This signed sheet music is for Think by Aretha Franklin, autographed by the Queen of Soul herself. Released in 1968 on the album Aretha Now, Think is one of Aretha Franklin’s most powerful and enduring anthems. Written by Franklin and her then-husband Ted White, the song combines fiery gospel energy with funk and R&B grooves, all propelled by Aretha’s unmatched vocal delivery. Lyrically, it is a demand for freedom and respect within a relationship, but it quickly took on a broader resonance as a rallying cry for empowerment and independence during the civil rights era. The song soared to number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent three weeks at number 1 on the R&B chart, becoming one of Aretha’s signature hits. Franklin revisited the song in 1980 for The Blues Brothers film, cementing its place as a timeless cultural anthem. Aretha Franklin (1942–2018) was not only a groundbreaking vocalist but also a songwriter, pianist, and activist whose influence on music and culture is immeasurable. Known as the Queen of Soul, she delivered a string of classics including Respect, Chain of Fools, and (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman. With Think, Franklin created a song that was at once deeply personal and universally resonant, embodying her ability to merge artistry with social consciousness. Her voice—full of power, emotion, and conviction—helped make the song an enduring symbol of strength and liberation. Owning this signed sheet music for Think is more than a collectible—it’s a piece of history tied to one of Aretha Franklin’s most defining works. For fans of soul, admirers of Franklin’s artistry, and collectors of iconic music memorabilia, this artifact embodies the passion, brilliance, and cultural impact of a song that remains as relevant today as it was in 1968.
