Without Her (Harry Nilsson song)

"Without Her" is a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter Harry Nilsson, released on his 1967 album Pandemonium Shadow Show.

The song, a Baroque pop single, is played with cello and a countermelody performed on a flute, based on only about a half of dozen chords. One of Nilsson's first hits (although a minor one), it explains the sadness and melancholy of spending a day without the loved one, when the person has gone from you. Despite the melancholic theme, the song is described as a joyous song, too.

The song was covered by singer Glen Campbell, American band Blood, Sweat & Tears and Brazilian Bossa nova singer Astrud Gilberto (as "Without Him").
