    This song was around the time of the Civil Rights Movement. A cry for people to love one another and be prepared for the coming of the Lord.

    Not "Georgia"; "Jordan". This is a Gospel classic, straight up and simple. And it's been on my playlist for a long time. Beautiful, no matter what your spirituality thing may be.

    Ready for the Gospel "train to Jordan" . . . No ticket needed, "all you need is faith...just get on board".

  • @kathyowens4811
    @kathyowens4811 2 года назад +7

    They did not say Georgia. They said Jordan. This is a gospel song.
    Are you going to heaven or hell? Either place you won't need a ticket to get in.
    In the meantime get ready.

  • @827dusty
    @827dusty 2 года назад +21

    It's the "Train to Salvation," in Jesus Christ. What a great old song. It's been covered by hundreds, if not thousands of artists in R&B, Country, and Pop music genres. Jesus loves them all!
    God Bless

  • @gpxo11
    @gpxo11 2 года назад +7

    People Get Ready is a timeless classic-Jordan being a metaphor for Heaven. The train and key to climb aboard without a ticket is to have Faith in the Lord to guide you to Heaven as Jesus is the only Way. People need to get ready as He will return someday soon!

  • @kylehopkins1180
    @kylehopkins1180 2 года назад +10

    The song and the civil rights movement came out of the Church. We compared our struggle for freedom to the Hebrew slaves quest for freedom from Egypt.

    @chrisa4695 2 года назад +8

    The Impressions launched the solo careers of “The Ice Man” Jerry Butler and Curtis Mayfield. Mr. Mayfield is probably more responsible than anyone for what became known as “Message Music” in the 1970’s. Bob Marley paraphrased this song in his song “One Love”.

    • @ujimajame4601
      @ujimajame4601 2 года назад +2

      Most of the early Wailers music owes a direct debt to Curtis Mayfield and The Impressions - not just "One Love." It is he who inspired Bob Marley to put a message in his music!

  • @Eowyn187

    "Gypsy Woman", "Amen", "He Will Break Your Heart", "This Is _MY_ Country"... Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions turned out classic after classic of Chicago soul.

    • @ujimajame4601
      @ujimajame4601 2 года назад

      "He Will Break Your Heart" was sung by Jerry Butler, but I'll give you a pass since Curtis was one of the writers of the song and played guitar behind Jerry on the songs he recorded at that time.

    • @deezbeats9546
      @deezbeats9546 2 года назад

  • @dagmar.6954
    @dagmar.6954 2 года назад +12

    The Impressions were an American doo-wop, gospel, soul & R&B group formed in 1958. The line up included Jerry Butler & Curtis Mayfield who ended up having great solo careers. "People Get Ready" was their biggest hit but some of their other hits were "For Your Precious Love", "Come Back My Love", "Gypsy Woman", "It's All Right", "Keep On Pushing" etc.

  • @827dusty
    @827dusty 2 года назад +2

    Their going down to the "Jordan" river (not Georgia) like in the Bible where Jesus was Baptized. This is a huge Spiritual, from maybe 150 years ago. Can't you hear the message in the lyrics? Get on that train to Salvation in Christ!
    Thanks folks

    @nozecone Год назад +2

    I'm not a 'religious' person - but it saddens me a little that two intelligent younger people like this would be so removed from their/our cultural history that they wouldn't immediately recognize this as a gospel song and get the metaphor(s) ....

    This is a historical fact: This song was the unofficial theme of the civil rights movement. Dr. King himself used this song to help calm his people and focus. This song is also about going to the kingdom of heaven.
    Jordan, not Georgia

    You may not have grown up hearing snd singing spirituals at home or at church. Possibly your parents did. This is a pretty old song that gets covered by a lot of people. Eva Cassidy did a really good cover of it. Snd the impressions did a great version here of a classic spiritual
