  • Aretha Franklin's Gendered Re-Authoring of Otis Redding's
    Popular Music (2014) Volume 33/2. © Cambridge University Press 2014, pp. 185–207 doi:10.1017/S0261143014000270 ‘Find out what it means to me’: Aretha Franklin’s gendered re-authoring of Otis Redding’s ‘Respect’ VICTORIA MALAWEY Music Department, Macalester College, 1600 Grand Avenue, Saint Paul, MN 55105, USA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In her re-authoring of Otis Redding’s ‘Respect’, Aretha Franklin’s seminal 1967 recording features striking changes to melodic content, vocal delivery, lyrics and form. Musical analysis and transcription reveal Franklin’s re-authoring techniques, which relate to rhetorical strategies of motivated rewriting, talking texts and call-and-response introduced by Henry Louis Gates, Jr. The extent of her re-authoring grants her status as owner of the song and results in a new sonic experience that can be clearly related to the cultural work the song has performed over the past 45 years. Multiple social movements claimed Franklin’s ‘Respect’ as their anthem, and her version more generally functioned as a song of empower- ment for those who have been marginalised, resulting in the song’s complex relationship with feminism. Franklin’s ‘Respect’ speaks dialogically with Redding’s version as an answer song that gives agency to a female perspective speaking within the language of soul music, which appealed to many audiences. Introduction Although Otis Redding wrote and recorded ‘Respect’ in 1965, Aretha Franklin stakes a claim of ownership by re-authoring the song in her famous 1967 recording. Her version features striking changes to the melodic content, vocal delivery, lyrics and form.

We’re Learning! ©2013 Look! We’re Learning! Page 2 Otis Redding Biography Otis Redding was an American soul singer who became famous during the 1960s. He was born on September 9, 1941, outside the tiny town of Dawson, Georgia to his parents Otis Redding, Senior and Fannie Mae Redding. Otis grew up in a large family. He was the fourth of six children. To make ends meet, he worked by picking cotton with his parents and his siblings. But even as a young child, Otis was different. He sang all the time, even on the way to and from the cotton fields. When Otis was young, he and his family moved to the larger city of Macon, Georgia. Growing up there, Otis drew inspiration from other Georgia musicians who were beginning to become famous, including Little Richard and James Brown. One of the local celebrities in Macon was a singer named Gladys Williams. Every week, she invited singers and musicians to participate in a live competition at a local nightclub. When Otis was 15, he entered the competition. Even though he was a good singer, he didn’t know how to sing in time with the musicians playing the number, and Gladys stopped him in the middle of the song. ©2013 Look! We’re Learning! Page 3 He was embarrassed by his performance, but he kept trying. The next time he went to the competition, he won first place.
