That's what I stuck with. I know Aretha died, but that doesn't elevate her status as a favorite singer of mine, and I still wouldn't think it unoriginal if people had her at the top of their lists either. She had a phenomenal voice. But outside Freedom (from The Blues Brothers) and Respect, I can't think of any other songs, and even those aren't really types of songs I'd go out of my way listening to.
