R.I.P. Aretha Franklin

Everyone dies, not everyone lives a life worth remembering. She did.

RIP.
I like the quote from Westworld, said by Anthony Hopkins.

"Mozart, Beethoven and Chopin never died. They simply became their music."

Same with modern legends, too.
 
not unexpected but still a sad day for music.
 
I am pleasantly surprised by the amount of genuine respect and compassion in this thread.
 
A remarkable musician who will never be forgotten.

RIP
 
One of the best artists of the 20th century.

Otis Redding wrote Respect. She made it a hit.
 
RIP.

Her, Adele, and Whitney Houston have the strongest voices of all time imo.
 


My mom wore the needle out on this record.

R.I.P. :(
 
There was a list recently of the greatest voices of all time and it was mostly bull-ass-shit except that Aretha Franklin was at the top and, yeah, that's not wrong. It's a real tragedy the end of her reign was fraught with so much hardship both financial and medical.

Her voice is an inspiration.
 
This song makes me emotional every time. RIP Queen of Soul.



I've NEVER heard this before...

Someone's chopping onions in this thread man...
I've gotta step outside for a second.. :(
 
One of these days we're gonna wake up and all the legends will be gone. RIP
