Day Dreaming - Aretha Franklin (1972) (LP version)

[dreamboynyc2]

This song is so ethereal and lovely, I feel like it floats in misty and floats out the same way...very beautiful. I can listen over and over.

[jmusik12]

"you kno you're in <3 when you cant sleep....cuz in reality is finally better than your dreams." daydreaming!

[jorgepenna83]

Tem uma pegada de samba canção

[Renaissanceman1000]

Never heard the Dennis Edwards spin behind this song. Since the Temptations is my number one vocal group that's cool. I've never heard that one before, and I'm a Tempts trivia wiz!! Must have been the days before Glynn Turman

[Renaissanceman1000]

I've always loved this song. But Wow!!! You're video is awsomely beautiful! Ciao!!!

[LGKids]

[daydreamer440]

No One is better than Aretha no one...

[50honeybaby]

[msnyc3]

These lyrics must be the most all time baddest lyrics ever- I wanna be what he wants when he wants and whenever he needs it!!! And the way Ms. Aretha delivers them is mind blowing! WOW I Love this song!

[mkl62]

Another #1 hit on the Rhythm & Blues charts for The Queen of Soul. It was the 244th #1 R&B song of the Rock Era. It also hit #5 on the Top 40 charts and #11 on the Adult Contemporary charts.

[VonsTube]

Lady Aretha just outdid herself on this one! The music just takes you away!

[CHARMINONEAYERS1]

My mother used to looooove this song. I remember standing in the hall mirror and lip syncing with the brush in the mirror . I swear it was Retha in the mirror that day love this song!!!!

[brandy2133]

[yunqtule]

@notoriousgeek Hell yeah, Cam always make great Sample hits Like Mona Lisa "Girl want to have fun".

[mrusmcdoc53]

This was my theme song in high school....I was daydreaming of all the beautiful girls at Woodrow Wilson High School in El Sereno the Los Angeles suburb back in the day with this song playing on the transistor radio....1972 just like it was yesterday

[BR01097]

THIS is the song that today brought my spirits back to buoyancy. But I could have sworn I heard this back in 1970. Obviously, I'm wrong.

[maris2ish]

IT'S NICE TO HEAR THIS SONG AFTER SOOOOO MANY YEARS AND IT SOUNDS SO ...ETERNAL!

[fuel4luv28]

This is called singing for those who are too young to know better.... I don't blame you.

[abiynery]

fell in love with this song in new orleans

[mzrithickulous]

@abiynery ME TOO

[Superbook4Eva]

FYI - This was also one of Aretha's early crossovers to the Adult Contemporary chart (then called Easy Listening) and peaked at #11 there.

[Superbook4Eva]

LOVE THIS SONG! One of Aretha's best. I wish it were played more today. Heard this on an American Top 40 replay from '72 a couple of weeks ago, and surprisingly (in a good way) it was this version Casey played rather than the single version.

How did we go from this to "S-S-S-S-and-M-M" in 39 years? >:(

[achvoy]

This song takes you to another planet for almost 4 minutes! I love Aretha.

[coolymac]

NUFF RESPECT DUE 2 THE QUEEN!

[jacyharold]

Maybe you will win that lottery, babe!

[mmeresbang]

Baby making music right here. mmhmmm.

[gwranda]

Goes without saying that the singing is superb, but Bernard Purdie's drumming is also great. According to an interview I heard, parts of his playing on this were reggae-influenced because he'd just been producing Bob Marley & Johnny Nash in Jamaica.

[zarchild777]

CLASSIC!!! FROM SISTA SOUL!!! ACT LIKE U KNOW!!!

[mizzjuicy38]

YES!!!

[MsRgillespie]

This song was centered around the man she was dating at that particular time in her life. This man is Dennis Edwards one of the lead singers of the Temptations.

[HippieNiecey]

My favorite song by Aretha! I love you Aretha and can't imagine losing you. We need you and your precious music. This world wouldn't be the same anymore without the "QUEN" of soul.

[Luvnglady]

Great Video! Love It!

[mizzjuicy38]

Keep The Queen Of Soul In Yall Prayers!!!!

[akretowicz]

I remember this song being played by CKGM AM, Montreal, Quebec when I was a kid. I loved it then, and still do now. I'll bet I haven't heard this song in 30 something years now. Thanks for posting.

[stanfordgomez]

look at my mind floating away

[nubihotep]

This reminds me of some of the songs sung by Natalie Cole, sort of the same feel. Awesome classic nonetheless!

[darganx]

Why is there only 5 comments (me incl.) on here? This song is a CLASSIC!!

[Oldschool4evr]

CLASSIC ISH, IF YOU DON'T KNOW YOU BETTER ASK SOMEBODY...
