Great video! Please consider reacting to all of the tracks from Tommee Proffit's "The Birth of a King (Live)". I was fortunate enough to be at the concert (recorded in Nashville at the Fisher Center in December 2022); the full album/video was recently released, and is available on RU-vid. It's breathtaking!!!
Thank you for your knowledgeable and personal heartfelt expression and dissertation about this song. I really do like Tauren wells music, but not all of his runs due to my own music preference. But i do find his music, and the presentation of his gospel centric belief quite authentic, which removes any sense of artiface found with others. One of his drbut performance videos is found with FULLY KNOWN a humorous take on opem mike nights many performers face. This song placed him at the DOVE awards for best new Christian artist. He is valued and respected for his skills. ❤
Thanks for this. I agree: i've heard this song dozens of times. All beautiful. But i've never been moved as i was with this. Their "Fall on your knees" really hit me
My best friend and I flew to Nashville to see it a few weeks ago. It. Was. Incredible. Absolutely amazing. Thank you for spreading the news about this.
Wow, I've heard of Tommee Profitt as Diana Ankudinova's great cover of "I Can't Help Falling In Love" is based on his "DARK VERSION", but I'm not really familiar with his work... very curios the see what you got after your introduction... Starts off very promising... Beautiful voice! And then he cames in, and it builds and builds... amazing!
Certainly it is a most wonderful arrangement and vocal execution and delivery with a small quibble that is prevalent with post modern music.....and that is autotune or pitch correction syntethic vocal sound robbing the artists of true vocal character and expression to be more of their natural sounds. The perfect vocals are manufactured rather than organically delivered. It's a pity because artists of this caliber are no doubt capable of executing great vocal delivery without being artificially tuned to a grid based on 440 Hz tuning graph charts. This is why David Phelps version resonates much more to me and also being a live version meaning he had one shot and then you get what you hear without any correction. I recommend listening to South Korean Christian singer, So Hyang, who also does secular music on the side who also has her live version of O Holy Night circulating around RU-vid. She turned down a major record deal (in the US?) because she didn't want her faith to get distracted with secular pop stardom or at least so I heard. If David Phelps is O Holy Night king for male singers then So Hyang may be the queen of the female versions of O Holy Night. Coincidentally enough both being Christian singers which goes to show meaning what you sing will go a long long way with the listeners......having the chops help but meaning the words sung and making the sounds that you feel separates the vocalist from the artist. Can you imagine the emptiness of an atheist singing O Holy Night no matter how fabulous his/her chops are?
@@JohanBesterYourVocalCoach There is no doubt about that. It's the processed nature of the vocals in this version that is my quibble not the notes hit. It is fantastic but plastic.
