Ty Guys, The reason Carole King lost her composure was Aretha had been quite ill before this performance and had not performed in a while and to see her come out and to sing Carole's song was awesome, hence President Obama tearing up. The Kennedy Centre Honours is a very big deal and to be inducted into it is a great achievement and this night Carole was inducted and what a way to end it. Sadly this I think was one of Areatha's few final performances as she passed not too long after this and the world lost one amazingly graceful and stunning performers Our Queen of Soul RIP Aretha. Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🦘❤❤🎵🎵🎶🎶🎵🎵

If you're unaware of Carol King, you must dive into her songs!

@bigbow62 Месяц назад

Yes, Carol King is an amazing writer and a fantastic singer in her own right. She has so many major songs and is definitely a big part of music history.... this was just a beautiful performance with Aretha singing and Carol reaching down from above as if helping Aretha hit all of those high notes such a special performance ✌️🙂 ❤

@TheJohnnywbred Месяц назад

Absolutely. Anything off tapestry album

@markmurphy558 Месяц назад

Aretha was very ill (cancer) When she performed this at yhe Kennedy Center.

@bigbow62 Месяц назад

I'm a 62 year old big tough rock and roller guy & I'm sitting here crying like a little baby..... The fact is that this isn't my first time watching this.... it's more like my 50th & I'll be back for 50 more ❤ This is live musical history as it happened. 🎶 Perfect 🎶

@MerchantOfAlba Месяц назад

Yep, taking your breath away 🙂💚

@Almcosta25 Месяц назад

She was a singer who played the piano and sang with her heart, sharing emotions. She was always the humble Queen of Soul. A dear Lady who so easily brought tears to our eyes. I miss her. Ms Aretha Franklin may you rest in Peace.

@2350cmart Месяц назад

Given the circumstances, this may be the greatest singing performance of ALL-TIME!!!!

@hildat8 Месяц назад

I won’t disagree with that. It’s certainly the greatest that I’ve seen.

@lingoman1 Месяц назад

A stellar performance. The Queen of Soul still had it at 73. Both women had long careers and the world love them both. One of the best songs of the era and women's liberation.

@user-oe9hj9yl7m Месяц назад

It’s makes you cry this performance - her singing, her piano playing, Carol Kings reaction, the crowd involvement the back up singers and orchestra. Moving

@hildat8 Месяц назад

The backing vocals were killing it!

@chitownlee Месяц назад

Carol King is one of the best song writer's ever. She wrote this song for Aretha.

@2350cmart Месяц назад

Though, it was her ex husband Gerry Goffin who wrote the lyrics...as with many of her songs. Which, when you think about it, was truly amazing.

@anthonyblakely399 Месяц назад

Oh My Goodness!!! I am a mess!!! I was there in the beginning of Aretha Franklin's Life and I was there at the end of her life!!! And this performance when I saw it on TV brought tears to my eyes.....and I stood up like the people did in the audience and raised my hands in the air like I was in a Baptist Church!!!! Love the Queen of Soul!!! And I really miss her!!!! Oh My Goodness!!! Wow!!! Just amazing!!! R.I.P. Aretha!!!

Reading through the comments I see that I am not alone in getting choked up watching this fantastic performance. Respect Ms Franklin. Thank you Andre' and Dominika for sharing this with us. I watched it again and had to come back to say WOW, just WOW.

@JP-hp3sd Месяц назад

Loved your genuine reaction. Aretha was pure soul - she earned the title of Queen! I saw her live in Detroit in the 80s and she commanded the stage and took my breath away. Still remember the performance vividly to this day. Thanks again for your heartfelt reaction.

@bydavidmitchell Месяц назад

Aretha is such a goddess. I watched this performance about a year ago and was blown away by it. Freddie Mercury once said Aretha was his favourite singer in the world. That's about the best praise anyone could ever hope for, in my opinion. She's a legend and this performance was fantastic. Great reaction guys ♥

@765ketyjo Месяц назад

I've marveled too at this simply incredible performance.. she has the audience in raptures. She's captivated everyone there without exception. At her age,to still have such a powerful, evocative voice is so wonderful to witness. Great reaction too. We truly share your awesome enthusiasm !!!

@PapaEli-pz8ff Месяц назад

Makes you feel like you're attending a church service!

@heyou702pc Месяц назад

I never miss The Kenndey Center Honors on the network CBS every December. I remember seeing this and was in awe. Such a beautiful performance from a special woman who had cancer when she performed this. May she rest in peace ❤️

@frankiefourfingers6717 Месяц назад

The wonderful Aretha Franklin ❤

@markmurphy558 Месяц назад

As far as Carole King goes, she had one of the greatest selling albums of all time with TAPESTRY released in 1971. Every song on that album is a delight. If you can find it, there is a live video of her with James Taylor singing YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND, a song that she wrote to James after hearing his hit FIRE AND RAIN about the suicide of a close friend.

@MerchantOfAlba Месяц назад

Thank you 😊

@judywein3282 Месяц назад

Oh, oh, oh! What a treat! I know, too much information...but I grew up where Ms Aretha grew up. As a child she sang in the Baptist church her Daddy pastored. She could always bring you to tears with her voice. She could touch your soul. She was a humble, beautiful woman. RIP Ms Franklin. ❤ Thank you for doing this!! What a beautiful reaction!

@daleb1279 Месяц назад

An Aretha hallmark also is, she was the sole support for her boys by performing and she wasn't fond on banks, so she demanded back in the day that she be paid in cash, and the cash went in her handbag and the handbag went to the stage with her, because it was payroll for her crew and family. So almost anytime you see Aretha in a public performance like that, the handbag is there, just as it was here! Carole wrote this song for Aretha and also had a big hit with it herself.

@MerchantOfAlba Месяц назад

Oh wow, what a story. Thank you for sharing 💚

@rodneysisco6364 Месяц назад

Aretha is one of the all time great rock and roll/blues singers. So many great songs like " Chain of Fools ' , "Respect " . The blond woman in the audience is Carole King , I believe she wrote this song , along with so many others

@JeremyM2 Месяц назад

Aretha’s voice touches you in ways that are very much indescribable. This performance remains at the top for me because it perfectly encapsulates singing being the universal language and how it connects us all. Great reaction! More Aretha 🙏🏽

@kimcutts6153 Месяц назад

🇬🇧 In her 70s here and she still had it! Such a beautiful woman, inside & out. What a performance! Made me cry. RIP Aretha, your songs will live on forever. ❤💔🎵🎼🎙️

She was and will always be our National Treasure.

@user-lo1zc7gr1d Месяц назад

Freddie Mercury's favorite singer, he loved her

@hildat8 Месяц назад

The feeling that you had is what we call soul. And she is The Queen!!!

@M68BI Месяц назад

Definitely one of the greatest singers ever. The blond haired woman is great singer Carol King who composed the song. The Queen of Soul, Miss Aretha! One of the greatest performances ever!!

@victorsixtythree Месяц назад

Steven Colbert (a comedian and talk show host) was hosting that awards show and he later described how he was watching from off stage and at first thinking, "Too bad I never had the chance to see her in her prime, before her voice diminished." And then, by the end of the performance, he was absolutely blown away and completely proven wrong about her voice!

@tuffymoon3702 Месяц назад

I have chills and am crying! The thrill that is obvious on the face of Carol King shows her love and admiration for the Queen of Soul! Likewise, Aretha Franklin had that same adoration for Carol King for I'm sure it took everything she had to get through that magnificent performance with her health problems! Love this reaction! Thank you so much!

@larryhelmeczy4320 Месяц назад

A pure good emotional reaction. I often tear up watching this performance (and I'm not a woman) . This may be in other comments so I may be redundant. Carole King was asked to write a song specifically for Aretha Franklin and this is what she came up with. She also recorded her own excellent version of it on her own album. I think Carole was initially surprised because Aretha didn't perform on piano regularly. She set the perfect gospel feel with her playing.

@lisar.6670 Месяц назад

RIP ... One and only 'Queen of Soul' .. Aretha Franklin 🎹

@helenatyeo6840 Месяц назад

Freezing chills through out and can't control my emotions ,the greatest queen of soul ...that voice that power that tone etc ...on repeat !! ❤❤ Rip Aretha ..anyone not crying !! Xx

@KenBlair-jp5nz Месяц назад

I have been listening to Aretha since 1965 and we have all her records and all of Carol King records

@victorsixtythree Месяц назад

This was maybe her last great performance. Aretha Franklin passed away a few years later in 2018. Rest in Peace, Queen of Soul.

@user-oe9hj9yl7m Месяц назад

@gxl5892 Месяц назад

I have watched a hundred times and still feel those same emotions every time! Thanks for sharing your great reaction.

@dagmar.6954 Месяц назад

You have just hit the mother lode of singers with Aretha Franklin (Queen Of Soul). This lady started out singing gospel music, then R&B, but could do many genres. She had so many hits especially in the 60's-70's including "I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)", "Respect", "Chain of Fools", "Think", "I Say A Little Prayer" etc.

@judywein3282 Месяц назад

Oh yes! "Respect"!

@bashab3098 Месяц назад

@lorioday8528 Месяц назад

It is a 100% guarantee that you know MANY Carole King songs. Over 400 of her songs have been recorded by over 1000 artists. Not a "great" singer, but as a composer, she is in a class by herself. Tapestry, her 1971 LP release, is lauded by many in the industry as one of the all time best compilations ever. Each song is fantastic, some are masterpieces. Do yourselves a favor and enjoy the whole album.

@mikedineen7857 Месяц назад

That entire Kennedy center honors is a great watch.

@kurtsaxton823 Месяц назад

You really should react to some Carole King, anything off the tapestry album would be fine.

@ChuckSchickx Месяц назад

It doesn't get any better than this. 🎵🎶💯

@Lovejazz01 Месяц назад

I will always love and cherish this performance! Aretha came out and sat on the piano and took the microphone and reminded EVERYONE why she was STILL The Queen Of Soul, and why she was A LEGEND!! This is one more reason why we love her and we miss her, the world is not quite the same without Aretha Franklin! Rest On In Eternal Heaven Aretha Franklin 🎤🎤🎤🎹🎹💐💐💐💐👸🏽👸🏽👸🏽👸🏽

@hildat8 Месяц назад

She will always be the Queen of Soul. Long live the Queen!

There must have been something in the water in Detroit, growing up on a farm 20 miles north, and all the great singer's just south of me all of Motowns greats and Aretha Franklin, she never signed with Motown but was one of Detroits greats 😊 Peace ✌️ and Love ❤️ Gary 😊 in the 60's and 70's radio in Detroit was Magical. Great reaction 👍

@williamcarr7347 9 дней назад

The blonde lady in the frontrow who was reacting is Carol King who wrote the song in the 1960's. Aretha recorded it soon after, and she still sounds great over 50 years later.

@GaryNoone-jz3mq Месяц назад

Carol King must be soooo proud to have the great diva sing her song, so beautifully, especially seeing Aretha came out of retirement to do this. 😊

@jenniferworley7115 Месяц назад

Sometime you two should listen to Carole King's album Tapestry. Pure 70's magic. You will love it. Thanks for sharing Aretha. 🙂

@alchemy-oi8xf Месяц назад

Aretha's voice and music has made my life a better one.❤ It was a real pleasure to see you both being touched by the magnificence of the Queen of Soul. I believe you would also enjoy listening to more of Carole King's songs, epecially ones from her "Tapestry" album, which was HUGELY popular in the '70s. It even includes her own version of this song.

@MerchantOfAlba Месяц назад

Thank you. We'll check it out for sure 😊

May I recommend another legendary performance from Aretha Franklin? At the 1998 Grammy Awards, opera singer Luciano Pavarotti was scheduled to sing the aria "Nessun Dorma" but had to bow out at the last minute due to illness. The show had literally already started and they were quickly approaching the time when he had been scheduled to sing. They asked Aretha to step in and she agreed (she had sung the aria before) and this was the result: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-k33sINjn9o0.htmlsi=6RYpwGhjjzjn4FDq

Aretha's father was the minister at the largest black church in Detroit , back when Detroit was the automobile manufacturing center of the world , before years of democrat rule destroyed that once great city . Many of the top black singers of the day would stay at the Franklin's house when they were in town and Aretha was singing with them from about the age of 5
