*******************
An icon of 20th and 21st century music, the voice of the civil rights movement, and the undisputed Queen of Soul-there is only one Aretha Franklin. In her incredible six-decade career, Aretha evolved from teenage gospel star to reigning pop and R&B diva, recording classics like “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain Of Fools”, “Think” (lyrics by Aretha Franklin), definitive versions of the songs “Respect” and “I Say a Little Prayer”, and global hits like “Freeway Of Love,” “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”, and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.”
Altogether, 112 of her singles reached the charts, with 20 No. 1 R&B singles, the most ever by a female artist. She won 18 Grammy Awards (including the first eight trophies for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance) and, out of recognition for her for indelible contribution to American music and culture, received both the Presidential Medal of Freedom and a Pulitzer Prize.
Big thanks to Aretha’s sister Carolyn Franklin for writing this masterpiece 👏
Aretha playing piano just keeps going on & on & on..oh my.
Carolyn 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
CISSY HOUSTON HITTING THAT NOTE
♥️🙏🏿
Apparently, she was a lesbian and was singing about a woman. Still ❤ Carolyn and the song.
Cissy Houston ain't no joke on them background vocals.
Yea
Wish there's a video of her doing that operatic aria.
She’s On Point; Seriously “ On Point “. For Real !!!
Mother to Whitney,, the greatest
Right... she's got that and Aretha...such a legend!!
Cissy Houston ain't no joke whatever she is singing.
There will never be another Aretha, Ella, Sara V . All unforgettable voices, will go down in history! Can't imagine anyone not loving Aretha Franklin. Makes my heart smile❤
Baby!!!! NEVER ❤️❤️❤️
Sisters of the Perfect Pitch … Morgana King in there too …
Cissy just won't let it alone.she tearing it up. And don't mention the. Queen of soul. Hot dog!
Today June 1, 2024 how I wish today's generation can appreciate songs, including my daughter who is 45,. We have lost radio stations here in Tampa,FL because the songs today every other word has to be bleep out. I'm 71 years old and I thank God every day for waking me up.
I'm 54 son is 33 Grandgirl is 8 I am so Thankful for the experience of REAL music that they have 🙌Grandgirl likes the Jackson 5 It's Yo thing 💃💃💃💃 Blessed
I'm 45 & I love this song.
@beverlyreynolds1718 my kids like this music- all 7 of them- ages almost 27 to almost 13.
Love this song. Never knew Aretha's sister wrote it. Awesome
Ain't No Way"
Ain't no way for me to love you
If you won't let me
Ain't no way for me to give you all you need
If you won't let me give all of me
I know that a woman's duty
Is to help and love a man
And that's the way it was planned
Oh but how can I, how can I, how can I
Give you all the things I can
If you're tying both of my hands?
Oh, it ain't no way
(Ain't no way)
It ain't no way
(Ain't no way)
It just ain't no way, baby
(Ain't no way)
Ain't no way, baby
(Ain't no way)
It ain't no way for me to love you
If you won't let me
Stop trying to be someone you're not
How cold and cruel is a man
Who paid too much for what he got?
And if you need me like you say, say you do
Oh then please, please
Please don't you know that I need you?
Oh, it ain't no way
I tell you that it ain't no way
It ain't no way, it ain't no way, baby, no
It just ain't no way
It sure ain't no way
It ain't no way for me to love you
If you won't let me
No way
If you won't let me
Ain't no way
❤️‼️
Dddddd
I
Thank you...
My Favorite Aretha's Song
Cissy Houston certainly put the grease on the background vocals! My fav Aretha Franklin song!
Sho' you right!@
Aint no way to play tricks with the heart.
Absolutely blown away 👀👀
Yes she did.
Really.... Wow
Beautiful song
I LOVE Cissy’s back up vocals on this song! Wow 🤩
Mamma di Witney Houston
Absolutely incredible ❤
Aretha Franklin gave so much hope to us black soldiers while in Vietnam
thank you for being my hero.
Salute!❤❤❤
❤
Thank you for your service sir.
Thanks for your sacrifice and service
Old school song's never gets old. My respect to this lady.
That background note!!! Crystal clear almost Angelic 🙏🏼💕💪🏽
Cissy Houston.. Whitney Houston Mother 🙌🏾
@@IYHIGJ yep that was unreal beyond angelic!! :)
Goose bumps !
@@IYHIGJI thought that was her sister
Wow.
Background vocals are hauntingly amazing.
...makes the song
Cissy Houston, la mamma di Witney ❤
The background vocals make the song...
What a voice. I always cry when I listen to this song.
Cissy got it going on in the back ground YOU GO GIRL
I have to confess that for several decades I thought Aretha was overrated. But when I had the pleasure of going through her body of work in order to see why I thought such a thing, it didn’t take very long for me to realize that she was spectacular in every way, and not many others can dismantle a song as she did. The true queen of soul.
find PRECIOUS LORD by ARETHA when she was 14; DR. KANG's FAVORITE SONG, I think he heard this version.
Watch Aretha standing in for Luciano Pavarotti! And you will be frozen in awe of this amazing woman.
Better late than never and aren't you glad that you've arrived?!
Very rite of you to come to ur senses
Thee only Queen Of Soul!!!
2:30 - 3:11 is utter perfection! Ain't No Way anyone can top Aretha!
Patti Labelle did way better
The original is always best😂🤎
Will never be surpassed!
Others have tried, but that is all they did, "try".
This is one of the most meaningful, soul-touching songs Aretha sang... I am more of an Empress guy, but oh my, the Queen has always did it for me as well.
I totally agree with you. Everything about this song sets it above the rest. Cissy Houston is outstanding in the background vocals, and we know understand why her daughter Whitney was such as powerhouse, God rest her soul!!!! Hard cold and crude is a man who paid too much for what he got! May we always be mindful of others and be careful for what we wish for. God Bless you!
How you gonna be an empress when the Queen has more hits, more notoriety, more awards than you? Come now.
Come through Cissy with the vocals🔥🔥🔥🔥
My favorite Aretha song ❤️. This song gives me chills.
For me it’s too many to pick just one
Mine too..When she said..🎶Oh, but how can I how can I how can I..give you all the things I can..If your tying both of my hands...ohh hoo it ain't no way🎶 I felt every bit of that statment!
😩❤💕💕💕💕💕😩
@@bellestarr4040 Me and my husband both, hair standing up on our arms. This song is her best, Imho.👍
@@lorrainedesousa2163 yes ma’am
The entire production a masterpiece, Areatha, Cissy and the band. Nothing like a live band sound. Definitely one of my favorite Queen of Soul hits!
Im in June 2024 still in awe
I’m with you!!!!
ARETHA DID THT BUT CISSY VOCALS TOUCH YUR SOUL
Aretha and Cissy gave grace to this song...How can i give you all things i can if you're tying both of my hands? Just ain't No Way....
This is a bad ass song, and this lady was one bad lady with one bad voice, she and her voice will live forever,GO GIRL, ❤️❤️
This song by Aretha Franklin is the best song she recorded. It's from her heart, from her soul way down deep inside. All the pain, the heartache and the love for a man, will take you there. I LOVE THIS SONG because itn was her shining moment where everything was revealed. Your heart can only take so much, especially, when your heart is in pain. She was a voice of all women who are in love, so distinctively, you could feel everything. She had the ability to sing something so personal, that it aroused every thing inside of you that you kept a secret for years. She let us know, we were never left alone, even though, we never knew it. That song she sang let us know how much we love and never be ashamed of it. The only thing is, no matter what you do for a man, we are always seen and not heard. MARION HUNTER.
Beautifully said🙌🏽 this song reaches the soul. I play it loud and and just close my eyes and let it feel my soul the way its intended.
Its actually written by her sister about a lesbian wanting her lover to come out of the closet which is why it says a woman is supposed to love a man that's the way it was planned. And atop trying to be something you're not. Listen again
Magnificent
@@ashaduplessis2772OK??? But Aretha made the song her own. Maybe she had personal stuff in her love life and bring the emotions out in the song.
@@smallahhtoes That doesn't change the meaning of the song so I fail to see the validity of your point. Arethas talent has nothing to do with the lyrics
IF THIS DOESN'T MAKE YOUR YOUR EARS TINGLE, THEN YOU MUST NOT BE ALIVE OR DEAF. RIP ARETHA; THANK YOU AND CISSY SO MUCH.
AND STILL ❤2024
I cant listen to this without crying
After listening to this song for quite a while and countless times, which included all the versions/covers from other singers, I can truly say this, " Aretha, being the original, sang this song as it it should've been the truth." Others tried to sing it hoping they'd give a better rendition and upend the original but through the nuances of additional embellishments only failed. Aretha did not use any falsetto note to hit the high register, it was pure power and reach and that was were the truth came from. It did cut through the listerner's soul and emotion, the power of which, only Aretha possessed. One of a kind.
Old school song's never gets old. Best lady in the world. Her song's never gets old.
Cissy Houston left her mark!!!
I tried to hit that "who ahh' note, and as the song goes, Ain't No Way!
Cissy Houston. The Soprano.
She is perfect.Saw her in concert in Kansas City in the early sixties and she was electrifying.I will never forget it.
WOW
Hello Barbara, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
Cissy Houston, the late great Whitney Houston mommy, as background 💃
We all know dummy
@Wendy Lynch dummy? Your parents are cousins... which makes you the dummy!
This is music ❤❤
The greatest!
No one will match this song
Aretha left this world but man what her art will live for eternity 👑
This is my favorite song by Aretha. I think the backup is just great. It has the quality of angels singing. She was the greatest.
Ms. Cissy Houston on background vocals ❤
Whitney’s mom…
Heaven's angel singing for us. Impossible not to admire!!!
I love this song. I discovered it from watching Whitney and Mary J covering it. Gave me chills. Thank you, Ms Aretha Franklin- 28 May 2023💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
2:52 Will make you sit down and cry at the edge of your bed. So emotionally appealing.
As for me, this song makes me remember, family, the smell of collard greens, a beautiful sunny day, being 16-17, momma cooking (love you mom) daddy and auntie Louise talking and laughing and sharing memories, remembering my Aunts Daisy Mae, and Ella Mae kitchen always smelled like the best restaurant in town, the fearlessness of youth, never forgetting hot summer sunny days, unity in my family, although there some tough times, smelling cornbread, pinto beans, and seeing that 3 tier chocolate cake, rich in love and family no matter what the other people thought or said, friends, hanging out at the gym, the park playing football, swimming and taking walks in the rural fields in Wichita Falls TX and Duncan OK. Funny how a song can unlock a vault of memories, pleasant and not so pleasant. I have lived a rich life. 2020 I will be 60 years young, if it is Yahuah's will. I am grateful for the tears and the years. Each has been a gift. Be strong Israel. This time is like the setting sun. It is going out with a bang. Our father must exact vengence on all the nations that have hated us. Be strong family! Thank you Ms. Franklyn for what your voice still means to so many still living and for the memories you cause to rebound and cause a smile to come to my face today. Yahuah, bless and forgive our ancestors, those who are gone before us. Give us your mercies for the days ahead. For you, Yahuah are good and your mercies are everlasting. (2 Chronicles 20) Shalum!
Nicely Said; I couldn’t have said it any better.
💖💖
Clarence Mitchell I am just a white man, but I feel your words and the power of your memories. Ms. Aretha was the best.
@@iVenge To really know why our people are such great musicians and singers, you have to know we are the singers and musicians and instrument makers of the temple of Jerusalem. So called black man and woman and all those scattered throughout the earth, into all kingdoms of the earth are the Hebrew descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob/Israel of the bible.

See Benjamin Freedman lectures on UA-cam warning American people against relationships with the Jews.
See Genesis: 10:3, Ashkenaz (Jews or Jewish) is a gentile. Ashkenaz is not in the bloodline of Shem. He is the grandson of Japheth.
See UA-cam videos, Hidden Hebrews, part 1-5, by Banayah Israel.

Even if you dont or won't accept this as truth, it matters not. We know who we are. The world, the nations, all global financial systems are in chaos. Pestilence is upon the earth. Earthquakes are everywhere. Wars and rumors of wars are on the news and T.V. and radio, internet, day and night, night and day. The black Messiah said to the black Hebrews before he left the black tribes of Israel (Jacob's children) these signs would be upon all mankind before his return. The days we are living through are warning signs to all nations, peoples, tongues and languages. Messiah is coming to bring his sword to all nations who have enslaved, murdered, raped, lynched and sold his brethren. Black Israel has been away from Jerusalem for almost 3,000 years or three days if you will. If you know anything about history, you know it is written by those who seized control over the earth. You should also know they wrote lies. All lies. Black Messiah, Yahusha, said, all that is hidden, will be brought to light. He is causing the Tribes of Israel, the true children of the kingdom, to awaken and to reclaim their heritage (see Ezekiel 37 and 38) We are in a physical and spiritual war against all nations, government leaders and armies who hate the so called black man and woman, the true children of Israel. I lie not. In the coming days, hour, months, you will see the power of Yahuah, destroy the nations to save his people. See Luke 2. Father will destroy all economies, armies and governments that hate his children, the black man and woman who has been in bondage for over 400 years in America. See Genesis15:13. See US House Bill, 1242, See on UA-cam, African Nations (Ghana, Nigeria, and other emerging economies establishing, "the right of return and citizenship to the children of the African Diaspora (Slave Trade). NOTE: (the sons of Ham - Egyptians and Hebrews), [Abraham's seed] are often mistaken to be the same people. Apostle Paul was mistaken for being Egyptian, (see Acts 21:38), Moses was mistaken for being an Egyptian (Exodus 2:19). Historians have written lies and made all of Africa to be the sons of Ham. Black Hebrews (Abraham's children and black Africans, sons of Ham have always looked like one people, one nation. See Genesis 50. You will see ALL of the house of Pharaoh and ALL of the house of Israel are view as one people by the Canaanites. All of history as you and I know it has been whitewashed and written to make white skin beautiful and stronger and superior. When in fact that is but a lie. White skin people have had a limited (gentile) rule on earth as all the black prophets have foretold. If you think you have felt the power of words in my previous post about Mrs. Franklin, surely, I have spoken what is in my heart as well. I don't know you. I do warn you and tell you, the end of all white gentile rule over the earth is at its end. It will end in double, horrible as it began. It will also culminate in gentiles (white skinned nations waring against eachother and destroying eachother). This has happened before, except, when it happened in 2 Chronicles, chapter 20, the nations were all so called black and they came against the ancient kingdom of black Hebrews. Father will cause it to happen again, except this time, whatever caused the skin and other characteristics of the sons of Japheth to become white; it will be the white skinned nations who destroy eachother. I lie not. You must prepare your heart for what is yet to come upon all men upon the face of the earth. JUDGEMENT! The bible is the history of a black man, Abraham, his sons, Isaac, and Jacob - Israel and Israel's 12 sons (Tribes). This is where the world gets the name 12 Tribes of Israel. And none of them, not even Messiah, were Christian's they were as I am, HEBREWS. Everything we know has changed. Everything we know will change again and again. There will be no return to "normal". JUDGEMENT has returned in the power of the name Yahuah and all his righteousness. My hope and my prayer for you is that you are one of the gentiles who escapes the judgement and righteous destruction that is being measured out each day upon the nations of the earth. Shalum!
Clarence,this is a great story right there. This remind me of WVON 1390AM Good Guys Like E.Rodney Jones & Pervis Spann The Blues Man Would Play This Religiously.
I love Aretha and miss her amazing voice!
Me too🙏🌷
my God this is still stunning

This. This is the song ever. This is the one.
You got it!
Beautiful ❤ thanks Aretha, pure gold
I got to hear this for the first time. why is my skin tingling from her voice. This is a beautiful sad song
@krash718 Go listen to
“Baby Baby Baby” “My Song” and “Drown In My Own Tears” by Aretha too. Only assuming if you’ve never heard those before, you’ll probably get the same “tingling” from her singing and piano playing.
Hope you had headphones on
🙌🏽🙌🏽🎶 🎶
What can I say! It's "The QUEEN of Soul"--Vocal Perfection in its Purest form! THANK You QUEEN Aretha! 🙏🏽
Cissy is them hitting the high vocals
As a Man, I love and sing this Song often. The way Aretha sings this song goes straight to the heart on the very 1st note. Cissy Huston is the Glue that keeps this song air tight, with her background Soprano acrobatic capabilities
Can't imagine how Carolyn Franklin felt about her life , her love for a woman .
Her sister Carolyn Franklin wrote this. Carolyn was a lesbian, and this is a song about a woman trying to convince a woman to come out and be herself, so that they could be together. It's been reclaimed as a lesbian anthem. Carolyn, very sadly, died young of breast cancer at age 44.
stop your lgbt bullsh*t propaganda
She tried to convince a woman to be gay??
@@IdkYoYono she tried to convince her to come out. coming out doesn’t mean forcing someone to become gay, it means being open about your sexuality.
Where did you read/learn this?
WRONG!!!
One of the best singers of all time, one of the best soulful singers of all time. Girls bow down give it up to the queen🎉
Hello Glynda, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??

Hello Melissa, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
When you love someone who doesn’t know how to love. It will nearly kill you but you move on. They tie both of your hands, you gotta untie them eventually and close that door
What does that part mean? When she says tie both of my hands
Hello Sue, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??

The pretty Aretha Franklin☺...I like her as so much...soul lady melts hearts ☺
Aretha Franklin wrote the best love songs of someone who truly loved her husband. He had a jib that may not have been accepted by society but he took his money and financed her record career. Maybe that was part of her love she could never forget. Helped world know Aretha Franklin.
Hello Sharon, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
This was the music playing thru out the Hi-Fi on Saturday morning... I'm in my happy place sad place, thinking about all the people who was around in my family who are no longer with me.. Classic Music ✊🏿
this band sounds amazing, those horns and drums at the end!
I still remember when I heard this masterpiece for the first time, I was like 12 and I was lying on the floor in my P.E class. it really blew my mind that I tried to look for the name but I didn't succeed. Next, I listened to it again when Mercedes Jones sang it on Glee like 2 years later.
Then, when I fell in love for the first time... It reminds me of all those stories when you're not just enough.
Since then, I can't help listening to it every single time I feel a bit nostalgic.
