Hi there✨

[remembering-aretha-franklin]

Spread some love ❤️

[remembering-aretha-franklin]

Your blog is INSANELY FABULOUS!!!😊😊😊 I absolutely love the array of stunning photos - many of which seem to be quite rare - concert clips, videos, fun facts and quotes. Your tribute to our beloved Queen is quite impressive and befitting of the incredible legacy she's left behind for us all. I've been a devoted fan of Aretha's since I was about 3 years old not only for her extraordinary creative brilliance and artistry but also for her significant contribution to civil rights and liberation

Thank you so much! I couldn’t agree more with you 🙂, she is a legend.

This medley was dedicated to Aretha Franklin in 2019 by four wonderful, Dutch women. I was there and it was so amazing. ❤️

“Falling out of love is like losing weight. It’s a lot easier putting it on than taking it off.”
