Aretha's performance of "Natural Woman" at Carol King's Kennedy Award ceremony was perhaps the greatest vocal performance I've ever witnessed. It sent chills up spine. I got up off the couch and start pumping my fist in the air while I jumped up and down.

I had a girlfriend who had a very similar tone of voice to Aretha so every Aretha song reminded me of her and she also loved Aretha's music. Though we went our separate ways in our lives I always loved this woman deeply. Aretha's music was there when this girl said goodbye to me leaving for the military (Call Me) and Aretha's music was there the first time we made love (Natural Woman). When my love was in a nursing home, I brought Percy Sledge and Al Green and Aretha songs to her bedside to make her smile. And when she passed and her family chose me to place her ashes in the ground....It was Angel playing in the background. I held it together for the funeral but I cried for days after (with Angel on repeat), and for days again when Aretha passed. I think I loved Aretha almost as much as my lady.

Thank you Don Lemon for sharing your grief and your love for Aretha Franklin. I was genuinely moved by this segment when it aired last night and again watching it now. To be able to say she was my friend. Wow! Special. Very special. That was the first time I heard Aretha's version of the great Sam Cook song.

Aretha is part of the soundtrack of our nation's history. I hope she knew how much her music meant to so many people. Don Lemon's reaction reflects how a lot of us are feeling. Wonderful to see Miss Gladys and Smokey. Their music broke barriers, too. The CD I made to listen to in my car has songs from all three, as well as The Four Tops, The Temptations,The Supremes, J5, Honey Cone, and more. I must look funny - an old white lady singing along with the Queen of Soul, alone in my car, but I can't help it. I love their music and always will.

+AC. I’m with you! Back in the day in the ‘60's, before I could afford a car with an FM radio or a 4-track tape deck, this white boy would roll with KDAY & KGFJ in LA, and The Mighty XERB “Blasting Southern California with a 100,000 watt Blanket Of Soul” from Tijuana. Most of the white-targeted stations concentrated on bubble-gum pop & lame English dance hall crap. The Motown cross-over shift was just peeking over the horizon. But these R&B stations were my salvation, because the only jazz was on FM. The Mighty X and their all-night guy The Wolfman Jack, were a particular, clear-channel treasure. Aretha, and Gladys, and Smokey, and Wilson, and all of them, blasting “on the stratospheric skip” all the way to my Canadian country cousin, Gary. He has a sharp ear and memorized all of this, so he could sound remarkably hip singing the next day from his tractor seat while out mowing the hay. Gary is, in the words of the Annie Green Springs pop wine jingle of that day, “so country, he got suspenders on his suspenders”. Gritty & gitdown. Was that Martha & The Vandellas singing about her country dude?

She was such a true DIVA !!!💓💓💓💞🌺🌺🌹🌹🌹🌷🌷🌷!! Not a fake like so many entertainers of today

Celebrate her sweetie im in tears with you it will never be a Momma Queen Aretha...She is singing in heaven..we will all meet again.. Momma Queen take care of my mother she died of throat cancer Sept. 7th 2017 last year 2017 my best friend..keep each other company..

I would have loved to live in that neighborhood! Imagine when the parents got together and all the kids were around for a play date and putting in talent shows for the moms and dads 😎💕🙌🏽

This is the best interview I've heard. Dear friends of Aretha sharing with us. Smokey almost brought me to tears. Yes she is and forever shall be The greatest singer of all time. Our Queen of Soul, the Queen of Soul your music will live on. My prayers are with her family and friends.

The Queen of Soul was iconic and irreplaceable! Her heavenly talents described our most intimate life matters. She was a real caring, charitable, loving woman, sister. May she rest in peace. We have her gift of talents that enables us to continue to enjoy and celebrate what life is what life brings.

Aretha Franklin's songs are the soundtrack of my life........I can't remember anytime when there wasn't an Aretha song that was being played at home. It has been an honor to enjoy her sharing of her gift with us. God has called His angel of song home..........RIP my Queen.

Aretha was a favorite singer of my mother who has been deceased for 11 years she loved Aretha so much she give my baby sister who's 54 now, Aretha as her middle name. Aretha Franklin's music played on our home all the time as i grew up and even still today.

I love this. It has me teary-eyed, because you can tell that Don really loved her.

Fantastic interview. Thank-you very much for posting it. I echo what Smokey said, Aretha could really sing anything. She could even sing the phone book. My favorite is her 1961 Rock-a-bye My Baby with a Dixie Melody that she plays piano and sings to. It is my forever go to song. Thank God that he gave us her life. She was truly God sent.

I think it’s cute that Don Lemon was caught grooving to this clip before he went back live on air......RIP Aretha.....And Thanks for leaving us with the treasures of your musical gifts and other talents for us to cherish forever:)

Her rendention of A change gone come is phenomenal 🎶 🎶 👏 listen to it. And Master of eyes. Whew.... She blows on both!

The 1960s especially was a time that highlighted so many great musical artists from the Detroit "Motown" area. Remember playing all their songs on the jukeboxes and Aretha's songs were always the first to be selected. RIP sweet lady and thank you so much for such happy memories in my younger years.
