"I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)" is a groundbreaking 1967 soul single released by American singer Aretha Franklin. It became a defining song for the Memphis-born, Detroit-raised musician, in that it became the first big hit of her career. The song peaked at number one on the Rhythm and Blues charts and number nine on the pop charts. The B-side was "Do Right Woman, Do Right Man". Up until then, Franklin placed two Top 40 singles on the pop chart during her modest tenure on Columbia Records.

“The fate of the country does not depend on how you vote at the polls,—the worst man is as strong as the best at that game; it does not depend on what kind of paper you drop into the ballot- box once a year, but on what kind of a man you drop from your chamber into the street every morning.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
