea this would change. If we did, we would have stopped it.
OMG, you took me there. Real music, real performers, music that we allllllllllllll was able to relate to in one way or another. I tell you we are losing them. Whose going to carry the torch? This mess they call music now. SMH! Young people you better grab hold and get with the real "PERFORMING ARTISTS."
Amen! Bill Withers and all those soul full groups will live forever! A most remarkable time in Music!
Yes indeed. Those were the days in Roxbury, Ma
Its one of his songs that goes straight to my heart and means a lot to me
Sure you're really right thanks for your compliment and understanding God bless you please can we be friends together
"Lean on me" best performance. All legends right here! Gave me the chiils.
RIP Mr. Withers 🕊🕯✝️❤️
Sure you're really right thanks for your compliment and understanding God bless you please can we be friends together
We know what John will look like at that age ....wow twins in my eyes
They really do favor truly.
I never noticed the resemblance before Omgoodness, they are definitely twins! LOL
NAW BILL WAS FINE AND.MANLY LOOKING. JUST LOOK STRONG SEXY
Was thinking the same lol
2:15 Stevie just went back in time with that run
SINGING OUT.... HOW LOVELY WAS BILL WITHERS?... FINE LIKE WINE⚘.. 🕊PEACE&LOVE🕊 AS ALWAYS🦋
Stevie coming through clutch like a true veteran.
His voice never left. He’s still got a crazy good voice
🙃
He's amazing!
How can everyone NOT love black people? They sing like ANGELS! RIP Bill, a truly great man.😔😢 Let this world be at peace we are all brothers and sisters. Love each other.
@Jim Boak ...
@Jim Boak that goes for all people Jim.
@Jim Boak so you’re just a racist? Okay no need for further conversation then
LEGENDS NEVER DIE, THEY LIVE ON FOREVER.
Hi beautiful, how are you doing today I hope everything is going absolutely perfect with you?
From Lean On Me to Ain’t No Sunshine, this man was an incredible music artist. His music got me through some tough and difficult times. You just can’t find music like that anymore, god bless him. Although he is gone his legacy and music lives on in all of us. RIP Bill Withers, you will be forever missed.
U can find some music like that. U just have to look hard enough ;)

Bill withers didn't die. the next realm needed this song to help them. he just moved.
John Legend looks like he could BE Wither's son or play him in a movie.
Stop it 😫
@@aliciag946 haha He'd have to get bulked up to play the young BW.
@@Rhythmicons He doesn't have the right facial features
@@aliciag946 He could have his mother's nose, not that shit matters in biopics.
Lowkey
Rip a true legend Mr. Withers. He will never be forgotten.
When Bill started to sing...it gave me chills.
I was listening to this when I a little boy 50 years ago and it's still brilliant 👏 👌
So very very beautiful. I’ve just posted it to my sister, who lost her beautiful daughter four weeks ago to cancer she just turned 54years this month 😢😢
*Fly high Bill Withers! Finding strength through this song in the middle of troubling times.🙏❤*
He was a man of god so he isn’t gone. I cant wait to meet him and heaven 😊 he has such a good soul

'Lean on me' is a song that also shows how much there's power in simplicity!
March 2024.
This song is timeless, like friends helping friends cope during hard times.
If you’re reading this, Michael, I’m here for you. 24/7/365. (366 this year, lol)
Bad week for musical legends: Kenny Rogers, Ellis Marsalis, now Bill Withers.
Reggae Icon Bob Andy as well
Really sad. I already miss them all. All my legends growing up- Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Kenny Rogers, Don Williams, George Michael, Bill Withers, Aretha Franklin. They all made me love music.
I didn't know Ellis Marsalis and Kenny Rogers died! All of the corona-shit?

Rest and peace Mr. Withers - your songs so fresh through all this year ... 🙌🏻
Rip sir. Legends never die
Don't be sad he died
Be thankful he was born
And that he shared his gift with us.
He’s the most known person why? Cause he is so good and was born nice
But your sad he died because you are thankful he was born so like...
Amen
Amen!
We in West Virginia sure do miss our fellow West Virginian Bill Withers. Rest in Peace.
R.I.P To the legend of all time....Love you Bill Withers. Prayers to your family and that you enjoy in the heavens above
When I was a young man, I would listen to Bill Wither's music and sip beers with my college friends. Now, I am a much older man and Bill just left us all for heaven. Rest well Bill, you left us with such a wonderful gift, your music. A bit of heaven on earth.
Well said Doug, it makes this journey through life so pleasurable, to have a little bit of escapism, and have memories of brilliant singers Bill in particular R.I.P. Mr Withers.
The amount of Love that he had when a society was ready to put him away and he ran like the care that he knew would capture a world . He was ahead of his time. A real in depth with all that was around him and he used it with just being him and noticed . He should be in a hall of fame for his art and it does not matter , that man will always be in mine for the music and the lyrics that he wrote.
Chills when Bill Withers comes forward and sings.
Look at the legend Bill Withers and John Legend up there looking like a powerful father and son duo 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I’m only 23 but I’ve been listening to his music for as long as I can remember. Legends never die.
No way can you get better than this performance!! Thank the Higher Power for Musicians like these MEN!!! Sharing their Amazing Talent with the World!!
Sure you're really right thanks for your compliment and understanding God bless you please can we be friends
John Legend always make me cry. Love from Haïti
I always teach this song to my students: we all need him and his precious songs.
May God receive him in His glory
I’m an American teacher living far from home, on my own and away from family and friends... this song is hopeful and heartbreaking right now.
Oh... I'm so sorry you are far away from home and friends but as long as you listen to this song you will always have someone to be there for you. Because a few years ago when I thought I lost everything this gives me courage to face my fears
I work in a school as a dinner man & I heard this song being played in the back room in the kitchen on the radio.
This reminds me of an angel singing this song every day at school. 😢
Rest in Peace, Bill Withers. Your songs would always inspire people and act as a reminder that they are not alone. Thank you.
I'm so glad that Mr. Withers lived to see his induction and this beautiful tribute. Rest In Power Bill Withers!
I sent this to a friend tonight just to let them know, “they can lean on me”. To everyone reading this, please consider doing the same. 💗
now I really can't stop crying. This is sooo beautiful ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you Bill Withers.
Sure you're really right thanks for your compliment and understanding God bless you please can we be friends together

Q
Rip bill withers
RIP 🙏
On my birthday it was really sad 😢 I grew up listening to this song for inspiration when ever I was down or me my bro was going through problems with nothing to eat at times
Nice job
A LEGENDARY tribute to one of the greatest music artists of all time.
R.I.P. Bill Withers we will all remember your amazing career and life in general. Thanks for being our light in this dark world
As a new soldier in Germany, I had big adjustments not only to being in the Army but also a new country. I was a perfectionist and always wanted to do everything right. That made me miserable and likely made those close to me miserable as well. I remember 4 young enlisted soldiers in my battery came into my room didn't say a word, began singing this song and didn't say anything afterwards and left. I sat there and enjoyed the song and was shocked and in awe of the whole message. This was a gift from them to me. I was more bearable and allowed myself to be more relaxed after that. Thank you, you know who you are!!!
Beautiful story.
That is some serious talent to share time with.
What a wonderful moment and memory!
Hi Susan
Sure you're really right thanks for your compliment and understanding God bless you please can we be friends
It's hard to get a message that can reach out to every person regardless of boundaries set by society but Bill Withers united the whole globe in 5 minutes 😖😖RIP to a legend
Sure you're really right thanks for your compliment and understanding God bless you please can we be friends together
I am glad to have him between the giants.
John Legend isn't a giant, because he has to earn it over time.
Bill Withers was the giant!
His legendary music lives on forever 🦅🇺🇲♥️ We will never forget you ♥️
I cry and I love.
From France, thanks you :!
This song deserves to be a global anthem.
Our Grandpa(Billy Withers) sitting there looking at his boys singing .
We lost a musical genius in the 𝓢𝓸𝓾𝓵 genre... but our mourning will be eased with the legacy of his whole 𝓢𝓸𝓾𝓵 in each of his songs.
So glad he got this recognition before he died.
Can we talk about how good Stevie still sounds at this age? And while he may not have much hair left on TOP, what he DOES have goes way down past the middle of his back.
Preach!
When will touch the heart of so many people one way or another make the feel-good with whatever we do God will always replace them before he takes them. I've always listened to his song ever since I was a kid and his voice and melody as always touch my heart and give me hope through life.
