    I hope somebody gives Patti her moment to sit in that booth to receive The Kennedy Award. She deserves it!
  • Patti Labelle sung that song. I think it's time for her Kennedy Center honor as well.
  • @porzham3953
    I've been watching Patti perform this over the years and it gets better every time! They need to go ahead and honor queen Patti!
  • Aretha & Patti have always been friends & had respect for one another’s talent. People put that negative & out-right wrong narrative out there about them having beef. Every time you saw Patti singing at an Aretha tribute it’s bcuz Aretha herself personally requested & chose Patti. Who else was on equal footing to Aretha when it came to singing, ESPECIALLY back in the 1990’s? 🤷🏽‍♀️

    Always loved Aretha Franklin. When I watched her at 73, singing Natural Woman and playing the piano at the Carole King tribute in 2015 I loved her even more!!!
  • @jordan43ful
    This proves that Aretha really enjoyed Patti singing her songs.
  • @robinsmith8985
    Aretha was so gifted but Patty LaBelle is as well ☮️😊
  • When stood up for her ovation, all I could think to myself was that she was our “queen”. I know the world had queen elizabeth, but she wasn’t our queen. The queen of America, was the queen of soul, ms Aretha Frankin
  • @gaddovame2879
    That bridge of AIN'T NO WAY is one of the hardest things for any singer. It's like Aretha placed a cookie jar on a shelf that only she, herself, can reach.
  • @singingmanmd
    The Four Tops made Ms. Aretha night. That beautiful smile on her face tells it all. This with the Four Tops Segment was awesome!!
  • @Cutt421
    There is only one Aretha Franklin. There isn’t no comparison.

    I wish Whitney would have lived long enough to have overcome her demons to sit in that booth to receive hers! It’s only natural that she would have, since she had won everything else and certainly deserved it by her her career accomplishments. Still nobody can sound the way she does in 2022
  • @nonjabulonm
    Patti? Ma'am? 😍 you killed it! Can't wait for your Kennedy Honors award.
  • @gregorymiller2977
    Aretha loved Levi Stubbs. These two were childhood friends whose 'stars' crossed in life, in music, and in spirit.
  • @explore4284
    SIMPLY AWESOME!!! Who still listening in 2021🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
  • @teddyj.3198
    9:08 can’t get over it! The smoothness and sweetness of Levi Stubbs’ voice, RIP to one of the GREATEST SINGERS, EVER, as well as to the QUEEN OF SOUL, the one and only ARETHA FRANKLIN
  • @vancemars1174
    She truly loved Levi! Notice how her face lights up at 9:44 I’ve never seen her so pleased to see someone!😫
  • Patti should be in the Rock hall of fame as well as Kennedy Center honors.
