he was such a classy president. man, can she sing
So the queen takes your song and makes it timeless…I’d be so thankful…
Slay queen. What a performance.
I hope I’m wrong, but I’m afraid there will never be another talent like Aretha.
Oh My God
Obamas and Zeppelin just chillaxin listening to Arethra
It seems like “destroy” has maybe lost its meaning.
“more with Steven Col…”
He’s gotta follow that!?
This is so fucking good and I’ve never seen it before. I love Carole King’s reaction, such genuine surprise and delight at a legend singing her song. She’s so honest at her excitement in the moment. Love seeing musicians being fans of other musicians
Is that George Lucas next to her?
Oh wow, Carole King must have been so stoked! She really is an amazing songwriter. What an honor.
The Obamas were the loveliest people to have in the White House. I’m not saying he was a perfect prez; but overall it was a real feeling of aspirational grace, of looking ahead to the future and working toward positive change, of being, as a nation, a good citizen and a good example. [sigh] I miss that so much
Oh here is this video again. I guess I’ll watch it and cry tears of joy for the 17th time
Wonderful!
Masterful!
Delightful!
– what a time to be alive!
It’s actually amazing how it took all about 10 seconds for her to sit down and effortlessly get right into it.
Once in a lifetime talent.
This is one of my favourite videos and I will watch every time.
As soon as she sits down, everyone is blown away by just the first note.
This is a woman almost at the end of her life, refusing to go quietly.
Carole’s reaction, and also Obama getting teary eyed but trying to play it off
Music feeds the soul
Blimey , how good was that?
I’m a guy, but that dress Aretha is wearing. Magnificent.
When you mentioned ‘destroy’, I had expectations that this would be terrible, but it is absolutely incredible. True definition of a musical legend.
Two people who gave incredible gifts to music and deserve all the praise they get. Rest in Power, Aretha.
She’s incredible
I can’t watch this video without tearing up
Lovely!
I have two somewhat related questions, 1) I’ve seen other artists getting honored like this the other was Led Zeppelin’s stairway to heaven covered by another awesome rock band and they all have that rainbow lapel and pin thingy. What event is this?
And 2) why is it always just the obamas at these concerts? Did trump never get invited/bothered to show up? How about Biden? I don’t recall ever seeing bush either. Speaking as a non-American here, not trying to get political or anything. Are the obamas like patrons of this awarding institution or something?
She made that look so effortless!!
Aretha, Chance the Rapper, The cast of Hamilton I miss this president and the breadth of art appreciation . Remind me not to sit ten feet around Carol King.
DAMN!!! Still bring tears to my eyes….the woman is a legend, she just killed it!!!
The standing ovation had to start like a minute before the song ended and it still probably fell short.
