C&L Late Nite Music Club With Aretha Franklin Part 2

But she's also so much more. Here she is, singing Nessun Dorma: Aretha Franklin stepped in at the last minute to sing the standard aria Nessun Do
By Nicole Belle — October 9, 2006

But she's also so much more. Here she is, singing Nessun Dorma:

Aretha Franklin stepped in at the last minute to sing the standard aria Nessun Dorma (from Puccini's Turandot) at the 1998 Grammy telecast when Luciano Pavarotti took ill.

The Queen of Soul not only stepped in, she brought the roof down.
