"Ain't No Sunshine" was a top 10 R&B and top three Hot 100 hit for Bill Withers in 1971. Amazing song. I love that the famous second verse was adlibbed, with Bill originally intending to write more in its place later. This was also one of those cases where the hit was originally a b-side.

Gorgeous. It's got such an atmosphere to it, and it's one of those songs you just enjoy singing.

Really love this song! The vocal arrangement is so soulful and the music is beautiful.
Guy Sebastian and Keith Urban did a live cover of it that I loved. I'm sure the video is still on YouTube somewhere
