I was raised Catholic and although my personal experiences with the church and organized religion in general has led me to my own beliefs and spirituality, I still find a bit of comfort and joy in hearing these songs.
I'm so sorry if you had any bad experiences with Christianity. You may not want to hear it, or you may not believe in it anymore, but I believe that Jesus loves you. (I'm not trying to push my religion on anyone, so sorry if that makes you uncomfortable HAHA) You may not be christian anymore, and thats ok! I just hope that you're ok now and are happy.
The best part of this bit is that they don't try to dress up the nuns' singing voices. They all sing like they would in a normal choir and it's terribly endearing.
Maggie Smith can convey more in a single look than most actresses can in an entire scene! You just KNOW from her expression that there's going to be an explosion later!
I love how into it Deloris (Whoopi Goldberg's character) gets as the song progresses. This is a woman who's been struggling every day, feeling out of place and miserable in this convent. Now she's not only found something she can do well, she's clearly having the time of her life leading this choir.
Well, she was a singer - she might thought, that the religious songs wasn't really her style, but in fact it was really close to her, in the moment she tried in a more gospel-like way. After all, the gospel was the way how the firstly converted African people see the Christianity - "God loves us, which makes us happy, and we let the entire world know about it". Of course you can feel it in their songs as well. The head nun might be disapproved it first, as it wasn't the "traditional" way to sing them, but in fact, it was the traditional way to do for Deloris (even if she didn't realised). Also, they still had the proper message, it was only in a way, which stuck more in the people's ears.
26 years later, and this scene still moves me. I'm a practicing Roman Catholic and part of my church choir, and this scene features one of the best versions of any hymn from beginning (slower, reverent, devout) to end (energetic, joyful, bursting at the seams). It makes my soul soar; it's such an incredible way to pray to and honor our Blessed Mother. After all, "he who sings prays twice." Amen!

Mary Robert's singing voice may not be Wendy Makkena's own voice (she's dubbed), but damn, Wendy really sells the euphoria of being able to come out of her shell and break free of her timidness with that adorable, excited look on her face...
30 years later and this still kills. My favorite part is when the two nuns side-eye each other after realizing -- this is actually good! I also appreciate it isn't overproduced like a movie today might do. It has a simplicity to it that makes Sister Act such a timeless film.

This is master class in story telling. The choir nailed the slow version of the song - it showed that they were still very talented and dedicated, and still very comfortable in the "old ways" of the world. However, things get much more complex with the fast-paced part (an analogy for the convents' need to change with the times in order to save not only their congregation but also the downtrodden city around them). You can see that older nuns are somewhere between unsure and anxious when the fast part begins, and by the end they have gained confidence, even if some of them couldn't quite get the beat down with their clapping (some even have looks of disbelief by the end - perhaps an allegory of faith vs doubt?). It was charming and also realistic, as they were not quite yet all together. Mary Clarence gives a motherly wink of assurance at 1:17 as to say "yall got this!" The nod of approval from Mary Lazarus to Mary Clarence at 2:01 lets us know that she is fully behind her new choir leader now, and that any resentment between the two has been settled; and by 2:33 Mary Lazarus is excited for her second solo, perhaps re-energizing her lost passion for music. At 2:10, we see a very nervous Mary Roberts begin to show off her talent, as the other choir members look on in genuine shock that she's got that voice. This confidence will grow throughout the movie. And we see Mary Patrick in her own world just belting out the big notes, never showing any shyness at all! Then we see some very rough characters outside who certainly had never been inside the church slowly get drawn in, with the Monsignor encouraging them to stay despite their rough looks. And by the end of the song even the once-bored altar servers - only there probably because their parents made them - were engaged and smiling. As applause erupts, we are ready for the second half of the movie, as the story will shift away from a basic witness protection comedy into a much deeper story of life and second chances. Without this scene, the sisters do not become renewed and re-establish their mission of serving an impoverished and forgotten neighborhood. Without this scene, Mother Superior has no protagonist in Mary Clarence to help her get out of her staid ways of thinking. And without this scene, we cannot see a changing of heart and ultimately a renewed sense of purpose in Dolores' life. PS - Maggie Smith is a legend. She conveys sooo much in this scene without ever opening her mouth.
Jesus man, this movie reminds me of my childhood, I know the songs from memory, but your comment made me appreciate the scene -and the movie as a whole- in a different way, what with me being an adult now and knowing more about things.
And yet, it is an undeniable fact that trying ‘to be hip/trendy,’ and ‘get with the times’ has resulted in the decimation of women’s vocations. The nuns’ religious orders dropped like a stone as a result of adopting this attitude. It doesn’t attract young people as the movie would have one believe. It’s a complete con job. The religious orders of nuns that are flourishing are those that would never sing the worldly irreverent segment of the hymn. It’s really ‘hymnicide.’ It’s not about “honoring” the Blessed Mother, It’s about self-indulgence …. feeeeeeling good.” Mass attendance in Catholic churches that embraced this self-indulgent ‘worship’ has declined greatly. The traditional Catholic societies are growing with great rapidity. They are the ones attracting young families. Sadly Sister Act was a joke perpetrated on millions of unsuspecting people who know little to nothing of the richness of the contemplative life.
Of note, the portrayal of Sister Mary Roberts gaining more confidence in this piece is incredibly spot on. After her first solo (when she lights up), her body language is still very rigid compared to the other nuns, who are more relaxed and grooving along (sister Mary Patrick especially). She knows she can sing, but she still has to learn how to relax and enjoy herself and that's something which takes time. Full credit to the actress here for pulling this off so well.
@@stephendavidbailey2743 i will pray for you with all my heart. Jesus loves, he loves, he loves. If there is destruction is because of our sins, not because religion.

@@mysterio952 I mean you say "may god have mercy on your soul", because the person was not catholic. What do you think of the ancient Roman state religion (the one that ruled in the Roman empire before Christianity replaced it)?
For anyone wondering, the Latin lines in the upbeat version are from the hymn, "O Sanctissima" and the "Sanctus". The real tune of the first is "Sicilian Mariners' Hymn", and is played at Christmas as "O du fröliche". The second one is sung at every Mass, in Latin or the vernacular, before the Consecration. This is what they mean: "Mater amata, intermerata" ("Mother beloved, undefiled") "Sanctus, Sanctus Dominus!" ("Holy, Holy Lord!") "Virgo, respice; Mater, aspice" ("Virgin, consider us; Mother, look at us")

I always tear up at Sister Mary Robert's parts. You can see how even just in this short clip she went from being nervous to confident and happy, and it's not just the fact that she's good at something, it's the fact that she feels she has a place now, she can use her talents to contribute in her church, and can connect more closely to God. All things she clearly wanted/needed fulfilled through music, it's so beautiful.

Thank you for writing all the words to this definitely beautiful holy hymn. I have auditory processing problems. If you aren't familiar, it takes longer for words ( in this case a fast moving song ) to reach my brain and then be processed. By the time processing happens, I am probably behind . Using close captioning on TV has helped me understand words to songs when I was growing up! Now that you supplied the words, I can sing the song all I want. Merry Christmas and bless you for your kind gesture! 🎄🎄🎁🎁🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🎶🎵🎤🎼
@@Thunda1986 Cherubim (pl.) and Seraphin (pl.) are (high ranking) angels with different tasks.They are mentioned in the Bible, e.g. books of Moses, Esekiel....
You show the typical Catholic deluded mindset which proves Catholicism is counterfeit Christianity. So get it straight: The song was in NO WAY making a joyful noise to the Lord, oh thou fool. Moreover, it is totally unbiblical to the MAX. So go ahead and serve your mary idol. You will receive nothing but a passport to hell on Judgment Day.
@@דדוִ-ק4ע It is astonishing that you can even ask the question. Do I really have to spell it out?????? Are you that dense? The song is directed to MARIA MARVELOUS and NOT to the LORD, so it was not a song that "makes a joyful noise unto the Lord".
Same! My grandma took me and my sister to see this. She's since passed and my sister and I just showed this to my 7 year old nephew and he loves the music so much.
I'm not religious but I really like this movie, both for its music and the positive vibes. This is what religion should be all about, giving you a reason to celebrate life and the people around you, teaching communal values like going into your community and just reaching out, and spreading hopeful messages to make people's difficult lives just a bit better. This movie nails it.
@Planet Sidewinder: React Unfortunately they cut part of Hail Holy Queen, the piano playing where the street kids hear the music, and start walking towards the church. Pisses me off ~_~
I saw this on VHS as a kid, and this song remains one of my favourites. Part of what made it so memorable is the sort-of "underdog" storyline, where a struggling parish in the inner-city just needs to find the right people to bring itself back on-track, even to the point where the Pope visits for Sunday worship.
It reminds me of the parable of The King's Feast...the king had a great feast prepared for all his rich,noble friends...a huge spread was laid out for them,lots of delicious,succulent foods,and the best wines. Nobody showed up. So he told his servants to go out into the allies and by roads to invite the poor,the deaf,sck,blind,and mute,and soon his halls were filled with the grateful.

I am no longer a practicing Catholic, but after hearing this version it was always so hard to go back to church and sing this so sloooowly. all about reverence still, but I think this version is much better and I think the Blessed Mother would still approve. It's praising and fun!!
+Smokey Schaefer I guess you've never been in a church that has praise dancing. Tell that to members of an AME church or to Native Americans. One's thinking that church has to be so dull and boring is one of the many reasons why people have left it
STILL love THIS SHOW. Yes i'm a muslim boy at the time but my entire family watched and hahaha we enjoyed the song and the plot. It was SOOOOO hilarious. Sister act one and two is a legend and pity they didn't do a sister act 3. They should........... the entire cast were sooooooo soooo good.
After all these years, i had quit my job this morning and took a very long nap and had this song randomly pop in my head. It made my day and brought back really good child memories. I believe god is telling me it’s going to be alright 🥲
best moment when non church goers start streaming in the church...Just like Jesus said he doidn't come for the righteous but for the sinners to go back to him.
I found out why this is. Andrea Robinson is the singer who sang for the part of Sister Mary Roberts (The young redhead nun) released an album in Japan. www.midnitetease.com/serendipity/archives/340-Missed-Voices...Andrea-Robinson.html "Robinson also recorded a single and b-side for Mazda in Japan in 1987..." Here is one of her songs... ruclips.net/video/WuVUu1uow8E/видео.html
Sister Mary Robert(the nun with red hair) played by Wendy Makkena whenever her character sings her part it's so moving it gives me that feeling in her chest you get when you can feel what someone is singing. I think it also has to do with not expecting a voice so powerful to come from someone so shy looking. :)
It’s not her singing but her lip syncing is amazing. No matter how many times I watch and focus on her she just doesn’t miss a beat or expression or anything.
It’s movies like this that made my childhood so special. Thanks to my parents for buying this vhs, this movie and part 2 will always have special place in my heart.
Reverend Mother’s facial expressions were classic. I don’t think she could’ve done better has she tried. The shocked “what’d you just say”...to pure delight...to “I can’t wait to verbally whip your butt.”
My family knows as I’ve been telling them for a decade now, I want a black choir to sing at my funeral. I just think it will bring such joy to everyone!
I can't believe they let choirs sing Hallelujah by Cohen (a song I deeply dislike) and not rearranged classical Christian hymns. But knowing the men wrapped in certain clergy clothes, that doesn't surprise me at all.
This was my earliest exposure to worship music, and what an early introduction. Worshiping the lord should always be fun. It definitely brings me closer to him.
One of my childhood movies. Because of this movie and Whoopi, I joined my schools choir from 7th grade until my senior year of high school. I'm 34 years old, and I'll still watch this movie when I get a chance. A timeless classic.
I remember when this movie came out WAYYY back in the day, I was about 11 years old. I still remember people raving about the nuns singing and all, and the word of mouth that spread. It was a fun time to remember.
My mother was originally from Russia and she and my father only listened to classical music. One day, she saw this movie in HBO and she was so simply perplexed and hypnotized with the subject and specially with Whoopi Goldberg's role and acting that she ordered the DVD the following day. I remember her watching this movie with her and my father, time and again (!) and laughing to the point of tears in their eyes. They are both gone now, but I still remember those evenings with them.

Love her!
30 years later and this still kills. My favorite part is when the two nuns side-eye each other after realizing -- this is actually good! I also appreciate it isn't overproduced like a movie today might do. It has a simplicity to it that makes Sister Act such a timeless film.
Yes! Just simple, old fashioned feel good filmmaking!

@@LucyLovettLestrange I actually think she didn't age much between 'Hook' and the Harry Potter movies. Kinda like Patrick Stewart, watch the trailer of the new Star Trek series and you see he aged far more gracefully than his other Trek TNG cast members.

This is master class in story telling. The choir nailed the slow version of the song - it showed that they were still very talented and dedicated, and still very comfortable in the "old ways" of the world. However, things get much more complex with the fast-paced part (an analogy for the convents' need to change with the times in order to save not only their congregation but also the downtrodden city around them).
You can see that older nuns are somewhere between unsure and anxious when the fast part begins, and by the end they have gained confidence, even if some of them couldn't quite get the beat down with their clapping (some even have looks of disbelief by the end - perhaps an allegory of faith vs doubt?). It was charming and also realistic, as they were not quite yet all together.
Mary Clarence gives a motherly wink of assurance at 1:17 as to say "yall got this!"
The nod of approval from Mary Lazarus to Mary Clarence at 2:01 lets us know that she is fully behind her new choir leader now, and that any resentment between the two has been settled; and by 2:33 Mary Lazarus is excited for her second solo, perhaps re-energizing her lost passion for music.
At 2:10, we see a very nervous Mary Roberts begin to show off her talent, as the other choir members look on in genuine shock that she's got that voice. This confidence will grow throughout the movie. And we see Mary Patrick in her own world just belting out the big notes, never showing any shyness at all!
Then we see some very rough characters outside who certainly had never been inside the church slowly get drawn in, with the Monsignor encouraging them to stay despite their rough looks. And by the end of the song even the once-bored altar servers - only there probably because their parents made them - were engaged and smiling.
As applause erupts, we are ready for the second half of the movie, as the story will shift away from a basic witness protection comedy into a much deeper story of life and second chances. Without this scene, the sisters do not become renewed and re-establish their mission of serving an impoverished and forgotten neighborhood. Without this scene, Mother Superior has no protagonist in Mary Clarence to help her get out of her staid ways of thinking. And without this scene, we cannot see a changing of heart and ultimately a renewed sense of purpose in Dolores' life.
PS - Maggie Smith is a legend. She conveys sooo much in this scene without ever opening her mouth.
Jesus man, this movie reminds me of my childhood, I know the songs from memory, but your comment made me appreciate the scene -and the movie as a whole- in a different way, what with me being an adult now and knowing more about things.
And yet, it is an undeniable fact that trying ‘to be hip/trendy,’ and ‘get with the times’ has resulted in the decimation of women’s vocations. The nuns’ religious orders dropped like a stone as a result of adopting this attitude. It doesn’t attract young people as the movie would have one believe. It’s a complete con job.
The religious orders of nuns that are flourishing are those that would never sing the worldly irreverent segment of the hymn. It’s really ‘hymnicide.’ It’s not about “honoring” the Blessed Mother, It’s about self-indulgence …. feeeeeeling good.” Mass attendance in Catholic churches that embraced this self-indulgent ‘worship’ has declined greatly. The traditional Catholic societies are growing with great rapidity. They are the ones attracting young families. Sadly Sister Act was a joke perpetrated on millions of unsuspecting people who know little to nothing of the richness of the contemplative life.
@@chisenefregaormai8665lol
@@chisenefregaormai8665stop whining the song has done more for the church, than you praying for your entire life babbling nonsense will ever do.
Of note, the portrayal of Sister Mary Roberts gaining more confidence in this piece is incredibly spot on. After her first solo (when she lights up), her body language is still very rigid compared to the other nuns, who are more relaxed and grooving along (sister Mary Patrick especially). She knows she can sing, but she still has to learn how to relax and enjoy herself and that's something which takes time. Full credit to the actress here for pulling this off so well.

For anyone wondering, the Latin lines in the upbeat version are from the hymn, "O Sanctissima" and the "Sanctus". The real tune of the first is "Sicilian Mariners' Hymn", and is played at Christmas as "O du fröliche". The second one is sung at every Mass, in Latin or the vernacular, before the Consecration. This is what they mean:
"Mater amata, intermerata" ("Mother beloved, undefiled")
"Sanctus, Sanctus Dominus!" ("Holy, Holy Lord!")
"Virgo, respice; Mater, aspice" ("Virgin, consider us; Mother, look at us")

I always tear up at Sister Mary Robert's parts. You can see how even just in this short clip she went from being nervous to confident and happy, and it's not just the fact that she's good at something, it's the fact that she feels she has a place now, she can use her talents to contribute in her church, and can connect more closely to God. All things she clearly wanted/needed fulfilled through music, it's so beautiful.

Thank you for writing all the words to this definitely beautiful holy hymn. I have auditory processing problems. If you aren't familiar, it takes longer for words ( in this case a fast moving song ) to reach my brain and then be processed. By the time processing happens, I am probably behind . Using close captioning on TV has helped me understand words to songs when I was growing up! Now that you supplied the words, I can sing the song all I want.

I've bet she still dancing to the song when you play it up in heaven somewhere
Your Grandma had great taste - it's a truly wonderful and inspiring movie.
I'm not religious but I really like this movie, both for its music and the positive vibes. This is what religion should be all about, giving you a reason to celebrate life and the people around you, teaching communal values like going into your community and just reaching out, and spreading hopeful messages to make people's difficult lives just a bit better. This movie nails it.

I saw this on VHS as a kid, and this song remains one of my favourites. Part of what made it so memorable is the sort-of "underdog" storyline, where a struggling parish in the inner-city just needs to find the right people to bring itself back on-track, even to the point where the Pope visits for Sunday worship.

Sister Mary Robert(the nun with red hair) played by Wendy Makkena whenever her character sings her part it's so moving it gives me that feeling in her chest you get when you can feel what someone is singing. I think it also has to do with not expecting a voice so powerful to come from someone so shy looking. :)

she is like me when I first joined the choir. I was shy at first but my grandma told the pastor I was really good

It’s not her singing but her lip syncing is amazing. No matter how many times I watch and focus on her she just doesn’t miss a beat or expression or anything.
@@cili7 You are correct Chris and she has sang in Disney animation like The Little Mermaid (Ariel).
It’s movies like this that made my childhood so special. Thanks to my parents for buying this vhs, this movie and part 2 will always have special place in my heart.
音楽の科目取ると必ずと言っていいほど、鑑賞する素晴らしい作品
個人的に神作品だと思ってる
Reverend Mother’s facial expressions were classic. I don’t think she could’ve done better has she tried. The shocked “what’d you just say”...to pure delight...to “I can’t wait to verbally whip your butt.”
Absolutely love Sister Act, it never fails to cheer me up.
My family knows as I’ve been telling them for a decade now, I want a black choir to sing at my funeral. I just think it will bring such joy to everyone!
本当大好き
どのシーンも好きだけど
男の子2人がリズム取りながら顔見合わせるところ可愛くて好き

My favorite movie ever. And I still laugh and laugh and laugh every time. Love Whoopie.❤
If your soul doesn’t get lifted when listening to this song.....you’re cold.
This song never gets old. And church would not suck so much if they had music like this!
I can't believe they let choirs sing Hallelujah by Cohen (a song I deeply dislike) and not rearranged classical Christian hymns. But knowing the men wrapped in certain clergy clothes, that doesn't surprise me at all.
英語はわからんですけど、聞いてたら涙が出てきた！なぜかな？訴える何かが、それとも、音楽は国を超越しています！ありがとう！
天使にラブソングを！という映画を観てください♡その中の１曲ですが、最高ですよ！
天使にラブソングを2もおすすめです(>
最後の、最初に声小さかった女の人が「私ってこんなに声出せたんだ！」って感じで驚いてるの可愛い…！
最初は下手だった聖歌隊が、ここまで成長するのって感動しますよね！途中でリズムががらっと変わるのも好き…！
This was my earliest exposure to worship music, and what an early introduction. Worshiping the lord should always be fun. It definitely brings me closer to him.

There's this little monastry near my home, and i always hears them sing this song like every day.. and it was really beautiful..💚 love them..
Manhaten songstranfair
Mmm
I wish they'd bring music like this back!!! Forget that it's Gospel music, although I certainly appreciate that too; this is EXCELLENT
One of my childhood movies. Because of this movie and Whoopi, I joined my schools choir from 7th grade until my senior year of high school.
I'm 34 years old, and I'll still watch this movie when I get a chance.
A timeless classic.
再試っていーな♪で知ったけど
普通にいい曲よねこれ
皆さんの表情がほんとに好き
This song never fails to put me in a good mood
Agreed and since I am Catholic I find it beautiful and very spiritual just like these movies
I remember when this movie came out WAYYY back in the day, I was about 11 years old. I still remember people raving about the nuns singing and all, and the word of mouth that spread. It was a fun time to remember.
Hands down my favorite song in the whole movie. The exuberance brings tears of joy to my eyes every time and I'm not even Catholic!
I invite you to become catholic
This takes me right back to my childhood. Every. Single. TIME.
