so many people only know Aretha's version, which is brilliant, but Otis' version is brilliant in its own right. Gotta love it!

@doowoppingchainsawer How can you think about "shit" when talking about beautly? Both Aretha and Otis are great!

Don't forget, Otis actually wrote this song. He had to make millions off the royalties just from

Aretha alone.

The original is the superior song. Aretha's is great in its own way. But it doesnt compare to the greatness of the performance by the God damn man that wrote the motherfucker.

This is the only version I can listen to. You can hear the earning in his voice when he sings. Aretha just shouts through her version. It makes my ears bleed.

i still prefer Otis version <3

[hejloeeee]

i love otis but aretha's version is far more better

has 1 person gone on all of the otis blue videos and disliked them?

respect, Amen 2 that

Otis wrote the song! His estate had to do very well based on the royalties fron Aretha alone.

Otis Redding and Nat King Cole have to be two of my favorite singers.
