i wish there was good artists today.....there is absolutly no more taste..no more long sweet guitar solos. i wish blues, rock and soul ran the musical charts...instead we get britney spears, kesha, gaga, aguilera etc..... whats wrong with this picture?? WAKE THE FUCK UP WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess it doesn'tmatter. This is the first time I heard Etta James, She isn't a white singer.I thought she was.Like the late lena horn she might of had white relative and ancestors. But she's agood singer .She seemd to lasted long. I di dnot read the article .Whgat did she died from ?
Etta, that voice of yours reaches down deep in my soul an touches it so powerfully...What will we do without you?..Your passing leaves me with a heavy heart.
Thias is great song done by Ray Charles(1956) and the 1958 version in 1958 on Warner Bros. By Troyce Key which I like much better. Ettas version excellent because she gives it a really Blues feeling.
GOD we are just loosing all of our true soul singers that knew what they were singing about cuz they actually lived through these painfully beautiful lyrics they sung unlike all of these fake ass self proclaimed "divas" of today that don't have a clue on how to connect & relate with society anymore.
All we got left of our TRUE contributing soul vocalists who hit home are who, Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, Shirley Caesar, Gladys Knight & Patti LaBelle? Oh well, rest in Heaven's peace Miss Etta.
The genuine, the genuine true gut wrenching, ''SOUL'' singer's have but left us. They will never be forgotten for they will forever live in our heart's
Voice like a supernova, runs down your spine and give you the chills. Powerful voice like hers graces this world once every few thousand years. Buenas Noches Reyna.
Little Miss Rachel Crow from XFactor, you have that same sweet young smile in your eyes. Learn from Etta. . .Study her. . .you can carry on her spirit and guts. . .and I know you have those pipes in you to do it!
When a person puts that much effort in whatever they do....the meaning in the message is that much clearer! Ms. Etta James knew this when she delivered........many will try and duplicate, but there is only one Etta James...From a Big Fan in Hawai'i.....entertain me from heaven....ALOHA OE!!!!!!!
Dear Etta: you sure had a "Rage to Survive" (Her autobiography) You inspired many, many artists and you will continue to do so for many decades. We love you, Etta!
the best of the best artist of all time ! ; )
