For me it's "you make me feel like a natural woman" so powerful.

Rip you glorious dame.

Will always remember - "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves" (with Eurythmics)

her voice was always a stand out

Sad loss

She really was such an incredible singer. There will never be another like her.

‘Angel’ is my favourite Aretha song.

Another great voice gone.

"Son of a preacher man"

Bein' good isn't always easy

No matter how hard I try

When he started sweet-talkin' to me

He'd come'n tell me "Everything is all right"

He'd kiss and tell me "Everything is all right"

Can I get away again tonight?

And yes, I know it was originally sung by Dusty Springfield, but I prefer this version.

Listened to some Aretha on way home from work after I heard the news. And now I’m watching the blues brothers

Growing up with a father who was a jazz musician I was exposed to the wonderful Aretha from an early age and always loved her. I feel like another part of my childhood has gone. She had a long battle against illness but what a legacy she has left.

My personal favourites...

"Until You Come Back to Me" and "I Say a Little Prayer"

She was an amazing woman. Singer, actress, she could do it all.

I don’t have a favorite because there are too many I love.

I guess the heavenly band just got a new lead vocalist.

RIP

She is up there as one of the best singers of all time. Singers of that era will never be seen again. Such an inspiration to black woman all over the world may she RIP
