“Just The Way You Are” is on Barry White’s The Man album, which can be bought here. If you were a caged bird, you would hear this song of resignation from the bird in the crate next to you. Its meaning is literal in that the person saying it loves someone exactly as they. “Just The Way You Are” was even granted the honour of an interpretation by Frank Sinatra, on his Trilogy album, released in 1980. I love you the way you are is not an idiom but it is a common phrase. Dozens more would accrue in the ensuing years, for a number that was named both Record of the Year and Song of the Year at the Grammy Awards of 1979.
The song was written by Bruno Mars, Philip Lawrence, Ari Levine, Khalil Walton and Needlz and produced by the former three, under their alias, The Smeezingtons along with Needlz. It is the lead single from his debut studio album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans (2010).

Joel’s song attracted at least 15 other cover versions in 1978 alone, including interpretations by everyone from Johnny Mathis to Grover Washington Jr, Engelbert Humperdinck to Ray Conniff and from Dionne Warwick to Isaac Hayes. We have an official Just The Way You Are tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Unusually, too, that international success outstripped the domestic performance of White’s “Just The Way You Are.” The US single made the R&B chart in January 1979, but only reached No.45 and failed to cross over to the Hot 100. It landed at No.12 in late January, its 12-week sales span only outdone in his chart life there by the 14 weeks logged by his 1974 No.1 “You’re The First, The Last, My Everything.” The cover opened at a modest No.61, but became Barry’s 13th Top 40 UK hit in just five and a half years, climbing steadily over the holiday and new year period.
