    We going riding on the freeway of love
    Wind's against our back
    We going riding on the freeway of love
    In my pink Cadillac
    We going riding on the freeway of love
    Wind's against our back
    We riding on the freeway of love
    In my pink Cadillac

    Arista Records released this song on June 5, 1985. I've lived in the Detroit area my whole life and a lot has changed in 38 years, but Aretha Franklin (1942-2018) will always be the Queen of Soul. Rolling Stone just ranked her #1 among the 200 Greatest Singers of All Time. "Respect" is #1 on the 500 Best Songs of All Time list.
    "Good night, sweet Queen. May flights of angels sing to thee in thy rest...." (Adapted from Act V, Scene 2 of "Hamlet").

    She was among the most exceptional singers that ever came out of the music industry before it died. That voice is just unmistakable. She was doing seriously good work from before Motown as a thing. And she certainly was prolific---hit, after hit, after hit. Very first song I ever heard her sing is "Sweet/Bitter Love", and every song of hers became a favorite of mine after that. She will never be gone. The power of her voice and her music live on forever. Nothing that comes out of today's garbage 'music' industry comes even close.

    This song makes me so happy, so much energy and upbeat. Calling Aretha as "The Queen of soul" is a sort of an understatement, she's one of the greatest vocalist, if not she's the greatest of all.

      suffolk6311.... what are you talking about ...she could have bought a home anywhere in the 70s 80s 90s 2000s.... oh yes they were integrated if you had the money .... Nat King Cole lived in an all white prestigious neighborhood in the late 50's.... they gave him helll but he stayed ....matter fact Aretha lived in California for many years.... she just loved Detroit and made it her permanent home as did Anita Baker who of course was born and raised there.... Aretha Franklin was born in Tennessee.

They were playing a gospel tone, my father on the organ my grandmother playing the piano and out of nowwhere my grandmother bust out in the middle of the song, "We going riding on the freeway" made my father so angry cause she would bust out a Aretha song all the time. She loved her some Aretha! Rest in Paradise Queen, you run into my grandmother, which Im sure u have already, tell her I said Hello, I love her and the family is doing fine.
