1967 hit by Aretha Franklin whose title is spelled out in the lyrics (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

respect

(Other definitions for respect that I've seen before include "Show honour to" , "Deference, obedience" , "Pacific republic" , "High opinion or regard for" , "Venerate" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
