Los Angeles: Legendary musician Stevie Wonder paid tribute to late music icon Bill Withers by moving rendition to his hit songs during his performance in star-studded One World: Together At Home virtual concert.
Wonder, 69, sang two of Withers' iconic songs, Lean On Me and Love's In Need Of Love Today. Withers died from heart complications on March 30 at age 81, according to sources.
"During hardships like this, we have to lean on each other for help. My friend, the late Bill Withers, has the perfect song for that, and I want us to remember him tonight," Wonder said right before his performance.
Partway through Lean On Me, Wonder transitioned to his own timely ballad "Love's in need of love today".
