Otis Redding’s Whistle Wasn’t Meant to Stay 🎶

Did you know the iconic whistling at the end of “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” was never supposed to be in the final cut? Otis Redding only whistled because he hadn’t finished the lyrics—and then tragedy struck before he could return to the studio. Fans still debate if the haunting outro makes the song more powerful or just a sad reminder of what could’ve been. #OtisRedding #DockOfTheBay #MusicHistory #Entertainment #Music
