A versão de Aretha Franklin de “Respect”, lançada em 10 de abril de 1967, foi um cover da gravação original de Otis Redding, mas Franklin reformulou a música para expressar a perspectiva feminina.
O single alcançou o primeiro lugar na Billboard Hot 100 e permaneceu no topo por duas semanas, garantindo a Franklin dois Grammys em 1968, incluindo o primeiro de oito Grammys consecutivos de Melhor Performance Vocal Feminina de R&B.
Em 1998 Franklin regravou “Respect” para integrar a trilha sonora do filme *Blues Brothers 2000*.
A canção foi incluída no Grammy Hall of Fame (1987) e no National Recording Registry da Biblioteca do Congresso (2002), reconhecendo seu valor histórico e cultural.
“Respect” foi eleita a maior canção de todos os tempos pela *Rolling Stone* em 2021 e 2024, além de ser classificada como a quarta maior canção de protesto da história pela mesma publicação em 2025.
