Απεβίωσε σε ηλικία 76 ετών ο θρυλικός Αμερικανός τραγουδιστής και συνθέτης, Ben Earl King, ο οποίος έμεινε στην Ιστορία ως ο ερμηνευτής του τραγουδιού Stand Be Me.

Με μια καριέρα που κράτησε σχεδόν 60 χρόνια, ο Αφροαμερικανός καλλιτέχνης γνώρισε μεγάλες επιτυχίες, αλλά το κομμάτι που τον σημάδεψε ήταν το Stand By Me.

Ben E. King - Stand by me

When the night has come, and the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we will see
No, I won't be afraid, oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
So darlin', darlin' stand by me
Oh stand by me
Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin' stand by me
Oh stand by me
Whoa stand now, stand by me, stand by me
*Solo*

And darlin', darlin' stand by me
Oh stand by me
Oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin' stand by me
Oh stand by me
Whoa stand now, stand by me, stand by me
So darlin', darlin' stand by me
Oh stand by me
Oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh stand by me
Whoa stand now, oh stand, stand by me...
