the BEST THAT EVER WAS.
Max, this is a real old oldie
shes the sh*t witout a doubt, very powerful!
Atlast is a beautiful song and I agree with you Galeunderdue
Etta James was the few people who could sing with such power, and clarity while higher than a spaceship on herion!!!!! Etta should have sang"AT LAST" at the innaguation instead of Beyonce! Why?!? Because she went through the Jim-Crow days,and who better to represent the performers of that time than her! Or have them both sing it to symbolize yesterday, and today!
I absolutly adore this woman. She's the kind of person who DEFINES something.
Her, she defines soul. I think my favorite it the classic At Last. But all her songs suit me.
