Re: YOUR FAVORITE ARETHA SONG?

Aretha was also to the Queen of Class unlike some other sub par "divas."  So my favorites are: Duet with my other late great favorite, "Knew You Were Waiting For me" with George Michael. Love this upbeat song!

Freeway of Love

I can't even think of one I don't like.  Her voice was magic.

 

I believe that 'Natural Woman' is a Carole King song, though, no?   Not that Ms Franklin didn't do it justice.  She killed it.

Carole King originally wrote that song for Aretha ..... and later sang it on one of her albums, as well.

Kelly Clarkson does a fabulous job singing it too!  I remember that from American Idol. 

 

I like Chain of Fools too!
