Percy Sledge passed away yesterday at the age of 74 (due to complications from liver cancer) in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He's probably known best for belting out "When a Man Loves a Woman," which became his trademark song. It's not too often that you come across a voice like that.

R.I.P. Percy.

What are you listening to tonight?
