Aretha FRANKLIN- "Spirit In The Dark/Reach Out And Touch" (LIVE/Paris/1971)

[schazz50]

OMG I gotta tell I was there that night in the front WOW the best concert I've ever been to in my life ....and then she shouted so.... we was going crazy I was there there were no seats we all sat on the floor....The Hippies was smoking weed, it was all in the air and just passing it, I was there then she went and got Ray Charles we had no idea.... when she sanged this song Reach Out And Touch I remember I got up and went over by a column on the side and leaned up against it and cried,

[doctafonk101]

yes lawd!!!!

[tony265982]

DID SOME TRY TO RUSH THA STAGE??

[sxyluv08]

One of my alltime fovarite singers. All hail the Queen. Ms Franklin you are in my thoughts, and prayers. LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!

[1joker88]

I love how she always gives credit to everybody.

[videoaccountforcat]

This moves me to tears. She just KILLS it. She is a goddess.

[Chimier]

Damn! That man straight up ran on her! That's what Ree does to people!

[playgirlafterdark]

There isn't anyone like Aretha, nowhere, no how!! She is one one a kind!!

[MisterCrazyLegs]

yea, i felt like I was in church....and Im glad I felt like that, even tho i dont have any religious convictions anymore. She put her foot in the ass of this song.

[miketlow]

I was just told by a Mary J Blige fan that Aretha can't move people to tears..This is yet another instance that shows how Re can work a crowd over so much so that they want to run up on stage an hug her.. I have read about this happening many times! Re has been working us over since she first picked up a mic and she earned her title as the Queen of Soul..

[tensacross]

@miketlow you have GOT to be kidding me. whoever told u that nears their ears checked.

[sonwamac]

@miketlow A mary J. blidge fan said that?..wow are THEY clueless..according to people who were at the Amazing Grace concert there wasn't a dry eye in the church that day. I like mary j. blidge but let's get something straight...the "Queen of Hip-Hop Soul" is very much a Jr. position to "Queen of Soul"

[jonahmoses]

Aretha, always sound like she at a Gospel Church Revival.

what a classy woman that can sing all genre of music.

There will never ever be a woman like her...God only made one Aretha.

What an awesome gift for the world to enjoy. Music breaks down all boundaries,... it's the one thing that we all can relate to. Regardless of religion, color or creed. Music!

[gee3dee]

[sanucues]

Aretha Fanklin from the North End of Detroit represent ..no question

[matthewsonm]

This is why Aretha is the undisputed QUEEN! Long live the Queen!

[lounisproduction]

[Akee1990]

Makes me wanna start shoutin'.

[collegeri]

lol-yea and then he denied rights and added to a war he said he would end. aretha singing is wonderful-but obama has yet to earn the chance to have her sing to him.

[BLAQUEMUSCLE]

@collegeri You guys forget B4 OBAMA there was CHENEY/BUSH !

[collegeri]

I hear you-but they never claimed to be anything other than what they were. Regardless we have Aretha to make us all feel good.

[BLAQUEMUSCLE]

Neither did OBAMA , U FORGET the party of NO - THE RETHUG-LICANS - are determined to see that nothings gets done. So when the RETHUG-LICANS come back to power u guys will get what u deserve !

[stltrainlover]

I cry every time I watch this...God seems to come in the room when Re goes into her praising!!..The same thing happened in Chicago this past April when Re ended the concert with "Old Landmark" and started to do those same notes she did in this performance and did a few steps across the stage..I was in tears!!..Long live the Queen!!!

[tirayi]

Thas right. Ain't nothin but the sho nuff Lawd ain't it?

See that power. Deep praising going on. And Re just wrecking another room!!

Lady Soul! Mother Feelgood!!!

[THERIGHTREVEREND]

She has an unfailing ability to take ANY atmosphere and change it to PURE church.

[SoulSir]

[SoulSir]

Ree puts on one hell of a performance & her captivating vocals compliments her ability to entertain, folks. Can, I get a witness who can testify my observation, please?
