I saw and heard the news today about Aretha. She was such a talented person. I always loved her music over the years. What a sad day and a loss to the music world..
She will be missed. Rest in peace, Aretha.

Aretha was one of the best Motown family artists and she may be missed but her songs will live on and on...right along side like all the other artists of that era that we have lost

The first female singer that I didn't change the radio dial when her songs came on.
There is something about this song that gets me......the timing, the instrumentation and the voice

and there was this one, I grew up in that era and I wish it never ended.. I used to spend hours mixing her and all the other motown family onto cassettes during the week to play while camping on the weekends....

She was one of the artist we listened to in the garage growing up. Her music is part of my gear head education. Shame there won't be any others like her.

This is a loss of true talent. I don't even like motown but I always liked her music. Incredible voice.

Aretha Franklin really made Motown what it was. Her voice was one in a million. Rest In Peace.
