The song "At Last" was supposedly the Obama's favorite song. Etta James was not an Obama supporter and as a result was not ask to sing. Instead the honor was given to Beyonce to which Etta did not have kind words in regards to her performance.

Etta James did not sing at Obama's inauguration because she was not invited to perform. The decision to choose performers for the inauguration is made by the incoming presidential administration and their team, and it is likely that other artists were chosen for the event.
