How have I never heard this Etta James Song before yesterday?

[irisblue]

Lyrics... I can do what I want
I'm in complete control
That's what I tell myself
I gotta a mind of my own
I'll be alright alone
Don't need anybody else
I gave myself a good talking to
No more bein' a fool for you
But I see ya
And all I remember
How you make me want to surrender
Damn your eyes
For taking my breath away
Makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For gettin' my hopes up high
Making me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
It's always the same
You say that you'll change
Somehow you never do
I believe all your lies
The look in your eyes
You make it all seem true
I guess I see what I want to see
Or is it my heart just deceivin' me?
Because with that look I know so well
I fall completely under your spell
Damn your eyes
For takin' my breath away
For makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For gettin' my hopes up high
For makin' me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
You keep deliberately deceivin' me
Makin' me see what I want to see
Damn your eyes
For takin' my breath away, hey
For makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For getting'my hopes up high
For making me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
Damn your eyes
For taking my breath away
Damn damn your eyes
For getting my hopes up high
For making me fall in love
Fall in love again
Damn damn your eyes
Songwriters: Barbara Wyrick / Steve Bogard

1. One Of My Favorites. Love Me Some "Peaches".....

.....as Etta was affectionately called. Have you heard "One Night With You"? Give a listen, it's my favorite of all her songs.

2. Have you heard "Sunday Kind of Love"?

I want a Sunday kind of love
A love to last past Saturday night
And I'd like to know it's more than love at first sight
And I want a Sunday kind of love
Oh yea yea
I want a a love that's on the square
Can't seem to find somebody
Someone to care
And I'm on a lonely road that leads to no where
I need a Sunday kind of love
I do my Sunday dreaming, oh yea
And all my Sunday scheming
Every minute, every hour, every day
Oh I'm hoping to discover
A certain kind of lover
Who will show me the way
And my arms need someone
Someone to enfold
To keep me warm when Mondays and Tuesdays grow cold
Love for all my life to have and to hold
Oh and I want a Sunday kind of love
Oh yea yea yea
I don't want a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, or Thursday, Friday or Saturday
Oh nothing but Sunday oh yea
I want a Sunday Sunday
I want a Sunday kind of love
Oh yea
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday kind of love

Songwriters: Anita Nye / Barbara Belle / Louis Prima / Stanley Rhodes

3. Thanks for the song!

Love Etta.

Here's a cover of "Cry to me" that I LOVE. It's not Etta, but I think you'll like this, irisblue.

One of the sexiest and soulful covers I've seen!
