Ray Charles was the stage name of Ray Charles Robinson (September 23, 1930 - June 10, 2004). He was a pioneering American pianist and soulmusician who helped shape the sound of rhythm and blues and brought a soulful sound to everything from country music to pop standards to a now-iconic rendition of "America the Beautiful." Frank Sinatracalled him "the only genius in the business." In 2003, he headlined the White House Correspondents Dinner in Wash., DC, at which President and Mrs. Bush, Colin Powell and Condoleeza Rice, were in attendance. Astonishingly, he also performed at the request of the previous seven American presidents. During his life he received eight honorary doctorates, the last from Dillard University in New Orleans in 2003.

Honey Honey Lyrics
Ray Charles
1) when I got misery , oh my where are you , honey
honey , oh honey honey , where can you be
2) whisperin when the lights are low , to each
teardrop on my pillow
honey honey , honey honey , where are you
* I crossed the scalds in dessert , just to be where
you are
I want you need you love you , but still we?e apart
3) when I want to hold you , oh my where are you
honey honey , my honey honey , where can you be
