R.I.P.

“A lot of people think the blues is depressing,” she told The Los Angeles Times in 1992, “but that’s not the blues I’m singing. When I’m singing blues, I’m singing life. People that can’t stand to listen to the blues, they’ve got to be phonies.”
-Etta James, January 25, 1938 – January 20, 2012

*always rooting for the underdog.





*a man picking up garbage and an orca is jumping up out of the water to say "thank you".
