Why can't we live together - Timmy Thomas

Timmy Thomas was born on November 13, 1944 in Evansville, Indiana (USA), and is best known for his 1972 hit 'Why can't we live together'. The song is notable for its sparse production, featuring only a Hammond organ, percussion from an early rhythm machine and Thomas's passionate, soulful vocal.

Released as a single in late 1972, the song became a major hit in the US during the early part of 1973, reaching number 12 in the UK singles chart and number 25 in the Netherlands. The song was later covered by Mike Anthony and Sade.
