    Aretha did so much fantastic stuff for Atlantic but this is the one Columbia track that tops the lot. Simply sublime.

    One of my favorites of Aretha. I first heard it during her Queen of Soul years in the 60s. It was the B-side of one her hits on 45 rpm, the year was circa 1966. This track didn't get any play time on the air then, but it became my personal fav. Van McCoy (1940-1979) wrote this song.

    Embarrassing confession: my sisters and I used to make fun of this song in the ‘60’s when we were little (I was about 8). It was on an album of various artists including Tommy Rowe, The Archie’s and Bobby Sherman. Yeah, very white, as were we. When this song came on we’d laugh like crazy as we pretended to sing into microphones and sound black like Aretha. We grew up outside of Chicago and my mom tried to shelter us from the bigotry around us, but there was only so much she could do. I always secretly liked this song. It’s the only song from that album that’s on my playlist. I love it every time I hear it. The lyrics and Aretha’s delivery are so great

    Today, our Magic Dream, Miss Aretha Franklin, lost her battle with cancer. There will never be another Aretha. The angels are truly rejoicing!

    Okay, now I am just a pile of tears. If this song does not make you think, or cry, you are made of stone and I feel for you.

    Aaaahhh, My all-time favorite Aretha Franklin song. I can’t even tell you how many nights I sat alone with this record and a bottle of wine, crying my eyes out. Fast-forward 25 years, and the guy I was crying over is my husband, & he’s snoring next to me as I write this. 🥰

    Such an evocative piece. I was in my early teens when it would take me away long before Roberta Flack was killed softly. Wherever I was it paused me and cuddled me sweet and slow for the most dreamy journey. A true heartfelt classic from an inspired vocalist. PWG

    She was the Epitome Of Classy Soul there wont be another .R.I.P. Aretha Franklin.

  • @michaelfutch6685

    Such a beautiful song! This is, along with Prove It, my all time favorite Aretha song. Brings back so many memories of my college days in the '60s. Pure magic!

    She sent me packing while I was away in Air Force and Aretha’s Sweet Bitter Live haunted me for years.
