Together, we offered a final, proud salute to the colors under which more than a million of our fellow citizens fought – and several thousand gave their lives Barack Obama – State of the Union (2012)

Sadly, James' own life was not quite “like a song”. She had a well-documented heroin addiction and her husband spent ten years in prison when they both got arrested for heroin possesion

Marked this as missing something?
3 years

A Sunday Kind of Love is the prequel to Etta James' hit track At Last and ventures into the struggles of the search for long-lasting love. By stating that her, “lonely days are over” James' creates parallels between the two songs as the lyric, “I’m on a lonely road which leads to nowhere,” is mentioned in A Sunday Kind of Love.

Therefore, this line is used to emphasise the Eureka feeling of finding true love after such a long search.

A song originally written in 1941 by Mack Gordon and Harry Warren and originally performed by Glenn Miller and His Orchestra for the 1941 movie Sun Valley Serenade, this ballad found its greatest success in the hands of the late Etta James in this 1960 recording. The tune became James' signature song.

The song is featured on several “best of” lists, including inclusion in the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry and induction into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999.
