FIRST TIME HEARING Etta James - I'd Rather Go Blind REACTION

[@lphillips6204]

When Ms Etta recorded this she couldn't imagine that 2 brothers would be loving her music so much over 50 years in the future...with thousands of people all over the world watching them...watching her for the first time on something called youtube...on something called the internet...on something called a laptop. A true legend literally transcending space, time and technology. Thank you Queen Etta

She passed away a few years ago. She was magical. “ At Last” has been sung millions of times but NO one sings it like Etta, no one.

I agree one of the greats

[@evilvolts]

the only one close to Etta is a cover of this song I'd rather go blind by Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa

[@rebeccakeeton3158]

NO ONE!!! PERIODT!!!! I was straight up upset at the Beyoncé cover!! There are just some songs that should never be covered!!

It's hard to explain but Etta James was the beginning. Following her style, countless female vocalists found fame and fortune. But there's only one Etta. She's gonna shine like the brightest star when all the followers have faded...

"At 22, the twins dropped their beat on the world earlier than Tim expected." The Chicago Times article is a real tip of the hat. You are doing a great job. Finish college too,ok? You'll be glad you did, later. You can be your own managers

[@laurabailey1054]

Never too late to finish college

[@greendragonpublishing]

Yes, please finish college when and how you can. College can open doors when others shut, and just gives you a wider selection of opportunities.

[@traciekinser8554]

Less likely to get screwed over financially, too! A wonderful woman told me once, "An education is something no one can ever take from you." I didn't understand it until I was walking to get that diploma. People can do all sorts of things to you, but they can't take away an education.

[@melissaavery2997]

Best to finish college education up as soon as you can. Put it off and there just gets more life in the way.

[@lemonlime623]

I absolutely agree with finishing college. It's such a sweet moment getting that diploma, and an education is incredibly invaluable. I know it may seem like it'll take forever to finish, but when you do, trust me. It's an indescribable feeling.

[@chadmoore3002]

Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel you're welcome.

[@dxwallace55]

He was a talented cat who doesn't get as much credit to what he brought to the 80 as does Phil Collins. but when you look into that classic 80's drum sound as an example, that you hear on Phil's "In the air Tonight", it was Peter that invented that classic drum sound. And he spent millions on his Sledgehammer video when everybody else was spending peanuts making cheesy videos. Sledgehammer was the most expensive music video in history, at the time it came out. Peter Gabriel was a true innovator that wasn't afraid to break away from Genesis and do his own expression. And when you look back at the numbers, he sold a hell of a lot of records, just like Phil Collins

[@patriciamorgan6545]

Of course Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins were in Genesis together at times during the band's history. They overlapped 1970-75 until Peter left the band. A reunion tour was (is still?) being planned (announced spring 2020).

[@amethystarthur7499]

Peter Gabriel......Yesssss!

[@dxwallace55]

@@patriciamorgan6545 There's a good video out there on how that iconic drum sound of the 80's most know in "In the Air Tonight" came about, it started as an accident in the studio when Genesis was recording, bye eventually shaped the entire 80's music sound . Peter was just as much involved in inventing that sound as Phil if not more. the link is here, cool little piece of throwback music history about Genesis. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKndZ52Jnbxgaac

CHESS RECORDS WENT ON TO WORK WITH HIP HOP. THE CAST IN THIS MOVIE WERE THE PERFECT CHOICE... "IN MY OPINION" BEYONCE PLAYS... ETA JAMES & GIVES A VERY GOOD SOLID PERFORMANCE IN HER PORTRAYAL OF ETA. MOS DEF PLAYS... CHUCK BERRY THE CREATOR & "THE REAL KING OF ROCK N ROLL".. FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW. COLUMBUS SHORT... PLAYS LITTLE WALTER LITTLE WALTER PLAYED THE HARMONIC AND NOBODY COULD TEST HIM AT THE TIME. IN FACT... THIS MOVIE SHOULD BE PLAYED IN BLACK HISTORY CLASS BECAUSE MUSIC HAS PLAYED A VERY BIG PART IN THE BLACK MAN'S STRUGGLE TO SURVIVE THROUGH THOSE SLAVERY DAYS WHEN THE WHIP STRUCK THEIR BACKS , IT WAS THEIR SINGING THAT GAVE THE BLACK MAN HOPE... & STRENGTH TO CARRY ON RIGHT UP UNTIL NOW IN THESE TIMES. THOSE SONGS WERE SONGS OF PAIN & SUFFERING BUT ALSO MOST IMPORTANTLY THOSE SONGS WERE SONGS OF FREEDOM , THEY WERE FREEDOM CRIES LONG BEFORE MODERN BLACK MUSIC BECAME MAINSTREAM.
