I love Etta. I read recently she has been hospitalized with a blood infection.

That was what prompted me to post this. She appears to be recovering nicely, though. Hopefully she stays with us for many more years. :)

I have a cd of her singing old standards like Someone To Watch Over Me and Willow Weep for Me.
Makes me melt.

Ain't that right?!

The ladies, who've got it, just got it, haven't they?
I still can remember when my mother came home from a concert with Ella Fitzgerald - she walked on air for days afterwards, :lol: .

All the best to Etta James and may she make Aimless melt for many years to come.

On a side note - are those lyrics not an Aspie's nightmare?

" life is like a song " eh?
" my heart was wrapped in clover " 8O
" I found a dream that I could speak to " wow!
" a thrill I could rest my cheek to " ...

I am looking forward to open up the book of romantic language of courtship to my son in a few years, :lol: .

[quote="Aimless"]Ella! :heart:

This just might cheer Etta up and put a smile on Aimless's face ( Thank you for Ella, :sunny: ! )
