As long as she didn't kneel while singing, she deserves a little r-e-s-p-e-c-t.

It was on mute , as I was on the phone.
I saw it, but I guess that I'm glad that I missed it, after that scathing review..

If you didn't know that song you would have no idea what it sounded like in reality after that rendition....way too much scatting and garbage mixed in.
I guess you have to give her some slack.....she's 74 year old after all.

Like BB King should have hung it up two years prior to his death.
It was agonizing to watch him near the end.
It's all about the dinero, unfortunately.

What? "If you didn't know that song"?

Slack? I think not. In 74 years, I'm sure she's heard the proper way to sing it.

She is the President of the "I shouldn't sing anymore" club !
She might have been great but.....she is no longer......happens to a lot of people.

Oh I KNOW she knows the song the way it was written, but like a lot of artists they want to put their "mark" on it......with disastrous results.
I meant if the listener didn't know it.

Damn she sucked. I saw she was on and turned up the volume. After a few seconds my wife, daughter and her BF said "turn it down she sucks".

Not sure what is worse: that rendition, or idiots recording their TV with their phones in the wrong orientation.

It's Urethra, I mean Aretha, what do you expect? . She may be an icon in Detroit but trotting her out for the thanksgiving game is not necessary

Wow, I couldn't make it past 20 seconds of listening to that crap. I'm sorry, there are certain songs you don't "put your own spin" on and that's one of them. I've literally spent years of my life in shithole countries away from my family and loved ones, defending this country. Every time I hear crap like this is makes my blood boil. Freedom of speech is one thing but there are certain things you don't **** with.
