    The range is what I love on most of her songs. Her soprano alto and tenor sounds so seductive.

    This song is so dayum good!!! So many elements about it that I love. The lyrics for start. Ree Ree wrote a good one! But I really LOVE how they decided to just use Aretha’s vocals only on this one. (no backing vocals). She is her own background vocals this time. And layering them and she gets to play around with it. It really works well on this song. I also like the instruments used; for example you can hear the xylophone in this one. It adds to the personality of the song. And again, I must comment on how easily, this is one of those songs that can be danced to. (Hand dance/ball room/stepping). Aretha’s fast songs are ALWAYS great songs to cut a rug to.

    wilstebri castrato (Italian, plural: castrati) is a type of classical male singing voiceequivalent to that of a soprano, mezzo-soprano, or contralto. The voice is produced by castration of the singer before puberty, or it occurs in one who, due to an endocrinological condition, never reaches sexual maturity. are you sure you are referring to a female sir?

    The public and other professionals, during these years, were jealous of Aretha and stopped supporting her recordings. It could be heard that Aretha had gone HOLLYWOOD! Oh, of course Natalie Cole could sing. And despite being totally inferior in voice to Aretha the public wanted her to be the new Queen Of Soul. One Cincinnati, OH concert both Aretha and Natalie were star performers for their respective nights. Aretha Friday night and Natalie Saturday night. Announcer asked everyone to come back to jam with the new Queen Of Soul Saturday night. It is time for Aretha, and for a long time nothing. After about hour every light in the Coliseum, including lights in empty parts of the Coliseum and lights never used shown Miss Aretha Franklin reigning Queen Of Soul and the audience went wild. Aretha never put verbiage to the controversy. Aretha did things with that instrument that years later made prominent Divas sing backup. Aretha is a phenomenon!
