Etta James於1/20因病逝世，享壽73歲。 以下為Bee在官網的悼念文： BEYONCÉ PAYS TRIBUTE TO THE ETERNALLY GREAT ETTA JAMES! January 20th 2012 "This is a huge loss. Etta James was one of the greatest vocalists of our time. I am so fortunate to have met such a queen. Her musical contributions will last a lifetime. Playing Etta James taught me so much about myself, and singing her music inspired me to be a stronger artist. When she effortlessly opened her mouth, you could hear her pain and triumph. Her deeply emotional way of delivering a song told her story with no filter. She was fearless, and had guts. She will be missed."
