She's one of the best singers of her generation of working pros:

She does appear to be quite technically proficient, but I'm still not that blown away by her singing style. It just seems that nowadays, if a singer wraps their notes in the same generic ornamentation and has a certain look on their face when they're singing, they call it "soul." To me it sounds like they're practicing their scales. Whereas with someone like Aretha Franklin or Tina Turner, there's a certain unique quality in the timbre and timing of their voices which just sounds more authentic and "from the heart" at least to my ears. Part of it is that the general standard of songwriting was much better in those days, so singers had a much better platform on which to "feel it." 

All those other people in that video... the ones with the big smiles on their faces; They must not be able to understand that.
