Stevie Would Be Perfect For This, IMO...

[TakenByTheSky23]

Unfortunately, the great Etta James died today from complications from leukemia - and rest in peace. Now, at the link below, there are musings of an Etta James tribute at the upcoming Grammy's and a list of some contenders from the reporter's point of view. And our sweet girl wasn't included, go figure.

We all know that Stevie did a heartstopping rendition on James' At Last in 1998:

Any thoughts on how Stevie might tackle this song in 2012? I think that she'd still be able to do a pretty knockout job...especially the killer last note. The song is mostly in a lower register, anyhow - and I still think it's perfect for her.

Even if she has/had been approached for this gig (hate to say it, but not likely...who besides diehard fans even know about her live version of At Last?), I wonder if she would be up for it.

Incidentally, I think it's one of the best songs that she has ever tackled...period.
