Here is a piece of realness for you, we had a beautiful moment on the beach even with the cold, of course I had my guitar ready to play :D

It's recorded at the Cap de L'Homy where we took the kids for a road trip! I already knew that I would play "Ain't No Sunshine", because of the cloudy weather, I am a smart ass!

Bill Withers, is one of my favourite artist of all time, he had such a peculiar career, decided to stop being a singer in the later part of his life, there is a documentary about it, where he rekindle his love for music with musician/ artist Raul Midon, who also is specialized in handpicking guitar like I am.

I think Bill would like my version, even with the wind.

Ain't No Sunshine
Bill Withers
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's 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 oughta leave young thing alone
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone, woh woh
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
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away

Nice!

I like how the wind made the decision to fade herself out a little :)

Haha thanks for the compliment, you cracked me up. I guess it's the mark of a good musician to lower the intensity once the lead comes in 🤣

That's my favourite to date! Proper 'pop' video too...Trenchcoat, blowing hair, guitar on a beach and kids shouting in the background...very Betty Blue :-)
Have a great weekend :-)

Everyone else: Nice post!

@nathen007: Makes reference to an obscure French movie from the the 80s!

You're just saying Betty Blue because of my fucked up (French) teeth like Beatrice Dalle 😁? Or do you mean that my trenthcoat give you some erotic vibes, like I was a part of a romantic psychological thriller?

You know what!? I am going to own it haha, have a great weekend Nathen, jeez you can call me Betty now haha

And you can call me Al ;-)

Lol I never though about the teeth, but if the cap fits!...no it was the never ending beach shot like the sequence in the movie which is one of my all time favourites and the fact you're in France swung it for me lol

I shall now attempt to reference obscure classic French cinematic moments to every post you write ....ok so probably the next 4 posts as my knowledge will then be exhausted!

The cap fit indeed! Ok so now I see it too, these long shots a la Audiar. On the top of my head I have few other film noir references and also Emmanuelle 😁

Another favorite song of mine 😌 it matches your style so well! Or I'll say you made the song yours! 😎

Helooooo @littlebeatle how are you? Thanks, yeah it's the perfect song for baritone!

I'll go check what song you released, have a great day!

My my...the beach...the connection to the rest of the world....very beautiful environment...

Lovely cover...and the wind also sang really well too...lol

Hey doc! Yeah man as you said, sometimes things unfold on their own, a bit like I have no control, and it might be the best way to surrender to god's will!

The wind is such a good singer when it's cloudy hahah 😁 Cheers thanks for the comment again!

😊😊 hope you have a nice weekend!!! I'm abkut to edit my open mic post

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 you kill it every time. Also makes me miss my beach dwelling days!!!

Thanks my brother! Do they do beach in japan? Is it a thing?

They do but it's not so close to the city center and the train is crazy expensive. I think it costs about $25 roundtrip even though its an hour by subway. I mean I can afford it but it's certainly not an every day thing. I guess it could be an every week thing once I get all my shit together.

Thanks for the explanation, I never even thought of japanese girls in bikinis before, I have to change that.

lololol you do!

Such a classic! My favourite version is the one by Zakk Wylde. Yours is great tho! Nice work!

Oh yeah I love the one by Zakk Wylde! I also love the Jackson's version, with a beautiful modulation! Thanks for the comment my friend!

Nice one. Great version. I think that Bill would be pleased.
You're kids in the background are funny.

I like that jacket by the way. It cool.

If Bill is pleased, so do I!

You're kids in the background are funny

This is my wife's favourite video because of that.

I like that jacket by the way. It cool.

Thanks mate, I am about to buy one similar when we go to Toulouse, I think the style would suit you too!

Good luck finding finding a new one! Maybe I'll keep an eye out for one myself.

Zara, or H&M. Not too crazy, between 100 and 200 I guess, maybe less!

Un asno muy listo Jajaja qué hermoso, hermano... ¡Qué agradable momento!

¡Gracias hermano! Te extrañamos en HIve, ¡bienvenido de nuevo! ¡Gran último video!

Yoyo brother @hivebuzz, I hope you're doing good!

I remember first time I heard this song on a dance competition where a girl and boy prepared to dance with this song and from that time I liked this song. It really has a special vibe and you performed it perfectly man 🙂 great job on video again! \m/

That's an interesting story my brother, I wonder what type of dance it was, thanks for the nice comment David, we're glad to have you back!

Beautiful! What a voice!

Thanks Strider! Is your name because of LOTR?

Another piece of exceptional brother art, I love the voice you have.

Thanks so much for your comment, I truly appreciate, I hope you are doing well!

Oh my, that made me smile. You have an old soul Ed, just so cool, I remember that song from way back.
Bill Withers seemed to come and go, but that song really touches the heart .
I listen and think, how did I get so lucky? I have a man that truly misses me when I jet off to visit friends or family, always giving me my space. I hope you find that richness in your wife and family.
It truly is a gift.
I love your smile and also the kids calling mama, great performance, wind and all.
Peace to you.

Thanks for the "old soul" reference, I've heard this expression a few times by now, and it's a code a can live by 🙃
I feel the same way that you do, I sometimes feel that I must be in heaven without even knowing it!
I am truly happy that you enjoyed the moment with us, you can imagine that there were no second take 😄

Peace and blessings up on you too my friend, and to your loved one!
