Al Green stays together with Westbury

Al Green will never go out of style.

It may be stating the obvious, but in an age where singers are Auto-Tuned to the point of sounding like robotic schoolgirls (even the male singers!), we need to be reminded of the purity a real singing voice can have.

That reminder came earlier this year when President Barack Obama adequately crooned a line from Green's "Let's Stay Together," during a fundraiser in Harlem. After video of Obama's rendition of the 1971 hit went viral, the song had a weekly sales boost of 490 percent, with 16,000 downloads in the week ending Jan. 22, according to Billboard. Green told TMZ that Obama "nailed it." No disrespect to the president, who can clearly carry a tune, but he really can't touch Green's soaring falsetto and soulful voice. It's a voice that inspired a generation to get busy creating the next generation.

Arguably one of Green's most famous songs, "Let's Stay Together" is part of pop culture in ways that few songs are. With Green coming to Westbury on Friday, we decided to look at a few favorite moments when the classic became ingrained in our collective conscientiousness.
