[@christopherreid1720]

Ooh aritha there is no words to express the levels of greatness you showed in the world of music ...I love you from the bottom of my soul RIP your my queen

[@ericcauvin5836]

what a great floor for Aretha...

[@jonathanknight3342]

I have lost count on the number of times I have viewed this concert, and I never get tired of watching it! Aretha is the BEST!🏆🙏🕊

[@watergreg5836]

I'm right there with you - the live album is on constant repeat through my music app. However, what really bugs me is the audio quality, which is just too fuzzy and low.

[@wandatinsley2555]

What a beautiful moment of everlasting memory!!!!!!

[@mizcasualful]

The BEST female vocalist EVER!!!!

[@bostonteaparty3926]

LOL

[@Justaskkjames]

That she was, and even in death, NONE have come within miles. Rest on forever queen.

[@lutherwilliams8429]

this concert is dope!!! Aretha is totally awesome, and can sing with anyone!:) her voice was the greatest voice of all time!!!

[@ayirosaomihernandezirazaba90]

when Aretha sang "Spirit in the dark" with Elton John, I literally started dancing💃🏻🕺

[@gloriahenson7933]

God song n voice

[@iamDavidaRose]

Girl, You're God sent for this!! Thank YOU!

[@markdrinkwater1508]

A year after this her top high belting voice returned.

[@pmodel1]

Facts! She killed Honey and her voice was stronger

[@markdrinkwater1508]

@Tony Turner Of course it had left, there were periods even in her early career where her top was down. But certainly in the early 80s and then the early 90s, her top voice was very weak and she'd perform all her songs in a lower key, with no powerful top belts. This all changed when she quit the smokes in 93, then by late 94/95 her high belts started to return. This is no secret for anybody who knows anything about her career. So it is you who would appear dumb, or ignorant at best.

[@joshramkin3014]

Came here to see the Aretha Franklin nonsense you babble on about and i don’t see it.. I hear a weak, dry voice who is letting the backgrounders do the work. I will be heading back over to Queen Warwick now . 🤣🤣🤣 thoroughly disappointed.

[@joshramkin3014]

@@markdrinkwater1508 I expected that answer, especially from one who can’t hold a mature conversation.

Aretha & Smokie together singing was the highlight as far as duets or more that night🤎🖤 #BlackIsSoBeautiful #BornWithSoul 🤎🖤

Aretha peggy scott and shirley brown sounds so much alike I never noticed until now

[@willdwyer6782]

That's the one and only Blue Lou on the tenor sax. He was washing dishes in Aretha's diner when Jake and Elwood showed up.

[@gloriahenson7933]

The queen sang with others that could not such a lady

I’m saying, aretha sings and I’m up and about at 74 now, but she grabs me and nobody can stop me and I don’t care either

Yessir!!

[@tavii80sbaby82]

I think I may have saw 1 black person in the audience 😂😕 they lucky I love me some Aunt Ree💜

[@edwardx.winston5744]

Even with this superstar supporting cast, every time Aretha opens her mouth to sing I want all other singers to simply shut up. No one can share the stage with this woman. She’s like Godzilla in Tokyo. She crushes all comers, and everyone and everything else instantly become irrelevant.

wow is that not Elton john

[@ellisehackshaw]

Elton John was pissed. Lol

[@allthingscreative1631]

Lol she wouldnt let gloria sing either lol

[@trytobenice7234]

[@cleopatrajones2024]

She barely sang the whole show. Chain Chain was tired and she barely sang with Elton. He was trying to get her to let it rip but she held back . Terrible night. She never had real SANGERS on stage with her.

[@pmodel1]

I see what you are saying, but this is classic early 90's Aretha. She killed it because her talent and presence overrode any mistakes

[@craigwashington2251]

This one lives to criticize Aretha. That's what she does like a roving troll.

[@orawhorton8778]

Girl ,you needs to have a seat somewhere in hell,all you do is criticize Aretha,she must have had something that she got and you want!!!

[@Mudrow2010]

Not the best Aretha concert. She is best as a solo artist. Of all her singing partners, Elton John held his own with her. Rod Stewart looked and sounded pathetic, completely out of his depth.

[@donavansimms9097]

This is pathetic, this is not doing the great lady any justice. Look at Rod Stewart trying to sing people get ready, that was atrocious

[@robmorrison1043]

Your lost and clueless. Rod Stewart had the biggest hit and success with the great Curtis Mayfield written song. His version with Jeff Beck is a classic.

[@bostonteaparty3926]

You know Aretha was so boring and her singing was uneventful. No wonder I don't remember this as I would not have watched it in the first place.
