Something's Got A Hold On Me

[sebascarlos]

avicii!

[Darrenc1995]

Better than Christina Aguilera and Flo Rida

[gpshaggin77]

I have a thought,if you don't like her or her music,how about keeping you bullsh&t comments to youself.She was and will always be one of the greatest motown singers there ever was and there will never be another like hands down.

[gpshaggin77]

R.I.P. Etta James,

[nashamarah]

Etta has been around a long time I listen to her when I was a teenager and she still sound good

[483danii]

amo esta canción !

[devrimecz06]

Rest in peace

[Jonnieeb]

Flo Rida - Good Feeling has 46,385,864 views, Avicii - Levels has 13,211,967 views, Pretty Lights - Finally Moving has 7,284,725 views, and this has 1,678,007 views. In my opinion, the biggest travesty is that it's not the other way round.

[hjorinmaru]

@Jonnieeb hell no she sucks, good thing she is dead

[Jonnieeb]

@hjorinmaru well thats your (horrible) opinion m'friend, but if i could do a swapsies with god, flo rida for etta james, then i would in a heartbeat

[babylovemeonemoretim]

@hjorinmaru You don't have a heart, do you? We don't need you to like her.Just respect!!! She is a legend!!!

[876slewdem]

I SEE WHERE CHRISTINA GETS IT FROM

[Minimikkel1000]

Best song ever! :P

[djqm021]

LOVE IT

[djqm021]

GOT A FEELING. LOL.

[mzcool71]

great singer, see miss etta was rockin the blond way before this new r&b chicks. this is a real soul singer not the chick adele please they praise her cause she white!!!!!!!!!! but that's amercian and white folks lol

[germo06]

simply amazing! intro gave me chills

[scotthillart]

Duffy, Winehouse, Aguilera the list goes on and on and on and on...

Generations into the future will always be able to spot the real thing.

Once they hear it there is no denying.

God damn it that voice Etta! I love you.

[TheMarkieJay]

Why does everyone hate on christina for putting so much into her music when she sings live? She's just singing like the legend that inspired her.

[nutmegger1957]

Ya know............it just occurred to me (I'm a late bloomer, I guess) where Janis Joplin got her pizzaz!

[hartzaire]

R.I.P Etta James MIss Peach.s is One of a Kind.!! #1.

[LipstickWarrior1]

R.I.P. Ms. James, you are one of a kind...Heaven is sounding so much sweeter

[RoundMidnight111]

Etta, thank you.

God Speed.

Another one in the great gig in the sky.

[fukluvimapimp01]

Happy Birthday Etta<3

[casismallville]

Wow!

[TheIrbe]

R.I.P sad that she died 5 days before her birthday,  Happy Birthday

[wtfalexblah]

RIP Etta, you were a real bad bitch. Cheers to the lovley hard earned years you wored for.

[ThreeHeadedThreep]

RIP Etta, there will never be another like you. You were the greatest. I saw you in late 67 or early 68 in the Troubador in LA, CA, you sand this song and I was amazed. I;ve been your fan my whole life, I am 63. Thanks for a lifetime of great music.

[thecameronexplosion]

Damn. She's good

[blendrax08]

ms.etta will be missed !But singers like that encourage writers such as myself to write songs that speak to the heart. Come back soon by b.j. Daplhws is also that type of song.

[EarnestTeaBass]

Happy Birthday (January 25). Hope that there's a grand celebration where you are now.

[The1baddman]

Rest In Peace and Happy Birthday,Miss Etta !!

[bluerox2255]

You are a great singer Etta James!!!!!!!! I wish there were someone like you. R.I.P Etta James.

[kaylajadeprancer]

RIP Etta James. Your music will live on forever.

[fiandrhi]

I wish I could find a woman like this!

[chencarmi]

It must love love love. .. may she rest in peace, thank you etta

[djlouisianared1utube]

DJ Louisiana Red says this is beauty and talent at best. "Gone But Not Forgotten!!!

[DonnyHannah]

-3 RIP Etta, it's just a shame there aren't as many artists like you today, after "stupid hoe" I just don't know what's music anymore..

[justexunexvideo]

She's so pretty.

[TheLex3252]

Sjysst! Att höra din röst var underbart. :)

[dexxxhunt]

Deeper than the Atlantic.3:39 thru 3:41 put a huge smile on my face : )) Rest peacefully Ms. James

[Janster59]

if there had been background vocalists it would have been PERFECTION!

[Janster59]

wow-Janis Joplin was truley inspired by this great lady

[VDxSirLeRouxxQC]

This is the reason why Flo Rida's song is so great.

[XEclipse121]

@VDxSirLeRouxxQC Die. Now.

[ssuk12]

@VDxSirLeRouxxQC flo riders song is just his crappy rapping over Aviciis song Levels. Its Levels that you really like. this song is way better than avicii and flo riders versions.

[MrMuussicc]

@ssuk12 flo ridas tune is diffirent...just vocals are same..

[J5MARLON]

People check out the album cover of Etta James Rock the House LP It has Etta James with cast on her arm and performing hard and pointing her finger at the camera man its on the album cover. I dont Beyonce would do that.

[mzladee45]

R.I.P. ETTA, YOU WILL BE TRULY MISSED!

[delakinski]

i love u Etta. Rip

[missGeorgiaaa123]

R.I.P Etta! you will be missed!<3

[CharlsEC]

i want to sing like that! how can i?

[J5MARLON]

@CharlsEC Look into your soul.

[MusicFreak1962]

Rip

[immatthewwilliams]

her voice gives me goosebumps! RIP Etta James!

[msevans1220]

a song of my youth RIP

[mslexii001]

my favorite artist of al time, she tops all the guys and gals

[yemanis415]

Is it just me, or did Etta James have SWAG! =) Timeless! Rest In Peace Ms. James! And Thank you!

[oolala53]

What an incredible voice and delivery. And what an un-bluesy sweater!

[shevshomevideos]

Wow! What a performance. Pure class.

[TheBlueslady91]

Ain't no woman can sing like this lady...then and now...God love her....

[lglglggl]

4:00 - 4:30 should be the definition of creativity!

[strandwolf]

@lglglggl Many musician/performers lip-sync'd their material. Others did their songs right...in Real Time. Such as, obviously, in Etta's instance. Recommend seeing the Barbara Lynn clips, too.

[Eamonn20a]

Uk singer Elkie Brooks done great version of this. Love Etta rip,

[sonwamac]

When I first heard Janis Joplin I thought "man that's Etta James' sound". The main stream music industry was lifting up Janis Joplin and never mentioned Etta James. I thought it was unfair at the time. But history seems to have corrected that oversight and Etta James has gotten her just due...thanks

[FugalMusic]

@sonwamac Yes, but Etta James deserves so much more. She's in both Avicii and Pretty Light's most popular songs (Finally Moving and Levels), and recently was made a part of Flo Rida's "Good Feeling." Some people don't even know Etta James is the original!

[JamCamp06]

@sonwamac

Janis didn't get to create her "I'd Rather Be a Blind Girl" or her "At Last."

[SuperVinci15]

LEVELS

[aataraxia]

she has a really punch  tks Etta

[Throwback216]

Rest in peace,Ms.James!!!

[tsujoy]

I was feeling down at first. But after 5:21 all of that is over!!! She has me feeling good now!!!!!!!!!

[quincywho]

how old was she when she recorded this?

[SeniorMojo]

@quincywho

i think she was 24 when "beat beat beat (tv show) was recorded

[strandwolf]

@SeniorMojo Her birth year is 1938. These wonderful shows were filmed in 1966. They (26 shows altogether) are available on DVD. Check out the Wikipedia page on The !!!! Beat.

[SeniorMojo]

@strandwolf

thanks. i already own the one with otis redding as host. i am looking forward to get the others dvds soon

[MikeKrysta1]

@quincywho 24

[ChunkLee13]

just a small thought but...does anyone else think her sweater is awesome?

[mandazdahomie]

@ChunkLee13 I do!

[supercool97]

R.I.P. Etta James

[MeBituman]

Etta James Brown, Over the Top

[theshaw21]

ERubyV9 well said

[kushranada]

Rest in Peace Etta James.

[ERubyV9]

Dear God: You can take Beyonce, Gaga, and Rihanna if you let us have Etta back.

[Sennnsie]

very powerful voice, impressing.

[ABANICOSANYO]

damn i grew up in the wrong damn era!.... I would trade every female R&B singer from the 80's to the present for this fine women right here!

[Stupidgirl1269]

RIP -3

[maaamushka]

R.I.P. You're a miracle forever...

[BabyDillGerkin]

Very lucky to have seen her live several times. One of the greats. The REAL greats. RIP, wonderful Etta.

[addicted2590]

Descansa en paz Etta...Gracias por tu increíble voz y por tu gran calidad interpretativa ***

[Muzikmagazinet]

R.I.P. Etta, i don´t think that Avicii´s "LEVELS" would been such a big hit if it weren´t for you.

[AshleyyKid]

@Muzikmagazinet Obviously, where would the lyrics come from?

[soulrongang]

Etta never sang it the same way twice - she was totally in the moment with all her soul. Words will never describe properly her art - it is just heard and felt. Etta - may your cosmic journey be the best possible taking you to where it is the Best.  Love to you dear beloved bodhisattva!

[IndieDanceMusic]

Thumbs up if Flo Rida/ Avicii sent you here LOLZ I NEED ATTENTION BECAUSE MY LIFE SUCKS I NEED GREEN THUMBS TO FEEL APPRECIATED!

Seriously, shut the fuck up majority of you tube and enjoy the god damn music you have been given, if you really need that much attention, get the fuck off you tube and do something with your life. I am here because I appreciate good , classic music, not that hot mess Flo Rida or that generic DJ Avicii.

[Eltono93]

R.I.P :-(

[Stawiarz1234]

This song is so awesome!

[TheSkytopz]

avicii brought me !

[SawThatComingAgain]

Thumbs up if Flo Rida introduced you to Etta James!

[WaikikiTdot]

@SawThatComingAgain It's not Flo Rida moron...it's Avicii lol

[SawThatComingAgain]

@WaikikiTdot Fuck off, bitch!

[Tnmedina85]

I can't believe many people are clueless to what real music is. I'm 26 but i was brought up on this kind of music

[Mannyward]

Absolutely amazing. We've lost a national musical treasure. RIP

[TheScothern]

JAH26 THERE IS NO NEED TO SWIER AT ME JUST BECAUSE I DID NOT LIKE HER TYPE OF MUSIC .any way i only played the song as its one of the old type of songs my brother was playing to us a few weeks ago ,at 73 its been a good long life,

[chey21guns]

RIP

[lenoxroad]

R.I.P Your music will live on.

[NickyLess]

Christina did a good cover of this in Burlesque but you just can't believe the pure soul that is Etta James :D

[smokieWTF]

She will be missed!

[argyll1854]

Outstanding yey, hey g'yon baby

[ShinNytRain]

Got shivers in my back from her. That's what the soul of blues do to you.

[namunamuchan]

[MamoruMe]

@namunamuchan -_-

[namunamuchan]

@MamoruMe :D

[iisayxjoann]

RIP. I just stumbled upon your music today, but I'm already in love with your voice.

[kaikokitosuris]

Gave me shivers. Can't believe her singing is so brilliant!

[supernovadream]

I love this song specialy when my littlebrother sing it :D <3 !

[Jamieearltek]

So who came hear because of Flo?

[diegodaudt]

@Jamieearltek flo rida sucks.

[FightIrishFan10]

@Jamieearltek No one cuz Flo Rida sucks a fat one

[musicmania15]

RIP Etta James! A true Voice And A True Legend!

[amberlabamba]

[DjaneMissGul]

Rest In Peace <3

[CreateMakeGive]

I didn't even know this type of music existed.



[IggyM]

@CreateMakeGive Welcome to the good stuff! Keep digging, the 60s-70s are where it is at. Doesn't get any better.

[operariocultural]

Maravilhosa!

[juliehorton48]

Incredible. She reminds me of Janis Joplin.

[crissymoye]

@juliehorton48 janis joplin reminds me of etta james she is the pioneer!

[JUUST16]

I discovered this the day she died, and just after I realised she was dead.. coincidence..

[MyMUSiCKCHANNELTV]

Rest In Peace Etta! You left us your great music to remember you by that will last for ages to come.

[MusicIsLove0402]

R.I.P. Etta James. Gone but never forgotten. <333

[TrishBell1]

We were blessed to have her.

[wabcamyandrey]

[LadyTai7]

[ladyekin]

-3 good bye genius lady

[srock338]

RIP from Mauris

[SelcukAskin]

RIP from Istanbul.

[RocksRevenge]

Why did Flo Rida have to ruin this song?

[missrussell1989]

@RocksRevenge He didnt ruin it...he sampled it...

[RocksRevenge]

@missrussell1989 Now whenever someone hears this song they will automatically connect it to the crappy Flo Rida song.

[FightIrishFan10]

@RocksRevenge i connect it to Pretty Lights, just because Etta James was wayy before my Generation haha but amazingggg voice

[missrussell1989]

@FightIrishFan10 True but at least some of us knows where it originated!!

[NadSha6]

RIP Etta <3

[4dgod]

RIP from mauritius

[harlequin75]

I admit I didn't know her until Aviici and Flo Rida sampled her :-( What a voice!

[hartzaire]

R.I.P Mss JamesEtta aka Etta James your hanging out with your frieds Destiny, Miss Dakotha, and Miss Raymond and the Chess Family.!!!

[YOUfirstafterME]

This is the Voice. Pain and sincerity can only create music that sounds like this. This woman was the epitome of soul, emotion, and performance. improvisation as she see fit, a backing band and a shitty mic, the real meat of jazz....thats all you need if you have IT within you. She is the Mother to all these present day emulators, these soulless voices that came after....Take note singers of today, and then give up. Mama don't play.

You were like no other. You will be missed.

[TheKelly50]

@YOUfirstafterME She was incredible...but I disagree with you- there are some great singers in this world!

[xYMV]

RIP from the Netherlands

[luckylainie]

Honestly folks, this was filmed in 1962! Think about it. Who was the original? ETTA JAMES!

[jgodar25]
