Bill Withers and Radiohead side by side. Two impossible to join but perfect artists. Quite extraordinary. Superb on both counts.

Maybe the lateness of the hour Makes me seem bluer than I am But in my heart there is a shower I hope she'll be happier with him Maybe the darkness of the hour Makes me seem lonelier than I am But over the darkness I have no power Hope she'll be happier with him I can't believe that she don't wanna see me We lived and loved with each other so long I never thought that she really would leave me But she's gone Maybe the lateness of the hour Makes me seem bluer than I am But in my heart there is a shower Hope she'll be happier with him

[@jacobbrown760]

“Watta transition, fuck, I loved it” 👏

[@goldensilverback952]

Great job my friend. Best I have heard. Most don't realize how easy Bill made it look. You raise the bar and I am quite sure Mr. Withers would be so very proud of the justice you did to his song. I hope this video stays out there forever. Cheers from Maui.

Savion S, I thought Radiohead inspired Radio Silence, they wrote it.

[@kathyhollenbach7413]

Never mind my last comment. Radiohead did No alarms and No Surpprises. Not Radio Silence.

[@maxwelltomlinson704]

Bill Withers is performing a monologue style performance in his version, the range in his singing delivers the emotion and soul its why the musical arrangements is so simple and passive. This is not that .
