Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay
Tweet This"Guess who's singing this song?" asks Hubby. "And don't look."
"Tracey Chapman?" I guess.
"No," replies Hubby.
"Really?" I ask certain I'm right.
"Nope," says Hubby.
"Beyonce?" I ask.
"No," says Hubby.
"Is she black or white?" I ask.
"White," says Hubby.
"Hmmmmmmm, Fergie?" I ask.
"No," says Hubby totally delighted I'm stumped.
I couldn't think of anymore white girls who sound black, so I guess his new favorite artist. I'm sure he has a little crush on my next guess.
"Have we seen her in concert?" I ask.
"Yep," says Hubby.
"That's Sara Bareilles?!" I ask. "Wow, I'm impressed."
"She's awesome," says Hubby swooning.
See, Internet I told you he has a crush on her. But it's okay because I do, too.
Bareilles's voice is pretty as a bird's in this cover of "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay," originally by Otis Redding. Bareilles may be white, but she's channeling some sweet soul in this video.
In 1967, Redding died only three days after recording the song, in a plane crash, at the tender age of 26. The song went on to become a number 1 hit. Maybe his spirit was aiding Bareilles in some way........
Enjoy :)
