She knows the actual craft of music. She works at it and there are no electronic aids. This is pure talent and work. She's an actual artist who works on her craft. Pop music today is commercial electronic junk. She's the very opposite of that.
Give me five!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The first time I heard her, I was on my way to SA, on the plane. When I heard call my name, I was amused. I tried to know more about her, but there were nothing about her work.... She is the bomb!!!!!!!!
A great hidden talent!!! This lady can blowwwww!!! And she was brave enough to take in an Aretha Franklin hit and kill it!!! She even held that high note that Ms. Franklin's background repeats throughout this haunting classic.
I love this woman, Such a roller coaster of emotions when she sings. I wish I could see her on the voice just to see the reactions of the judges and to watch her launch into superstardom so she could bring this amazing talent and this genre back to the world. It need to hear more soul again instead of most of the nonsense we are forced to ingest. Morgan is pure soul and I always need more.
I saw her for the first time last night, she is a dynamic singer and performer. One would wonder why she doesn't get any airtime, she's a well kept secret.
From the 4:04 to the 4:45 mark it took my breath away and the emotion she delivered tore into my heart ! Not sure I can say any singer has ever had this gift! Love this lady!
Crickets chirping on a hot summer night are beautiful. Morgan came back up after an encore to appease the crowd even more. Her voice sounded just as fresh as when she started. Then you get a pitch perfect 2nd encore. Even the crickets quiet down and listen to the song she ended the night with. Hell, the crickets in my apartment are quieting down for this one on the computer speakers. I look forward to the day I can hear Morgan James in person. I might even just cage up one of my crickets for the pleasure to come along.
Yes ,you finally got it. Listen to the church song she does, Take me to church,". Prince's song"Call my name" Prince was so impressed by her he gave her his song to record
Spectacular rendition of a very difficult piece of music. That's where Miss James' training comes in. She graduated an opera singer from Juliard. Impeccable training, incredible soul, and the voice of an angel
I spoke with her husband after they performed in a small venue in Omaha a year or so ago about why she never showed up on American Idol. He sincerely said that Simon offered her a guaranteed "final 4" slot in exchange for signing a long term record deal with his outfit. She declined, wanting to not give up control of her creativity. Although this goes to the phoniness of these singer shows, I applaud her for staying true to her dream of making it as an independent artist. She reminds me so much of Eva Cassidy, both in vocal quality and the fact that Eva's record co. president wanted to pidgeon-hole her into just one genre of music when she sang everything exquisitely. Eva never made the big time as a result and her record co. president said it was the biggest mistake of his professional carer. Eva died of cancer in 1996 at age 34 and in my mind was the right up there with the best of the of the 20th century singers. I truly believe Morgan is on track to be at the top of that list for the 21st century. Let's all support her through her Patreon account and attending her performances. Godspeed Morgan!!!
@@maxwellhouse4267 I absolutely LOVE Morgan. This cover is one of my favorites. Four times now, I've driven 250 miles one way to Minneapolis to see her perform live. And as of this post, I will be going again for a fifth time in a few weeks. I try to learn everything I can about Morgan and this is the first time I've heard about Amer. Idol and Simon. Knowing her like I do, I can absolutely see her turning down a contract. Early on in her career, she was so excited when she signed on at Epic. But that turned sour in short time. In an interview she says the checkbook that comes with signing a contract is great but that comes with a cost. She wants to do her music and she wants to do it her way, and most importantly, she wants to retain all the rights to her music. And I respect her so much for that. You know she's doing it for the love of the art, not the money. And it shows.
I love her, she's as good as The Best , I look for her cd/ dvd and nobody knows who she is ! I don't understand it and they don't know what they are missing
Es una intérprete autoexigente, perfeccionista, pero humilde. Es inigualable, incomparable... En fin, no me quedan palabras para describir su virtuosismo. Maravillosa, Morgan.
Simply amazing!!!!! Morgan sang the shit out of that song!!! I'm sure Aretha would be proud.... She is truly blessed with an amazing talent!!! I would like to see her do something with Alicia Keys. I also fell in love with her John Mayer cover.
+iriska2kiss Hmm she's VERY good and is a classically trained vocalist after all, but not sure it's fair to compare her vocals to Aretha who is arguably one of the greatest pop/soul/R&B vocalists of all time (from a technical standpoint) as both are extremely capable.
She's simply amazing...
The Lovliest voice in music right now.
Imagine going from Idaho to Harlem and still being among the coolest vocalists to ever exist. What an immense talent.
Her Juilliard diploma is shining with flying colors!
Ain't no way you won't fall in love with Morgan James!
I mean no disrespect to any other singer but , in my opinion, this young lady is on a level all by herself.
Lord have mercy. This girl has got some pipes.
Absolutely astounding. Easily one of the best singers of our time!
Most sexiest woman alive behind my feonce!!
I would have made a comment, but was blown away 💨
U SANG THAT SONG GIRL!!!! WOW!!!!
She knows the actual craft of music. She works at it and there are no electronic aids. This is pure talent and work. She's an actual artist who works on her craft. Pop music today is commercial electronic junk. She's the very opposite of that.
Morgan James studied opera at Julliard. Nobody can figure out where she keeps that third lung.
One of the few things we can thank modern pop 'musak' for, making artists like Morgan and PMJ so necessary.
I’m sure Ms. Franklin would’ve loved this!
Lady Morgan James is truly beautiful beyond belief with the enchanting smile and ethereal soul and voice of an Angel!😍😘
Wow. This woman "gets" this song and this music. Thank you for posting this.
Stunningly beautiful and incredibly talented. God truly blessed this lovely lady. Possibly the best voice on this planet.
I am so blown away right now! That sustained note in the second verse...I think I died! Wow!
What!!!! This woman should be all over the air waves.....what a talent...and gorgeous!
Give me five!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The first time I heard her, I was on my way to SA, on the plane. When I heard call my name, I was amused. I tried to know more about her, but there were nothing about her work.... She is the bomb!!!!!!!!
Check her youtube doing "Wake up Sally" !
?? Wake up sally?? do you mean Lay down Sally?
LOL!!!....sure do-must of been in another "time zone"...
so true she is happening
It's definitely one of those "I wish I had been there" gigs. What a voice.
Aretha would be proud. The quality of her sustain is amazing.
A great hidden talent!!! This lady can blowwwww!!! And she was brave enough to take in an Aretha Franklin hit and kill it!!! She even held that high note that Ms. Franklin's background repeats throughout this haunting classic.
Nicole Waite It’s an obligato by Miss #CissyHouston alone on #Arethas famous recording. #AintNoWay ✔️🎼
Ms. Franklins’s sister wrote and did background to this song.
Wonderful rendition of a wonderful song. She did Aretha proud.

This girl is the whole package. I hope fame doesn't ruin her like it has so many others.
I saw her for the first time last night, she is a dynamic singer and performer. One would wonder why she doesn't get any airtime, she's a well kept secret.
Maybe if she wrote some good originals she'd blow up.
Yah she is coming up the mountain want to hear some Etta James covers like At Last
she did a amazing job honoring the Queen of Soul.
She's the best - glad I'm alive to experience her rising star.
Yo, this is CRAZY, I'm just discovering this Lady? Props to TH-cam and this loader. AMAZING SINGER!!! THIS BEAUTY IS A BEAST 🔥 ON THE MIC
O.M.G. This is my new favorite. Great job. Just killed it.
Sing baby sing. The world will eventually hear you.

Absolutely superb!!! 🎵🎤🥰👍
Man she SANG the shit out of that song even the Queen Aretha would have had goosebumps #YouGoGirl
From the 4:04 to the 4:45 mark it took my breath away and the emotion she delivered tore into my heart ! Not sure I can say any singer has ever had this gift! Love this lady!
I agree 100%.
Best cover!!!!
she gives me chills, sing it baby!,She's wonderful unbeleivable,amazing!

I can appreciate all the hours of work gone in to developing such an angelic voice

She should come with a warning label! Great voice and soul.
Wow. Wow. Wow. What else can I say about this cover? Awesome vocals you did there, morgan.

Brings tears to the eyes
Wow, in my book she just won all of the singing shows on TV hands down! Man she can sing her soul off!
