RIP Queen Aretha I saw this scene as a child and I'll never forget it. Seeing Murphy's eyes light up as she met her hero and got to sing with her, seeing Aretha so happy to interact with a fan and do a show like this. She seemed absolutely lovely, and her impact on music will never be forgotten.
I had to find this clip for the EXACT same reason. This weekend, mourning her lost, I feel like Murphy Brown. Just excited to sing along and remember the true Queen of Soul. RIP
I remember the original airing of this episode. My mom practically laughed until she cried at Candice Bergen's awful singing. It must have been an utter joy to film this scene.
I like the scene in another episode when Candace was "spying" on Colleen Dewhurst (playing Murphy's mother) singing. The joy on Candace's face watching this amazing actor belt one out was sweet. Her face lights up watching her idols.
"Your self control was much better that time" LOL!!!! I thank God for TH-cam because I can see and hear the Queen in all of her greatness. R.I.P Queen we'll miss you terribly
Candace Bergen is not acting here--she is truly enamoured with this. R.I.P. Aretha. "Murphy" did sing this to her baby, Avery, and that was fun watching that.
Khalid al-Masri it’s actually not her virtuosity, which was surprising, but the rhythmic intensity and innovation. Not many people would play this the way she does.
Ive never seen this! I bet Candice Bergen was in Heaven to be in presence of an angel! Singing with Aretha...well, trying 😸 How wonderful that would be!!
I never realised how good of an actor Aretha was. The appearances I’ve seen her in have been so natural especially when cameos can be so wooden. I’ll miss this woman but we will always have so many ways to carry on enjoying her many talents.
Aretha’s voice and piano skills were just pure MAGIC! She was absolutely mesmerizing! Such a beautiful, graceful lady too. Her talents extended well beyond music, she was also a great cook. I saw her making delicious food with Martha Stewart and Emiril Agassi. Rest in Heaven, Queen of Soul.
Thought of this when I had heard of her passing....she had the most amazing singing AND acting chops ( The Blues Brother's too ) she could make you smile and bring you to tears with the beauty of her voice and soul. 👑💞RIP Aretha 💞👑
I attended a taping of Murphy Brown yesterday. This clip was played in tribute along with her music throughout the taping breaks. Faith Ford (Corky) was very emotional. It was touching.
I know. I remember this. Candice, You deserve all of those Emmys, but don't show up at the Grammy's LOL. What a lady Aretha was! It looks as if Candice is almost crying. I ain't Martha and you ain't no Vandella.
Definitely one of my favorite TV moments! There was an emotional connection between Ms Aretha and Candace Bergen as Murphy Brown. It was funny. I got a kick out of when she first plays the piano and says , "ooh Steinway, fancy".
Vincent!!! Get it straight!!! Carole didn't write this for Aretha!!! She sang it!!! And Aretha did so "AFTER" Carole!! no disrespect to Aretha because she bona fide this song!!! But it's about the facts!!!
No Telly, you get it right! Carole King has stated herself that it was the last song she co wrote with Gerry Goffin and Jerry Wexler and that they were asked to write it for Aretha by Jerry Wexler. Carole King sang it later on Tapestry. This can be verified here th-cam.com/video/2wXIIYZcXWY/w-d-xo.html; and here th-cam.com/video/XHsnZT7Z2yQ/w-d-xo.html
I'm so glad that clips like this are on TH-cam. It's hilarious!! I had never seen it. I LOOOOVE Aretha Franklin and miss her immensely! RIP to the Queen of Soul!
Murphy Brown Aretha Franklin this was King dream to see people from two different colors getting along as one. rest in peace Aretha Franklin and the whole world love you but Jesus love you best Emmett house
I got to see Aretha Franklin after an exhibition football game. When people were leaving I just kept getting closer and closer to her stage. It was the greatest show. My husband said he came back for me but I never say him. (X husband now) so I stayed until the concert was over and damn wasn't it worth it. I went to the security office and one of the officers said he could take me home. It was a win win as far as I was concerned. I don't remember what time I got home but my x wanted to know when I was. I said where did you leave me you moron, I just went to see Aretha Franklin. She was awesome! I couldn't care less how I was going to get home, I was there for the most important part and that was all that mattered to me!
My mom was one of Aretha Franklin biggest fan that she even looked like her. Now I know why she used to like to watch Murphy Brown back in the day. It was because of this episode with Aretha Franklin on it😄
I forgotten this episode of Murphy Brown . I love the fact that she loved rhythm and blues Murphy a little soul sister God bless Aretha wish I could go to her services
"I'm not Martha, and you ain't no Vandella." LOL! Rest, Aretha.
😂
LOL Randeman. Thank you that was more the correct saying.
She had to let her know. Shut the hell up and let me sing 😂😂
Rest in peace , Her Majestic Greatness, Aretha, Queen of Soul
RIP Queen Aretha

Amen!
I had to find this clip for the EXACT same reason. This weekend, mourning her lost, I feel like Murphy Brown. Just excited to sing along and remember the true Queen of Soul. RIP
This was one of four times Murphy paid homage to Aretha and Natural Woman during the show.
Aretha was so natural as an actress wish she had done more.
Blues Brothers.
@@Perepetespal Classic role too! She sang “Think!”
RIP Aretha Franklin - an icon, a queen , an angel.
I remember the original airing of this episode. My mom practically laughed until she cried at Candice Bergen's awful singing. It must have been an utter joy to film this scene.
Ohhh, clearly they were both enjoying one another and Candice singing what she got in at least was not so bad !!!!! God Bless them both !!!!!
You can genuinely see Candice fan girl in this. Her eyes almost tear up.
Aside from the stellar vocals, Aretha was an incredibly talented pianist! RIP Queen.
There was only one Aretha Franklin & one Murphy Brown, unique & wonderful, and invincible women.
Candice's "ah-ooh’s“ are trademark-worthy.
“You deserve those Emmy’s each of every one of them you got. But please don’t show up the Grammys.” You are missed more than anyone Aretha.
Always.
I remember this episode of Murphy Brown from years ago. Candice Bergen was a real Aretha Franklin fan as were many of us! RIP icon Aretha Franklin.
Candice Bergen didn't have to act in this scene. This was a true performance showing a genuine reaction to Aretha's genius.
I like the scene in another episode when Candace was "spying" on Colleen Dewhurst (playing Murphy's mother) singing. The joy on Candace's face watching this amazing actor belt one out was sweet. Her face lights up watching her idols.
This is my favorite episode of Murphy Brown. I love Aretha's facial expressions when Murphy started singing. I wish I could find the entire episode.
"Your self control was much better that time" LOL!!!! I thank God for TH-cam because I can see and hear the Queen in all of her greatness. R.I.P Queen we'll miss you terribly
If she never sang a note, Aretha’s piano work at 1:44 would be enough. She will be sorely missed.
Mark Zustovich so true! So underrated as a pianist.
True. And Natural Woman is piano song. It's one of those songs where the instrumentation is as essential as the vocal.
Candace Bergen is not acting here--she is truly enamoured with this. R.I.P. Aretha. "Murphy" did sing this to her baby, Avery, and that was fun watching that.
That scene of her singing to the baby was so touching, never forgot it.
Who wouldn't be?
They both seem to be enjoying the hell out of this! LOVE IT!
Aretha was Even a Great Actor!! She could do it ALL ... This scene is AMAZING!!! xoxoxoo
YES SHE COULD, SHE WAS SIMPLY AMAZING.
Aretha had a sense of humor too, hilarious episode
It's so obvious how Candace Bergan is in awe of Aretha. Love it, you deserve those Emmy's, but don't show up to the Grammy's LoL
I remember being so floored by her piano playing when it first aired.
she was always a virtuoso pianist , but nobody seemed to know . like marvin gaye.
Khalid al-Masri it’s actually not her virtuosity, which was surprising, but the rhythmic intensity and innovation. Not many people would play this the way she does.
Great underrated pianist. That’s her gospel, church upbringing right in her fingers and voice!!
And she played by ear
Ive never seen this! I bet Candice Bergen was in Heaven to be in presence of an angel! Singing with Aretha...well, trying 😸 How wonderful that would be!!
Lisa-Lin B you can tell by that smile and admiration on her face
@@carrie14u2nv like she's looking at a precious piece of gold
I never realised how good of an actor Aretha was. The appearances I’ve seen her in have been so natural especially when cameos can be so wooden.
I’ll miss this woman but we will always have so many ways to carry on enjoying her many talents.
Crying tears and laughing out loud. What a great way to live in the moment. Rest in paradise
Rip Queen Aretha. This is how I always think of America. People just being people easily united. May we see those days again.
FacheChanteDeux I wish it was always this way.
FacheChanteDeux 👍
I loved Murphy Brown! This is one of my favorite moments from the show.
Aretha had a sense of humor too, hilarious episode, Rest on Queen
Aretha’s voice and piano skills were just pure MAGIC! She was absolutely mesmerizing! Such a beautiful, graceful lady too. Her talents extended well beyond music, she was also a great cook. I saw her making delicious food with Martha Stewart and Emiril Agassi. Rest in Heaven, Queen of Soul.
There will never be another singer like Aretha. We lost the Queen of soul!
Candice felt the spirit & had to jump in lol The Queen moved folks on the inside. RIP to the 1 & only Aretha L. Franklin
I actually forgot that Candice Bergen is gorgeous. And the Aretha singing. It doesn’t get much better than this.
My favorite episode of Murphy Brown! RIP Aretha!
"Dynamite Duet", of Candice Bergen, and, Aretha Franklin! LOVE YOU, "QUEEN OF SOUL"! R.I.P. ARETHA FRANKLIN!!!
Rest In Peace Aretha, we’ll always have sweet memories...
Thought of this when I had heard of her passing....she had the most amazing singing AND acting chops ( The Blues Brother's too ) she could make you smile and bring you to tears with the beauty of her voice and soul.
👑💞RIP Aretha 💞👑
Brenda Staeb Don't you blaspheme in here, don't you blaspheme!
Well, go on, go on then...
I know right, I wish she would have done more acting roles in her lifetime. She definitely would have won oscar.
Aretha was a beautiful woman inside as well as outside.
Aretha Franklin ! Wow ! This scene was one of the best on TV! Wow!
Absolutely AND Amen And YES.
The lady is awesome!
RIP Aretha. You were class all the way!
Good bye, your Majesty.

I never actually watched this show but this scene cracks me up
Aretha was such a beautiful woman! RIP Queen!!

I'm jealous Aretha. God now gets to hear you sing with the whole choir of angels! Earth has lost a treasure!
RIP Queen of soul.
Absolutely precious. Made me tear up. 💗
Forever The Queen of Soul. RIP, Miss Franklin.

How was this written a week ago when she died just 3 days ago? Weird...
I’m shocked this doesn’t have a million views
Definitely one of my favorite TV moments! There was an emotional connection between Ms Aretha and Candace Bergen as Murphy Brown. It was funny. I got a kick out of when she first plays the piano and says , "ooh Steinway, fancy".
Loved Murphy Brown. Adored Aretha....
R.I.P. Ms. Franklin.
Kudos to Carole King for writing this song for Aretha.,
👏👏👏👏👏👏

I thought of this episode when I heard she passed.
Good Goddanm! Perfect tribute to Miss Franklin! Thank you Aretha! Rest in Joyful Peace!😘
By today's standards Aretha Franklin would have won an Emmy for "Outstanding Guest Apperance On A TV Show".
Rest in Heavenly peace
Had to see this clip after reading the news. Rest in power and glory, queen!
Rest easy Aretha
That’s what the power of a masterful performer can do to a professional actor-make them break character and glance at the camera at 4:09.
Watching in 2021. I'm crying and I don't know why.
Nice shoutout yo Martha Reeves and the Vandellas too! Classic TV!
so happy murphy brown returns to cbs next month!!! :-)
Wow.
And just to think Murphy Brown is returning to Television 2018.
Rip Aretha.
One of my episodes!
Forever our Queen of soul 👑❤ R.I.P Miss Aretha.
GODDAMN RETHA. GODDAMN.
Man Aretha could hit those notes! She's amazing.
So amazing!! Aretha darling we miss you! Rest easy...

How can something so funny make me tear up so easily? Hope you are at peace Sister Franklin.
RIP Aretha xo
I think one of the greatest gifts artists like Aretha give the world is they make us want to be better and give more as individuals.
I forgotten this episode of Murphy Brown . I love the fact that she loved rhythm and blues Murphy a little soul sister God bless Aretha wish I could go to her services
The look on Candys face. Pure gratitude. In the presence of splendour.
