I would kill to hear Ariana do a more soul inspired album
Praise Beesus same!!! It suits her voice so well!
Yesss
but then people would hate on her for “trying to be black” all over again because it’s like a black culture thing
@@jebby8090 people will always find something to hate on that's why you have to ignore them
jebby I don’t think so bc she’s been doing “black” music her whole career. It’s always been Rnb inspired
I find it so weird people didn’t know she could sing like this... since nickelodeon she’s always had a talented range. Even her hit songs are hard to sing for a lot of people.
😂😂😂😂 you mean like breathing and thank you next.... anyone can sing that
@@whimsicalmarshmellow6212 claro! Cualquiera puede cantar todas sus canciones, pero sonando realmente mal.
@@whimsicalmarshmellow6212 Ari is a queen 👸👑
@@xlonelygirlxmy2810 NO SERÁ SONIDO MEJOR SI ALGUIEN CITA SUS CANCIONES
@@whimsicalmarshmellow6212 then sing it, let's see if you get successful :)
I like the part where she’s singing
@@gwen8450 u could be more polite. that girl said about arianas singing and she didn't say anything bad about this. and then u started to insult her musical taste. im sorry but this was very wrong. shame on u
bilsamils same
‘o’ no she just a a cool auto tuned whisper
‘o’ that was for hot songs not her vocals
gwen well that’s kinda rude
She is really the popstar queen of this generation. She can belt, whistle, and run riffs. She can sing a soul, jazz, pop, trap, RNB, hiphop, broadway, classic, alternative such things. She is so talented, sweet, and humble. People hate her because she has all the skills. I love her. No one can deny it.
She has potential, but there's more genres she can explore, like going REAL old school. Like OLD, OLD School. She's done jazz, but does she know Swing? It's back, 100 years later in the 2020's (even though swing was born in 1930, not 1920.) it's called ElectroSwing (Electronic/Pop+Swing). Let's see Ariana tackle that...
@@cartoonmaster2401 yeah she has yet to explore those, but she does good in the ones she did already.
LOUDER
@Chill Will did you even watch the performance? and i just see u in the other video lol u are so obsessed with her, jealousy jealousy.
@@lollll4004 I think they were making a reference to WAP
She's flat out scary talented. Especially her ability to pretty much flawlessly imitate any singer indicates just what a range she actually has. Awesome.
Olivia Connolly ..
Olivia Connolly I’ve lost maybe a couple brain cells from this
@@oliviaconnolly2536 bruh I can't 😂😂
Exactly, imitating is what she does well. Mariah says HELLO!
@@11rokerito not necessary and she found her sound now
SHE NEEDS TO SIT DOWN WITH A PIANO AND MAKE A GODDAMN ALBUM JUST USING THE PIANO AND HER VOCALS. AAAAAA SHE’S TOO GOOD.
Bianca Rojas yes!! Agreed
Not this song
IDK what about a piano and an orchestra album? The fan made videos of her voice with an orchestra backing her are incredible
Bianca Rojas Yours Truly is a little like this
olivia martinez YES!! omg ily
She’s an icon. The best artist of our generation. 100%.
jessica isakov 200%
Adele
@@nonamefound9296 Let's appreciate Ariana Grande in this video of HER singing beautifully
I love her and everything but not..rlly the best her voice is beautiful tho
She is, but still no where near Aretha singing - not even close th-cam.com/video/XHsnZT7Z2yQ/w-d-xo.html
People: Ariana is only meant for pop music
Ari: Hold all 7 of my Rings
yes
Hi! I’ve written a song called Running. It’s an upbeat song that might help if you like running along to music. It would be amazing if you could give it a listen! 😊🏃♀️ th-cam.com/video/8fCuVEe3m1o/w-d-xo.html
Her pop songs are not bad. She became awful when she ventured to semi hip hop
@@Centrioless Probably because hip hop is a main trend in the music industry right now. You don’t see jazz, ballads, or a lot of soul music selling or topping the charts. Her manager probably made her do more trendy music to keep her music relevant 🤷♀️
@@Centrioless awful? Pls bc clearly people are still streaming
I love how Ariana didn't do anything over the top with her voice or try to draw attention to her own talent with it, she just sings it simply and beautifully, in the style of Aretha Franklin, the way a tribute should be
Hannah Diane that's not in the style of Aretha.... Aretha belts.
th-cam.com/video/rXctMw2wRCE/w-d-xo.html
Matt heww
Stop ruining the moment. Aretha was being over the top in the DIVAS performance, but not really on the original track. This was meant to be a tribute not a vocal heavy overpowering performance.
and like another commenter said: "The fact Ariana was on the show because of her album dropping but yet she did this gorgeous tribute to Aretha instead of promoting one of her own songs shows how beautiful and pure Ari’s soul actually is. 💗 This was amazing. R.I.P to another legend."
Hannah Diane 🙌🏼
When she dies people are going to really realise how crazy her voice is. Now everyone is concerned in her instagram pictures, outfits and her relationships without seeing what matters. A voice like this is so rare nowadays.
You are so right, people don't appreciate her actual real talent enough . Her amazing voice!
This is si true. I also hate it when people talk about ke outfit or make up instead of appreciating her voice
ikr that's sad
Ik🤦♀️🥺🥺
Just inappropriate to phrase it like this. She is freaking 26, why would you speak of death.
2:18 HITS DIFFERENT OMG
SO REAL
Its so interesting hearing her sing other people's songs. You hear parts of her voice you've never heard. She has so much great potential for an R&B album. Im waiting on the day.
Same! She just should do it!!!
Yours truly is kinda like that
Positions says hi 👋🏻
Even though not all of the songs from the album are pure R&B, it's the closest she's ever gotten to releasing full-on R&B music.
That’s the exact reason “My Hair” stole my heart when I heard it
@@NicoleRoseMusic and love language!
I heard yesterday that Aretha Franklin's family saw this tribute and were so touched that they invited Ariana Grande to perform it at Aretha's funeral.
rodentcafeteria little did they know that she can’t sing without a serious sound system.
@@46foryounger
She can sing.
@Agatha jay Aretha Franklin's Family didn't care about your opinion 🙃
46foryounger Livestreams without a GOOD sound system.
@Agatha jay well you stated your opinion which means you wanted everyone to see and react to it sooo..
perfect. didnt oversing it, didnt try to outshine aretha. just sang the damn thing and did it beautifully. ❤️
I agree with you 99,5%...for my taste, she could have let loose just half a percent more. But again, it really is just a matter of taste and I understand why she did it this way. Beautiful.
She would never anyways
Egrin that’s her vibrato dear.... you can’t change that
I know what you mean but I was more talking about throwing in a few more riffs towards the end, she kept it very straight. Which again I'm not really criticising, just a thought :)
lauren agreed. Tasteful and strong.
it hurts me that some people really believe ariana has no talent. this is hands down one of her best musical performances. sis needs to drop a soul/r&b inspired album 😩
She has 2 actually. Her debut is almost all RnB and just released Positions (my least favorite of hers) but YT is just *chefs kiss*
@@radiantsana Yours Truly is not entirely R&B (and neither is Positions), but Yours Truly lacks the strings/synth kind of sound that Positions has. The only R&B/R&B-influenced songs from Yours Truly are Honeymoon Avenue, The Way, Piano, Daydreamin' and Better Left Unsaid. The rest of it is R&B-infused pop.
People that say that are still mad about the donut thing. I’m glad that didn’t really stick to her. She’s talented.
If this really is a true reflection of her abilities as a vocalist then I'm sorry to say up to this point in her career all that potential has gone to waste.
@@Neezabja definitely not, but this is the Ariana we wanna see actually use her abilities as she does
2:18!!!!! The build up!! Perfection 😩
It's what she did with the mic in case you didn't know. Prob did though
This part was so good
This is how you do a tribute! She didn't go crazy with runs or anything. It was PERFECTLY done. I really respect Ariana for the way she did this.
blameitonablackstar for real.. I can't say this enough I am starting to love this girl!
blameitonablackstar 100% agree!!
thats because the greatest artists are truly expressing something. She's expressing this on the same wavelength as Aretha. Its what makes any good artist, a good artist! It takes balls to be unequivocally yourself.
Ikr Ari's the only one who didn't do the high note (singers such as Demi Lovato, Tori Kelly and Kelly Clarkson did a high note before the final chorus but Ariana just moved on without any high note/notes).
Period
Ariana is actually on her vocal peak. She has a gorgeous tone, an incredible falsetto register and an decent technique. She never, in all her career, sang that good before the Sweetener era. Ariana is, on my opinion, very close to become a real Diva and a legend.
Smiley Sooso
A Mariah fan complimenting Ariana grande...I respect it.💙
Lillian Casey yus a lambinator ❤
Agree 1000%
give her 10 more years then i will call her a legend
i love her tho so dont hate my comment i just think a career of 15 years plus allows someone to have that title
I had no clue she’s that talented. Very impressive. Definitely didn’t insult the original version. Love the enthusiasm and passion she has as well.
You can clearly hear her voice's abilities when she's singing Natural woman. How this soul style fits her... I wish she could do more of it
She sang the song with such class. No adlibs to make it an Ariana song. She left it to be Aretha’s song. And she sang it so beautifully. Wow❤️
Amy Tweed Agreed this was a perfect tribute!
Amy Tweed that was a classy tribute!!!
It's Carroll Kings song but Aretha will always own it. R.I.P. The queen of soul.
I agree. There was a sweet and sad touch in there. It was like she was talking....like a poem. Very beautiful and touching.
The Dangerous Woman singing Natural Woman. Yassss! ❤
Kian Obosa whayyyyyy😂💕
Yaaaaaaaas! ❤
Kian Obosa ❤️❤️❤️
cuz god is a woman duh!
I could hear this performance 1000 times and it would still give me chills!
Eleni Paschali sameee
Then this will give you 100000 x the chills. th-cam.com/video/XHsnZT7Z2yQ/w-d-xo.html
same here
It's tickling to see a young, modern artist pay tribute to a legend with a performance like this, because it proves that great songwriting stands the test of time. Say what you want about Grande's vocal ability compared to the Queen of Soul, but Ariana did justice to this song, and she might just have brought this classic to a new generation. Thumbs up for this performance.
A shame that she did this after Aretha passed away, I'm sure she would've loved to have heard this. Ironic how people (most often) do these amazing tributes after the person has passed. Such as life.
That girl is TAAAALENTEDD
dejdej19 agreed
Pol Innocent go back listen to them so we don't care about that. We're here to appreciate Ariana Grande's talent.
Queen Chichoo agree
Pol Innocent kids? She isn’t 12 lmao she had one of the best vocals don’t compare those 3
dejdej19 talent is not everything
She executed this perfectly: respectfully, emotionally and with her own Ariana flare. QUEEN
it should have been mariah. aretha has never even heard of this bitch
Telperion There is a video about aretha franklin watching a performance of ariana grande, sooo be hater in another place.
Telperion Aretha actually said in an interview she’d love to collaborate with Ariana.
Telperion aretha has praised ariana and the show asked her to do this because she was already booked, chill
great gowns, beautiful gowns
She’s fantastic, but The Roots’ talent can’t go unnoticed. Their ability to pull off any genre of music amazes me
she is flat out flawless. i mean i really don’t understand people that try to say she isn’t talented. it genuinely confuses the fuck out of me...
True
I love that she honored Aretha by staying true to her version of the song as opposed to singing it as she normally sings. Beautiful tribute.
How does she normally sing?
Jay_G she sings beautiful but has her own style and vocal inflections that let you know it's an Ariana Grande song. Because she's a trained vocalist, she can sing in other styles and it was impressive to me that she chose to sing the song, as a tribute, closer in style to Aretha's version.
@@marquesq.4499 You're right but she's not a trained vocalist. She just started getting her training.
@@enternalmoonlight I guess I'm referring to her "on the job" training. Having started her career on Broadway years ago and because she's so talented at impressions and mimicking, she's basically a self trained, trained vocalist.
@@enternalmoonlight she's was on Broadway
This performance was way better than the one at Franklin's funeral tbh
Agreed
It wasnt her singing though. The sound system was really poor at the funeral. Makes you realize how important those kind of thing is
*are
There were a number of issues with that one...I mean one there were sooo many celebs staring back and the sound system was garbage...You can also tell the instrumental were more toned down here and background singers are more chill
I think she was nervous at the funeral. This performance is way better
2:18 Not surprised this is the most re-played part, the way she delivers that phrase is just sensational.
I really appreciate that she didn’t try to change up the song and add any extra riffs or ad libs. This was such a respectful way to honor Aretha
2:18 OMGGGGG THE BEST VOCALS EVER
Im ur 100th like
Rip button
Larryfisherboy I KNOWWWWW
Larryfisherboy stop this is about Aretha not Ariana
Especially when she had that rasp
She did a beautiful job... she didn't overshadow Aretha she honored her by not going over the top.... well done Ariana
Musicismysoul94 overshadow??? I'm confused (legit confusion). Do you mean your glad she didn't pull a Fergie?? Cause if so, I completely agree
aiden12carter like make it about her not Aretha, but she didn't an honored her.... she could have done a new song from her album but she didn't I respect that even if I'm not a giant fan of her
Musicismysoul94 she can’t overshadow with that voice no soul at all
Musicismysoul94 ah okay, I appreciate the explanation 👍🏾😊
Lol there’s no way ariana can overshadows aretha no matter how hard she tries. Infact nobody could overshadow aretha. Shes the queen of soul and high notes ffs.
I truly believe Aretha’s spirit and soul was connected to Ariana during this performance. You can see Ariana really feel every moment in that performance and not alot of artists even do that nowadays.
this video literally lives rent free in my head
even if you don't listen to her stuff, you have to acknowledge her undeniable singing talent. this girl will be an pop icon for years to come, I'm telling you
Nasida N ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely
she's so amazing
I don't care to listen to her pop stuff (I'm old). But the girl has exceptional vocal chops, great musicianship and plenty of class, and even an old rocker like me has to respect that.
Yes. I don’t love much of her music. But she has an amazing voice and I wish she would do songs like this so much more!
I wish she would come out with more r&b / soul music like this
thelifeofmook her newest album is mostly r&b its called sweetener
She has shifted to RnB in her new album, Sweetener. Her sound has really matured
Yes!
xouoɹn meanwhile the black artists who started out RnB have been coopted / forced into autotuned “pop” like rihanna, chris brown, nikki, or disappeared like sisqo, jodeci, brownstone, jagged edge and all the other groups of the 90s.
Kheru Djhuti Or Maybe that’s just what they wanted to make at the time...
Her voice blends so well with the backup singers. This was just so well done.
Her raspy voice, I never knew she could sing like this and i’m glad. Hope she sings like this more!
when I first heard Ariana I underestimate her but now I have to say it: HER VOICE IS SOMETHING AMAZING. What a talented young woman..
FlyingIntoTheStorm Listen to almost is never enough by Ariana. That’s a nice one.
Nana Smith also “emotions” cover of Ariana Grande
Same. I first heard her singing 'Baby I' and tbh I was one of those peoplel that compared her to Mariah Carey.
When I first heard her I thought she was Mariah Carey or whitney I was so confused
She is not just talented young woman she is fricking goddess and if you heard her other vocals it would blow your mind and she deserves more attention...
I think she was supposed to perform R.E.M. but they decided this last minute, when they got the news about Aretha Franklin. Ariana is such a bomb singer that they can change which song she is going to sing like this. & you know the Roots had no time to rehearse. Crazy how you can make these changes so last minute when you work with such talented people. Jimmy Fallon should be so proud of his team.
wait why wouldn't she sing god is a woman, which is her single?
Katarina she hasn’t announced rem is her next single, if she was smart she would make breathin her next single
Justice Smalls or goodnight n go
ahs because VMAs have to be the first performance
Katarina she did sings REM in the video called ariana grande predicted she would marry pete davidson 3 years ago also from jimmy fallon last night
The way she's supposed to promote her album but when she heard the news, she didn't hesitate to lay tribute to Aretha Franklin. She's an angel indeed.
why doesn’t she sing her OWN music like this???? 😩😩🙏🏼 this sounds way more polished and she could be a soul or r&b singer if they would just let her do it
She does R&B too!
Because most people dont really buy soul music anymore
From what I've heard she had actually wanted to be in R&B but the industry directed her into pop because they thought nobody would take serious a white girl singing R&B
@@synthster7416 that's fair, nobody really plays Jojo, people pretty much forgot about her
She fits r&b so so well 😭
Rest in Peace Aretha 💕
💗
Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists Rip
Amen ❤️♥️♥️
I'm pleasantly surprised at how wonderful Ariana did. An Aretha Franklin song is never easy but I believe Ariana made Aretha proud with her rendition.
i know she did. cause aretha and ariana were in touch since both performing at the soul event at the white house. actually, aretha planned on doing a song collaboration with ariana cause ariana was her favorite artist of the new generation. aretha was and will continue to be ariana's inspiration/idol so she would do anything to make her proud ♡
plus ariana was on the show because her new album 'sweetener' is coming out tonight but she chose to tribute aretha instead of promoting one of her own new songs. that shows her pure heart and soul, just like aretha ♡ she will be missed.
Agreed :) Ariana did great and hail to the Queen, Aretha Franklin. RIP to the Queen of Soul
Joy Deja King Aretha would've appreciated and loved this tribute 💧❤
this dumb broad HA! Aretha was snickering.
Imagine if she messed up and accidentally said “ You make me feel like a dangerous woman” 😂
#Awwwkwwwaaarrrd
HAHAHAHA😂😂😂
That would be terrible
I'm just shocked it fits💀💀😂
😭😭😭😭
I really hope that when the time comes, she'll do a tribute for mariah and celine as well. Ariana is one of the few voices that is almost at their level
Aretha will be greatly missed, she has left a mark in this world that we will never forget
ScarlettP But you have Shawn Mendes on your profile photo instead? Hmmmm.... 🤔🙄
Andy Saenz That’s a picture of Ansel Elgort not Shawn mendes. The profile picture has nothing to do with paying their respects to The Queen of Soul! May she rest in the sweetest peace!!!
Andy Saenz and your point is exactly?
Andy Saenz Dude, are you serious? Are you that much of a dumbass? Profile pictures has absolutely nothing to do with someones comment. That's not even Shawn Mendes either. Smh..
When did she DIE?
The fact Ari was on the show because of her album dropping but yet she did this gorgeous tribute to Arthea instead of promoting her own songs shows how beautiful and pure Ari’s soul actually is. 💗 This was amazing. R.I.P to another legend.
Aliza Yarbro
I like the way you call her Ari, like shes your personal friend.
brianjschumer Ariana doesn't mind her fans calling her Ari. She doesn't think of herself as she's higher than everyone.
Aliza Yarbro tbh anyone who does a tribute to the legends kind of draws attention to themselves (I'm not saying it's a bad thing) but people will tune in or look up the performances just because of the tribute itself. She might not be promoting her album but indirectly it does promote the artist itself. This tribute was beautiful
Ava S. Apparently they had to convince Ariana to do this tribute in the first place. She didn’t want to do it but Questlove convinced her is what I heard. Could be wrong.
Mariah Payne She didn't want to do the tribute in the first place. Because she just died and Ariana's emotions were a mess.
she put her whole soul into this performance she's so unbelievably talented
yago This Taco Bell eating bitch had no business singing this song.
@@daffyduckfan4478 pls. Ariana did wonderful and her voice really shined here. Stfu
I do not understand how people can say that this little girl does not transmit anything when she sings... A little bit nervous but her vocals sounds flawless and so much soul when she sings... 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Little girl?? She’s pushing 30??

@@oval1078 the comment was 1 year ago
She sounds great here. I wish she had a better microphone at the funeral today. I think she was nervous too. This is beautiful.
Taylor Brione don’t blame her. That pastor groping her was disgusting
What are you talking about? I'm talking about her microphone going out at the funeral and her being nervous singing for a woman she admired. I'm not blaming her for anything.
@@musingsofajay387 I don't believe that was his intention...
Taylor Brione I think that person got upset but like he groped her after she sang so it didn’t effect her performance. I knew what you meant though
Thank you for understanding what I meant! While she was singing her microphone had technical difficulties twice. I think it happened for two other perfomers too.
I respect this so much. A younger generation singer respecting and singing the song of a vocal master from a time where singing was about LOVE. It just shows Aretha’s influence over the WORLD. The point of music is to bring people together, and to inspire. That is exactly what Aretha did while breaking social and racial barriers. Much love and respect to Ariana, and Aretha Franklin.
Marco Murillo it probably felt so raw and genuine because ariana knew Aretha personally.
Agreed
Zero Zero I agree and Ariana loves Aretha and her music ❤
im still waiting for this version on spotify
If she just did one album with this kind of music, I’d proudly own it.
I'm telling you, this woman can slay with any song. She's killing it. RIP to the legend.
Pauline NS yes yes I love her voice
I love you’re comment! It equally compliments Ariana on how well she did and paid you’re R.E.S.P.E.C.T to the legend! If you are an Arianator(don’t want to assume), there needs to be more like you my friend!
Omg :(
Yeahhh yesss yasss officially totally yayyy i love her so so much❤💘💖😍😘💛👍🏻😎
DLFFL 22 I am an arianator and I feel sorry to say that you are right . Ari is getting so much hate in the last time just for clapping back at many retarded people in this fandom.
I love that she did a tastefully restrained tribute rather than selfishly overdo it with vocal theatrics. Very nicely done.
What a tacky comment.
yesyesyes.
She could never hit Aretha's notes anyways...
@@venusbaptiste8210 Ariana Grande can hit Aretha's notes FOR SURE, she has a huge range. But Ariana can't hit them with the same power as Aretha.

maaaan you could tell she put her whole heart into this
Ariana will always be dear to us here in England. She's class.
beautifully said.
Rangda Rangda especially after everything she’s done after Manchester ❤️❤️ I love her so much.
I LOVE Y'ALL FOR THIS!
she loves the UK so much, too 🥺

Never heard her voice like this before, so full and raspy. It’s a great tribute to Aretha.
Ur funny
@@julianadams5311 You’re*
Yes I was thinking the same. She has good vocal control. I’m so used to hearing Ariana’s voice sounding sweet and high.
Vocals like this are so rare these days.
Are we sure she's human? Her voice is TOO GOOD
The way she let a bit of rasp out made it so much more real 😭
queen celine Right? It's the first time I hear that rasp in her voice. So beautiful
I always felt Ariana should be a R&B singer than her current genre of songs she sings. A brilliant tribute to Aretha Franklin. RIP
billtang79 she is a pop singer but yeah she should do rnb and hip hop more 😍
Her first album was mostly R&B woth Babyface producing and co-writing songs
All her albums are pop r&b... it’s not r&b soul but it’s still contemporary r&b
She is R&B already, lol, just contemporary.
no she's definitely more pop than R&B but few of her past songs are more on the R&B side. I agree she should definitely do more classic R&B songs they suit her more.
this is one of my favorite performances of hers. Not only is her voice incredible but you can tell she really loves to sing. The emotion is written all over her face.
She’s crazy talented.
Ariana's voice is getting better now, and her voice here is so deep and she put emotions/feelings into this song. Great performance!
Boom Panes I don't get why I don't like her voice because everyone seems to. I find it kind of unpleasant.
Kim Kardashian smh how?
? She's ALWAYS had a good voice 😒😒😒
Boom Panes
Shit.. she better feel it.
She singing QUEEN SONGS
Her voice has always been this good.
so much respect. she could promote her own music, instead she tributed to aretha. one of the most selfless and kindhearted women of our generation.
Matt Murdock bruh you don’t even have proof stop pulling words out of your ass
Matt Murdock
why are you here if you don’t like her? mac miller fans are a bunch of miserable locals.
why doesnt she sing stuff like this WAY more

2:42 i can feel the emotional connection omg and the rasp in her voice i wish
hi me 2 months ago 👋
the rasp just makes this 10x better
i don't even have many words, i had to come back to this though..she really did this cover justice and we saw parts of her voice that she never uses in her own songs..people don't realize how talented and unique she really is, but she has her legend spot reserved..she's becoming a legend and we're all gonna see it much later in time
Aretha ... you were a legend..
3,000 subs with no videos correction: “are”
ALLEN SINGS she still is
Y. C. That’s why I said “are” because she/he said “we’re” a legend.
3,000 subs with no videos she still is! No one will replace Aretha and ever imitate her legacy to the music industry!
She will ALWAYS be a legend.
Hearing her sing this kind of song, this kind of music, it sounds like it was MEANT for her to sing. I love her music. But really need her to come out with a jazz album PLZ
She won't make any money 💰
@@jangiew I think she'd be okay :)
jangiew I'm sure her fans would buy whatever she did.
Shes great but it wasnt.. she lacks the power Aretha had on this track. It was beautiful but not the best.

This girl is the history of musicc💞no one else
2:42 her lil head Bob she was doing putting all that emotion into it was amazing.
This style of music suits ariana more and her voice
Andrea Duran yeah
She should do a soul album
Martha Kajwang' Her first album was soulful-ish. Has some good songs, check it out.
Roy I have. I like it but it's a bit too bubblegum pop for me. I'm talking about something grown. Maybe when she gets to her 30s or before that idk. Something classic and more critically acclaimed and more diva than pop star. In my personal opinion anyway
Martha Kajwang' I agree, those things probably come with different life experiences

@@afifroslani4674 I don't watch MTV, or listen to pop radio, so I'd never heard her sing. I knew who she was, I just had never listened to her music.
@@tiffanycarter5432 omg u have to listen to her vocals at sweetener world tour!!
OMG😭😭😭R.I.P. Aretha Franklin. She was such talented queen. She will be missed. She was the starting point for female musicians and that African American Women in the entertainment industry. One of the most iconic singers of all time. We will remember the impact on the music industry, and I hope that her influence continues on in music.💔😭😭😭😥
Beyoncé’s God Child can I be Beyonce’s god child too??
I’ll sign a Non-Disclosure
Beyoncé’s God Child d
She's getting a better breath support! A future legend singing a legend
JustTex I was just thinking, the first time I saw her as....a woman. Fitting it should be a tribute to a legendary... woman.
2:18 the way it builds up to this point in the song and the way her voice is pushed to the point of nearly cracking or being strained but still sounding so beautiful as she does it during the 'you make me feel's has me like 🫠🥹
Dangerous woman... Natural woman.. God is a woman.. She got all the woman
say what you want about her personality, but you cannot deny this woman is incredibly talented.
daria who says what about her personailty ???? ;0
daria what's wrong with her personality?
I'm not a fan of Ariana Grande but for these 3 minutes and 45 seconds, she had my utmost respect and admiration. RIP Aretha ❤
I come back to Ari's live performances every now and then and this is the first one I visit. I wish SO MUCH that she did a soul album. She's doing great as is, but I humbly think she needs better songwriters and producers than her last album, and that she needs to lean into this part of her voice much more. Cause this type of singing vibrates with ANYONE in the world. EVERYONE.
she has the r&b album tho
SHE CAN DO ANY GENRE OF MUSIC I SWEAR SO TALENTED
I deffinetly think Ariana is one of the best voices of this generation her voice is just wow
Andrea Roa agreed
Yes 😍
Andrea Roa completely disagree. I think you have only have heard her alone tsk
Liz N you sound stupid saying next Mariah Carey. She sounds nothing like Mariah did.
Steven Carter with that nasal sound. I doubt that haha
didn't plan to cry tonight but here we are
SkyReign Music only happiness that she left for this world.
Can y'all understand that I learned the song just by listening this so much...
same its my video on yt rn
She need to frickin sit down and make a album all full of legendary classic melodies
an actual person who is famous because she is talented
Edit: thank you for the likes humanity 💙
Furkan Karaer i know! Almost like she belonged in the 90s
Dave Robertson how is Trump a communist in any way.
Tori Patelli I think she said she wishes she was older in the 90s she was born in 93 but she totally belongs in the 90s
Furkan Karaer And does not have a fake ass and tits singing about how much she loved sex
