I tear up every time i hear one of her songs. The band at my church played i say a little prayer for you during offering Fullview church in memphis tn.
God bless Aretha Franklin and may she rest in peace the lady have sold has passed away today. She has been a legend of gospel and soul God bless her and her family.
Im not American, i'm British but listening to Aretha Franklin sing "America the beautiful" made me cry. This is beautiful RIP Aretha you've left us on this earth the poorer heaven is welcoming your voice .
Add me to your list my friend 👋😁👍. Sing it Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin, whom my mom named me after in 1963. I miss her so much 😢💔👼 RIP Queen!!!!! No more pain or suffering for her any more. Take care of yourself and your family during this coronovirus pandemic 😷 ok. Much love from Bunn NC.👋💖😀.
Aretha had the voice of an angel,with the true American spirit. My condolences to the Franklin family.She is gone to sing the gospel songs with the angels .R.I . P
God bless you Aretha Franklin in the gift that you gave to the world with your voice and yourself you will never be forgotten you gone but not forgotten may God bless your internal soul and your spirit lives on with our heavenly father thank you Aretha Franklin
Obama has to be Aretha's No 1 fan. She has to have been his guest at least 4 or 5 times in the last yrs of her life. He treats her with the utmost respect and fondness. It's really lovely to witness.
I really love this lady my sisters name was Arletha and she was born March 25th. The same day as Aretha and I was born March 24th the day before them. Love you Aretha
Just listening to this most gracious lady with the soulful voice. The song comes alive with the goodness of God toward a nation unique in the history of mankind.
Think how long Aretha has been around, she did not have to dress half naked, or her back up singers. She did not have to tweak her butt or having fireworks going off behind her, like the majority of singers do this day and age......She was a beautiful woman and her voice will ringing in our ears for years to come.
Brenda: I feel the same at..its disgusting to see some of these " artists" perform half naked..and I've notice Beyonce is doing the same thing to keep up with some of these women😳😳
Let’s be clear, Aretha was very in touch with her sexuality and a lot of things she wore back in the day were considered risqué and garnered negative attention. If a woman wants to dress sexy and have a huge production behind her. She has every right too. I wish you women would stop living these standards men have set in place for y’all.
There ain't enough likes that could cover this! Love this infinitely! If you appreciated this rendition of America the Beautiful, check out her rendition from WrestleMania 3 March 29th, 1987 as well. Why isn't this the definitive National Anthem??
And now she's gone. Indeed "whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with all thy might ; for there is no work, nor device, no knowledge, nor wisdom in the grave whither thou goest" Ecclessiates 9:10.
#44 sounded "good. dignity, intelligence, class, taste" with no substance. He did very little. Actually he was divisive as well. Be honest. #45 is unfiltered but doing a lot in terms of governance.
I couldn't pass up the opportunity to reflect on Aretha Franklin this morning...I just couldn't! Beautiful lady with a beautiful voice. RIP beautiful.
RIP💔
My my my. Have mercy. She can sing. Sing with the angels.
I tear up every time i hear one of her songs. The band at my church played i say a little prayer for you during offering
Fullview church in memphis tn.
Such grace and dignity. Go Aretha.
God bless Aretha Franklin and may she rest in peace the lady have sold has passed away today. She has been a legend of gospel and soul God bless her and her family.
kEEP PLAYING YOUR MUSIC EVERYDAY ' Love You Lady "
Im not American, i'm British but listening to Aretha Franklin sing "America the beautiful" made me cry. This is beautiful RIP Aretha you've left us on this earth the poorer heaven is welcoming your voice .

May Aretha rest in peace. She was one of the greaest singers of time. A real lady of soul music. Thank you for sharing.
Wow the Adlib was everything!!
What a soldier never complaining about her illness.
Holder was in tears as she approached the stage and I would have been too.
Rest on my sister, by and by we shall meet again.
What a combination, nationalism and soul -- the instant she made a sound, I choked up.
***** She's still got it! Several goosebump moments in this...
Your a tone deaf buffoon then
God be the glory thank you for The Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin
Our humble President 44 adjusts the Queens footstool. WE MISS YOU QUEEN!
Lenci Pinder

She's gone, I know, but part of me doesn't want to believe she's gone. Rest in Pease. What a gift you were to all of us.
Miss you the Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin love you rest in peace
Queen Aretha!!
I love how the stagehand, Barack, fixes the step stool for her.
Yeah, he's cool like that!
About the only thing he's fixed
God bless the black American People.Here we all see pure sentiment and value at their best.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺
No one can deny the gifts of Elohim upon this one Soul!
Because when you feel the tears and goose bumps your feeling the Spirit Of Elohim (God).

She was a national treasure!
Rest In Paradise, Queen Aretha. ❤❤❤
Rest in peace Queen of Soul
Great as always! The Queen!
Sing Ree Ree love you so much God Bless ☺ you
Fantastic as always! All hail the Greatest of All Time! 😘
Thinking of all our veterans today. Humbled, grateful, pausing and planning on how to honor their sacrifices.
Obama has to be Aretha's No 1 fan. She has to have been his guest at least 4 or 5 times in the last yrs of her life. He treats her with the utmost respect and fondness. It's really lovely to witness.
Amen!
Rest in peace Aretha Franklin you'll be missed especially in the original Blues Brother movie
ALL HAIL THE QUEEN!!!!!
She's doing more of her Columbia styling on this... Good job Re!
I really love this lady my sisters name was Arletha and she was born March 25th. The same day as Aretha and I was born March 24th the day before them. Love you Aretha
I love aretha franklin
Long live THE QUEEN!
We need an Aretha Franklin stamp right now....
Amazing voice, I love forever Aretha!
Obama is so smitten with her. She was one of a kind.
If you have ears, you were smitten. All you had to do was listen. The best of the best.
I think Bill Clinton more so is smitten with Aretha.😁
Lovely..brought me to tears. God rest your soul Ms Franklin. and God bless the Obama administration, Mr Holder all the best to you.❤️
May He bless her and forgive them and heal the damage they have done.
Just listening to this most gracious lady with the soulful voice. The song comes alive with the goodness of God toward a nation unique in the history of mankind.
The Queen 🙌🏾👑

She did not have to tweak her butt or having fireworks going off behind her, like the majority of singers do this day and age......She was a beautiful woman and her voice will ringing in our ears for years to come.
Amen!!!
💯
Amen a class act
Brenda: I feel the same at..its disgusting to see some of these " artists" perform half naked..and I've notice Beyonce is doing the same thing to keep up with some of these women😳😳

Brilliant. Better Days

Amen. Solomon was deep!
THANK YOU ARETHA. YOU MADE MAKE ME LIVE!!!!!! FROM ARGENTINA, WITH ALL MY LOVE 💪💪💪💪😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I read the title as ‘Eric Holder’s funeral” as was like waymint that man’s not dead! 😂
She always knew how to put church in everything I really miss her!! 💘 you forever Aunt Reedi!!!!
Missing you Queen 👸🏽
Barack is such a gentleman. He treated Aretha just like she was his grandmother or great aunt.
Aretha, Aretha sing girl. I love your singing!!!
One word : holiness
This was the last administration in the White House with any dignity, intelligence, class, or taste whatsoever. Heartbreaking.
There's only been one since then ...
Hopefully sometime in the future another gracious, dignified couple will occupy the White House.
very well said~!
How true are your words, gosh, I long for those days...bless you💝
#44 sounded "good. dignity, intelligence, class, taste" with no substance. He did very little. Actually he was divisive as well. Be honest. #45 is unfiltered but doing a lot in terms of governance.
She was the best, no other voice like hers.
The greatest singer there ever was or will be. 🙏
Sharing this tonight at the Days hotel across from the AEB airport
On that day she paid tribute to Erick Holder and tomorrow he's gonna pay it back to her ...rest well queen .
Beautiful👑👑👑💕💖💞💝...
La nourriture de l'âme merci beaucoup de m'avoir nourri.

America's Queen. We shall miss you.
