Aretha Franklin - I Say A Little Prayer



Best comment so far on You Tube about this awesome video (I agree with him 100%)

She blows every single modern diva so far out of the water its almost criminal. singers today could stand to gain even a fraction of the talent of Aretha.
The music industry would be much improved.
