We listen to RP because it is supposed to be an alternative to mainstream radio which overplays songs like this.

Aretha Franklin is amazing BUT "RESPECT" IS NOT HER ONLY SONG!!

One line that's always had me mystified, and might be a mondegreen. After "R.E.S.P.E.C.T" does she sing "take up TCP"? I could understand that if yer man had halitosis, mind :o)

I always thought the acronym was "TCB" - which meant "take (or taking) care of business", even before the BTO song or Elvis Presley's use of the term.

According to the song info: "Plays in last 30 days: 2". I wouldn't count that as "so much"...

Sorry about that outburst but having lived through the 60's era and being a big fan of SOUL I get really pissed when I hear the garbage of today .

That's okay. You're allowed. Like me, you've lived through it when it was new.
