” “Lovely Day” and “Ain’t No Sunshine,” has died from heart complications, his family said in a statement to The Associated Press. He was 81.
Withers’ songs during his brief career have become the soundtracks of countless engagements, weddings and backyard parties. They have powerful melodies and perfect grooves melded with a smooth voice that conveys honesty and complex emotions without vocal acrobatics. Withers, who overcame a childhood stutter, was born the last of six children in the coal mining town of Slab Fork, West Virginia. After his parents divorced when he was 3, Withers was raised by his mother’s family in nearby Beckley.
“Ain’t No Sunshine” was originally released as the B-side of his debut single, “Harlem.” But radio DJs flipped the disc and the song climbed to No. 3 on the Billboard charts and spent a total of 16 weeks in the top 40. But Withers’ career when Sussex Records went bankrupt and he was scooped up by Columbia Records. He no longer had complete control over his music and chaffed when it was suggested he do an Elvis cover. His new executives found Withers difficult.
He was awarded Grammys as a songwriter for “Ain’t No Sunshine” in 1971 and for “Just The Two Of Us” in 1981. In 1987, Bill received his ninth Grammy nomination and third Grammy as a songwriter for the re-recording of the 1972 hit “He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015 by Stevie Wonder. Withers thanked his wife as well as the R&B pioneers who helped his career like Ray Jackson, Al Bell and Booker T. Jones.
Oh, no, I didn't realized this. Love, love Bill. Thankful for him and his gifts which he shared with us. Making our lives all the better for it. His songs were soundtrack of our lives and always take me back to another special time/place. Much love R.I.P.
RIP Mr. Withers

'What few songs I wrote during my brief career, there ain't a genre that somebody didn't record them in. I'm not a virtuoso, but I was able to write songs that people could identify with. I don't think I've done bad for a guy from Slab Fork, West Virginia.' - Bill Withers
'Ain't No Sunshine' - one of the best songs ever written!
EstelleDarlings And I just started listening to Soul dang.
“Grandma Hands” Saved my life. Thank you, Mr. Withers
😭😭😭
“Use Me”. All timer!!

Those will continue to stand the test of time!
So very sad to hear this. I will be a fan always. Loved the music, loved the man. He will be missed in our hearts.
JaceLGalloway Fantastic singer, Navy man and only made one album.
Sad day indeed.
Anyone tried to hold the note for lovely day as long as he holds the note?
Mr. Bill Withers has left us...quite possibly the best songwriter of his generation. If you think Lean on Me and Lovely Day were his best work, take another look. He was so much more than that. His music stands the test of time. Ultimate Respect Due!
WOW!!! My husband and I were just singing 'ain't no sunshine when it rains' last night!!! R.I.P!!!

RIP 💔💔
Oh man, sad, . For those of us from the days of Soul, Motown, he was 'Big Bad Bill Withers'. I feel this, he was the man.
One of the first jazz tunes I heard learned was “Just The Two of Us,” on Grover Washington Jr.’s Winelight Album (a masterpiece by the way). Withers is anazing on it. Also, “Use Me,” is one of the all-time classics.
Great loss. Deepest condolences to Mr. Withers' loved ones. Thank you, Mr. Withers, for sharing your talent and your music with the world.
💔
We are losing our wonderful elders too quickly..😥
💜
Love both those songs. Sad.
A great one!
Rip Bill Withers
So sad
