Aretha Franklin

[Firky]

I think she's great. She's a soundtrack to becoming an alcoholic.

I'm currently only listening to "Aretha Gospel", which is absolutely fantastic. The first track is called "There is a fountain filled with blood". Eek.

 

[Baldhead]

Etta and Aretha - both fantastic! (although I get a little bored of 'Respect' too)

Er....Respect

Baldy

She's the best. If any woman looked like she sang they'd have to look like Sade or maybe Jamelia or Debbie Harry or Shirley Manson.

Love Aretha (though not all the material)

But somebody mentioned Etta.

The One!

 

[Loupylou]

You get on my tits. GET OUT!

What's Donny Osmond got against Aretha ?

 

[Eva Luna]

Firks have a listen to 'Tpday I sing the blues' which is superb.

I agree that a lot of her stuff is over played, which kills it, but look closer my friend.

I have her playing now and if I could be arsed to get up and change the playlist I would... she is annoying as fuck. Try working in a bar with a soul night and see how you feel

Oh dear. I'm guessing you'll want to delete me as a Last FM buddy now, Firk.

When a man is tired of Aretha he's tired of life

You have some good stuff in your list to make it worthwhile but you have a beard... its a tough choice.

I love you, too.
