"I've Been Loving You Too Long" (originally "#IveBeenLovingYou Too Long (To Stop Now)") is a #soulMusic ballad written by #OtisRedding and #JerryButler. Considered by music critics and writers to be one of Redding's finest performances and a soul classic, it is a slow, emotional piece with Redding's pleading vocals backed by producer #SteveCropper's arpeggiated guitar parts and a horn section. Redding recorded the song in 1965.
