Watch Aretha Franklin rock the national anthem on Thanksgiving Day in Detroit

Even at age 74, Aretha Franklin still has it.

The "Queen of Soul" kicked off Thanksgiving Day football Thursday afternoon with a stirring rendition of the national anthem. And while it was certainly excellent, she had no trouble taking her time.

If anyone deserves as much time as they want though, it's Franklin.

Ok, if the morning starts with Aretha Franklin singing the National Anthem, I just don't know how it can get much better. #legend

Aretha Franklin is pretty far up at the top of the list of folks who can take however long they want with the national anthem.
