why was he ain't heavy he's my brother written
Was someone dying
No, "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother" was not written because someone was dying.
The song was written in 1969 by songwriters Bobby Scott and Bob Russell. It was initially recorded by Kelly Gordon. The song's title was inspired by a photograph of a young boy carrying his brother on his back, which was published in a magazine. The image moved the songwriters, and they decided to write a song based on the idea of offering support and love to others, especially during challenging times. The song became widely popular after being recorded by The Hollies in 1969.
