@vanmoody 2 года назад

When I was in the Air Force a young black airman gave me a compliment and said to me after we were singing together,"Van, you sing pretty good for a white guy". See when all Christians get to Heaven we will all sing. But some sing better than others.

@chrispleasantable 2 года назад

One of my old churches would sing this song at the end of our Christmas program. I was on the drums, my brother Jason was on guitar and my pastor Orville Jones, Jr. was on the organ. Jason would start it on the guitar with some tapping and the Pastor Jones would come in.

With all due respect, Rose, because I'm agnostic, leaning toward atheism, I'm so happy to be listening to this heavenly music here on earth. "Lord" knows we need so many more spiritual experiences like it in our 24/7 lives.

@ronaldray1130 2 года назад

@@DougWild Hello Doug. Pardon me as I know that you were originally referring to Rose. If you have not yet changed your mind please know that God does truly exist. I used to toy around with that idea myself and I was raised in a Christian household. I can now say for certain a Heavenly Father God truly exists and if you place your trust in him, you will not regret it. God Bless you. 🙏

@wchopkins6653 2 года назад

This entire album literally changed lives - including my own. Raised to be a classical music purist, it was challenging to hear that Handel's Messiah would be interpreted through an African-American context. Yet, as a fan of Quincy Jones, Mervyn Warren (producers) and all the artist attached to the project, I knew it was worth a fair chance. Upon first hearing (on cassette, then later on CD), The whole work burst through, and helped me to understand the original work even better. Each piece is deciphered, interpreted, re-worked, and evolved with faithfulness to Handel's artistry, but with new tools and voices richer than anything heard prior to the late 20th century. In less technical terms, these artists SING the songs to their fullest. The instrumentals are given a new freedom and a life of their own. To hear this, the only response can possibly be "Hallelujah!"

@LiverpoolPublicLibrary Год назад

Ah...but if Handel were alive today (along with Bach, Beethoven, and all those others), his response would likely be "Show me the royalty check. If my stuff gets out there and I get paid, I'm happy." Indeed, arrangements like this might be the "gateway drug" to the originals.

@phalinimcleod8819 Год назад

Wow. Well said. I also felt that I understood the original work even better. Thank you for articulating my experience.
