I will never forget that Snickers commercial with Aretha and the guys in that car. Lol

May her soul rest in sweet heaven. Aretha will always be "THE"... one and ONLY...Queen of Soul.

GREAT GOWNS BEAUTIFUL GOWNS

Thank you Aretha

She’s legend

She was RAW talent, down to the bone. That's why I respect her so much. Aretha definitely was shady, and could be a mean woman at times. But overall, she was the real deal. I used to wonder why she got her ass kissed so much by the industry. One day, I sat down, put some good head phones on and listened to her 1972 *Gospel live album,* in full (the unedited version). Baaayybeee, it was like a spiritual roller-coaster. She had me shouting, screaming, crying and really thinking about my life in general. The way she would sang each syllable, stretched out every single word, and held on to those notes were incredible. That range, that power, that soul. Simply put, she was a musical genius. Aretha was more than just superficial high notes and technical BS. That lady sang from her soul, she knew how to tell the story and never sang a song the same way twice. You will definitely be missed, Aretha. And deserved every award, honor, tribute & ass-kissing the industry ever gave you. YOU were THAT talented... wait scratch that, you were *GIFTED,* period. RIP, you earned it.

May the Queen of Soul R.I.P.

She lived through so many historical moments And was able to take part in them as well That’s amazing

R E S P E C T Thee Queen of Soul. May you RIP Ms Aretha Franklin💙❤️ 🙏🏽 for your family.

She made a great contribution to the backbone of this generation of overall entertainment. Her way of connecting with the audience was unparalleled. The ability of giving the audience what it needed came like second nature to her. To say she made the world her stage is an understatement. She bridged the gap between spirit and emotion. She walked upright and stood in many different buildings and withstood the test of time in comparison to other performers. There is no comparison.

Thanks CNN for sharing. RIP to the Queen. Your music will live on. Thank You Queen Aretha Franklin.

6:18 "you will never see another Aretha -- ever." So true, so very true. Rest in peace, dear Aretha, and thank you.

HER SONGS SPOKE FOR THEMSELVES BUT HER VOICE AND ATTITUDE WAS A CHERRY ON TOP :)

Our Dear Lord gave Aretha Franklin the gift of the angels voices that she so honestly used to create such wonderful songs as she did so many times, her voice touched the hearts and souls of all colors creeds and races, her selfless approach to letting her emotional voice carry us all to heights only she could attain, her civil rights approach was no different Aretha again touched so so many many lives including mine, if you can hear her sing without crying like so many have over the years then you are not listening. she is a treasure for history and time.

R I P to the Queen of Soul... Aretha Franklin 😢

Damn this comment section is toxic. I mean sure CNN isn't the best news source, but I didn't hear one mention of politics during this video. Just respect for this great woman and the wonderful life she led. RIP Aretha, and please don't turn this into another political shitshow people, just respect her and remember her for the woman she was.

No artist can hold a candle next too aretha a total diva rip 👑 🌹

I think she moved everyone to tears at one point or another!

Larry King remembers Aretha Franklin, wow he's not senile after all

RESPECT !!!

I assume GOD needed another beautiful voice🎶 in HEAVEN🎶!On earth we'll settle with her recordings!🎵

She deserved the DIVA!!

Icon

As a young man, Larry dated Aretha’s Great Grandmother.

Enough with the fake news stupidity and the politics already! A great woman has died today. Just leave those who are mourning her in peace!

Larry King remembers Jesus.

This is sad and I'm sorry she died but that anchor is just so damn pretty

How different CNN was when Larry King was on, now they are mostly tabloid news..

as we live and breathe, right now....there are singers all over this country that can sing as well as her. Especially in your black churches, where so many singers, male and female, were groomed on her gospel material. Her "Amazing Grace" album, is like basic training for a lot of singers who go to church a lot..they study that album like its a master class of singing. But what made her stand out from someone you might snatch off the street who sings gospel, is how versatile she was. I can name a number of female singers who, in my opinion, sing as well or even better than Aretha...but they cant go from one genre of music to the next, as seamlessly as she did. Her transition from all the Broadway, pop and jazz standards that she sang for Columbia Records, are almost night and day, compared to her material from Atlantic Records and Arista. ..its almost like you're listening to two different singers. So, as Gladys Knight put it so appropriately "Aretha, was the one who broke thru all the barriers, for us"..and she was talking about all the things that were laid at the feet of black, female vocalists in the 60s and 70s...when it was assumed that they had to stay in their lanes and sing one type of music. You would see Aretha singing in the Caribbean (before she stopped flying, altogether) and then you saw her singing at Jimmy Carter's inaugural ball celebration...you would see her sitting down at the piano, singing 'Jumping Jack Flash"...and then you saw her filling in at the Grammys for Luciano Pavarotti, singing opera.

THATS RE RE OUR BSBY GURL😇🌈🇺🇸💒📖🎶🇺🇸👠 OUR QUEEN IF SOYL SANG ABOUT LIVE AND HONOR AND RESPECTOWARDS EACHOTHER IN FAMILY, FRUENDSHIP AND RELATIONSHIP.

Rip Aretha.

Why is that narrator shouting?!

WHEN HE'S NOT PUSHING FISHY OIL. LARRY KING WORKS FOR THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT.

Who will August 16th take next year?

Anyone know the name of the video of President O fixing her footstool?

Hi Barky !!! My Ping Pong got a rise in my pants when I saw you cry !!! Bong Bong Bong !!!
