Beyoncé’s version is ok, but no one can capture the pain in Etta James voice when she sings this and church bells ..

I was 9 when I heard this song. Momma would race to the stereo to turn the volume up and start dancing she would say to me “Come Here And Dance And Dance With Momma” needless to say she taught me how to music such as this! At 64 I still miss dancing with momma!

Listening while decorating my Christmas tree. My son walked in and caught me swaying back and forth on the ladder and using a tree pick as a microphone.

My god this gave me chills. She was absolutely amazing! ❤️

And for all of you who doesn't know, Ms Etta, James came from a time erra that tested her perseverance and strength, because of how she was conceived and raised. Some say she was a rape baby (by a white man); and others says her mother was a whorer and her father was a "trick", either way, she was rejected by both parents as well as society. At a very young age she had to fin for herself; living in multiple group homes for girls (having to deal with cruel racism and depression); begging, prostitution (being raped a lot,) drugs; and she overcame her adversaries and despaires to become one of America's influential singers, representing African-Americans.

I'D STAGGER HOME MY MAMA WAS ALWAYS THERE HELPING ME AND CRYIN WIT ME. TELLING ME, BABY, " THIS TOO SHALL PASS. THIS TOO SHALL PASS. I'M 68 YEARS NOW, MAMA REST IN PEACE, ALWAYS KNOWING YOU LOVED ME MY WHOLE LIFE. I STOPPED DRINKING 48 YEARS AGO. ETTA JAMES KNOWING UR LIFE MADE ME THINK THIS TOO SHALL PASS. SINCERELY SOLEDAD.

I’m 13 years old and honestly kids my age don’t realize how good music was before our time. Music like this has a special place in me❤️.
