I get the feeling Beyonce was not Ms. James choice to play her and that it was a decision made by others concerned with marketing the movie and people with connections in the industry. Nationality aside, I think Christina would have done a better job. She definitely has the right voice.
well Christina did the tribute and did an wonderful job. And she has an fantastic voice...thats why Etta James herself , shared one of here greatest hits with her, because she sees it in her.... Personally beyounce can sing true...but Christina has this soul and strength about her, that only greats have.....
@william1234bill hahaha I have to disappoint you .. I am an athlete... and I like Beyonce but her videos (and songs) are a little 'poor' -( dancing with some girls in single-color background ..boring!) I think she can do more, she has a great voice but is a little wasted.. and should sing more ballads, or songs such as Etta sang.. :)
THE HIGHEST COMPLIMENT IS WHEN ETTA REQUESTS/WANTS/CHRISTINA TO SING A DUET WITH HER OF HER OWN GREATEST HITS... BEYONCE NEED TO GO SIT DOWN AND TAKE NOTE... CHRISTINA NEEDS NO GYRATIONS AND OTHER ANTICS TO GET AND/OR KEEP AUDIENCE ATTENTION.... CHRISTINA HAS WHAT IS CALLED.....THE VOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!! CASE CLOSED. Olivia T.S.
@OliviatheSlave personally i love the two of them both very different styles and sounds..ok Beyonce does BE-ounce about a lot on stage but shes using her assets to her best advantage and why not ..if you got it flaunt it! i thought Beyonce did a fantastic job in the film cadillac records as Etta who had a special style all of her own..case not closed its still out for discussion..everyone has different tastes and opinions ..just cos you write in caps dont mean to say your RIGHT!
@OliviatheSlave you are an idiot.. both Christina and Beyonce have amazing voices, thats why they covered Etta's songs. How about you sit down and take notes from both these AMAZING women? yeah SHUT THE FUCK UP!
@francisjtsui you know theres no reason to start cussing at someone for voicing their opinions...and Etta James obviously thought Christina was the better of the 2 because Beyonce did a whole movie about her and still never wanted to sing a duet with her but Christina sings one song by her and she shares it with her...just saying...theres no need in arguing or getting rude to someone for speaking their mind you know?
My and my grandma are gonna sing this at our next family reunion. Its like the younger generation coliding with the older. Its amazing! I cant wait to do it!
ETTA JAMES was feeding Christina Aguillera vocally. and Christina was FEELING Ms. Etta James SPIRITUALLY. When the two meet, chemistry takes place and thats what happened in this selection
@XvmerrivX You and me got a LOT in common! Christina and her generation didn't ride busses for years and sing in creep dives to get their art on . . . it makes a difference.
to be honest i found out that Etta had died and the only person i could think of at the time and even now was Christina , because of you i got to know this great and phenomenal woman , remember watching the interview when you guys met and you said you wanted to be just like her and you are just like her ..rest in peace ms ETTA.
Etta , I have loved you for as long as I could recognize music ... your one of the greats... I will miss you ... your voice ... Rest Easy Etta James ... Your songs will live on ... At Last is my all time favorite song of yours ... I taught this song to my neice when she was 3 and everytime I see her we record that song on my laptop ... she loves it also ... she knows it word for word now ... she is now 81/2 now... I will miss you forever ... r.i.p.
Christina Aguilera Writes On Facebook:"Etta James was a force to be reckoned with. A true gift to music and a woman of great spirit and courage. Her raw tone and the passion she put forth on a record spoke to me at a very young age and has continued to influence and inspire me throughout my career. She will NEVER be forgotten, her voice will forever live on and she will inspire talent for generations to come."
@TheGreatAntonio2010 No, as far as I know. Also asked myself the same question cause there are many versions of Etta James and Aguilera singing together. This may be another edited version from Etta's original 1961 fused with Aguilera's 2010.
RIP Mrs. Jamesetta Hawkins, legend & queen of blues. NEVER FORGET
I ad a weird dream today and this song was playing in my head cause etta james dies and now wen i woke i read on the internet that etta james really dies today
@nanika1204 Hon, the clip wasn't about who is better than who. Why must amateurs ruin the vibe and turn every youtube clip into some imagined Diva War. Etta obviously felt that Christina was a worthy partner. Just enjoy the collaboration.
@nanika1204 Hon, 2nd graders are not yet familiar with the term and context of the word "amateur". Adults need to not sully up these fan tributes with some unnecessary comparison. That's so now what it was about. Enjoy it for what it is!
@dal4018 Oh really! Only 5 days short! She had an amazing life! Lived it to the Full....although, i feel teary when i listen to her songs today. Oh i featured this video as a tribute to her on my facebook channel, thanks. i also like the video of her on Dancing with the stars..singing "At Last" She looked amazing!
@ShannonLeeArts "Did you know her personally?" The thing about Etta James is that you can feel like you knew her personally just by listening to her. She POURED her soul into her music, and we received it through our ears. I have been mourning since I heard of her death.
This is a great tribute to Ms. Etta James. I'm sorry to hear about the loss of such a great blues legend. I give props to Christina Aguilera for having such great taste in music and appreciating such a legend. Both ladies have great voices.
I'm very sad because she was one of my favorites!!! This is my favorite song by her and I will always cherish the one who inspired me to sing and not be afraid to have a unique voice. May she rest in Peace
this isn't a duet at all :( you just mixed the burlesque cover with the original.
