The Fabric of Our Lives ~ | |

Technically, cotton is a fiber - not a fabric. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I remember that commercial on TV. Wasn't it Aaron Neville who sang it? RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

A lot of people have sung it. It's still inaccurate. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I seem to remember the person singing the commercial to be Aaron Neville (since he has a very distinct singing voice). But I could be wrong. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Okay this is the commercial that I remember from the 90's, and it's definitely Aaron Neville singing it:
But Genesia is right, there are other videos sung by different singers, and it seems to be the same song (or similar). RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

all righty! this thread is just what i need to rant about this cool blanket i have~! it is so lightweight it's almost like a cobweb, yet, it's sufficiently warm enough that i need only one layer to keep me toasty
true, it ain't cotton. but, in a way it is cotton's funky urban cousin. therefore, it's suitable for mention on this thread.
i love my blankey~!~! | |

A FIBER that is woven into a FABRIC.

I was just going to put that...it doesn't sing as smoothly that way.
The touch...the feel...the fiber that's been woven into a cloth...of our lives... I'm firmly planted in denial | |

I tried to find a list of all the people who sang 'The Fabric Of Our Lives' over the years.... no luck. Can't find a complete list. Richie Havens was first, Aaron Neville was second. Miranda Lambert was the voice in 2009. I can't find much solid information for the years in between. But there have definitely been a lot of other people. The dark, dusty files way in the back of my brain are telling me that I remember Willie Nelson singing it.
Also, the Wiki Cotton page says "fiber" over and over. Almost likey they're annoyed by the song, too. | |

Isn't there a cotton industry website somewhere? Who was the sponsor of the commercials? You ahould be able to contact them to find out. | |

Don't even get me started on that doggone song. Ever since I saw it as a little girl, I can't even go shopping without checking the fabric labels or brushing my face against something cotton-ish. I'm trying hard right now not to break out into song... | |
