      There's a quote where she says being a great singer is more important to her than fame. We are so freaking lucky since sing she does and with grace and style while dazzling with her voice.

    Sensational cover tune. What range and dynamics you have Diva Morgan. Your accompanist is equally remarkable. Good reports coming on all fronts in spite of the damned endemic putting us all on hold. Not to worry though, you are the recent Aretha, Sara and Ella all in one stunning bundle. Kudos. If only you could be making hit originals like a Whitney. Or Bette, Mariah, Celine or... you choose. You’ got all that’s needed except the production and original lyricists beside you.

    OK I admit it. The recommendation came up and I clicked on it, just because it was a hot looking woman.
    Once she started singing, the whole hot woman thing got put in the backseat.
    That was three years ago. Since then, I have really learned to appreciate this woman’s varied talent.
    I’ve seen her live twice now. She is awesome.

      You can take any name and just add "channel" to it in the RUclips search bar and find their channel if they have one.
      For example:
      "Morgan James Channel"
      Or...
      ruclips.net/user/morganjamesonlinevideos?view=0&flow=grid
      Look for VIDEOS and UPLOADS (which is what the above link goes to).
      Or... go to Facebook and search for "Morgan James". The videos seem to come out there first.
      The guitar player, Doug Wamble, is her husband so they produce daily videos from their home in Manhattan.
