This scene and song does something to me, I cry every time. This is such a powerful scene, and for me it represents the fact that God has the final say. You can do whatever you want or feel however you want in life, but God has the final say. Despite her father's ill feelings toward Shug all those years, when God spoke to him in that moment, he had no choice but to surrender. When she said, "See daddy, sinners have soul too," omg that just breaks me down every time.
I know they don't explicitly say it but I think the choir soloist is Shug' s daughter. This scene is probably the best of the movie safe Celie's and Nettie's reunion
If you aren't crying when you watch this, you don't have a soul. Whether you believe or not, this touches something inside you. I love this scene because I have the same reaction every time I see it. We all want to reconcile with the people we love no matter what we/they have done and no matter how long we/they've been angry. Life is too short to let petty differences keep those we love away. Stop wasting time. Call someone you love, show them this and have a good happy cry together. :)
i love this song i could listen to it all day and all night you can realy feel this song when you listen to it because this is what people need in the world right now (he will speak to you if you need him just pray to him and he will answer your prayers)
This scene always makes me cry. Her family writes her off due to her lifestyle, but she shows back up doubling the congregation, and the phrase, "See, Daddy? Sinners have soul, too." She and her daddy were more alike than they thought, and there they are together, leading everyone home.
@justliketeflon this is one of my favorites as well, but I would have to say the part when Cellie and Nettie were seperated by Mister..now that killed me! I remember seeing it in the theater and there wasnt a dry eye in the house.
Personally I think the girl in the Choir is Daddy’s “good girl” NOT Shug’s daughter, but the but about her that touched me is when she (the choir singer just sort of went “I so do NOT have anything on my sister’s voice” and then just sang along
This movie is the BEST movie EVER made. It gets me by my throat every single time. It gives me hope....that there is good in most people.....even in mister..... Thank you Steven Spielberg for this precious jewel :-)
i've heard of few different stories about her voice in this scene. i 1st heard it was margaret avery: the actress who played shug avery. then i heard that the voice was dubbed with the magnificent singing voice of shirley caesar. if i find out 4 sure, i'll let u know!!!

that one line is the most powerful line in the movie. "See daddy? Sinners have souls too." this movie is a classic.

One of my favorite scenes in the movie!😎
I replay the part were her dad hugs back and she cries.....thats my number1 favorite part in the movie
Shug’s face when he finally hugs her back gets me every time.
THIS. NEVER. GETS. OLD. AT. ALL. Somebody needs to hear this right now...
This is my favourite part of the movie. Praise God!
🥰🥰🥰

I wondered about that…or maybe sister?
@@kerrijohnstone7588 Shug did mention that her kids were with her parents. When she was drunk and delirious: " Children gots to have a pa'"

I think the girl in the choir is Shug's daughter.
Shug had 3 children with Albert
Impossible to be indifferent to Shug's reaction when her father embraces her. Beautiful scene and movie.
i love this song i could listen to it all day and all night you can realy feel this song when you listen to it because this is what people need in the world right now (he will speak to you if you need him just pray to him and he will answer your prayers)
Sends chills over me!!! PRAISE GOD.

Thank you Margaret Avery, you are extraordinary.
No kidding. EVERYTIME... the actual movie or just the RUclips video... I'm tearing up.
@emgodhth Its actually Tata Vega who did the singing parts for Shug Avery.
When Shug sings .... "Well maybe Godddd's . .trying to tell . .you something...." that's when I feel the chills
Nunca me canso de esta película, esa escena siempre me pone sensible

Too beautiful for words

How sweet! Thanks so much for posting this for all of us to enjoy! The movie was just wonderful, wasn't it?

Very powerful scene. The best movie scene in our history. (African Americans)
This is one of my favorite scenes from the movie...and Lillie is finally home.
love this part...you CAN go home!!!
this symbolic of her leadin the sinners to Christ
Even Mr. was feeling the spirit inspire of his evil ways!!!
@justliketeflon this is one of my favorites as well, but I would have to say the part when Cellie and Nettie were seperated by Mister..now that killed me! I remember seeing it in the theater and there wasnt a dry eye in the house.
I'm so glad I didn't see this in the theater!
enjoyed this. This was my fav part of the movie. a very good movie. gives me chills.
Damn this gets me every single time...
is the lady that plays shug avery really singing this part? her voice gives me chills.
The greatest movie scene in our history. (African American)
0 dislikes. Damn straight.
The house mix is amazing
John Patton Jr. (2-18-30 to 4-18-05) Bay area lyric tenor played Shug Avery's father. (Google)
I agree about the chills; don't forget the goose bumps!
Personally I think the girl in the Choir is Daddy’s “good girl” NOT Shug’s daughter, but the but about her that touched me is when she (the choir singer just sort of went “I so do NOT have anything on my sister’s voice” and then just sang along

This is one of my favorite parts. Speak lord, speak to me.
Why am I crying right now??
Best scene 💯💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯
I cry EVERYTIME I see this scene.
I wasn't prepared to randomly stumble upon this scene and cry today!
Tata Vega BODIED these vocals.
When she sings to audiences, even today, she gets disbelief.
I didn't cry, but I did indeed feel that touch. I rarely cry for anything, but that doesn't mean I can't feel.
that sure is an amazing song, nearly made me cry!
I really had no idea what was going on, but it was heart touching.
Crying every time
this part of the movie reminds me of my home church
Love this scene

i've heard of few different stories about her voice in this scene. i 1st heard it was margaret avery: the actress who played shug avery. then i heard that the voice was dubbed with the magnificent singing voice of shirley caesar. if i find out 4 sure, i'll let u know!!!
Well ????
TATA VEGA IS THE VOICE OF SHUG AVERY
God is Undefeated!
@emgodhth It's not shirley, it's actually margaret avery...:-)
That isn't Lauryn Hill...It was Maria Howell (check on IMDB).
The lord has spoken xx
The real voice is Tata Vega
Altho i love Margret Avery in this Movie
@pantherandme you said the truth!
@Equus2011 No It's Tata Vega.
