She is my favorite female singer. No one can get down like Aretha.

Allá por 1967 ó 1968, este tema era lo más "chic" en las discotecas de Granada.

This 1968 R&B gem is my favorite up tempo song by the "Queen of Soul", her vocals are impeccable on this one, a living legend she is...

worst voice ever

[Ehangue]

I love this song! Thanks for posting it!

[diptidue]

Music had a kick to it back then. You didn't need any drug.

[REEDRICHARDS2]

Piano, Bass , melody and MOSTLY, this unique voice... this song is really outstanding!

Is this the best song ever performed by a female singer?

[bkwiley]

To many hits, Aretha, had it all, Yes I remember this song, The Voice, will never be duplicated. You know she can't perform at a concerts because it will last for day's

I am trying to remember the dance back then, anyway, remember the "Jed Clampet" it was a dance, I can still do it.

[gatoperezoso]

long live the QUEEN...the voice of god...if there was one...

[DetroitD60]

Aretha is still the reigning Queen of American Pop Music!

[krazeykriss]

This is the first single I ever bought, March 4, 1968, at Sam Goody's in midtown Manhattan. Sam Goody himself climbed up a ladder to get it for me high on a shelf! The song stll cooks.....

If there's any kind of "queen" in the music business, it's Aretha, no matter what Beyonce Knowles-nothing says about Tina Turner.

Aretha's voice at its peak was a channel of soul that explain the ups and downs of love. Great pop song.
