Aretha Franklin

Aretha Franklin es una cantante de soul, R&B y gospel. Nació el 25 de marzo de 1942 en Memphis (Tennessee). Apodada como "Lady Soul" o "Queen of soul" (La Dama [o Reina] del Soul), es para algunos una de las artistas más influyentes en la música contemporánea. A mediados de los años 60 se consolidó como estrella femenina del soul, algo que usó en favor de los derechos raciales en Estados Unidos, siendo un elemento influyente dentro del movimiento racial y de la liberación femenina. Ha influido a decenas de artistas, como Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Janis Joplin, Natalie Cole, Christina Aguilera, Alicia Keys, Aaron Neville, Annie Lennox.

Letra de Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves
Now there was a time when they used to say
That behind every - "great man."
There had to be a - "great woman."
But in these times of change you know
That it's no longer true.
So we're comin' out of the kitchen
'Cause there's somethin' we forgot to say to you (we say)

Sisters are doin' it for themselves.
Standin' on their own two feet.
And ringin' on their own bells.
Sisters are doin' it for themselves.

Now this is a song to celebrate
The conscious liberation of the female state!
Mothers - daughters and their daughters too.
Woman to woman
We're singin' with you.
The "inferior sex" got a new exterior
We got doctors, lawyers, politicians too.
Everybody - take a look around.
Can you see - can you see - can you see
There's a woman right next to you.

Sisters are doin' it for themselves.
Standin' on their own two feet.
And ringin' on their own bells.
Sisters are doin' it for themselves.

Now we ain't makin' stories
And we ain't layin' plans
'Cause a man still loves a woman
And a woman still loves a man
(Just a same though)
