✨🖤Raw and beautifully rare. Just how women like her are made.
Tìcher's never day
If you don't catch the spirit by now, nothing is going to move you, my dear YouTube friends
I'm hating on today's music because of this ,hip hop and r&b music. Because of this sounds like a holy ghost dance music here.thank you Jesus.
Detroit stand up.
RIP Aretha Franklin. You will be missed. And also, Kanye brought me here.
You will be missed, hometown girl!
Thank you Aretha and thank you Ye
R.I.P Lady of Soul
R.I.P. Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin.
Robert Adrian
Rest in Peace Queen of Soul
This..just this...
She wrote this song! She also wrote: *Rock Steady,* *Think* (!), *Since You've Been Gone* (Sweet, Sweet Baby), Who's Zooming Who, *Dr. Feelgood,* and many other... Most people don't know what a great song writer she was! What a broad.
And she played a fine piano!
She was no broad, she was & will forever be the Queen
And " call me"
and "Day Dreaming"
Rest In Power
Long live the queen of soul 2018
Spirit in the dark! Did anyone one come here because of the movie A Family Thing!!!! RIP Mrs. Franklin Queen Of Soul!!!!!
Young singers have copied every popular singer there is, like Whitney, Beyonce', Sade, Lauren Hill, and so many others. However, I have never heard anyone sound like Aretha but Aretha. They cannot duplicate that voice and I know they have tried. She made this world happy with her songs and she was loved by many.
Whitney is a legend of own as well
Mary J. Blige
Alpha step
I feel an emptiness in my soul. Rest in Peace Queen👑🎙🎼💔🥀🥀🙏
RIP Aretha. What a star. You’ve left an incredible legacy.
May your music remain. We love you Ree forever! Heaven sure got lovely choir members.
A legend born today.. RIP Aretha 😔

Doo do do do do, ride Sally ride
Doo do do do do, put your hands on your hips
Cover your eyes"
i thought it was a spiritual song... or are you being dirty?
nastiest song i ever heard.. and i grew up on Millie Jackson.
My awesome Mowtown-loving mother introduced me to the music of Aretha Franklin many years ago and Kanye West brought me back.
rickysammy1, Aretha Franklin never sang for Motown.
Real gospel vocalist accompanied with great bass line.
Kanye brought me here
Simply AWESOME....Thanks for posting....
Still sounding GREAT. I still love this song. Sing it Aretha.
prettycountrygirl2 you
