I was there that night. This was recorded in 1991 in Detroit. I wish they had the reprise too. Marvin started it back up and made the mistake of trying to battle Karen. She let him have his fun for a second and then shut er'thing down. LOL Love her!!!
It happens alot at concerts and conventions. The Clarks are known for killing impromtu performances. Karen especially, you can always count her to bring it.
That’s where Kierra gets it from 🤣🤣 that girl never knows the words to anything. She stays reading the lyrics on her phone but she’s gonna sannnggg her butt off every time though
she has that bravery because shes the youngest and if someone say something to her her Husband, Sisters , rest of her family, and most importantly God will defend her... so shes covered
@@dejaizrobinson3858 that part! Karen couldn't touch twinkie with the growls and squalls when she(Twinkie) was in her prime. Twinkie is a force to reckon with
I have always loved that song . Have never ever heard a singer in all my life even attempt to touch this song even 30 plus years later . Singers wont even try .💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿❤️💙❤️
reading the paper while singing shows commitment. That is one characteristic of being a professional and she is willing to take on even the challenge of singing without knowing the words by heart..
This is an old hymn...you can problaby google it or find it in a Hymnal at church! She killed it...didn't she? I have this on cd...but never saw it. I don't know where these people find all of these Clark performances, but they are a blessing! Thanks for posting.
Karen is in beast mode Greatest of all time theres alot of faces in this video bb winans the late kayla parker and many more Karen the Greatest of all Time!
I have been looking for this!!!! Thanks so much for uploading! I can't find my tape of this recording LOL WOW There's nothing like growing up in Detroit. Up close and personal...watching, singing, loving and making history while the whole world had to watch from afar. Trust me! It was better in person. THANKS GOD FOR THE FAVOR OF GROWING UP IN THE CHURCH IN DETROIT!!!
i just downloaded this song on itunes... the post production is so funny. like it almost doesnt sound anything like the video. all these extra horns and bongos lol
How did the choir members keep from dying hearing this eargasmic performance done by the 1 and only KCS? Her performance just makes you want to laugh because you can't believe what you are hearing, remember they are hearing her sing this for the first time as we're we
Mrs sheard my name is holly aka thechosenone, can you put more gospel music videos on my web sites I love your music and love you too and the clark sisters my mom told me about who you are and your music I love gospel music more than seculiar music god bless
omg....my mom sung on rwf&f 3 thru 5 & i had the pleasure of singing on ff5 since i was finally old enough...lol...i was 6 years old when this came out & i can still remember it like it was yesterday...it turned into a straight up revival! & thats ALL THE WAY LIVE right there...back in the days when folk used to take the paper up with them & end up tearin the song up like they had rehearsed for weeks...aaaahhhh the good ole days...
yeah thats right. Many arts will do that if they have been picked to lead the song at the last minute. This is common at choir reharsals at convention and district meeting in many African-American Churches.
This was my favorite song from the album. I use to just play it over and over again. I tore up my walkman when it tried to eat the tape, but I rescued it and it still works. It was unfortunate that my Ron Winans family & friends II cassette didn't. I still have that cassette by the way. I'm glad that the Winans' production studio used high quality matterial for such a high quality sounding choir :-).
It would be under normal circumstances but she got the request either the night before or that day. So did her sister Dorinda the same night. I think it a testament to the talent & anointing they posses!
Now she yet ministered this song. Wow. Is that Kayla Parker behind her? And I know I also saw Yolanda Harris and Diane Campbell of Witness back there in the soprano section.
i love this vid...she killed it...............i just love old clips like this also..............sometimes i wish now was like back then............in a music way.....i mean like i like the new kind but its just something bout back than
Never forget my favorite people such a honor to be blessed to be in these great womanhood sis in christ mrs mattie most the Clark sisters angie curry love my sisters always and forever such a loving family great women teacher
ooooo i havent pulled that cd out in a min...i switched all my tapes to cd's...i call it the archives of gospel...i gotta listen to that...yeah i think mine had the outlined of women on it as well...i wish i woulda kept all them old tape covers..ima listen to that end doe an get back witcha!
I’m pressing on the upward way, New heights I’m gaining every day; Still praying as I onward bound, “Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.” Lord, lift me up, and let me stand By faith on Canaan’s tableland; A higher plane than I have found, Lord, plant my feet on higher ground. 2 My heart has no desire to stay Where doubts arise and fears dismay; Though some may dwell where these abound, My prayer, my aim, is higher ground. 3 I want to live above the world, Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled; For faith has caught the joyful sound, The song of saints on higher ground. 4 I want to scale the utmost height And catch a gleam of glory bright; But still I’ll pray till rest I’ve found, “Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”
Thank you for posting this I was wondering who sung this song as it was playing on the local radio station the other day but never announced the artist
Karen did not sing "Coming Again" That was Vickie singing that on ron Winans Family and friends 2,and she killed it! I wish someone would post that song...Vickie's range was soooo high back then and she worked that song out!
HER EAR IS REMARKABLE!!!
She was reading the lyrics and still killed it!! One of the best vocalist I ever heard
Yes! Killed it reading the lyrics!!!! My God!
Amazing! Just discover this!!
A Clark Sister trademark LMBO 🤣😂🤣😂

That’s so Karen. She lets everyone know she’s the big voice in the room and nobody can come on her territory
Was this at straight gate

The Clarks are on a different planet than everyone else. 😁😇
All of them bring it, EVERYTIME! They never miss💯💯💯
This don't make no sense of how talented this woman is! Karen is my best female vocalist! Hands down. Don't sleep!
jeremieisaiah Yess 💯
This is pure talent and discipline
This is one of the reasons why they add ”the legendary” before her name...
This lady and her gifting is so remarkable to the body of Christ!!! I love her and her family since the 80's!!!
What a VOICE!!!
Definitely!!!
I just love the Karena and Dorinda. They hardly ever know the words to a song but they always kill it anyway
Right. 😎
By the time they get familiar with the song, they kill it! ❤
@@timmy841212 look for "Leaning On Jesus" she's reading from a sheet of paper on the organ 🤣😂🤣😂

That’s where Kierra gets it from 🤣🤣 that girl never knows the words to anything. She stays reading the lyrics on her phone but she’s gonna sannnggg her butt off every time though
Karen did everything but tap dance . I've loved her since the early 80's.
that mic trick....God blessed her with so much creativity and bravery
Karen what a voice!! I don't care what female singer comes out they will not touch her vocally. God gave her and her sisters the gift to sing!
Mannn how in the world can she still have a voice after singing that song, that was ridiculous! Gurl is real good!
If they ever make a Karen Clark Sheard Life Movie, Jill scott could play as heavy karen and small 2nd chance Karen could be played by Faith Evans!
KCSALLDAY Jill Scott not that heavy no more to be heavy Karen and if she was heavy still I feel she would play Twinkie better
And Karen’s real daughter should play her heavy and then someone should slimmer should play slim karen
@@kevonnn7679 the movie is already out and Kierra did in fact play her mother
Absolutely
Kierra should always play her mother. She did an amazing job the first time.
she has that bravery because shes the youngest and if someone say something to her her Husband, Sisters , rest of her family, and most importantly God will defend her... so shes covered
Still sounds good to this day!
I love how she just decided to change the vamp @3:47 #beastmode
To take a song like this and work it the way she did is Genius…… this lady is truly a musical and Vocal Genius.
She killed this song while readin a lil folded up piece of paper... Lol... Love Karen
1:55 I had the same reaction as Marvin. I had to throw something real quick!!
So much Twinkie in her sound back then..❤
Still to this day they’re one in the same.
Never seen this before. She did her thing as per usual.
And too think this lady was reading off a paper wow
Kashawn Green yes incredible 🙀
That is what makes her the Great Artist that She is. To God Be the Glory.
RIP Michael Brooks
1:41-1:51 is the best 10 seconds I've ever heard. This lady is so blessed 😩
That moment definitely puts me in mind of vintage Aretha riffs and runs
😜😂😂🕵🏾
And it gets sooo much better! My pick is 1:00- 1:51
@@rawalton1 I Love That Moment😭😭😭
3:30 to 3:34 has me rolling!!! 🤣🤣

I Wanna Goo I Wanna Go KCS -The Best

She got that from her big sis/twin Twinkie that was her all day and Dorinda on the dos and I’s
I'm loving 2:31-2:42 it just takes me somewhere else love her singing.
I recall hearing this song before, but I didn't realize it was Karen. I knew whoever was singing wasn't playing around. LOL
Karen always killed!!!!! Choir members acting too cute!!!!!
From bishops brook’s musical ❤
0:24 - 0:28 is so intresting to my ears
Beautiful 🤩 anointed spirit. My favorite singer on the planet 🌎

I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
2
My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
3
I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.
4
I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till rest I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”
Karen favors Jill Scott a little in this video
