I hate the word "electrifying" but its SO fitting in this situation

That was hot!

And dare I say that I can hear her influence on a "sr. student" of hers that gets a lot of hate on this board.

Whitney probably lol

Bow down to queen.. yes Aretha

What Aretha Franklin can do with her voice has never been duplicated.

Neh, that elder chick who passed on all the great songs offered to her. Maybe it's just me and my chronic fatigue right now, but I can hear her mimicking a lot of what ReRe is doing in this performance.

This clip, she sings so beautifully, thanks.

You know, when she sang at the inauguration, 2008, it was great, very appropriate. But I DID think about Whitney, and why she's not able to perform at that high profile level anymore, and she's half Aretha's age!

Are you a writer? Do you have a blog/tumblr somewhere? Because its a crime if you don't. I've told you this before via orgnote, but, I really appreciate your take on things. I've yet to read a post from you that didn't hit home.

That's very kind of you! Entirely too kind!

I'm a bit of a self-proclaimed thinker/writer who at times probably appears a bit of an ass, but who gradually gets better at it.

I'm ultimately striving at developing skin that is so thick that I can truly smile at any thought, rather than letting anger cloud my judgement, while perhaps potentially doing the same for others.

I suppose at some point I'll either stop altogether (people, please stop applauding), or be so obnoxious and arrogant as to share in a more public way.

Thanks!

I strive for complete anonymity, and don't completely accomplish that either!

Ummmm...

I remember that thread and when I got that album I was in love
