Hello, Aretha Fans,

There is a new book coming out soon entitled "Songbirds, Greatest Female Singers of Our Time." Guess where The क्वीन resides on the list? I am the author. I will let आप know when it is released.

Here is an excerpt:

Aretha Louise Franklin was born on March 25, 1942, in Memphis, Tennessee. Captivating listeners with her powerful vocals, Aretha was referred to as the “Queen of Soul.” She has sold और than 75 million records, including प्रिय “Respect” and “I Say a Little Prayer.”
कहा fellow singer Mary J. Blige, “Aretha is a gift from God. When it comes to expressing yourself through song, there is no one who can touch her. She is the reason why women want to sing. Aretha has everything – the power, the technique. She is honest with everything she says.”

Struming my pain with his fingers

Singing my life with his words

killing me softy with his song

killing me softly with his song

telling my whole life
with his words

killing me softly with his song



I heard he sang a good song

I heard he had a style

and so i came to see

and listen for a while



and there he was this younge boy

a stranger to my eyes

Struming my pain with his fingers

Singing my life with his words

killing me softy with his song

killing me softly with his song

telling my whole life

with his words

killing me softly with his song



I felt all flushed with...

Lookin' out on the morning rain
(Ah-ooo)
I used to feel so uninspired
(Ah-ooo)
And when I knew I had to face another day
(Ah-ooo)
Lord it made me feel so tired
Before the दिन I met you
Life was so unkind
But you're the key to my piece of mind

'cause आप make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (woman)

When my soul was in the लॉस्ट and found
You came along to claim it
I didn't know just what was wrong with me
Till your किस helped me name it
Now I'm no longer doubtful
Of what I'm livin' for
And if I make आप happy
I don't need to do more

'cause आप make me feel
You make me feel
You make me...

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for आप
While combing my hair, now,
And wondering what dress to wear, now,
I say a little prayer for आप
Forever, forever, you'll stay in my दिल
and I will प्यार आप
Forever,and ever, we never will part
Oh, how I'll प्यार आप
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without आप
Would only be heartbreak for me.

I run for the bus, dear,
While riding I think of us, dear,
I say a little prayer for you.
At work I just take time
And all through my coffee break-time,
Lyrics www.allthelyrics.com/lyrics/aretha_franklin/
I say a little prayer for you.

Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my दिल
and I will प्यार आप
Forever, forever we never will part
Oh, how I'll प्यार आप
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without आप
Would only be heartbreak for me.

My darling believe me,
For me there is no one
But you.
