Aretha Franklin - 'Don't Play That Song' | 2007 Induction

Aretha Franklin performs “Don't Play That Song” in tribute to Ahmet Ertegun at the 2007 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.

Wow! Aretha Franklin was in rare form in this performance! RIP, Queen of Soul ~ RIP. ⚘

[tasibho]

Ive always found it ironic how a song about pain could be so upbeat and joyful. The Queen was in her element that night! Bravo!

[mayfieldnorris]

Stunning! Queen of Soul. She went old school

[antd]

At 1:54, showcases why I love her musical style. She never sang the same song the same. Always added flavor and ab libs to it. Those ab libs and mannerisms changed with time and the aging of her voice.

Ahmet is at the center of American music culture because his label (Atlantic), pursued the documentation and recording of great black artists.He was way ahead of the game. Thanks to Ahmet II've had a treasury of music to get me through this life. God bless our Queen of soul Aretha

[patclare]

I love this song, this performance and Aretha so much.

[sebastianwelcome]

yea l like the panio bit at the beginning and break down bit in middle she wrote and played that song to 53 years ago

[Just-for_fun]

It took me time to realize that she was a true queen not until I kept watching her performances and analyzing her lyrics and emotions tied to every performance, there I saw that in our era, we witnessed a queen, gone but never to be replaced. I cry whenever I see talent being replaced by bubble gum performers with no talent

[davidharrison]

[ReadyFreddie]

Brilliant! Best latter day performance of this song on YouTube!

[cosse]

Sublime, magique. Insoutenable de beauté. La Reine des Reines.

[AbassJamiu-vwum]

You know what's brings me back to the song is seeing the queen playing the song emotional again 😅😅😊🎉

[sushi]

[LucioRozendo]

Não toque essa música


Não toque essa música para mim

Porque ela me traz memórias

De dias que uma vez conheci

Aqueles dias que eu passei com você


Oh não! me deixe baby (oh não)

Porque isso enche meu coração de dor

Então por favor pare agora mesmo

Porque eu me lembro exatamente do que ele disse


Ele disse "Querida", mas eu sei que ele mentiu

Você sabe que mentiu, você sabe que mentiu

Mentiu, você mentiu (Para mim)

Ei, senhor, não toque mais

Não toque mais


Eu não aguento

Não toque mais

Não mais, não mais

Eu me lembro do nosso primeiro encontro

Ele me beijou e foi embora


Eu tinha apenas 17

Eu nunca sonhei que ele fosse ser tão mal

Ele me disse "Querida eu te amo"

Mas, baby, baby, você mentiu


Você, você mentiu, você sabe que mentiu, mentiu

Oh, querida, você sabe que mentiu, é

Você sabe que eu sei que você mentiu

Querida, você mentiu

Você mentiu, você mentiu

Você é tudo de que eu preciso

Você mentiu

Oh, você mentiu

Ei, baby, não toque mais, chega

Não, não brinque mais, chega

Eu não aguento mais

Oh, ei! Não toque mais

Don't Play That Song (You Lied)


Don't play that song for me

'Cuz it brings back memories

Old days that I once knew

The days that I spent with you


Oh no! Don't let them play it

It fills my heart with pain

Please stop it right away

'Cuz I remember just what he said,


He said, "Darling" and I know that he lied

You know that you lied, you know that you lied

Lied, you lied (to me)

Hey mister don't play it no more

Don't play it no more


I can't stand it

Don't play it no more

No more, no more

I remember on our first date,

He kissed me and he walked away


I was only seventeen,

I never dreamed he'd be so mean

He told me, "Darling, I love you"

Baby, baby, you lied


You, you lied you know that you lied, lied lied

Oh darling, you know that you lied, yeah

You know I know you lied.

Darling, you lied

You lied, you lied

You're all that I need

You lied

Oh, you lied

Hey baby don't play it no more, don't do it

Don't play it no more, no more

I can't stand it no more

OOh hey! Don't play it no more
