Etta James Dies Aged 73

We have lost another talented singer. 

Etta James died at the age of 73 of complications from leukaemia and she will be missed. Her music will live on forever and generations will come and they will also enjoy her timeless music. One of my favourite songs by Etta James is "At last." That is a beautiful song and I also like "I'd rather go blind."

Beyonce who played cardillac records a great film about Etta James said this about her death.

“This is a huge loss. Etta James was one of the greatest vocalists of our time. I am so fortunate to have met such a queen. Her musical contributions will last a lifetime. Playing Etta James taught me so much about myself, and singing her music inspired me to be a stronger artist. When she effortlessly opened her mouth, you could hear her pain and triumph. Her deeply emotional way of delivering a song told her story with no filter. She was fearless, and had guts. She will be missed.” 


Rest in Peace Etta, you will be missed
