"To Love Somebody" #17 8/26/1967

The second single from the Bee Gees has been covered numerous times by everyone from Janis Joplin to Michael Bolton. Barry Gibb was asked by the group's manager Robert Stigwood to write the song for Otis Redding, but the brothers recorded it themselves. Otis died in a plane crash before he got the chance to do so. Wonder how he would've spun it. A personal favorite of mine.
