This time I've made a cover of a Bill Whiters song called "Ain't No Sunshine".

Lyrics:

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

And I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know,
Hey, I oughtta leave young thing alone
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away...

Thanks thanks!! im glad to hear that

Looking forward to your next one! Do you also know the song Use me by Bill Withers?

Joe, this was so cool, man! But the week #61 contest has closed out as of this past Friday... this new entry of yours needs to be dropped into the upcoming Sunday announcement/commencement of week #62, brotha!....

PS...

As an aside - does anyone know exactly how many times brother Bill say's (I, know, I know, I know etc....) well, it's 26 times (officially) in case anyone was wondering... haha!

'Thank you bro. I just need to edit the title, right?

Yeah, and if you can edit the intro somehow, perhaps @luzcypher will grant you access to Sunday's contest once he officially post's it... Either way, Nice job, Joe!

Wow thanks!

i really enjoyed this. love the sound of the playing and the singing right in with the feel, great tone. loved it thanks so much

Like a lot of lyrics. Excellent your talents. thanks for giving us

Hi Eliass! Thanks for commenting

you are welcome invited by @eliashossain

Sounds great! Please try to get your entry in by Friday next time. Thanks

  • The cutoff date for entries is Friday. The contest begins on Sunday and ends on Friday.

Judges have already picked and posted their top picks so you posting this late only hurts you. I'll add it into the cue this week and I hope we hear more from you.
