      I'd read that she really pissed Etta James off. I laughed cos Beyoncé thinks she's the bees knees... Then Etta James happened to her ... 🤣 Something about a live performance she did in front of Etta and was dismissive/not crediting her when she's sat right in front of her.

    We respect this talented lady, not just for her great voice but because, in spite of her many mountains to climb, she came out on top, time and time again. She had many health issues, beat several serious addictions, had a very troubled personal life, yet always came back and succeeded. Her fans loved her because she played around with the audience and got them worked up. Her song At Last was sung by Beyonce, who played Etta in the movie Cadillac. It was based on her time at Chess Records while under contract. You should try that song and My Dearest Darling, All I Could Do Was Cry, Something's Got a Hold on Me and anything she recorded. Her son has a video saying she wasn't treated fairly. I loved your reaction. She was some lady.❤

    I´ve heard the name before, but I´m not sure I heard her sing before. Guess my butt needs a good old whooping, too. Used to be quite ignorant towards "old music" myself, when I was young. In some way getting older has made me appreciate music from before my time a lot more. Great reaction!

    She was high as hell but it made no difference!!! She indulged heavily during this time in music but still sang her ass off though!!! Talent in spades!!!

    Mr. Video. Stop it, start it, I can't handle this much cuteness coming from you. You're freaking adorable. I'm gonna roll you up and stick you in my pocket 😉 Too effing cute and you discipline yourself with that spanking you gave. You got me going upstairs in my basement and downstairs in my attic. That's enough out of you.
    Besos

    One of your best reactions, at least for me .... Etta James really surprises, greetings from Rio Tercero, Córdoba Argentina, 48 years old and I have known Etta for a long time, I love this woman and this video ......

    I know erbody's sayin ya gotta listen to *At Last* - That's the one you've probably heard and maybe didn't realize it. It's played at almost every wedding and then some. 💖🌠💖

    Good heavens I hope you can watch Beth Hart cover this song. Etta is perfection, Beth just gave it a little more for today's audience. Both amazing blues singers!

    • @monaestrada6256

      I really think Beth Hart does this song more than Justice. She takes it , rolls it, wraps it up and puts it to bed ya'll .. Beth is the best blues singer we got going on for this generation..but Leo I suggest you take a good bit before you watch that video of her with Joe Bonamassa,. It's going to simple blow you off the sofa. She's a force to deal with. It's like watching a lady snake.. his guitar playing is going to confuse you. The guy has been playing since he was 12 years old he's a child genius .. damn brilliant ! There's several videos of them try for the one with her in a dress. Lol the one with jeans is just too bold! Lol

    Damn, at 52 I've heard this song but never heard this version live 😳.
    Leo, we know what that LA LA LA is!! You got me just a laughing and I'm glad. I had to walk my trash to the dumpster behind my apartment and forgot there was broken glass in there. Well, sliced the leg open by 5 inches and it's a pretty nice gash. Didn't feel no pain, only the warm blood flooding down my leg. I doctored it up and I think I'll be fine.
    Shouting love to you and everyone from VA.

    Thanks, MV - notice how she sometimes sings without mic near - uses those dynamics... I don't thing I need to reiterate what's said below - except for my vote for "At Last" - only that I appreciate your appreciation...

    This song was originally recorded at the famous Fame studio in "muscle shoals Alabama " They have a documentary about all the music played and recorded there. It's on Netflix and it's called Muscle Shoals. Check it out.

    I never get tired of Etta. After you’re done reacting to a bunch of her songs, do yourself a favor and get a box set of hers, some whiskey, and something to smoke. I promise you it will be dope.

    She has the kind of voice where, if you knew her on a personal level, you would hope that she sang every sentence that she said to you. Her voice was, and still is, a gift to humanity. Very few voices touch the soul like hers can.

  • @Corque55
    @Corque55 3 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    Oh Yeah, At Last, one of her best. Check out Strange Fruit by Billie Holliday. Beautiful and haunting. You be showing us your arm.

    Oh Leo, this was fabulous. I’d say the compliment to this would be “ I’ve Been Living You Too Long” by the Prince of Soul, Otis Redding. Live from Monterey Pop- I was standing right beneath him at that show.
