I Thought The Song Respect Was About Respecting Women, But I Just Realized Aretha Franklin Was Just Trying To Get Her Back Blown Out

[⠝⠕⠏⠑]

[Huda2daf]

She look like she had that wet mouf too

 

[TreySav]

Why not both? Sexual satisfaction for your partner is apart of respect. I don’t think they are mutually exclusive
Retha wanted to get smutted out the one she was with…nothing wrong with that.

Same energy

Blow my back out but don’t make me feel like a hoe about it . Seems fair and reasonable to me

According to Dobkin, Franklin's version was refashioned as a declaration from a strong, confident woman, who believes she has everything her man wants and does not wrong him, while demanding his "respect" – in the form of appropriate levels of physical attention.
----
Rolling Stone named "Respect" one of the top five greatest songs of all time, saying: "Franklin wasn't asking for anything. She sang from higher ground: a woman calling an end to the exhaustion and sacrifice of a raw deal with scorching sexual authority. In short, if you want some, you will earn it."



yes.

 

[Clayton Endicott]

Young Aretha was fine asf...

Never knew what she said after the repeat "respect", makes so much sense now.

It was never in the original Redding song, but Franklin and her sisters added the trademark line sock it to me to the song. Her sisters Erma and Carolyn Franklin can be heard singing the added line. Though the term was often considered a sexual reference, Franklin denied this in an interview. “There was nothing sexual about that,” said Franklin in 2014. “It’s like if you gave me a high five.”

yea, sure

 

[The God Poster]

Same energy

 

[SCJoe]

That song “Ring My Bell” , is like this without the respect.

 

[Seoul Gleou]

if that song came out today, it'd be call "NUTTING"
"all im asking...is for a nikka to nut when he come home"
