So as I prepare to witness the Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin perform live in Chicago, I have been brushing up on my favorite Aretha tunes. One of my favorites is "Ain't No Way." Check her out in the link below singing the song live.
Aretha Franklin "Ain't No Way"
I think this song says a lot for some people in a relationship. I know it has definitely echoed some of my feelings from a past relationship. Sometimes we find ourselves wanting to love someone completely but they just won't allow it. Thinking of it, I must admit that I have also been the person to not allow people to love me completely. A bad habit that I had in the past but I am now reformed! I think.
I've learned from that experience that I can't waste my time trying to give someone all of me if they are just making it impossible. It's hard to move on because we try to believe that eventually the person will change and things will be great. Other times we are just in denial about the situation.
But Aretha taught me that it just ain't no way. If you don't want my love, I definitely won't keep forcing on it on you. Deuces!
Do you have a favorite Aretha jam? What are some other songs that made you realize that you have to move on?
