Als ik deze voortreffelijke opname hoor van Otis redding met Steve Cropper,dan kom ik tot de slotsom dat zijn artiestenleven maar kort heeft mogen duren,maar mijn God wat heeft deze artiest verschrikkelijk goeie nummers voor het na-geslacht nagelaten waar wij nog dagelijks naar kunnen luisteren met weemoed in ons hart.
I am as rock/metal as they come, but no matter what music you like, you can't deny this man's music as some of the best stuff there is.i first heard his music in 97 at the age of 18. My sister had his greatest hits cd and i threw it in. never had heard of him, but had heard sitting on the dock of the bay before. A hour later, I stole that cd from my sis and it was all i listened to for 2 months.
@suthrnangel1011 similar story here, i'm younger than most ppl on ths comment board but am a die hard wu-tang/nas/mobb deep etc. fan but THIS IS SOME SOUL TOUCHING TYPE SH*T!! IF CAN U DENY THIS UR BROKEN..
I got dreams--where we stop forsaking the classics, and stop manufacturing talent. I can only imagine what the world would be like if today's mainstream artists really paid proper mind to what their forefathers did, stood up to the labels and producers, and said, "I will keep my soul. You will not have it."
@13xicatTS it's funny how many people still hang around on the internet without using adblock plus... download it, get it, it's free and you save yourself annoying commercials
@Jalenxa8 i know. anthony does his thing.soulful so full of soul. does great things to your spirit. otis, i'm in love with. since birth, he's my moms favorite. so it's just in me. can't shake it. wouldn't make it
man it sucks cause there are so many ppl that could sing like this but they dont get noticed because producers and agents only go with whats mainstream, and that makes them think that this kind of music wont make any money. yeah all they care about is money. well this is AMAZING goodnight youtube!
It kills me knowing that true music is officially dead... I genuinely cannot see how there will ever be another artist who will be remembered as a legend.
The death of Michael Jackson was the death of the last true musical legend. How I wish we could bring back Otis, James Brown, MJ, and all the other greats who are no longer with us. R.I.P Music..........
Love the classic music of the GREAT Otis Redding.... this one is definitely reminiscent of "I've Been Loving You Too Long" as far as the arrangement of the instruments and even down to some of Otis' runs. May this legend truly rest in peace for givin us music that touches our hearts and souls.
okay, i wanna tell u guys a lil anecdote about this song... it was written by otis' wife zelma while otis was on a tour in europe. when he got back she presented it to him- he just laughed and told her she doesnt know how to write songs, but he put that piece of paper in his pocket. she only learned that he had actually recorded it after he died! man and how he recorded it...
it's amazing the amount of pain a person heart can take.. I've hit a low point in my life.. You were the only good thing in my life and now your gone every breath, every blink of an eye is a struggle.. But i've come a long long way and i know i'll make it through.. I should of known you were just passing through but i held on to a dream so long when all along it was a mirage...
NOW I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP I PRAY THE LORD MY SOUL TO KEEP, IF I SHOULD DIE BEFORE I WAKE I PRAY THE LORD MY SOUL TO TAKE... NITE NITE SWEET COREYI WILL ALWAYS HOLD YOU DEAR TO MY HEART.
I HOPE COREY HAIM HAS LOVELY DREAMS NOW HE IS IN HEAVEN, AS HE WAS SUCH A TROUBLED SOUL ON EARTH. I CRY EVERYDAY IN MY OWN PRIVACY OVER THE DEATH OF COREY HAIM, WHAT A WASTE OF A WONDERFUL PERSON APPARENTLY HE WAS 1 OF HOLLYWOOD'S GENTLEMEN! EVERY WHO KNEW HIM ALL SAID THE SAME NO MATTER WHAT WAS GOING ON IN HIS LIFE HE ALWAYS MADE TIME FOR HIS FANS, U DON'T GET MANY OF THOSE THESE DAY'S.
I love this song so much, it reminds me of the poor heartbroken actor Corey Haim who tragically died on 10th march 2010. This song played when he starred in the movie Dream A little dream with his best friend Corey Feldman. R I P Corey Haim i miss your cheeky smile everyday, u remind me of my teenage yrs thanks for the memories. miss ya :(
@OHioyungsta Are you fucking kidding me? There are way more artists who DON'T use autotune than those who do. Just cause you can't find good artists, doesn't mean they're not around.
@blablaat Completely agree, all the good artists of the day are just don't have the amount of publicity that the pop stars have today. if you want to listen to GOOD music of today you have to find it
@abdulwahabadi ..well you just have to understand that not everyone likes the same things. I love it because it reminds me of dream a little dream..incredible little movie..and soundtrack. not everyone will feel this way. oh well..
This song takes me back to my childhood with my family and my grandfather having parties. we would sit on the porch and we would put in otis tapes and we would sing away!
I'm so glad music is a big part of my life. With music like this,life is definitely good. This is coming from a guy who listens to Heavy Metal,Spanish,Trance/Electronica and Classical music...
otis remind me of my daddy...he died in 98. my father's voice sounds just like this. my father never made it big, but he could sang:) r.i.p daddy, u live on through me.
@43OXFORD Different chords, but yeh the strings are picked in similar ways. A lot of Otis Reddings songs involve arpeggios similar to the ones in this song.
i was born in 93' . I know nothing about this kind of music and I dont understand it but I love it . I really do . I know when I get older I will understand it . <3
It's such a pity that the foul mouthed, drug dealing, criminals of rap couldn't live up to their heritage. I suppose the immaculate Otis set the bar too high? Listen to him and die a little.
It's such a pity that the fraudulent, ghetto blasting, foul mouthed, drug dealing,, dead beats of rap never lived up to their heritage. Otis set the bar to high?

I don't normally comment. I don't ask for thumbs up but, my father told me something when I was very young. "Otis would have been the godfather of soul, not James Brown, if he didn't pass away so young." Thumbs up if you agree.
@picklejuice01 - Although I mean to take nothing away form the awesome talent that James Brown was but the truth is James Brown is not even in the same ballpark when it comes to Soul. He is at best a far second to Oitis. Just listen...the music cannot lie.
@picklejuice01 I think he is anyway mate . JB was nothing earlier on. Look at the footage of Brown singing Please Please Please and looking like he's wearing calipers! and compare it to any of the Stax artists but particularly Otis, and Sam and Dave. JB looked like the Grandfather of Soul in that footage, urgently in need of a couple of hip replacements. The King is dead, long live the KIng as we say in the UK and that was and always will be Otis.
Healthy,positive human evolution CAN ONLY BE when healthy,positive human minds,HEARTS,souls are/being cultivated--JaniceTriphena AKA PotentialGrow. ONE LOVE because of the same RED BLOOD!
I have cried an ocean of tears to this song. Every night for five interminable years as I grieved a 25 year marriage evaporate. Otis delivers the blues ballad like no one ever will. What a tragic end to such a beautiful artist.
Do you remember when you first saw the one you loved with another....your stomach on the floor....heart pounding.... knees weak...and its when you knew...you finally knew this time...it was over. And now all you have is the memories....sweet precious dreams to remember. Her touch...soft slow delicate kiss....and the scent of her essence as you fall completely into her. "Dreams to Remember"
Listen to the story....ohhh just listen... to the story. How does he reach the deepest part of soul. A talent beyond words. We could use your music in mainstream today. Thanks Otis
The best singer that ever existed. This song proves it, as does Dock Of The Bay. The man died before his time and is missed everyday by many. The music he made was raw emotion that can never be replaced or replicated by anyone. R.I.P the great Otis Redding!!! You are loved by all as your music continues to transcend the soul.
Als ik deze voortreffelijke opname hoor van Otis redding met Steve Cropper,dan kom ik tot de slotsom dat zijn artiestenleven maar kort heeft mogen duren,maar mijn God wat heeft deze artiest verschrikkelijk goeie nummers voor het na-geslacht nagelaten waar wij nog dagelijks naar kunnen luisteren met weemoed in ons hart.

Listen to the story....ohhh just listen... to the story. How does he reach the deepest part of soul. A talent beyond words. We could use your music in mainstream today. Thanks Otis

The best singer that ever existed. This song proves it, as does Dock Of The Bay. The man died before his time and is missed everyday by many. The music he made was raw emotion that can never be replaced or replicated by anyone. R.I.P the great Otis Redding!!! You are loved by all as your music continues to transcend the soul.
