"I've Been Loving You Too Long" Otis Redding
This song feels like a warm red wine blanket all over your body. Your mind explodes at 0:24 seconds and again at 1:00 min. The song starts sweet and loving, then the minor tones creep in, and before you know it, it's an ominous painful pleading. An "I love you... don't leave me" switch; such a simple song, such a dynamic feeling. Otis Redding was making this music when he was my age and younger... genius!
How (what) you'll feel: A sponge squeeze on your heart.
When to play it: On a rainy Saturday night, home alone with a glass of wine, lying on the couch.
