Lyrics:
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Look at my mind floating away
He's the kind of guy that would say
Hey, baby let's get away
Let's go some place, huh
Where I don't care
He's the kind of guy that you give your everything
And trust your heart, share all of your love
Till death do you part
I want to be what he wants
When he wants it and whenever he needs it
And when he's lonesome and feeling love starved
I'll be there to feed it
I'm loving' him a little bit more each day
Turns me right on when I hear him say
Hey, baby, let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Hey baby let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
I want to be what he wants when he wants it
And whenever he needs it
And when he's lonesome and feeling love starved
I'll be there to feed it
Loving him a little bit more each day
It turns me right on when I hear him say
Hey, baby, let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Hey baby let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Hey, baby, let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Hey baby let's get away
Let's go somewhere far
Baby can we
Where, I don't care
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you
Look at my mind floating away
Day... dreaming
Day... dreaming
*******************
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.

I walked down the aisle to this song ❤ when the doors opened and I saw my husband to be turn and smile, I felt so calm, and this beautiful song soundtracked the moment beautifully.
Omgggg this definitely gonna be mines 10/11/24🤞🏽🙌🏽🥰
Awe wow 🥹
What a beautiful memory coupled with this beautiful song. God bless.
@@dlw6939Wishing you all the best!
These young folks comments are cute....but honey I'm so glad I grew up listening to music like this! Priceless!!!!!
Me too ! All the greats!!
💯❤️❤️❤️❤️
Absolutly
Me too! My parents had this album 💿!
Oh me too! I remember cleaning house with my mom on Sunday & this Album playing.
When I was a little girl we didnt have a lot of money but one Christmas I got a radio. I used to open the window to my room in our apartment and listen to Aretha on the local station. And Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly". Those womens' words touched my heart at such an early stage.
I'm moved right now
Bless your Beautiful soul thank you for sharing 🙏
Yes!!!! Me too. Not much money but had a little transistor radio and adored Aretha and Roberta! Wonderful wonderful memories indeed.
Aretha allowed the background singers to absolutely SHINE on this track. That’s one thing I loved about her, her background singers all had distinctly, powerful voices.
The way their voices fade out into the orchestration is GENIUS and magical.
Aretha wasn’t afraid to let her background singer “do it.”
Aretha’s sisters, Irma and Carolyn were her backup singers, and I think Cissy Houston may have recorded backing vocals with Aretha (and Luther, and many others).
Fun fact: While the song “Respect” was written by legendary songwriter Otis Redding, but one of Aretha’s sisters suggested the Re,Re,Re,ReSPECT part as a addition when they recorded it!
I totally agree. They all compliment each other ❤
I agree !!!
"Angel" " Call Me" and " Daydreaming " are my favorites!
Mines, too, I also love All the Kings horses
Aretha meant THE MOST to me. Her music symbolizes the very essence of BLACK MUSIC, for a BLACK WOMAN. Rest in Peace Aretha🙏🏾💕💕
This one is for my sister in law who passed away this morning. I will miss her dearly, but never will I forget her. 😢
✝️🙏🏾🕊
I’m sorry for your loss. Sending you love ♥️
So sorry for your loss. Hope your fun times with her still lives in. ❤
So sorry for your loss 😔🙏🏽
Oh no,I am very sorry to hear this. My Heartfelt Condolences to you and your family.
This might be my favourite Aretha song. Everything about it is utter perfection.
Agreed!
Yesss, it is. I totally agree.
Yes, it's got that gospel spirit feel to it
Agree
DEFINITELY my favorite by Mrs Aretha Franklin HANDS DOWN!!🥰🥰🥰🥰
Rest In Heavenly Peace🙏🤍🕊🙏💙
My favorite Aretha Franklin song!
Backing vocalists are superb. Kudos!
The backing singers were her sisters! They also sang with her in the Blues Brothers movie. She also had Cissy Houston (Whitney’s mother) as a backing singer too.
@@JonathanReynolds1информация трогает душу .Спасибо ❤.Как нам много лет 😊
She’s in the backing vocals as well.
Oh, wow, I’ve never heard this song before! This is one of her most underrated songs! It’s so smooth and relaxed, I love it.
Welcome aboard! ❤️
It's a beautiful song
I only heard MJBs version til today!!! This one is smoooooth!
I Agree ❤️
Omg no This song was released doing my school daze in the 70..Off the album Young Gifted and Black!! Stayed on the top 20 for weeks back in the day!! Great skating jam also. So relaxing. I love it.
I'm thinking about someone who's not thinking of me......sad
Help me Jesus!
Quit it. You looking that way is keeping you from the blessing who is looking at and thinking of you!
Me too . Thanks hop
@@HOPROPHETAyou’ll grow stronger and unstoppable 💪
You are Loved!!! There Loss❤🌸
😢
She wrote this song 'Day Dreaming' and it received a Grammy nomination. It didn't win but I loving it 😊
In fact, she did win the grammy. But out of loyalty she gave it to Esther Phillips, "who deserved it more", in Aretha's own words. Esther was nominated for her album "Home is where the hatred is", but Aretha won. Esther just came out of rehab and this was a beautiful gesture from Aretha. She wrote it with Temptation Dennis Edwards in mind.
Did you know she wrote that song regarding Dennis Edwards of the Temptations. My favorite was “Oh me, Oh my” also regarding Dennis Edwards. He eventually married a Pointer Sister; I think June or Bonnie, as I recollect. Just a little tidbit for trivia sake.
@@elizabethroberts2970 Yes. It has been said that Aretha sang this song about Dennis Edwards of Temptations fame. However, Dennis had a relationship with oldest Pointer Sister, Ruth,, but they were never married. Check it Out! Ciao!!!
@@merkjanoosterhoff1590 She unfortunately did not win the Best Pop Performance Female Grammy for Day Dreaming. She won for Young, Gifted and Black in the R&B category.
@@sirblack1619 l know...(Daydreaming is on that album)
Here after it won Hivemind's favorite songs of all time bracket list
ayy same here brother
+1 waddup bois
yep me too
Not a modern woman's song. A song for traditional love and respect for one another.
I beg to differ
This song is truly for 2 people in love-that would be my man and me.
"Daydreaming" in 2023. It still has that vibe! ❤
My ex sister in law use to play this album in1970 or 71rip little Mary ❤❤
She wrote this about Dennis Edwards of the Temptations mentioned before on this site.. Aretha was head over heels in love with Mr. Edwards
Aretha Franklin was the Queen of Soul. It will never be another Aretha Franklin She was one in a million love you Aretha Franklin. Rest in peace ❤️ 🙏 🪦
This song is so smooth. Aretha's voice was so angelic. One of my all time favorites.....hey baby let's get away let's go somewhere....baby can we....where I don't care......
THIS SONG...THIS SONG...THIS SONG!!!!!!!! #queenofsoul
Born in my hometown of Memphis, TN miss you queen.
What a voice.
YESSSSSSSSSS
“THIS SONG” is right!!!!!!!
🖤 Queen
My favorite Aretha song.
Hey baby let's get away lalala
I am 73 but when I here the queen takes me to my younger days and it's wonderful. ❤
Like it was yesterday😢❤❤
Oh yes!
One of my favorite songs by Aretha Franklin love it!!!🎼🎶👌👍
Mine too
The 70's was the apex of Black Music. No discussion.
So good and so much variety.
Agreed.
Truly! So happy I got to “live” it and now so blessed to have UA-cam to re-listen.
My parents had this album, but it exists no more, including my own albums that were lost.😞
I had repurchased some things that I lost to play on iPod, but I can’t buy it all, so than god or somebody for UA-cam, bec even if I were a millionaire, some things aren’t available to download to play on iPhone to play.
@@basquait1 Yep! Lyrically sound and original instrumentation. The pre-synthezied music era.
Beautiful music
This song is about Dennis Edwards.
One of my favorite Aretha Franklin songs.
Shoutout to Pete rock for flipping this sample 💣💣 new common joint
Gotta check that out I think Cam when I hear this
I was 15 year's old when day dreaming came out in 1972 I've loved this song ever since😌💕🎉
11 here. 60 years (nearly 62) later and it still carries me away every time!
@@keshavadasa + I'm glad you still like the song, it's such a romantic song 😌 have a blessed day sir🙏🏼
@@keshavadasaкак волнует эта песня .❤❤
Same here, Paula! 💕 One great thing about having a heap of "life experience" (getting older) is the good stuff we remember. 🥰
@@rrrusty49 + So true. Enjoy your weekend🎉
I remember hearing this song was written about Dennis Edwards of The Temptations-This song still sounds great almost fifty years later.
Yep
Wowwwwwwwww🙏❤😊
This is my absolute favorite song by Mrs. Franklin. ❤❤❤❤
@@djwilliams169 Ms. She didn't marry mister Franklin.
I wonder what happened to their relationship. This is a really cool song to have written about you. I wonder if he really said, "Hey baby let's get away. Let's go somewhere Aretha!" Men today don't even say that. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
I'm feeling the synchronicity, I've been thinking about this song lately. Till you come back to me & Daydreaming are my 2 favs from Aretha.
mine too. Just so wonderful, both of them.
It sounded great on a transistor radio. And then 40 or 50 years later you hear it on headphones and… Wow. The flute, the subtle guitar licks. What a song
I'm daydreaming about a man calling and saying, "Hey Baby, let's get away. Let's go somewhere." Then, we get on a private plane and fly the friendly skies.🥰😎🥳💓💗
Rest peacefully sweet Angel 💜
'Day Dreaming of you' A Classic man. To never forget it. Aretha Franklin 😊❤️👑🎆. Love this song. Keep her music alive. #Detroit and world. #Angel
DOING MY PART, A LONG TIME NOW, DETROIT
This song touches the soul..
Listen with earphones drums are on one side and the bass is on the other it’s amazing how they did that back then 😊
Amazing
Wow! This sounds amazing 🤩
Just amazing!👍🏽
You’re so right!
yeah they had talent. today they dont. stereo isnt used. a sound is what it is, using a plug in. and haas is used on a vocal to make it "sound fat" and they sell your generation the record. and its crap. I defy ANY "beat maker" to attempt to use a plug in and make the drums all on one side and the bass on another and see how it comes out. it will sound like backside booty, because plug ins and digital recording cant match analog.
I can hear this song over and over and over I love this song rest in paradise Aretha🙏🏾😍
My favorite song by her❤
She was the greatest!❤
This song is sooo amazing...such a treat. Puts you in a good mood right away. She was Legendary. RIP, Queen.
I love her so much Thank you beautiful Aretha Franklin 😘🥰🤞🏾🙏🏾
So do I she was the greatest simply amazing Diva personified. 👑🙏❤🎵
AREATHAAAAAAA!!!!!! What a musicologist genius she was. Thank you for all of the beautiful music and just your voice that is something I will always treasure. You were pure euphoria. I will always love you Ms. Aretha Franklin. Queen 👑 of 🎼 🎶 🎵 soul. All the way from Nutbush, Tennessee❤️
Aretha Franklin what more can be said a genius beautiful music no bad words just beautiful music
YOU must be from Tina Turner’s hometown of Nutbush Tennessee bec Aretha Franklin was actually born in Memphis Tennessee, but when very young, her family migrated north (as a part of the African American “Great Migration” out of the South) to Buffalo NY (close the the Canadian border) but spent most of her childhood In Detroit Michigan.
One of my favorite songs period!!!
We gotta give the drummer some love. The man was going in on this song!💯
Absolutely beautiful song and silky smooth singing, she made it effortless! A legend…
Classic RiRi.
This was my Mom's favorite growing up as a child.
The queen of soul music who can play and sing write, and sing like nobody’s business! ♥️
I hadn't heard this song since it came out! What a treat!!!!!!!!
With Donny Hathaway on Electric Piano and Hubert Laws on Flute and Ms. Aretha saying she wrote this about Dennis "Don't Look Any Further" Edwards of The Temptations this great masterpiece had the wrappings of a hit.
Parents used to play this non stop at our home in Illinois...Great memories!!
💕💞💕
My mom played it living in Brooklyn NY
Nobody sings a song like Ms Franklin ❤
Beautiful words... thanks Aretha Franklin.
Always love her music grew up with her music ! loved this one
What Makes This Such "A DREAMY SLOW JAM," Ree Admitted She Wrote This Out Of A Huge Crush upon "DENNIS EDWARDS" Of THE TEMPTATIONS....
Actually she and he were a couple and she was was very much in love. They were engaged but she said Dennis drop kicked her a few times and she was done. The Queen herself said he was about 15 years too late realizing what he had with her & He admitted he should have just married her but he was scared. There’s several interviews out there.
I thought her big crush was on Sam Cooke.
@@nadyarossi5102 correct- her big crush was Sam Cooke. She spoke on that many times before. But Dennis Edwards she was madly in love with.
Woow!👏👏👏❤
This is one of my favorite Aretha tunes. I like the idea of daydreaming.
My favorite song of Aretha
Gotta find me and Angel, Ain't No way, Day Dreaming. In that order! Love you Aretha Franklin 👑 of Soul 🙏❤🔥🔥
One of her greatest self-penned originals (along with "Rock Steady") on one of her best albums...long live the Queen!
Wow I never knew Ms Aretha wrote this beautiful melody of words 😍😍😳😯 💕👑👑
I believe I read somewhere she was inspired to write this song during a fling with Dennis Edwards of the Temptations.
Still in shock God I miss Wombman like her
@@anthonywestjr1063 I Love it so much💕💕🥰🥰
@@liberatedeternity7731 🥂👦🏾👍🏾
@@anthonywestjr1063 YES.. Dennis Edwards was the love of her life.. He was quoted saying the biggest mistake in his life was not marrying her!!!!
Thank you, Aretha Franklin !❤👏👏👏
This song was written with Dennis Edwards in mind❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
Beautiful song love it
I love how positive this song is of her attraction to her man. A lot of songs now unfortunately put the man down.
Because you not the man she's singing about. None of y'all in this day
Facts no songs about black love exist now
This is just one of those songs you can't get enough of
THANK YOU GOD for BLESSING US with OUR BELOVED ONE and ONLY and NEVER to be DUPLICATED!!!!! May she ALWAYS Rest In Peace. Mrs. ARETHA FRANKLIN 🌹🌹🌹🌹💕💕💕💯💯💯🙏🙏🙌🙌. Gif bless ALL who reads!
Jeez, who makes music like this? So magical and amazing. I listened to it today and it sent me way back to another world, where I first heard it. Wow! Just wow!!!
Right!! This is real singing.
This song is the queen of soul daydreaming of the temptation Dennis Edwards he has her in a daze
FOREVER THE QUEEN OF SOUL, she can’t be touched 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Hands down....
Where has this been all my life?! What a beautiful song!!
this song moves me EVERY TIME I hear it
Rumors has it she wrote this when she was dating Dennis Edwards
Such a beautiful, calm & relaxing song. The way my nerves been doing jumping jacks lately, I'll take all the calm & relaxation I can get.
When your back up singers are Badass!!!
this is such a beautiful song. makes me want to cry from how beautiful it is.
Dennis Edward's of the temptations
Love this song
That's why I looked it up,it was on my mind.
Cuz, c'mon!!! What's not to love?! Takes me to a different place...
Same with Until U Come Back To Me 🥰
Oh, goodness... now I'm starting a big, 'ol list in my head 😬🤭
If u haven't seen her singing Natural Woman on Kennedy Center Honors, I whole heartedly recommend checking it out!!! ✌💜

No doubt the queen of soul. A forgotten classic you seldom hear these days.
THIS SONG NEVER GETS OLD.
I love this song so much. Happy heavenly 81st Birthday to the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin! ❤❤🥳🎉🕊️ 03/25/2023
One of my favourite Aretha Franklin songs. Listened to it on a 45rpm, until the grooves were almost nill!
I need to be who I need to be
One of my favorite Aretha songs! Her vocals are unmatched. She's your favorite singer's favorite singer! R.I.P. to the icon and legend Aretha Franklin! There will never be another! The Queen of Soul!!
Ms.Re Re can blow just was one in a million can't nobody touch her....in a class all by herself....she is so missed!!!!
This is an EXPERIENCE. Aretha's talent was not from this earth.
JUST NO!
Omg my boyfriend sent this to me and said it reminded him of us🥺🥺
I came to lusten this am 2:30 because now i , at 65 am caught up in the daydream of a beautiful man. At last. Again For the first time. Like never before. Amen
I was 15 years old when I first listen to this song on local soul stations, AM/FM broadcast in Chicago. The song received tremendous play, and actually was very popular. A great era of music from Aretha.
When I was in high-school, my friend and I would go to her house and this song was on the back of the record. We probably listened it over a hundred times. It was underrated for that song.
Been singing this to myself and finally had to listen to Queen Aretha sing it 💙
(much better than my voice 😄)
Wonderful song, hey, year 1972 ❣❣ 😘 I love my R&B, Soul, Jazz Diva FOREVER 😍🤩❤
Beautiful.
It was a hit in the 1970s 😎
My mother loved this song, therefore i do too! Tall black guy has a mix with al jarreau's voice on it, That's what brought me here.its called drift away where i dont care. It will move you.
❤awsome song one of my favorite songs by Ms. Franklin
Oh man if Dennis Edwards had stayed, they could have been the JZ and Yonce of their time!
An absolute classic
I forgot about this classic. She had so many hits. R.i.p. Queen of soul!
