D'Angelo understood the power of subtlety. The steady backbeat. Vamp-like song form structures that were intricately put together. Tight, evenly paced bass notes that cushioned a groove. And those elegant falsetto vocals stacked atop more elegant falsetto vocals.

“I'm really glad I didn't get married. I'm an oddball. I remember in high school, this guy came up to me and said, ‘One day you're going to make a good wife.’ And I thought, ‘I don't want to be a wife. No.’” RIP Diane Keaton, Oscar winner for “Annie Hall”.

Diane Keaton, whose long, versatile career was indelibly highlighted by her Academy Award-winning performance as Woody Allen’s titular love interest in the actor-writer-director’s 1977 romantic comedy “Annie Hall,” has died. She was 79. https://t.co/s5A3frPphI
