  • rip etta james

  • And there's me thinking only Etta could do Etta...Beyonce owned this one!

  • Amazing, she gave this song life!

  • This movie was a great period piece and specifically this performance was at an unmatched level. follow me @iamtaylormusiq

  • @thepokigur Cadillac Records. If you haven't figured it out by now. Cause I know I'm late. Lol.

  • i listened to both and i prefer Beyonce's version.. i bet 90% of these ppl saying etta is better didn't even took the time to listen to ette! stop being ette' dickriders

  • @AriannaBxl nobody song it better etta song it the best in her time because she was the original sound in her time and beyonce song it best because we're use to the sound of music today etta was the best in her time so it's only natural to get the best of our time to do etta i respect both artist if it wasen't for singers like etta setting that bar singers like beyonce wouldn't have a voice

  • it is church bells.

    

  • The song's name is All I Could Do Is Cry, not Church Bells

  • yes beyonce gets my vote i listened to both and she blew etta james away

  • no beyonce did better than etta sorry all you etta fans 

  • @Mzandrews2010 they aint etta fans they bey haters

  • Beyonce can sing but etta sings it better

  • Beyonce poured her heart and soul in this movie. Her singing skills captured the complexity of Etta James' passion, devotion and love.

  • What a time in history!! It just does not get any better than this! What happened? 

  • thatz mi song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • No words can describe how INCREDIBLE this movie is ,, everything comes together to create a movie that Hollywood will never forget !! WOW

  • 0:51 thought she was singing Adele for a second.. (Someone like you)

  • not a brody fan but  he did a execellent job in this movie

  • all i i can do is cry wen i hear this song

  • bravo! bravo! great job beyonce!

  • SAID IT B4 N ILL SAY IT AGAIN... JENNIFER HUDSON OR EVEN BETTER JENNIFER HOLIDAY SHOULDA PLAYED ETTA JAMES!... BUT WHEN U PRODUCE A MOVIE I GUESS U PLAY WHOEVER U WANT... NO MATTER HOW BAD THE FIT

  • @83AVILLA niether one of them resemble Etta like Beyonce does...so it wouldnt have been believable

  • @caramelredbone76 post her on her, I would like to hear her sign.

  • WoW!

  • Comment removed

  • YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS BEYONCE!

  • beyonce is the greatest!!!!!!!!!

  • Etta James is incredible, Beyonce in this movie played an amazing role and wow her voice in this film is awesome this is the type of music she should do. However Ettas version is still my fave :)

  • There is only one Beyonce, love that girl! Shout out to Beyoncefan1000, I see you be holding it down for our girl! I know you loving that 4 album,lol!

  • @nolaa64 lol you already know!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 I LOVE YOU, I'm inspired by you! You be holding our girl down! I've seen you SHUT 'EM DOWN, YOU HEARD ME, LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @nolaa64 Thanks girl!!! People be thinking that im obessesed and or possessed but, thats clearly not true!! Im just the type of person who dont mind taking a stand for TRUE/RAW talent in our generation!! I be saying stuff that most people be afraid to say lol but its all good!! Im just one of many beyoncefans who dont mind defending our bey!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 No problem Bo. Do you watch the skorpion show with kevin and makeal (i hope i spelled makeal name right) kevin be throwing shade but i know he stans for bey!

  • @nolaa64 @nolaa64 @nolaa64 @nolaa64 yeah but Kevin is the type of person who is down with you one moment but then turn his back on you the next which makes me mad sometimes because he's always been like that when it came to Beyonce!! but Makeal always has Beyonces back even though I didnt agree with him on his voews of "Run The world girls"!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 You ain't never lied. Also, I think he was very shady with the review on BTIEH, what you think?

  • @nolaa64 well honestly, the both of them are not really musically inclined so, they dont really understand true artistry if you know what I mean. Kevin's flaming ass likes lady gaga so that tells both you and me about his taste in music lol

  • @Beyoncefan1000 AGREE!

  • Out of the park.......2:36.......my feelings exactly.

  • dont forget that beyonce has the power of millions of dollars worth of audio engineering tools at her disposal, the quality of gear just wasnt the same back then, so for eatta t sing this song was great so give the grils some respect and i love beyonce and etta

  • I dedicate this song for all the women who threw away and lost a great man when they had him. I was blessed to receive one great man who was not appreciated, and very soon we will be married.She will be hearing those "Church Bells" ringing and believe me, that's exactly all she'll be able to do is "CRY"!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I LOVE THE WAY SHE SANG THIS SONG. THIS GIRL IS BADDDD...

  • i just fell in love with this all over again

  • Beyonce Can Only Act Good When Its Sing In A Movie .

  • beyonce adds more soul to the song i love it.

  • @vecooks You've proobably heard that saying of how us Beyoncefans go hard for our Bey and how we always end up on a blog,website,or any other artists site that has any negative things to say about her but, we do that because w eknow that she's one of a very few artists that actually has the REAL RAW TALENT that is now lacking thses days and times and it irks my nerves to see my generation (17-30 yr olds) are blinded by this other garbage out there!!!! smh

  • she is nice

  • I <3 beyonce:) her voice is grate!

  • i knoww right

  • she put so much emotion into this!!! sing beyonce!

  • shut up and appreciate the talent,

    and respect :)

  • cant u just hear the pain....smh....best song ever

  • @XoXoTheBoss actually I typed in Etta James and this dumb ass came on along with her lost puppy,YOU!! Get over it already!! You have NO comeback for me except, what's wrong with me and dumb shit like that! Until you grow a brain, I suggest keeping your sewer shut so you can stop with the mouth diarrhea! I was even trying to be cool by telling you that this was going to be fruitless, but that's how ignorant you are! You can't take a hint! STFU and go listen to more top 40 pop bullshit!!

  • I saw this movie and I think Beyonce did a fantastic job. I really got into her character. She made me feel a range of emotions and that, my brothers, is good acting. ;)

  • @XoXoTheBoss by the way, by saying she did a SUPERB job means that you think she is Superb. You NEVER said anything about the fact that the song was SUPERB. You don't have to say that she does legendary music, it's in your messages and weak argument that I can tell what you think. Good Day!

  • @ANGELCITY323 I see that @XoXoThe Boss was trying to enlighten you on how great of a vocalist Beyonce is but, your spoiled ass just dont get it because your tone deaf ass hate Beyonce so much that you call everything she does "digitally enhanced"!! If anybody is digitally enhanced then it's your ignorant ass!! I dont wah tmade you think that you could come on this page and say negative and untrue shit about Mrs.Beyonce and not expect your ass to get checked afterwards but, i suggest you leave

  • @Beyoncefan1000 don't get butt hurt girlfriend!! Acting like an internet tough guy isn't going to stop me from writing what I please! You don't scare me with the whole getting checked thing by the way! Suck on her ass some more and maybe you might get somewhere! Oh that's right you don't exist to her! Fail yet again!

  • @ANGELCITY323 lol keep on being the sloppy seconds that you're known to be!!

  • @XoXoTheBoss I'm afraid we'll have to agree to disagree on that. I don't think she showed anything except that her digitally enhanced voice is what makes people think she's more than she is and in turn makes her albums sell. It's not all about who sells the most it's about how good you really. What a shame!! If she put as much effort in to really singing, as she does shaking her ass she'd be great! Again, what a shame!!

  • o my im shivering

  • @XoXoTheBoss whats there to be jealous of? Please don't say her popularity, her money, or her talent and the lack there of!! I'm calling it how I see it and I'm non apologetic for hurting your Beyonce fan feelings for it! Etta James and all singers of that era made REAL music not like the garbage you here today! Get your head out of your ass for a minute and maybe you'll be able to actually listen to music that meant something, not this fake, pretending to be what she's not and will never be!

  • ACTUALLY LOVED THIS FILM. . . ACTUALLY LOVE BEYONCE. . . that is all.

  • this scene in the movie made me cry a little.

  • If It Was NOT For ETTA JAMES Beyonce Wouldnt Be Where She Is Today.Etta James Paved The Way and She's Not hating on Beyonce.When Beyonce Got Paid and The Role ENDED She Had No Right TO Perform Any Of ETTA JAMES Songs without her Consent.So Beyonce Should Follow Protocol.

  • Etta james is a hater its not beyonce fault she has the singing voice god gave it to her and she is bless to continue to use it if etta james wasnt on all them drug's and drinking that gin back then maybe she could of went far with her singing so she need to sit down and let the new generation do there thang.

  • I love the guy's expression at 2:38

  • If you haven't heard the original and this dumb bitch is all you've heard, then I guess you're allowed to be not just dumb, but deaf too! Etta blows this failure of an actress out of the water with her music!!! EPIC FAIL on Beyonce's part!

  • @ANGELCITY323 Heard the original. Beyonce did it better. Srry for you...smh. Recognize true talent, hater =/

  • niggah dis is my shit

  • @MsMs2good etta was good in her time, but why should she hate someone for feeling, and giving her music back to the people that loves it?

  • @shycherry1 well Etta claimed that she was just joking around but, apart of me tells that she meant to say that shit!! but who cares, because had it not been for Mrs.Beyonce, then a new generation would've been strangers to Ms.Etta's music!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 Thank you for that wonderful insight. Etta ought to be proud that a talent like Beyonce saw fit to bring her music alive again. I didn't really appreciate Beyonce's singing ability until I heard the Cadillac Records Soundtrack. I thought she was just another pretty face and killer body trying to make it on those attributes. I was so wrong. Beyonce could perform in overalls and boots and I would be in the front row. Much props to you Beyonce!!!

  • Chuck Barry was the KING of Rock n Roll - Lil' Richard was the Queen - Elvis was just the handsome young prince.

  • no wonder why etta was hating on b:) she sung it better than her ass.

  • and Eve

  • from me, Christina, Emma, Jane, Cher, Soraya, America, Kayleigh and Layla

  • @EtrueT7 And Veronica, Nicki, Jackie, Alaxa, Kyra, Josha, Robyn,Sabrina, Evelyn, Summer, Romy, Sunny, Danny, Dianna, Tatjana, Amy, Emily, Liz, Zenna and Genereuse,

  • F*** U Tristan

    this is for you and Alexis

    

  • @EtrueT7 Damn. How many of y'all did he screw over?

    Is this a twisted version of 'Kill Bill'?

  • hands down beyonce did da damn thang in this movie

  • I was just watching this movie and Beyonce killed Etta James, no lie!!!!! GO GIRL!!!

  • i love this I LOVE THIS MOVIE

  • u better sing bey!!! she need to make an all soul album with real music like this... now i'd buy 200 copies of that!!!!!!!

  • F U Benjamin this fucking songs goes out to u and that thing angelica..

  • esa beyonce es de las pocas que le podria interpretar la voz a etta por que tan bien es preciosa su tono de voz y no cualquiera lo logra

  • u could tell she was really feeling this song.

  • The rice rice has been thrown over there heads and Muddy Waters was like wow and so am I

  • Etta james is the ORIGINAL QUEEN OF SOUL! Barry Gordy wrote that song for her and she sang the shit out of it!!! I Love Beyonce. She is an exceptionally Beautiful actress who was playing like, and singing like ETTA.. Check out Etta James' bio, she made this record in 1960 when most black women could only get jobs as maids or cooks.

    ETTA JAMES GAVE HER SOUL SO WE NOW HAVE SOUL MUSIC.

  • Her voice is amazing, you go Bey....did a hell of a good job in this movie!

  • AWESOME! She really felt this song and gave it her all when she recorded for the movie. I could feel her emotion. AWESOME!!! (o=

  • @CadillacRecordsMovie this song is not called Church Bells.

  • I wish Beyonce would sing stuff like this more often. It shows off her amazing voice so much.

  • Me gusta muchísimo mas con el luk de los cincuenta.Y su voz es increíble.

    !!! ES UNA DIOSA!!!

  • LOVE THIS TOO...WERRRK BEY!

  • Beyonce did a good ass job in this movie i think it was one of her best performances as an actress

  • I enjoyed this film, Beyonce was good, her singing as Etta James was good, excellent film. Thanks for sharing

  • . Muddy looks juss like mii grandaddy . lol .

  • she was standinq there ,,

    WITH MY MAN !

    #Sinq It B !

  • I love this movie. I love beyonce as a singer but not so much as an actress. But in this movie she kicked ass in this role. And this song is amazing. I think she did it justice.

  • only movie that beyonce was actually GREAT in!!!

  • i lovee this song soooo much :D and i think beyonce sings it amazingly .. just listening to her gives me shivers! lovee it :D <3

  • And people have the nerve to say that she isn't as soulful as Fantasia (with her screaming ass and hardly no voice) and jennifer hudson (just sings loud for no damn reason)!!!!! Beyonce is more of an advanced and seasoned artist than the other two ladies because she has mastered music and she knows when to take you to church but she knows how to take you to the ballroom at the same time vocally and musically and plus she can dance and sing powerful at the same time!!!

  • She sings this song well...but those who even compare her to Etta no little about SOUL and FEELING in music....

  • @foreverhiswifeybabe thats quite a judgement to make about so many people...I have no desire to compare her, favorably or unfavorably, to Etta & that was not the purpose...beyonce sang this song & did this movie to honor & pay homage to Miss James. I think beyonce captured quite a bit of feeling in her rendition of this song. She sang it beautifully and did the song & Etta justice; I understand that you prefer the original but I think its unfair to claim that ppl know little about soul & feeling

  • she betta than etta james

  • i love this 

  • Scared Yo Ass ! 2:35

  • The RICE!!!!

  • I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG

  • I think beyonce made Etta looked better then she really was

  • @landrumjacob

    totally agree with u

  • @landrumjacob She just givin etta some creds man! Etta had true soul!

  • @landrumjacob absolutely

  • @landrumjacob

    I AGREE. ETTA DIDN'T LOOK OR SOUND AS GOOD AS BEYONCE MADE HER OUT TO BE. BEY DID THAT BITCH JUSTICE FOR REAL.

  • Shes incredible..

  • i love this song i got to learn this, my niece told me to listen to it and i fell in love with it...

  • i love her

  • She is amzing 

  • luv it && she rockin tht outfit :]

  • its like a plush of air hittin your mind sayin " Damn, dat bitch married my man!!!"

  • VOICE FROM GOD

  • damn it was this song and all of beyonces that made this movie one of my favorites ever, i watched it about 20 times in a week,i'd even wake up and turn i on as i was getting ready to take the kids to school,this song has so much depth and i can relate to it

  • 2:36 shows the power of this song. I literally had the same reaction when I first watched this movie.

  • C'mon ya'll..its called "I'd Rather Go Blind"...look it up..Etta James-I'd Rather Go Blind

  • @missladydiva actually it's etta james all i could do was cry

  • @mizzninibabi18 i meant to vote that up...sorry

  • check out my video of me singing this for my college music final

  • beyonce sings such good songs in movies and then writes the crappiest songs otherwise...

  • if only people in the world could imagine how hard life would of been back then trying to get started in the record business cadilac records is a film that i will cherish and it brings some home trueths too .thank-u etta and beyonce.

  • eu não gostava de BEYONCÈ nem a pau pois achava que ela devia cantar com play-back mas quando vi esse filme e ela fazendo a capela na sua primeira cena, me apaixonei pela voz dela. e nunca tinha ouvido falar em MS. ETTA JAMES, mas ao ouvir a profundidade das suas canções comecei á procurar por suas musicas e penso hoje como faz falta essas musicas que tocam o fundo da alma de qualquer pessoa. ESTOU APAIXONADO POR BEYONCÉ E MS. ETTA JAMES

  • Yall 6O People Just Dont Have No idea what Love truely is . .

  • i sure would not walk out on him i would sing 

  • this is a good song

  • All i could do was cry, B Rocks!!

  • @mzladyjae007 ummm why would she want to be an ol skool black woman anyways??? She dont have to try because no matter how modern her look, her music, and her appearance is, she still has that ol skool voice that many other female and male singers lack these days!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 gurl dats an just an opinion, she was playin tha part and it FAILED now nobody said she was tryin, she is actin and it looks a little too crazy- honey plz dnt even take offense cuz that was just my thought. its not believable, too hard, too extra.

  • @Beyoncefan1000 gurl dats an just an opinion, she was playin tha part and it FAILED. she is actin and it looks a little too crazy- honey plz dnt even take offense cuz that was just my thought. its not believable, too hard, too extra.

  • @mzladyjae007 I respect that as long as you dont offend Mrs.beyonce then we'll be ok!! but you can talk shit about Rihanna and keri hilson as much as you want because those two girls cant even match the powerful vocals of Beyonce nor her presence as an Artist!!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 honey u got ta get a life. i got one and a voice like bey too and i'll say wateva tha hell i please. thank u
