........ Having a little fun remembering Aretha Franklin. "I Say A Little Prayer" is today's song. A song written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David for Dionne Warwick.
You know Aretha Franklin was a singer, songwriter, actress, pianist, and civil rights activist. Franklin began her career as a child singing gospel at New Bethel Baptist Church in Detroit, Michigan, where her father C.L. Franklin was a minister.
Aretha is known for gospel mixing it with the mainstream of pop and R&B. She said, " Well it was just natural for me coming from the church."
I have to agree with that. Though she sang gospel, I can tell no matter what kind of song she sang. When Aretha sang "I Say A Little Prayer", I knew it was a love song but hidden was the church, and Aretha sang like she was in church.
If Aretha is in heaven, her soul is with the saints now. She left us on August 16, 2018. I can hear her in my mind how she would sing "I Say A Little Prayer" today.
Actress: Don't you worry about me. Just keep on singing. (singing)
Actress: It doesn't matter whether it's rock n roll or gospel. People need prayer. There is no category when I say ... (singing). We all need prayer!
"I Say A Little Prayer" by Aretha Franklin was released in 1968. To hear the original song by Aretha, "I Say A Little Prayer", go to Spotify.com. I'm Gail Nobles on the CAT BEAR.
