  • Thanks for uploading this song..its one of the best

    

  • Timeless!

    

  • I belong in that generation

  • Most ppl my age are stuck on Trey Songz, Chris Brown and others, but I'm perfectly fine with the real stuff. So glad I found Otis Redding songs :)

  • i have goose bumbs allll over

  • Sometimes i slightly hope that my relationship will come to an end, so this kind of songs make more impact then they allready do. I can see myself sitting in a bar with an asstray full of cigarettes and a few empty glasses while i watch the snow fall down in the streetlights outside, Now and then a single car passes by slowly, but most of the people are sittting at home around the christmas tree, being happy and stuff, while i've got the ultimate blues feeling and feel secretive happy somewere.

  • @19boozebelly81

    Yes!!! Exactly!!!! Now that is a comment that could only be made by someone that NEEDS and FEELS music in a way that most people don't even know is possible. Right on. Love it!

  • @panicsecret Well thanks, glad you like it :)

  • This is my favourite song ... has been since the first time I heard it.

  • ottis sexiest voice ive heard.....

  • She says I shouldn't talk about her if shes not part of the conversation, isn't love supposed to be about the one you LOVE..................

  • absents makes the heart grow fonder this song mends it .

  • Chills!!!

  • OTIS REALLY GOT IT.....HE PUT IT INTO WORDS. DAMN!

  • Sounds so soulful dont you agree?

  • REAL MUSIC! ROLLAS THT WILL NEVER DIE!!! CUZ OLDIES R FOREVER!

  • truly timeless music. everyone can relate.

  • we are made of stars ..

  • Striped from all the bs - straight to the point of how a man/woman can feel in the rare moments of true love. He has a gift beyond description. Thanks Otis

  • This man, MY MAN, would embarrass ANYONE performing live today.

  • One of the 10 greatest R&B/Soul songs of all time.and Otis wrote most of his hits too. Add these other Otis songs, "These Arms Of Mine", "Pain In My Heart", Chained And Bound", "Mr. Pitiful" and "That's How Strong My Love Is" and you have 6 of the top 10 of all time. It is so sad that most people only remember "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay'. A nice song, but not in the same league as those mentioned above.

  • forever ....man !x cantar asi te toco la mejor cantante tmb de esposa

  • I want this played at my wedding

  • BELLA ..... es esta cancion (I just love it)

  • Great guitar playing by the one and only Steve Cropper!!

  • yall know WHAT they still make music like this today but the mainstream media just will NOT play IT they want us to believe its all about "merking" "bling" "sex" and "drugs" huh

  • Is He the Character That was Played By LEON, on the Temptations? He was a great Singer.

  • No, Leon played David Ruffin another amazing vocalist!

  • Oh ok. thanks for the reply.

  • my aunt use to have lots of partys and play this stuff so loud when i was like 9! I love it. Good memories.

  • Sitting in the front row at the Basin Street West in S.F., watching the genius of Otis, only days after she said good by. That was 1967 and some things never go away. The hurt then and the tragedy of his passing so soon after that evening. I know that it was a gift to be so close, but the indescribable hurt goes on. Wish it wasn't so, but the best is... simply the best there is. I still have my memories; the night watching Otis is simply irreplacable. I'm grateful beyond description.

  • beautiful story...

  • what a beautiful voice!

  • I've been loving you too long.....lindoooooooo!!!

  • what makes them sad? makes me understand sadness, find that next one and move on. financial intanglments are the worst, cause your depending on that other person funds to keep you afloat.afford only what you can and never live outside those meens

  • it is wonderful to FEEL !!!!!! :) it is wonderful to be human ... we have so simple needs ..and we complicate our existence ... with superficiality...from this sick society..that we allowed to be created..

    :((

    LOVE is everything that matters in life ... be good ...be peace.. and LOVE !

  • Otis Redding is Fucking Brilliant!

  • Otis forever...

  • Thank you Patrick Stump for mentioning this song in Rolling Stone. I grew up with this song. It reminded me to look it up on YouTube.

  • the live video is even better, so soulful. so passionate. so beautiful. a song worth a million chills.

  • I have had this song in my head for two days.

    Thank God for Youtube.

  • You died a legend. Even as you rest peacefully, your voice and soul echo from the depths calling out for the world to admire and respect your legacy. Your untimely death was no doubt a travesty for a dark cloud fell upon the music industry. However, through the pastures that have grown thick since that fateful evening you were stolen from us, a small flower blossoms signifying a birth of a new era led by the next generation of struggling artists. Otis Redding, you will never be forgotten... RIP

  • This song is beautiful and you can feel the pain in his voice, so you feel like this is how it sound if emotions were music, how it would sound when you love someone you know you shouldn't but you just can't stop! dang this is music.

  • This song is soo beautiful it makes me want to cry.

  • Dee is the woman who has my heart, she is the woman who i long to be with but, circumstances meant we couldnt be together, although we have had our moments and shared a wonderfull week in Ireland, she is truley the angel i thought never existed, i know one day we will be. I love her so. Thats who Dee is

  • dam i just love black men they are gods no other like a black man they makes me go crazy with their singing dancing and love making

  • how beautifull! ONE LOVE 4IVER

  • I can't stand it when new artis try to re-record this great song and think they are offering a better or unique version.

    There should be a law as follows:

    Any recording artis atempting to re-record or sample this classic should have their balls bee bee shot 100 times.

    Only then and after then should they be allowed to sell the recortding to thier mother. But thats it.

  • What a song...

  • beautiful song <3

  • Thanks otis, everytime i hear this song, i just think, "that guys got soul".

  • To Dee, the years have been rolling by, but every day i stop and remember what we had and this will go on untill TODTTS, now&4ever IWBYM. I truley miss you and, some day i will find you again.

  • "That's the goddamn bridge answering the goddamn boat.... goddamn."

  • I love this song so much!!!!!! His voice makes my heart smile!

  • roadhouse i think

  • Maybe Children of a Lesser God? or maybe that was "These Arms of Mine"..

  • dirty dancing

  • love it!!!!!!!!!!

    actually love him :)xxxxxxxxxxxx

  • If you could find this song done by Etta James back in the late 60's early 70's, it will give you the same feeling that this version does, But Otis does it a little better. both are great

  • so much soul

  • Awesome Song. Pulls at the heart strings everytime.

  • Superb!

  • Ahoy, Maties, Beautiful sentiments and soulful pipes, graphics rare delight, compliments of One Find MdDSer, J

  • Otis was the greatest, and this song can only be sung by him.

    Along with Sam Cooke and Jackie Wilson, they are the great trilogy of pop music. They were simply irreplaceable.

  • I've been in heaven, this song is proof.

  • How you gonna top that comment, oldtownkid.

  • This song reminds me of a wonderful time I had, with who I thought would be the woman I was gonna marry. It didn't work out but I enjoyed every moment of that relationship, and she was the one got me into Otis.

  • There's nothing that prepares you for true love better than heartbreak. Keep putting your line in the water, there's more fish out there.

  • Makes me want to cry.

  • i love this song so much it is great they just don't make music like this any more

  • my god. I love this song. Pure raw emotions. You got to Love Otis's voice. I miss it so.

  • Sometimes letting go is just not an option. She changed his way of life, then let him to wonder free. She misunderstood his meaning when they first met. He stands still frozen on the latter of his life, she closed the door and left him blinded by her light. He will never move past it. Anyone agree?

  • HUHHH ?????

  • It might help if you learned to spell.

  • Une des meilleurs chansons - chante par un des meilleurs praticants de "soul" - Otis, tu as ete trop tot arache de ta vie, et c'est nous qui souffrons par cette perte.

  • Otis Redding (along with Marvin Gaye) had the best voice I've ever heard

  • This song is timeless and comes from a time when music was truely music. Percy Sledge did an excellent cover of this. Otis Redding left us much, much too soon. Cahrlie S.
