"Aretha has been called for many years "The Queen Of Soul", but many also call her "Lady Soul," as well as the more affectionate "Sista Re." She is renowned for her soul and R&B recordings but is also adept at jazz, rock, blues, pop, and gospel. She is generally regarded as one of the top vocalists ever, due to her ability to inject whatever she may be singing about with passion, soul and sheer conviction." Wikipedia

Nov 18, 2008 - you are so right. I'm 21 years old and Christina Aguilera is the voice of my generation but she pales in comparison to such greats as whitney or aretha. Christina can't hit notes live that she hits in the studio but Aretha just does it effortlessly and on a consistent basis.
TheQueenAretha Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - I agree about everything you said about Aretha, but if Christina is the voice of our generation, then we need to find a need voice.

Nov 18, 2008 - we really do

Nov 18, 2008 - so this another reply to my previous reply lol but I think the problem is that our society is so image driven. Imagine if Aretha came out during our time... They probably never would've given her a chance because they probably wouldve wanted her to be like a Britney or Something. People with true talent aren't given the chance they deserve based on looks alone. Thats why alot of pop and R&B music is suffering.

Nov 18, 2008 - this is without a doubt a perfect performance from her, this was definately a real and true performance, most of the artists are lip syncing, but it's obvious that she was not lip syncing here, I gave it 5 star rating, you can tell that she was getting into this and done a superb job at it.not only did she do a superb job, she also looked real good too, most performers these days look like real slobs when they get on stage or on tv, they all could take a lesson from this video.
