Rosetta

"Rosetta" is a song by Japanese indie music group Mili, written in the perspective of a controlling mother/caretaker who is overly attached to their daughter, Rosetta, and wants to keep her to themself.

Sister Rosetta Tharpe (March 20, 1915 – October 9, 1973) was an American singer, songwriter, guitarist, and recording artist. She attained popularity in the 1930s and 1940s with her gospel recordings, characterized by a unique mixture of spiritual lyrics and rhythmic accompaniment that was a precursor of rock and roll. She was the first great recording star of gospel music and among the first gospel musicians to appeal to rhythm-and-blues and rock-and-roll audiences, later being referred to as "the original soul sister" and "the Godmother of rock and roll". She influenced early rock-and-roll musicians, including Little Richard, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Rosetta Millington is the wife of American actor Balthazar Getty. They have 4 children: Cassius, Grace, Violet, and June.
