Aretha FRANKLIN - "THINK" (2003/TV Show/Part 1)

[LivvieBrundle]

This may sound kinda cruel, but it makes me laugh, how they put Kelly Rowland on the end there. A singe? Honey, please!

[egames170]

My high school band is playing that song for our halftime show.

[LayHab]

shes fat

[lisadiazsmg]

TO YOU N ANYBODY DARE TO DEFY!!!

[JackieRawe]

True!

[JorPove]

What a surprise...seeing the video I distinguish there at the beginning ,when Aretha made hers entrance ,to my brother Alejo Poveda at the percussion. Wow!!.

[harvesmoon]

Why did aretha got fat?

[MrJohn7776]

@harvesmoon  maybe cuz she get old...

[harvesmoon]

@MrJohn7776 yes maybe, I thought maybe she had an decease or something

[harigeharing]

i hate freaking oprah

[RUTHE1ONE]

ONE NAME ONLY...AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRREEE­EEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTHHHHHHH­HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

[whatigot2say]

this is the first and only time Oprah looked good. she looks better at a normal body weight than the porker look she's sporting most of the time.

[TheQueenAretha]

@whatigot2say Oprah looks great then and now, you really have such a time dealing with everyone elses image when you need only focus on your. I bet you are just as ugly on the outside as you are inside! You are a terrible person and i don't know happened in your life that made you so bitter, petty and down right vile but i feel so sorry for you.

[TheQueenAretha]

@whatigot2say You are such low life jerk! You are so jealous that Aretha accomplished greatness that Diana never did!

[TheQueenAretha]

@whatigot2say Aretha was not fat back in 1977 when the movie was film, and don't try to be slick bitch!

[julisdunkel]

it is impossible to describe the QUEEN

[Barneyjake]

Excellent as always and get a load of that piano!

[alinachen2000]

She is the person I got for my Report :)

[Charliegold2k7]

All hail the queenl... is it that she has lost her hi ranges or she's just not in the mood to rock it like she did in divas '98...

[anida600]

its the song wifth a hippopothamus and a dog!!!1

[MANOS112233]

watch?v=J0y2dDlFmLg

[darknluv]

she so sassy wit it!!!! the bessssssst!!!

[Tokopol]

It would be even better if Oprah never entered into a single camera shot.

[zomzilove]

Work it Aretha!! Aretha can still sang!! Whether she is singing contralto or Soprano, it is still fabulous!!

[Rosstacular]

think before you pick up that next donut aretha! i kid!

[4142ful]

love this woman!!!!!!! @drifting drought you def inately need some water u are a dry crazy mess to think mariah is a better singer hell even mariah knows better than that !!!!!!

[driftingdrought]

And this performance was a hot mess. She wasn't even singing the high parts of the song. She was just talking monotone through the whole song.

[zomzilove]

@driftingdrought When you are as famous and as accomplished as Aretha, you can sing a song however you like. High notes alone does not make a singer. There are some blues singers that i love who never hit high notes. Morever, a good artist knows how to freshly interpret the song of "the moment." Let's hear and see you do better than the Queen of Soul.

[driftingdrought]

@zomzilove It doesn't matter who can do a song "better." If she still had it, should would be singing the song the right way, with high notes and the power she had before. So don't give me this bullshit about her being famous and accomplished and being able to sing however she wants. That's a load of crap.

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought Oh come one this performance was NOT a hot mess stop insulting her!!!

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful It was awful and boring.

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought It's called AGE and why not go on another video and leave annoying comments? Actually why would you leave annoying comments like that in the first place? You know people are going to curse you out and yet you still do it!! TROLL....

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful Bitch, let me tell you something. You don't have to respond to my comments and start shit, but you chose to do it, so deal with the consequences, hoe. This is a message board and people are free to make comments on this stuff. So just because YOU disagree does not make me a troll. Get over it. This performance sucks. Now you are dismissed!

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought Excuse me? Did I start cursing at you? No I don't think so....so why is it that whenever people have nothing good to say that start cursing? NOW YOU ARE DISMISSED LOL

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful I don't give a fuck bitch so realize and recognize and understand the situation before you start shit with others. I said what I had to say.

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought You are the one starting crap...just don't right these types of comments anymore and you won't have a problem! OOPS DISMISSED LMAAO

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful Bitch go choke on a dick. I'll write whatever the fuck I want to write. I'm not the one with the problem, YOU are. Now as you were!

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought Now that's not very nice! You should rethink your actions!! You should think about the negativity you spread and decide to do other wise. Now as you were! LOL

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful STFU.

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought No not until you agree to leave Aretha alone...She's old....you need to stop spreading negativity...it's not good for your health or others around you....AS YOU WERE!! HAHAHA

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful Ummm...STFU. Thanks. 

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought You need to be more positive with your life...and therefore leave others alone...that's not fair to others... AS YOU WERE haha thanks for giving me that line...it's quite funny :)

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful STFU. Thanks.

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought You have so much negativity!! You need to take some classes there are things that can help! AS YOU WERE!!

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful STFU. Thanks.

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought Wow I didn't even see the Mariah comment...wow your one of those people that brings other singers down to bring the singer that you like up...oooooo someone needs to stop...Aretha>Mariah...she has more soul and more power and they call Aretha "Queen of Soul" and they call Mariah...um...wait?...wait? LOL AS YOU WERE LMAO

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful STFU. Thanks.

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought We don't need your negativity here! AS YOU WERE!!! HAHAHAHA

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful STFU. Thanks.

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought Go make comments about MC!! AS YOU WERE HAHAHA

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful STFU. Thanks.

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought Aretha is the QUEEN HAHA AS YOU WERE! LOLLL

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful STFU. Thanks.

[debgirl12000]

Still the undisputed queen of SOUL! She is the greatest soul singer in the world! No one comes close to Aretha vocally! She and Oprah are just the best!

[driftingdrought]

@debgirl12000 Actually, Mariah is the greatest vocalist. Aretha will always be beneath Mariah.

[zomzilove]

@driftingdrought  and then you woke up from that crazy dream you were having. hahahah!

[gaylolful]

@driftingdrought Wow that's kinda delusional! lol

[driftingdrought]

@gaylolful STFU. Thanks. 

[amberenergy2525]

she's so pretty <3

[teto691]

i love her voice!!!!!!!!!!

[mondoshrimpo]

listen you obviously know nothing about the nature of oprah winfrey...and as far as being a FUTURE,, i.e. NEVER peace prize winner,,Barack Obama already has one LOLOLOLL so that takes ALL credibility out of that one hahahah i would give my dog the peace prize before i would that clown,,,anyway yes you are correct ,,they are like apples and oranges but back to my original POINT ,oprah will never be as great as the QUEEN OF SOUL

[GospelAccording2ME]

@mondoshrimpo Unless you know Ms. Winfrey personally, and I'm certain you do not, it's impossible to know her true nature. The fact that you make judgements about her character based on media reports pretty much wraps up your mentality. Of course, you are entitled to your opinion. But, I must point out the obvious; Aretha is the one singing on Oprah's show...NOT the other way around. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree and allow time to determine which one of us is correct. Peace. LOL

[bh5496]

@GospelAccording2ME listen to you two chuckle heads bickering like a couple of minkless chipmunks about such a silly thing. BOTH Aretha AND Oprah are great people who have influenced the lives of millions. they just go about it different ways that BOTH work great. it's like getting into an arguement about the weel or fire being better discoveries or if micheal jackson or james brown were better. honestly this is rediculouse

[mondoshrimpo]

oh and another thing,,oprah is NOT the most influential ANYTHING,,she might influence YOU but not me and certainly not the millions of others who have no use for her,,aretha was voted by the readers of Rolling Stone as the best voice/singer in the history of music

[GospelAccording2ME]

@mondoshrimpo Please, stop making a fool of yourself. You said it best, Aretha is a national treasure. Oprah's time, money and efforts are recognized globally. Her Angel network alone has garnered millions of dollars for various charities. She's responsible for starting a school to assist countless females in Africa. I have mad respect for Aretha, but it's like comparing apples to oranges. Aretha: entertainer & Grammy winner. Oprah: philanthropist & future Peace Prize winner.

[SexyLiLLeilaniMya]

Mary J. Blige may be inspired by Aretha but she will never have what Aretha has and shares as far as I see it Fantasia & Jennifer Hudson are set to always keep her legay alive now and forever!

[DollyHeidi]

LOVE HER!!!

[mondoshrimpo]

why do they keep showing oprahs stupid face during this,,she needs to sit down and watch a real woman do her stuff and take some notes on what it takes to be great

[GospelAccording2ME]

@mondoshrimpo LMAO How ignant (not even ignorant, but IGNANT) of you. Oprah...the most influential African-American female walking on the planet. And, you think she should take notes from an R&B singer on what it takes to be great...? What really kills me is that you actually had the balls to type and post that thought. LMAO again!!! Wow.

[mondoshrimpo]

@GospelAccording2ME Oprah Winfrey hasnt got 1/1000 of the talent and charisma of aretha franklin. aretha franklin is a national treasure with a God given talent which comes along once in a lifetime..Oprah had a show that did well,,Oprah takes credit for 'doing good' for people,,she 'gave' all her audience members a new car...hahahha no,the automaker donated them and didnt cost Oprah a penny,,the people who were 'blessed' with the oprah cars had to pay taxes on them or sell them to pay the tax

[mondoshrimpo]

@GospelAccording2ME this is exactly the way oprah works,,she does things for herself and her own glory

[MrDj52]

Aretha = Aretha nothing else!!!!

[AaronF526]

I did a cover of Think on my guitar. Check it out.

[anorexiaboi]

ARETHA and BRITNEY are good,great and legend..but in diffrent genre music..

[zer0mission]

@anorexiaboi Seriously get your head checked.

[bh5496]

@anorexiaboi no no no, ARETHA is GREAT!!! XD

[tirayi]

Who wrote that....? YA'LL BETTER HOLLA Ms Franklin wrote it!!!!!! Along with that low down 1st husband Ted. I like to call this the Rev C.L Franklin version. She preaching.

[yaskam]

@anorexiaboi :-( So stupid your comment!!!!

[Teknibaal]

@anorexiaboi omg, you deserve to die for this comment

[anorexiaboi]

ARETHA FRANKLIN

[19daniel49]

Żywioł!!!!

[amdnovello]

yeah! why write 2003?

[bindybuell]

Who cares about the picture it's Aretha for goodness sake!!!!

Listen to the voice! That's why I am here!

That's all I have to say!

[Pivosquash]

Marvalous woman.

[ichitastical]

OF ALL TIME, OF ALL TIME!!!

[maidomin]

what a woman! what a voice!

[TheKocev]

Respect !!! Wonderful voice :)))

[miggy221]

love Aretha.

[SG1Mitchell]

It's funny watching some performers get older. Like Bill Cosby might sound older or lose his train of thought for a moment in concert but when it comes time to do 'The Dentist', he sounds 30 years younger. Same with Aretha. When she starts singing, she sounds no different than 'The Blues Brothers'.

[mikenoil]

My god she was so beautiful here!!!!

[sexymodelboy]

She sang this really low. I just saw her in concert last month and she sounded much better and higher. LOL

[wabnoles]

Beyonce could not hold Aretha's bra strap

[theoneandonly2503]

Nobody eve rconsidered Beyonce could do it anyway

[myoon87]

I think singers like Celine Dion and Whitney Houston are on the same level as her if not better. That is Whitney Houston before she got soaked in pool of coke.

[bagongligo17]

@myoon87

Celine Dion

not the Queen of Soul

but The Best Selling Female Artist of All time

even Oprah the Queen of talk knows it

even Larry king confirms it

[clark8301]

@myoon87 Are you a singer sweetie?? LOL. Clearly you kno nothing about good singing.

[GratefulGirl88]

piano and voice all the way

[apoliticalman]

Oprah love this lady....

[Unilka]

sorry i i mean literally a humanity's treasure

[Unilka]

my dear her voice is alitelyy a humanity's treasure... stop being a nationalist oprah, u really upset with this comment... think what you are saying woman...

[Shynder89]

FRIDOOOOOOOOOOM XXD!!!

[FreneticKey]

great

[SamCorNat]

Sing Queen!!!!

[louiseduvee]

This is one of two decent versions of 'Think' on You Tube. To me, that is so serious! The whole world, in its diversity, should be on this site. I know You Tube sold out, and I have realised that I have music they don't. What? I'd love to know what happened behind those closed doors. Thank you.

[orvgg]

I don't really like African music, but this song is very nice.

[trollgoal]

I don't think this fits the genre of 'African music'...

[BWShr]

@Trollgoal: True! Hahahaha.

@orvgg: this is soul man! SOUL. :D

[DoYouSmokePaul]

fucking moron.. seriously.

[oneloveatatime]

I love this, thank you for posting

[Shaper85]

There is other 'think' footage shown there after the live performance. I wish someone would post that up :(

[MrStyle23]

GO ARETHA! THE QUEEN!

[bingklat]

ARETHA! ARETHA!!!!! You are my Savior!!

[bingklat]

HAHAHAHA..

I need not try because I don't worship Aretha. What on earth made you think I worship her?

SAVIOR - A person who rescues another from harm, danger, depression or loss.

You're clearly out of context. We're talking about ARETHA here, not JESUS.

[MONRAYDAYIZBACK]

music can bring you out of depression, help you do with loss, and help u realize you may be putting urself in harmsway or in danger, and whether its worth to put urself in that position

[theblueangel28]

she was in really good voice

blow it away Mama

[tirayi]

HEY!!!!!

You wrote it Re and it sure do sound SWEET all these years later.

AMEN!!!!!

[oprahdiva]

i remember this oprah show.this is when mary j was on here too and oprah had on that fur coat and she was saying the queen is cold.
