@Polonium211 A great Beach Music song of 1964 by Jimmy as I recall. A favorite Shag dance tune and later there was a very good cover done by Clarence Carter.
Etta was one of the Greatest Blues / Jazz singers of all time.. SHe was a Woman who had her own STyle especially when she was younger.. With her blonde hair and Sexy Sultry STyle she shimmed her way into our Hearts with that Voice and He Sass and Vitality were infectuous >.. Yes Etta.. we will miss you and Man could you sing them Blues Girl.. great song.. and ETTa just rips open her soul when she sings the Blues.. Goodnight Sweet Etta.. I love you and your spirit lives on through all your songs.
Man, she had it to the LAST. Etta, you go on, girl; keep company with angels as you go on to your higher call. We are so proud to have had you in our world and appreciate all you gave, right to the end. May The Blessings Be.
"God saw you were getting tired, And a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you And whispered "Come to me" A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working vocal chords at rest. God Broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes The best".

It's amazing the experience and emotion older music was able to capture. I was never able to relate to music from today. But the lyrics "I've got to see you somehow, not tomorrow but right now" and the lyrics " don't make me start thinking cause I might change my mind" are things I've actually experienced! I smiled when I heard it. Nowadays it's about who can hit the highest not and do the most runs. No emotion or experience.
First, you have conquered the US, after, you have conquered the world and now your music is played into universe. Etta James, you'll never die! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH...!
"Adele and Winehouse are much better and also the sales prove it." ... tea pouring down my nose ... HAHAHAHHAAAAAAA! That is one of THE most ignorant comments I've ever read ... Just saying.
@jfsh210 You could base your music choices by sales, but you gotta factor in the cost, things didn't cost what they do now, so technically you shouldn't go by sales maybe by how many albums were sold.. and its a whole different ball game. And I can't say anything by your choice in Winehouse, becasue honestly never herd a song..or album for that matter.
@jfsh210 That really is stupid. Since when is majority opinion an indication of quality?? In case you hadn't noticed, most people around you are incompetent and not very good at what they're doing. By your logic, Justin Bieber is a good singer cos girls go wild for him. He sucks so bad, it's just good marketing and hormonal 12-year olds.
I recall listening to a couple of interviews with Brian Hayes on the radio in London possibly c 30 yrs back when people started waking up to what a voice she had. Fantastic!!
@benkit49 they are fictional humunoid beings from the planet Romulus. They were one of the "bad guy" alien races from all of the Star Trek franchises. if you go and watch some old original series episodes with them, you will see that was a funny comment
I liked the the Jimmy Hughes version as I heard his version first followed by several other artist. I like to hear female versions of songs I first heard by a male artist thinking that this might be a male song to a woman.
I literally just heard this song for the first time tonight at a blues/arts function here in Alabama -- fell in love with it and had to look it up. Gorgeous. :)
I just heard this song for the first time about 3 weeks ago and can't get enough! But I heard the version by Johnnie taylor. This needs to be put on the site, it's real funky. Check it out!
great song
