BILL WITHERS - Use Me REACTION

[@tomcollens4621]

One of those iconic songs. Does not get better than this!

[@josiepkat]

OMG I LOVE Bill WIthers! He was such an amazing person too. At the time this song was written he was married to a pretty actress who was on tv (I think Room 222?) and that marriage didn't last, he wasn't the Hollywood type - and I believe this song is about her - but look it up. This is SUCH a great song. I had a crush on Withers for many years - he left the music biz at the height of his fame to be with his wife and kids. Very romantic. A good guy. There was a good documentary about him in 2009 called Still Bill - well worth seeing!!! Grandma's Hands, Just the Two of Us, Ain't No Sunshine.. etc. GREAT reaction!!!!

James Gadson on drums. Really entertaining just to watch him play. In his 80s now.

[@francisedwards4069]

There is a live version of this song from the time it was released and you see the drummer at work

[@hoopjo12345]

That song is a banger😊😊

You should also listen to Aaron Neville's version of Use Me. Aaron's version is a little more New Orleans. Both are equally amazing.

More Bill Withers: "Grandma's Hands", "Who is He (And What is He to You)?", "Kissing My Love", and, "Lovely Day" .

Who is He is a great song. I have to go listen to that now. I haven't for quite a while.

[@stevendunlap503]

You should also listen to the Main Ingredients everybody plays the fool.

[@tapduff]

You gotta check out the live version!!! SOOO......good!

Well, I'm one of those people who have never heard this song. I am, of course familiar with Bill Withers though. Amazing vocals. Thank you.

[@realbser1956]

This one snuck by you Cindy? Glad you can get to hear it now. A great song.

[@cindyfalstrom7231]

@@realbser1956 Quite a bit has snuck by me over the years. Grateful for reactors as they either introduce or remind me of great music.

[@realbser1956]

Cindy, I’m sorry to hear about John Mayall today. I know you are a big fan of his. He will be missed. 🙏

[@cindyfalstrom7231]

@@realbser1956 Thanks for thinking of me. Yes I am a huge fan of British blues/rock. Sad to lose Mayall, but he was 90, and was certainly able to look back on his contributions with satifaction. My favorite Bluesbreakers song is "Supernatural" because of the amazing guitar solo of another of my favorites, Peter Green. I wonder if Chod has covered this song, I should have looked, but I kind of doubt it as it's perhaps too obscure. Perhaps I should request it, but probably won't. Don't do that much anymore. Cheers ✌

Jose Feliciano does a version of this song that is smokin' hot. I remember many years ago he sang it on the Mike Douglas Show when he was the guest host for a week. All these years later I still haven't forgotten it

[@AP-gb3eh]

Great album, this has been on my playlist since it came out

[@larrybrantley8835]

Find this song (and others by him) live with lyrics. (Ain't No Sunshine since She's Gone and more).

[@ellerootz6702]

Classic

[@johnnyd5285]

You used to brag that you didn’t interrupt your videos, wow how times have changed.

[@realbser1956]

I think he had issues with copyright strikes and the channel was taken down for months. He was in YT jail so now he needs to stop but I agree he probably does not need to stop as often as he is doing.

[@johnnyd5285]

@@realbser1956 Well, if that’s the case I apologize. Did not realize that.

[@josiepkat]

@@johnnyd5285 Yeah. He did. That's why he was gone for a while.

[@caedmon232]

He's talking about making airplane toilet seats. For real.

[@robertschiavone5159]

Check out Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone

[@bangmon1000]

Are you going to change this channel title back to Wilburn Reactions, since you mentioned it in your intro?

[@TyroneJohnson-m4m]

Where is your Motown, O'jays, Stylistics, Spinners, Stevie Wonder, Luther???!!!!
