On my iPod – (Sittin’ on) The Dock of the Bay by Sarah Bareilles
I love a good cover. Let me repeat, I love a good cover. For a cover to be good it must be unexpected and make me feel differently about the song than the original does. Sarah Bareilles’ cover of Otis Redding’s (Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay does just that.
Piano has long been one of my all time favorite instruments and it cannot be denied that the girl can sing.
And, for those of you who feel covers never do the original version justice, here is Otis’ version for your listening pleasure.
