I thought Trapped By A Thing Called Love would be her most favorite because she said she messed another and fell in love in 1971. Imagine, falling in love, writing a song about it, and getting a gold record for it.. Most Love
@@reneelloyd3857 She loved "Trapped" also, of course. She said she especially liked it because it was a kind of good-timey song but it also told a real story. (By 1971, by the way, she'd already been "in love" for several years at least -- she'd married her husband, Bill Jones, in 1969; they'd been dating since 1967.) She was a storyteller at heart, and her favorite songs were songs that did that. That's why she said she had a particular soft spot for her ballads. Songs like "Lady In the Street" and "Snap, Crackle, Pop" were a lot of fun and she had a good time writing and performing them, but the songs that meant most to her were the ones that she could really pour her heart into. One of the ones that really meant a lot to her was "Child Of the Ghetto," which she recorded in 1994 (ruclips.net/video/zuRKC2hLMLk/видео.html). She said she never performed it because she couldn't get through it without breaking down. Even when she recorded it, she couldn't get through it -- the band had to lay down the track, and then she came back later and sang it. The last song she ever performed in public was "I Forgot To Remember" -- she sang it at the festival in Greenville, MS in 2017. She was very weak by that time, and she only sang two songs that day before giving it over to Karen Wolfe, who was singing back-up for her then. She stayed on stage, applauding and supporting Karen and encouraging the audience, but she didn't sing anymore. What a way for the Queen to make her exit: "I still feel your presence in everything that I do . . ."
Denise was a bad bad classy blues Queen her songs will turn you upside down. You can learn something for the young and season ladies. Peace!
She said that this was one of her favorites of all the songs she ever wrote and recorded. God Bless the Queen -- Rest in glory, my beloved friend.
yess i think trapped might be another love her
