oh c'mon Joe.. You can't really think Etta has a monopoly on a song that was done by folks for 20 years before she ever sang it. Besides, did you see Beyonce's performance of that song at Fashion Rocks, in front of and honoring Etta which happened at the time Beyonce was playing Etta on screen??

see the youtube here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxqpALfYhtQ

Beyonce does a fabulous rendition and Etta hugs her afterwards

how did you feel when Elvis did Blue Suede shoes? of the beatles did Buddy Holly's songs.??

I thought they were great

I know when I saw Charlton Heston's picture my heart stood still for a moment. the music industry is controlled by twelve year olds, perhaps film (I said film, I'm dating myself again) is heading the same way. Am I the only on getting really tired of ""Beyonce'......the fact she tried to do Etta James (while she is still alive) pissed me off more than when Whitney re-did Chaka Kahn's "I EVERY WOMAN"
