That clip is proof positive that she's the unchallenged Queen of Soul. Long may she reign.

We're talking about her performance at work this morning. When's the last time you saw her on piano?

I know right?! Elton John is right when he talks about there's something special about her singing while playing piano. Prince too talks about the different relationship a singer has with a song when they're playing an instrument.

And a songwriter. "Call Me" remains a fine piece of craftsmanship.

What I said when watching her perform on television last night. I thought Carol King was going to have a heart attack from being so thrilled to see Aretha perform her song... lol

At around 6:05 she is introduced and plays piano and sings her tail off. This was around the time of the Kennedy Center honors

Losing weight helped her voice. She has more air now. Taking in air is important to the craft, it aint just about the throat. I sing too. Bet you fools never knew that. lol

You must not listen to much of anybody because there's way more entertainers that wear leather than fur.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

I wonder if those that complain about people wearing fur, also do not wear leather shoes, carry leather purses or wallets or eat any product from animals - IJS

From understandimg even soap has animal products in it. Oh well.
