You can tell the way she spoke in her music, she did not PLAY, she meant what she said and said what she meant
God allmighty I miss this woman…always will..nobody got it quite like you…well, nobody that sang it..an nobody sings it like you…cant listen to the others..forever Queen
One of the best, ever!

ETTA ERES ÚNICA, ESTOY DE LUTO!!!
wwwgreatbuyoutletscom wwwtopfuelsavercom I am reminded of what Simon is reported to have said when Jesus came to his boat in the early morning, “Master, we have toiled all night, and taken nothing.”I would like to again visit Montreaux and view the magnificent Alps across the lovely Lac Léman, from the immense windows and the large balcony of the Hotel Beau Rivage, looking out upon the tremendous snow-banked Dents du Midis exactly opposite, like a keystone at the arch of the lake
Love it!!!
Ciao Etta
This was a good Version by etta..Elvis was much better IMO
@Elvisfan731 elvis is not soulful ha.
RIP ETTA JAMES YOU WILL BE MISSED!!!! MAKE THEM ANGELS JAM.
The Besto! Gloria
I remember the first time I heard Ette she sang Dance With Me Henry, Wow what a song real rock and roll.
RIP Etta
I’m so glad I got to see and hear you, what a great entertainer.
Thanks for sharing.
@runhorun what areyou saying exactly? Elvis wasnt soulful? or are you being sarcastic..Elvis is not soulful ha ( lol) ? cosif your saying Elvis wasnt soulful then your blind and tone deaf my friend …
etta as good as jimmy reed
will miss etta bless you
omg omg omg my soul is high high high!
Love you Etta!
@markbanarsenal elvis is not soulful..trust me he’s not, his voice is very superficial…sorry.
@TheMahogany19 no needto be sorry .thats your opinion, however we beg to differ .. ive listened to elvis for many years and though im not a staunch fan of his rock n roll stuff his early gospel and his ballads are certainly not manufactured..in the ghetto? how great Thou art? the wonder of you?always on my mind? ok not great “soulful” tunes but to say his voice had no “soul” im deffo on a different wavelength to you musically.. guess thats why we are human and all different.bless.
@ 0:19 Love her face. Makes you just want to pinch a cheek. lol
What a great Lady and Voice.What a great legacy of tune’s and people who love’d You to leave behind.Sing with the Angel’s Lady.
Some people said my voice sounds like hers, but now I listened to some of her songs and I feel praised to heaven that my voice is allowed to sound just a little bit like hers! Etta James, R.I.P., you were wonderful, and still are.
Never heard of Etta James till today, but wow… Her voice is soulful and real smooth to listen to.
dam another soul legend gone..R.I.P. etta
