    I listened to all different versions of this amazing gospel song and it’s my personal opinion that this version sung for the movie is the best one. And I think it has to do with the BPM. This version has a more upbeat tempo and sounds modern for even today’s times. Not to discount the original version or Aretha’s version but occasionally a new version may sound better than the original. This song makes you want to clap and praise the LORD. And it’s sung by Reverend James Cleveland and the Southern California Community Choir. They sang it without the reverend and upped the tempo to give a more soulful, gospel feel to it. The studio probably didn’t want give the choir any credits as they would have had to pay many more people. And that lead singer’s voice is smooth and powerful. I’m loving it!

      How there isn't a released version of this is baffling!

      @@Abull01I searched high and low and couldn’t find any info on the lead singer of the Southern California Community Choir, which was created by Reverend James Cleveland. As this story proves, black exploitation was being perpetrated by prominent blacks on their own people. I do know that Tom Scott, one of the founding members of the Blues Brothers Band, produced the song, which is listed as the title credit song. If you have any inroads to contacting him, I’m sure he’ll have that info. I strongly believe the choir didn’t receive much, if any, compensation to perform that song in the movie m. This choir was one of the most choirs at that time and performed all over the world, including Jerusalem.

    She sounds great, however, no one can sing this song better than the late Mahalia Jackson. My spirit is full today because we're living in some very depressing and difficult times in 2022. I have to think back, How I Got Over? Praise God!!!!!🙏🙏

    This takes me back to the times my grandfather was preaching in those small baptist churches in Mississippi with the Martin Luther King, Jr fans on the old back dirt roads in the early 70s.

    So with everything we can find on the internet, we still can’t find out who “Sister Louise” (lead singer in this choir) actually is/was or where she is??? Dare I say, with all due respect, this performance is better than Aretha’s! With all due respect, of course.

    • @missayawk
      @missayawk 3 года назад +5

      Aretha is my favorite singer of ALL time ( her voice tears me up when she sings) , but just this ONE time my Aretha gotta take a back seat to THIS woman.Not just the voice, but the way she moves when she's singing.One of the most scene stealing moment in movie history.

    The imaging of the scene enhances the song but not only is this the best version it was probably one the first gospel songs to start it's popular rise we still see today.
