Release date Sept 18, 2007. Music video Directed & Edited by Bob Sarles Produced by Ravin' Films VISIT: http://ravinfilms.com/ Otis Redding wrote this song while living on a houseboat in Sausalito on the San Francisco Bay. We discovered the actual spot where Otis' housboat was berthed, and shot new Super8 footage from the spot for use in this video. Thanks to Anne Garfield, Joel Selvin and Bill Belmont. Otis recorded this song shortly before his tragic death. Steve Cropper finished production on the song after Otis' plane went down. Released posthumously, it was Otis' biggest hit ever. Enjoy!

Otis never got to hear the final cut of this. I bet he'd be proud. Beautiful song. Thanks for the gift of music motley crue  They don't make music like this anymore. This is a good song, however, I can't say the same for the song that replaced it at #1 on the Hot 100 in the spring of 1968. Duck, you will be missed rip donald duck dunn Leonardo DiCaprio's favourite song ! :) <3 Jadore cette chanson ;) the gates to heaven opened up for a great bass player we all loved . rip duck dunn How can you think of Duck and not end up here? Rest in Peace bassman. Tune. Tyler James brought me here  Rest in Peace, Duck.  Rest in Peace Donald Dunn, EPIC bass line Music then vs What passes for music today - What the hell happened?

Vedder's voice just does it for me every time. love the comment he wont make t as a wistler,,,,,,,evereyone called it the wisslng song to be honest i only listened to this coz i watched the mend, there way better There's nothing wrong with stating your opinion. But mature adults are able to do so without swearing or insulting people that disagree with them. Also, your definition of hipster is not completely accurate, but we'll let it slide. not really, I just state my opinion and if your argument is invalid then tough luck. OMG , U're god of soul!!! BGT bought me here the mend sang this song brilliantly ! Steve is so lucky!
