Lyrics:
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Look at my mind floating away
He's the kind of guy that would say
Hey, baby let's get away
Let's go some place, huh
Where I don't care
He's the kind of guy that you give your everything
And trust your heart, share all of your love
Till death do you part
I want to be what he wants
When he wants it and whenever he needs it
And when he's lonesome and feeling love starved
I'll be there to feed it
I'm loving' him a little bit more each day
Turns me right on when I hear him say
Hey, baby, let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Hey baby let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
I want to be what he wants when he wants it
And whenever he needs it
And when he's lonesome and feeling love starved
I'll be there to feed it
Loving him a little bit more each day
It turns me right on when I hear him say
Hey, baby, let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Hey baby let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Hey, baby, let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Hey baby let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Look at my mind floating away
Day... dreaming
Day... dreaming
*******************
An icon of 20th and 21st century music, the voice of the civil rights movement, and the undisputed Queen of Soul-there is only one Aretha Franklin. In her incredible six-decade career, Aretha evolved from teenage gospel star to reigning pop and R&B diva, recording classics like “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain Of Fools”, “Think” (lyrics by Aretha Franklin), definitive versions of the songs “Respect” and “I Say a Little Prayer”, and global hits like “Freeway Of Love,” “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”, and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.”
Altogether, 112 of her singles reached the charts, with 20 No. 1 R&B singles, the most ever by a female artist. She won 18 Grammy Awards (including the first eight trophies for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance) and, out of recognition for her for indelible contribution to American music and culture, received both the Presidential Medal Of Freedom and a Pulitzer Prize.

When I was a little girl we didnt have a lot of money but one Christmas I got a radio. I used to open the window to my room in our apartment and listen to Aretha on the local station. And Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly". Those womens' words touched my heart at such an early stage.

Aretha allowed the background singers to absolutely SHINE on this track. That’s one thing I loved about her, her background singers all had distinctly, powerful voices. The way their voices fade out into the orchestration is GENIUS and magical.
@beigenegress2979
Ай бұрын
Aretha wasn’t afraid to let her background singer do it. Her sisters Irma and Carolyn were her backup and I think Cissy Houston may have recorded backing vocals with Aretha (and Luther, and many others). Fun fact: While the song “Respect” was written by legendary songwriter Carol King, but one of Aretha’s sisters suggested the Re,Re,Re,ReSPECT part as a addition when they recorded it!

In fact, she did win the grammy. But out of loyalty she gave it to Esther Phillips, "who deserved it more", in Aretha's own words. Esther was nominated for her album "Home is where the hatred is", but Aretha won. Esther just came out of rehab and this was a beautiful gesture from Aretha. She wrote it with Temptation Dennis Edwards in mind.

yeah they had talent. today they dont. stereo isnt used. a sound is what it is, using a plug in. and haas is used on a vocal to make it "sound fat" and they sell your generation the record. and its crap. I defy ANY "beat maker" to attempt to use a plug in and make the drums all on one side and the bass on another and see how it comes out. it will sound like backside booty, because plug ins and digital recording cant match analog.
It sounded great on a transistor radio. And then 40 or 50 years later you hear it on headphones and… Wow. The flute, the subtle guitar licks. What a song

YOU must be from Tina Turner’s hometown of Nutbush Tennessee bec Aretha Franklin was actually born in Memphis Tennessee, but when very young, her family migrated north (as a part of the African American “Great Migration” out of the South) to Buffalo NY (close the the Canadian border) but spent most of her childhood In Detroit Michigan.
I can hear this song over and over and over I love this song rest in paradise Aretha🙏🏾😍
The queen of soul music who can play and sing write, and sing like nobody’s business! ♥️
