Aretha Franklin Respect "LIVE"


I chose this song because it has to do with women's rights.

I chose to upload the song "Big Yellow Taxi", initially written by Joni Mitchell, but in this case performed by the Counting Crows, because it talks about issues concering the environment and how we're literally "paving a paradise to put up a parking lot". In this day and age, we have turned into an industrialized society. As such, much of our "natural" surroundings are being destroyed to make room for buildings, businesses, and other infrastructure. This song discusses these issues and explains how we need to take care of our environment.
