From the New York Times obituary:
In her indelible late-1960s hits, Ms. Franklin brought the righteous fervor of gospel music to secular songs that were about much more than romance. Hits like “Do Right Woman — Do Right Man,” “Think,” “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman” and “Chain of Fools” defined a modern female archetype: sensual and strong, long-suffering but ultimately indomitable, loving but not to be taken for granted.Did you see her Kennedy Center Honors performance?
Oh, heartbreak...
ReplyDeleteYes, I did see her performance at the Kennedy Center. She still had it and I was awed.
