Wonder this time where she’s gone. wonder if she’s gone to stay.

Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone.

And this house just ain’t no home.

Anytime she goes away.

I know Gotta leave the young thing alone There ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone.

Only darkness every day.

Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone.

And this house just ain’t no home.

Anytime she goes away.

All right stop collaborate and listen Robert Matthew Van Winkle (born October 31, 1967), best known by his stage name Vanilla Ice, is an American rapper. Born in Dallas, Texas, and raised in Texas and South Florida, Van Winkle released his debut album, Hooked, in 1989 through Ichiban Records, before signing a contract with SBK Records, which released a reformatted version of the album under the title To the Extreme. Van Winkle’s single “Ice Ice Baby” was the first hip hop single to top the Billboard charts, and has been credited with helping to diversify hip hop by introducing it to a mainstream white audience.

Where Do the Children Play? is a song by English folk-rock musician, Cat Stevens now known as Yusuf Islam. It was released

as part of the album Tea for the Tillerman in 1970. The song reflects Islam’s growing awareness of the turmoil of the 1960s and the issues involved; war, urban sprawl, poverty, ecological disaster, and the future of humankind. The same themes and concerns are repeated later in many of his songs. This song was originally played in concert only by Islam and Alun Davies most often with only acoustic instruments, but later, after Islam began to embrace more of an electric guitar sound, it was adapted to accommodate it. Within the year of writing the song, Islam provided songs, including this one, for the soundtrack of the 1971 movie, Harold and Maude. The film, directed by Hal Ashby and written by Colin Higgins, shows a scene during the song, where one of the lead characters, Harold, is driving, and then, the camera, from above, shows him driving past first one little white grave stone, and then pans out to a large area of the same identical war-time gravestones, until, panning even further, the number of little tiny white graves is nearly overwhelming, and underscores the point of the song. In 2005 he recorded it with Dolly Parton on the Dolly Parton album Those Were the Days.
