No matter the date, women bring life and music, so I would like to honor the greatest women of music that sadly are not with us anymore. Still, their songs keep resonating through playlists all over the world.
One of the most talented singers I've ever heard is Amy Winehouse Yeah! We all know Rehab as one of her best songs. We also have to talk about Back in Black, Valerie, or Love is a losing game. Damn, I feel goosebumps just thinking how someone could come up with such good lyrics and sound. And perhaps Amy is not what my generation used to hear anymore (I'm 25). Still, no one can doubt the talent and impact in the musical scene of Amy. Her voice was slippering through a mix of ja0zz, R&B, and soul without any effort.
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble.
You know that I'm no good.
Janis Joplin. I'm not the biggest fan of Janis because her music turned out hard for me to understand and interpret, but I have massive respect for her. She's such an icon of the rock counterculture of 1960 and considerer one of the first female rock stars. Since she was super energetic on the stage, I will leave you the link for one of the best live presentations.
Etta James. OMG, I'd rather be blind was such a banger for me; I listened to that song almost every day ( the original version). Even though many artists have interpreted this song beautifully, Etta James gives a special touch.
However, I will leave one here that surprised me a lot when I found out the original singer
Something's Got A Hold On Me
R. E. S. P. E. C. T
Find out what it means to me!!!!!
