I have been watching this morning too. Not sure if anyone else saw when they interviewed Gladys Knight and she talked about the last time she saw Aretha and she said they were both sharing how they have the same disease. :[[
Started an hour and a half late, due to difficulty with getting everyone into the church. So far, Smokey and the Rev. Al Sharpton have given the best tributes.
I saw that.Quote:

To watch the first two hours of Aretha's service I was bouncing around CNN, CBC Newsworld and CTV News channel in Canada. However, BET has been broadcasting since around noon PST, and is still going strong. What a send off with Chaka, Ronald Isley, Fantasia, and Jennifer Hudson so far. The Rev. Jasper William Jr. is stirring things up with his monologue. Gladys Knight just finished her musical triubte. Totally sublime! Stevie Wonder is up very soon.Attachment 14577

Global News did an excellent job. WDIV Channel 4 in Detroit also did a spectacular job. It was an amazing day.
I didn't watch it today, but I downloaded the entire thing from Youtube.
