Aretha Franklin appeared at Microsoft Theater, Los Angeles. August 2, 2015 This video has been posted for entertainment purposes, only. All rights have been reserved by the respective artist, label, and/or writers.
I was always amazed how Aretha allowed her superior gift to override any vanity. She was oblivious to the "physical" norms of stardom. She knew she was a SUPERIOR Star regardless of her weight AND!! never allowed its fluctuations to impact the security of her stage presence. You havta' realize this was during the time of Karen Carpenter - a pitch perfect talent who starved herself to death. Aretha didn't give a hoot! She reigned at so many different dress sizes and always looked magnificent! She was just as bold in life as she was with that voice! She's an inspiration!!
2 barley open your mouth to sing and sound like a angel is just amazing. Thank you God for blessing this world with The beautiful Aretha franklin. R.I.P Queen❤❤
I wish that Aretha and Melvin Williams had done more work together. They do this call and response singing method so well. Her father passed on all those traditional Church singing methods to her. It wonderful! She left us with so much. Rest in Power, Queen!!!
@@vanessajefferson8636 They were simply outstanding together. And Aretha is so missed today. There will never be another one like her. She was put on earth to sing, and sing she did.
There is not another star, singer, Entertainer anywhere in the world that could do what Aretha did and be accept it in both worlds not no one. #thequeenofsoul I LOVE YOU ARETHA, RIHP.
Aretha & guest took us to Chruch Service, l love that song as well as all of her music,. Beautiful Memories & much Respect.🎵🎶🎼💒❤💖💗❤💗❤💗👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏😇😇😂😂😂😁😍😍😍

My best friend Melvin Williams...he gon' sing...he loved singing this song with The Queen...Doug usually sung also, but not sure where he was on this night
I love to hear these two sing this song and they sing it all the time and they have sung it for years and it seems to never get old to them and that's what I love
Sitting hear balling! When she comes in with her verse tho!!!! There will NEVER be another one. No one will ever come close!!! OMG....Why'd I even listen to this? #tears
Ms. Aretha Franklin I'm saying a little prayer for you because I have so much RESPECT, and many Precious Memories . Ain't no way no one could take your place. Please don't play that song for me because it's going to bring back too many memories. Miss Aretha Franklin you are an ANGLE now. On August 16th I knew God was waiting for you. Ain't no way there will be another you. So Ms. Aretha Don't You Weep, you have Rock Steady through your whole life you were OUR Amazing Grace. I love you forever.💗
You put the icing on the cake, and your foot in batter. I could not have praised the Queen of soul, song, and spiritualism any better. There will never, ever be another. Thank you, for Getting it Right.

@mrtheoneandonly 83 Melvin has had an amazing career and still going strong...he is working on some new music now...he has been my best friend since 1999
Rest well to one of the greatest female singers that ever lived and walked the earth. There will never be another Ree. Sweet angel the fight here is over. Sing in that Heavenly choir with my Granny. Your music and legacy will never be forgotten. 1942-2018.
Words cannot express the feelings that I feel when I listen to this Legend's voice! You will be greatly missed Queen Aretha Franklin! No one can replace you!
Melvin and Aretha both R filled with the sure enough Holy Ghost that will make U test your faith and commitment to the Lord those 2 were great 👍🏻 together U will get some church up in a place with Melvin and Aretha. My my dP
Tam Jones my granny us to do the same thing.. but she would get on her piano and play bout two hours before we leave for church if I stayed over there and my mom would do the same thing on Sunday and have to lead a sing that morning what a wonderful time... and memories as a child
My best friend Melvin Williams singing this song with The Queen...he really loved her...his brother Doug joined them on this song also...not sure where he was on this night
When you take the time to listen to all the videos that Aretha has made and all the collaboration she's made and all the different places she appeared I don't know how anyone is going to stand on that stage to represent her that voice and that Deliverance was God sent and we are truly in life will miss her
If this doesn't touch you with the Queen singing and rev and Reverend Williams you don't get touched by them to something is definitely definitely wrong with you
When you see her in 2015 and then see her last pictures when she was terminal, it's quite sad to see how far she had fallen. I got a chance to see her at her last concert in Ravinia last year. She had lost the weight, half her size, but she was strong in voice. Played the piano. Was on stage for 1-1/2 hrs. It seemed that she had rebounded, but that Cancer, man, it's hard to fight.
I know you love and respect Aretha but please don't say fallen, it wasn't her fault she was sick with that horrible disease known as cancer. She didn't fall she just lost that battle and gain her wings instead.
Gday luv I watch her live at the White house every day with both William's brothers A classic Icon that's the Queen I have sad hours every day But I believe the truth .will set me free from the devil is a liar Waiting for my blessings I know Jesus hears my prayers Watching me doing his work Aretha sanging
I love this song. but my personal favorite is when she sings with bishop Paul Morton. they gave a stirring performance that night. if you were not moved all I can say is Lord have mercy.
She is the best . Someone else is coming, however she was the queen at day one in my opinion. And Vanessa bell armstrong. And Jennifer holliday of course. My two favorite ladies.
