robin terry, ceo of the motown museum. what i've been struck by most is our -- the pastor at the church where her father ministered, where we first learned the grace of her. some of my colleagues here say aretha franklin would e-mail them or text them or call them. african-americans, young, coming up in the business, saying stay at it, i'm proud of your work. do we me thaiss that part of he? how do you decelebrated that pa, not just the music? >> i mean, people come to the museum from all over the world. it is -- you know, part of what was so endearing about aretha franklin is she was this iconic celebrity but at the same time never lost her common touch. so for detroiters, you know, she was that girl around the corner. she was just part of the neighborhood, an important part of the community. >> to that point about her wanting to keep her roots in the community, wanting to help the community, she performed at your 20th anniversary at the motown museum. tell us about that. >> she did. i mean, many people thought that areth

she was of detroit, wasn't part of motown but is as good or better than any of the motown singers.oir of her father, the reverend c.l. franklin. she could combine gospel with rock and soul. and even opera. she could do it all. that's why she's so much more than an image. >> and i was so struck by learning something i have not known, she was -- first of all, she played the piano. her mother was a pianist. she played the piano from childhood. one of her childhood friends saying when she was 5 years old she was on the keyboard. she went and enrolled in julliard in the late '90s because she wanted to refine her classical piano education, and in fact stood in at one of the grammys and jumped in when her great friend was -- i'm trying to remember which great singer -- >> it was bpavarotti. >> and ended up singing his arias. >> you're talking about smoky robinson who was a great friend of aretha's older brother, and came over to the big franklin house on oakland avenue in detroit and saw what he called a cutie pie playing the piano, she was 3 or 4 years old, and that was aretha franklin.

motown changed american popular music. you? >> hi. how are you, don? >> i'm okay. you have known aretha franklin for decades. you say she was part of your family. tell me what she meant to you. >> yes. well, first of all, i'm just -- it's kind of an out of body experience thinking about the fact that she's not here. it's just very strange. she meant so much to me. first, she was my home girl. i didn't hang out with her like she did with smokey and that gang because they were coming up kind of the same way, but she was very close to motown and its artists and they loved her. she loved us. and she had -- she came from the church, and you always knew that in her music. >> did that contribute to her level of artistry? talk to me about what she brought to her music. >> she brought originality. she brought love. she brought kind of genius to it. she didn't know it, because it was in her soul. and she made every song her own. you know? it was aretha franklin. she could take a song, for instance, that was the abc's. she could sing

to motown fame through the decades. >> well, let's see. aretha was never be motown, you know?t fortunate. >> to see you all grow together, whether or not she was with motown, and she will be considered part of motown family, as you said, but what was it like to see knew from the age of 5, and you both to reach the fame, and the appreciation that you had? >> you know, robin, we always had a relationship that was almost like it had nothing to do with show business. it was just, you know, when we were kids, when we were young, we all wanted that, and those of us who were blessed enough to get it, there were a lot of people in our neighborhood like diana ross lived four doors down the street. the temptations lived three blocks over. there were a lot of us in that neighborhood, and those of us who were blessed enough to get our wish or our dream to be in show business, we just always had regular relationships. we very seldom -- when we got together, even talked about show business. >> it's this friendship. we'll put up a picture you shared with us. it was one of the last photos you

she was motown because she was in our family.etroit music-wise, man, if we were to get off an another subject here is that every city, every country, every township, every little village where ratio-wise in the world probably has that same amount of talent that you saw come out of detroit. what we had was barry gordy, man, someone who started something that was worldwide. >> please stay with us. dr. martin eric dyson also grew up in detroit, a dear friend of aretha franklin's michael, you were at the one birthday party i got to go to, and you knee aretha much better than i did and a much closer relationship. please jump in here. we're talking about detroit. help us out. >> we articulated the belief that there was a composure of talent there, a component there was extraordinary, that probably was in memphis and, you know, in chicago as well. but not only did it have barry gordy but the convergence of the automobile industry about an assembly line that would produce music at such a high rate. and the great black migration, people f

she was given a chance to go to the motown label in the early days but she went to atla ntic label inuite remarkable with some of the song she turned out. she had 117 singles in america in the top 100, which is absolutely amazing. how do you sum up the legacy of a singer like that who has been around for so long, had so many hits, and such an influence on world music really? well, i don't think she will ever be replaced. she has a remarkable voice, a unique voice. there are lots of great soul singers around that they owe a lot to aretha franklin. that voice is very special, something that cannot be taught, from a gospel background and a unique performer. great to talk to you. thank you for being with us. tony blackburn with his thoughts and memories of aretha franklin. more on one of our top stories, that today teenagers in england, wales and northern ireland have been getting their a—level results. the proportion of pupils getting the top grades is the highest for six years, with more than one in four students receiving either an a or an a—star. there has also been a rise in uncondit
