Bill Withers' original "Ain't no Sunshine" in 1971 has known, over time, quite a number of covers of various genres, from worldwide known artists such as Lenny Kravitz and Michael Jackson (back from when he was a kid) to more obscure bands that had a different approach to the original song resulting in tracks such as Atlas' smooth-jazzy-funky cover (my personal favourite) or Subsonica's dub sounding version, or, another great one, the drum'n'bass cover belonging to Bachelors of Science, which, i admit, slightly ashamed of my 21st century ignorance, was my first contact ever with this masterpiece. That doesn't change the fact that Bachelors of Science did an awesome job, though :)
The original song was inspired by the 1962 movie Days of Wine and Roses and its characters struggling with alcohol addiction, as they miss something that is obviously harmful to them.
P.S Sidenote on the original clip, that drummer is awesome xD as the people posting the comments noticed it too, "He knows something we don't." *drummer grin*
