Ain't No Sunshine (Bill Withers cover)

[Ella]

Hello!  Kari keeps telling me that I should play guitar more. I haven't been playing it for years. Well, I wanted to try to do this song I have always loved. I played one guitar-track onto MBR and sang three voice-tracks. Kari mixed and mastered it.
 I don't know who Bill Withers is missing about on this song but I'm thinking about my three sons who are growing up. The youngest is still living with me but not very long time anymore. So, I have to let them go for it's not so easy.

Thanks for listening. 

Recorded on Micro BR and trimmed on Audacity
Guitar track played on Yamaha G225 (from early 80's)

Thank you all!  Nice to hear that you find there was something new in my version. This song has been made so many times. I'm so glad that with Kari I've found this website. This is so interesting and also improving. I only hope that I could have more time to this and music overall.

Beautiful interpretation of a classic, Ella - absolutely love your vocals and the delicately plucked guitar. Full of feeling.
