The power of your voice in music and in civil rights blew open the door for me and so many others. You were my inspiration, my mentor and my friend. You showed me I could sing the songs I wanted to sing and bring God with me. You've inspired millions everywhere yet never left home, never left church. Today the entire world mourns your home-going and celebrates all the brilliance you left behind. I will forever cherish the moments I spent in your presence. Your indelible impact was earned not only by your incomparable voice but by your bigger than life personality, wit and humor. I say a BIG prayer for you. You will forever have all our RESPECT.

She loved Bert
QuoteThe Queen of Soul checked in with Wendy Williams on Wednesday?s show where she sang the Pied Piper?s praises. ?Do you love the song that R. Kelly just recorded, ?When a Woman Loves??? she asked the talk show host of the single from Kellz? latest album Love Letter. ?I think any woman that?s ever been in love will readily relate to that song. He is singing that song. I mean he is singing his heart and his soul out.?
Kellz had her head over heels in love with his tender tune. ?You know if he isn?t careful, I might become a cougar,? warned the 68-year-old Detroit native.
She has the #1 song on itunes, About to occupy the entire top10
plus the #1 album on Itunes :stressed:

:gorlonfire: I love when she beats those damn keys.
Which song was it that she's singing almost in an operatic tone in the background throughout? I believe it was a ballad but someone actually shared on here not too long ago I believe..

eltonjohn The loss of Aretha Franklin is a blow for everybody who loves real music: Music from the heart, the soul and the Church. Her voice was unique, her piano playing underrated ? she was one of my favourite pianists. I was fortunate enough to spend time with her and witness her last performance ? a benefit for the Elton John AIDS Foundation at St John The Divine Cathedral. She was obviously unwell, and I wasn?t sure she could perform. But Aretha did and she raised the roof. She sang and played magnificently, and we all wept. We were witnessing the greatest soul artist of all time. I adored her and worshipped her talent. God bless her. My condolences to all her family and friends. We shared the same birthday ? and that meant so much to me. The whole world will miss her but will always rejoice in her remarkable legacy. The Queen is dead. Long live the Queen. @arethasings #RIP #ArethaFranklin #QueenOfSoul @ejaf

The way I found out didn't help.
I walked up to the front desk of the office, and the secretary gasped -- she was looking at her computer. And she said "Aretha died". And I said "Oh no" - I was calm, I knew it was coming.
But when I walked out, I cried. And I couldn't even cry the way I wanted to, due to the obligations I had today. She's been a fixture all my life. It's like losing a grandmother.

She was married a few times, she had her first baby at 15, her Mother abandoned her when she was 6.
Her life would make an amazing biog and they tried to get it off the ground a few times but it never went beyond discussion, Karen Clark was even tapped to play Clara Ward, her mentor.
I'm certain it'll happen now that she's passed.

Just gonna be hard for her to tame herself and practice technique..
the first 10 years of Aretha?s secular career were delicate vocal recordings .. ?pop? vocals
PERFECT choice
Yeah Celine is never getting a biopic

My only concern is for the movie to appear as simply Jennifer trying to play Aretha. I kind of wish they went with an unknown.
She is gonna do an amazing job y?all

Her mother leaving her at 6

This will be powerful for her.

Queen blows but she lacks direction and versatility
She slays a power mess tho ...

Quote from: Red Skin on August 16, 2018, 10:51:46 AM
She had a full, amazing life.
Unfortunately death is a reality we must all face.
She left her mark. So she'll be here forever. Kudos to you Queen.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVR73DHotbA
You are right. She reached 76, had an amazing career that lasted over 60 years, fame, fortune, luxury, wit, humor, charm, talented piano player, the voice of a generation, key part of the civil rights movement along with her father, four healthy sons, countless grand kids, some sessy lovers, husbands etc. She lived a full life.

Still kickin?, alert!
Quee was probably already dead
I've seen it with some family members that have had cancer and passed away. They are doing so bad and then all of a sudden they get better for a short while before they pass. My aunt's husband passed from Pancreatic cancer a few years ago. He has in his 90s though. He was over 20 years older than my aunt. He died within a year of the diagnosis like most do with this particular type of cancer. Aretha did amazing living with this type for cancer for all those years. :stressed:

This is sad to see our legends go. Despite who she may have been personally, she really raised the standard vocally.
she really did
And she acts no different than most granny?s
No staff or band has complained or says she mistreated them
Honestly barely any celeb has
She was 60 years deep.. and old women get grouchy
Love this queen.. need u here to comfort me a bit
You gotta let the elders mess a bit. I remember years ago Mary J Blige was meant to perform with Queen at the grammys for their duet Never Gonna Break My Faith. The song was nominated for a Golden Globe and grammy. Queen said Mary could sit this one out and got Bebe Winans to replace her during the grammy performance. The Mary stans were heated but all Mary said was that she loved and respected Queen and would do as she was told with no explanation. She was literally clueless as to why she was cut. :plzstop:
Actually the last grammy Queen Aretha ever won was for this song. :stressed:

Gloria Estefan singing Natural woman with some white woman and Aretha at 46:00 Baph
I love this whole album so much. The note she hit @ the end. :flamebroiled:
^I think Lady Soul, I Never Loved A Man & Let Me In Your Life are my fave older Aretha albums
I think Aretha was the best pianist among any female singer.

QuoteOn January 10 1979, Donny Hathaway, suffering from severe mental illness, committed suicide by leaping from the fifteenth-floor balcony of his room at the
Esses House in New York City. He was working on a second album of duets with
Roberta Flack. I was the one designated to call Aretha with the news.'' said Jerry Wexler.
After all, I had brought Donny to Aretha in the first place. She had seen his talent and called
him one of the most marvelous players, writers, and singers she had ever encountered.
Because Aretha had suffered with depression of her own, she was sympathetic to
Donny 's disease, but she had no ideal of just how sick he was. None of us did. When I
told her the tragic news, she let out this small cry of absolute anguish. He was 33 years old. Donny's suicide devastated Aretha.'' said Cecil. He was one of the few artists whose
musical soul was comparable to hers She related to him on a very deep level and put .
him in the same class as Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder. She was in shock for
weeks. A month later, when we went to play Harrah's in Vegas she dedicated her
performance of' You Light Up My Life' to Donny.''

QuoteAretha had an obsessive need to keep a tight rein on Dennis Edwards, who wasn't bout that. So during a period of not hearing from him, Aretha supposedly burst up into a rehearsal session wearing a full length fur asking for Dennis.
When he tries to put her off until they finish, she drops the coat and is butt naked and says "You got time for me now..." Temps scattered and Dennis leaves with his woman.
