[thompsont908]

Aretha is sportin that hat

[ViewerDiscretionAdv]

@Ma1nguy "straining?" Really??? That's known as styling, brother. Huge difference.

[cmtyler]

Aretha still sounded good. Even in the upper range.

[dbassey3]

praise the lord.thank you jesus.

[NatureBoyPabbs]

This was in 1996

[Ma1nguy]

I would've played that song for her in A flat and then she would've had more room to go up in ranges without straining.

[seocom]

She is aging but that isn't all bad.. gives the voice character.

[neetrab]

@devontae69 - Of course she can still sing. I never said on here that she can't.

[neetrab]

@baphithi - My mother said a while ago that she knows how to drag a song, not me. But in this performance, I think my mom proved herself right, though.

[baphithi]

@neetrab I call it worshipping, and I call it ministering rather than dragging a song.

[neetrab]

that's a TIGHT hat.

[almightyfire1]

started off fine until she had to move to the upper register. her upper register should never be used again. its frayed

[myspace1286]

she is like an ole school crystal rucker

[devontae69]

@neetrab she has aged but to me she still can sang

[devontae69]

@HerbertReid i agree i don`t believe in funnerals or the wearing of black I`m an organist and most of the times funerrals are nothing but a show

[MAXMAN357]

Thank you Jesus!

[neetrab]

I wish she took care of her voice.

[neetrab]

@Milton754 - LOL! You're a mess...lol!! I probably would have said the same thing... I know my mom would have. My mom thinks she can surely drag a song..

[jclef614]

@Milton754 ~ I don't think she sounded bad at all. Plus in Michigan we don't wear black at "saints" funerals....it's not suppose to be a sad occassion.

[NoSuchThingAsTrinity]

@sylviacalhoun you also come into the world naked but you put clothes on...Cover thine head.

[Weatherbyrd]

Awesome!

[MrKITCHENTALK]

Clara Ward better sang

[HerbertReid]

why do you have to wear black to a funeral, i myself do'nt believe in funerals, but why does it have to be black, ?

[Milton754]

Aretha Franklin is a wealthy woman. She should of wore black. I think that she sounds awful with all that sreaming.  If I was in the audience, I would of been glad when she sat down. Saying thank you Jesus.
