You make me feel, by Aretha Franklin




This performance will always make its mark on my psyche, in the way I view music and hope music to sound like. If not like this, then this good, pure, soulful and generous. Like all serious artists, Aretha has given her whole life to reaching this level, and it shows. The woman is untouchable and barely reachable on that top rung where she's sitting. May she live to sing many more songs.

Of course Obama shed a tear. I have chills every time I watch this performance and I'm watching a freaking video. Obama was there!
