Bill Withers – The Artist

Bill Withers (William Harrison Withers Jr. (1938 – 2020)  is an American soul/funk singer-songwriter and musician who performed and recorded from 1970 until 1985. He recorded several major hits, including Ain’t No Sunshine, and Lovely Day.

Lean On Me  – The Song

“Lean On Me” a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter Bill Withers. It was released in 1972 as the first single from his second album, Still Bill. It was his only number one single. Bill Withers’ childhood in the coal mining town of Slab Fork, West Virginia, was the inspiration for “Lean on Me”, which he wrote after he had moved to Los Angeles and found himself missing the strong community ethic of his hometown. The song is frequently played at charity events. “Lean on Me” has been interpreted by various other artists including Mud (1976), Tina Turner, (1984), Al Jarreau (1985), DC Talk (1992), Michael Bolton (1993) and Bonnie Tyler (1999).

Snoopy & Woodstock – The Shape

Snoopy the loveable beagle dog and Woodstock the bird are two of the characters from the strip cartoon Peanuts. Peanuts is a syndicated daily and Sunday American comic strip written and illustrated by Charles M. Schulz that ran from1950, to 2000, continuing in reruns afterward. Peanuts is among the most popular and influential in the history of comic strips, with 17,897 strips published in all, making it “arguably the longest story ever told by one human being”. At its peak in the mid- to late 1960s, Peanuts ran in over 2,600 newspapers, with a readership of around 355 million in 75 countries, and was translated into 21 languages. It helped to cement the four-panel gag strip as the standard in the United States, and together with its merchandise earned Schulz more than $1 billion. The Peanuts franchise also had success in theatre and the big screen, with the stage musical You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown and computer-animated feature film The Peanuts Movie.
