Jessye Norman walked through the racism, the ignorance, the nonsense of this world, with her head held high and a voice that came from the angels. She was not a great Black human being, she was a great example of the best within us, and for those who have stupid things to say about her, how sad how very sad that you can't even see the divine within us.
Mugsy Peabody classy educated and talented woman she was. She was a great example. Color has no place and in Europe she was adored. Sadly Some places in America can’t see beyond the color. Too bad for them. They are the ignorant ones so as this song says, Walk on.
Jessye Norman sings the American Dream. Against all odds, we strive for what has never been accomplished in the history of mankind. And no, Jessye Norman was revered all over the world because she was the finest female singer in the world. She was NOT a "victim" of systemic racism, but an angel singing God's purest Love.
How fortunate we were to be blessed by the sharing of jesseye’ unlimited powers of singing. She was so intelligent, and at ease I’m the courts of foreign world leaders as well as entertaining with her own family when she had a break !

One of the greatest singers of the century has to put up with people who are worried about her hair and clothes. how absolutely pathetic.! This is about music. Jessye you are a great "kick ass" singer and the world should be grateful ! Don't worry about the "arm-chair experts" !!
Brian, I couldn't agree with you more on this. The gown here is identical, if not the same, as she wore for the portrait on her album "Spirituals"... her hairstyle is different. The simplicity of the offerings can be so off putting...
Absolutely bawling my eyes out in quarantine in 2020. As many tears as I'm crying, this angel's voice brings me comfort during these hard times. I'm glad you are watching over us, Ms. Norman.
Sie war die beste Opernsängerin die wir weltweit hatten und eine liebevolle und mitfühlende Seele in Menschen-Gestalt .Ich kann mich nicht satt hören an ihrer Stimme. Sie hat auf Erden ein riesengrosses Loch hinterlassen. GOTT SEGNE SIE. 🙏🙏🌈🌟🌹🌹🌹
A big lady, in every way. Her personality shines through every performance, and she never fails to move me. Whatever she sings, she sings from her heart, and my God what a big heart it was.
I would like to know who the 22 people are, who have no taste, who gave this thumbs down! I hope they are able to achieve a tiny portion of the greatness she has. What a voice- and what a particularly moving and enchanting arrangement of one of my favorites!
A National and International treasure we can only be thankful for having known her. Her talent, beauty and personality she was "A woman for all seasons" and will be remembered as such. Who she is and what she did she did not do it just the young boys and girls in Augusta Ga but she elevated each one of us by her personality and her voice, by het talent and her genius.
Dear Jessie, though you have now joined the choir of angels, your angelic voice still blesses us in ways we don’t realize because you lived your life as a shining example of how to face obstacles and rise above them to become a role model, not just as a singer, but as a singular human being who left this world a better place than she found it. Godspeed dear Jessye, and I pray to see you and hear your beautiful and magnificent voice again! Sing on, Jessye, sing with the heavenly hosts! God bless you!
Oh ! Why am I weeping ? Jessye Noorman's bravery and her ability to sing her heart out to the audience just gives me goosebumps .. stunning beautiful lady .
It brought me to tears. Her loss and her magnificent incomparable voice. To me, she was the voice of the 20th Century. I was in the Philharmonia Chorus when she sang the role of Jocasta in Stravinsky's, Aedipus Rex with the Philharmonia Orchestra conducted by Seji Ozawa. I have never heard a voice like it. I met her after the performance and her charisma was remarkable as well. She was very gracious. I will never forget that evening. RIP Jessye.
If you cannot see the artistry at this age...the off notes was done purposely...Just shows how in touch she was with her instrument she was...amazing!RIP Queen!!
Reunited with all the world's best , she's joining Aretha Franklin, Billie Holliday, Whitney , Freddie Mercury, more names I just can't name one by one,......RIP !
Junior, oh no, the people you named are performers/singers/entertainers definitely not in the realm of Jessie Norman. Few will ever master or equal her accomplishments.
Reunited where and how? They’re ALL dead, in their graves, awaiting the second coming of Christ. If they and we are faithful and make it to heaven then perhaps we may see them again someday.
Madame, you have been a shining star in my life, bringing joy and emotion with your wonderful voice. I am eternally grateful to you for your magnificent talent and your kind heart. RIP Great Lady, thank you.
I have head and watched this amazing video 3 times. It brings me tears. Such a great artist Such an interpreter. You feel the emotions while you glory in the sound and the musicianship. BRAVA How blessed we have been to have experienced the art of this great singer.
Jessie has a voice and the ability to deliver that voice in a way that is second to no other. One could apply every superlative in the book to her, and still be stuck for words,!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a powerful and magnificent voice from a very beautiful Lady. I just listened to her sing "You'll never walk alone" (from 2002). I am sad to learn of her passing. I think she is singing in Heaven and the Angels are rejoicing. Rest in Peace Jessye Norman.
She is so magnificent. She's one of the greatest singers in the world. May God flourish Ms J. Norman with abundance blessings. I love, love, love, love her performances.
Great Goddess Almighty what a beautiful voice, that just brings you to tears, leaves you spellbound in awe. RIP Beautiful Nubian Goddess with the voice of an angel.
She was my crutch to walk me thru the swamp when in deepest dispair. Her voice, her strength helped me to go on and overcome. She was an embodiment of divine for me. RIP dear Jessye, you were from another world.
What an incredible voice. I had the privilege of seeing her Sieglinde at the Met about 30 years ago. It was wonderful, but it is her Four Last Songs that I play over and over.
I never compare spectacular talent, but you might like to check out Claramae Turner for another outstanding presentation. Both women take your breath away.
A great gift to humanity. First heard this song as a teenager. It never ceases to bring tears to my heart. Jessye Norman raises it several levels. Thank you and may God's Angels hear your voice. 🌹🌹💖💖
I don't have many regrets, but I do wish I could have seen her live. I feel like a fraud, but her voice has provided SO much joy, and I can't quite articulate why. One of a kind
Jessye Norman não cantava com a voz, somente, mas com o corpo e com a alma. Que incrível! Obrigado, Jessye, por nos agraciar com tamanho talento, lenda imortal!
She will be missed. I was a young opera singer and musical theater actor when I had the opportunity to hear one of her recitals. So versatile, her voice was angelic and powerful. She is a symbol of strength for all people. She conquered not only the glass ceiling but the racial fortress as well. She is forever an icon.

Thank you for your beautiful and heart touching comment.

I adored this remarkable woman.
Her grace will live on in our memories.

What a gift Ms. Norman is to us all....and I say "is" and not "was" as her legacy, soul, perfection will live on forever.
The most stirring version of this song ever! What a voice she had. May she rest in peace. The world lost a beautiful talent when she passed.
Listen to Mahalia Jackson’s version. I think hers is the most stirring.

A life well lived...
A talent well served.
I am heartbroken.
Can you explain the reason for this comment in a language that nobody is able to understand ? Is is\t a joke ?

@@e.conboy4286 your words are so pertinent. She had/has an impact and is timely, today.
The world wept with you.
Jessye will not walk alone! Rest in peace and love.
What a gift you were and how missed! 💖😢
One of the greatest singers of the century has to put up with people who are worried about her hair and clothes. how absolutely pathetic.! This is about music. Jessye you are a great "kick ass" singer and the world should be grateful ! Don't worry about the "arm-chair experts" !!
AMEN, AMEN!
Brian, I couldn't agree with you more on this. The gown here is identical, if not the same, as she wore for the portrait on her album "Spirituals"... her hairstyle is different. The simplicity of the offerings can be so off putting...
With you on how pathetic it is, Brian, but hopefully she's above worrying about it herself. It's us that get annoyed!
Ab Fab- why not just tax the stupid people- the stupidity tax! Start around 2 minutes--th-cam.com/video/os-CL1WylyU/w-d-xo.html
In that case 40% of Americans would be charged. Particularly but not only lately.
Rest in peace... Irreplaceable legend.
Absolutely bawling my eyes out in quarantine in 2020. As many tears as I'm crying, this angel's voice brings me comfort during these hard times. I'm glad you are watching over us, Ms. Norman.
Just think how that will make her feel knowing that she has had that effect on people long after she left.
Sie war die beste Opernsängerin die wir weltweit hatten und eine liebevolle und mitfühlende Seele in Menschen-Gestalt .Ich kann mich nicht satt hören an ihrer Stimme.
Sie hat auf Erden ein riesengrosses Loch hinterlassen.
GOTT SEGNE SIE.
🙏🙏🌈🌟🌹🌹🌹
Ja und auch weiterhin ausüben wird.
Ein Mensch, wie es in dieser immer kälteren Welt nur noch wenige gibt.
Ich vermisse sie unendlich.
🙏🙏🙏🌈🌟
She was a great talent. This is the most beautiful rendition of this song. I’ve admired her for years.
If this performance doesn't bring you to tears, you have no soul!
This performance did indeed bring tears to my eyes😢
She proved that beauty and goodness come in all sizes and colours She reminded us that when it comes to his children God is colorblind
A big lady, in every way. Her personality shines through every performance, and she never fails to move me. Whatever she sings, she sings from her heart, and my God what a big heart it was.
She was one of my favorites. I learned the news last night. I hadn't cried until I heard her sing this.
I had the same response a few moments ago, listening to "Morgen."
If there is one person I truly adore it is Jessye Norman: her voice, her passion, her absolutely divine presence.
Magnificent woman singing a beautiful song. She lived it!
I am as much impressed by the dignity she projects as I am by that glorious voice. What a treasure.
I would like to know who the 22 people are, who have no taste, who gave this thumbs down! I hope they are able to achieve a tiny portion of the greatness she has. What a voice- and what a particularly moving and enchanting arrangement of one of my favorites!
One of those voices that comes once a century. RIP, I heard Ms Norman passed away today.

Have never heard this song sung with so much feeling and emotion. Amazing voice and delivery. So sorry to lose this beautiful person.

Chills as usual, when I hear Lady Jessie Norman ❤
Oh ! Why am I weeping ? Jessye Noorman's bravery and her ability to sing her heart out to the audience just gives me goosebumps .. stunning beautiful lady .
Ms. Norman conveyed this version of the song with such power and compassion....I had goosebumps!!! Absolutely Wonderful!
It brought me to tears. Her loss and her magnificent incomparable voice. To me, she was the voice of the 20th Century.

If you didn’t have goosebumps, you must have been dead.
The best version I've ever heard.
Amazing! So much talent and dignity.
Rest in peace, power, and love. 😪
If you cannot see the artistry at this age...the off notes was done purposely...Just shows how in touch she was with her instrument she was...amazing!RIP Queen!!
Her breath control is like none other!
Not only a great voice but a great person! Long live her voice after she's gone!
How can one not be moved hearing this music.
With such irreplaceable and beyond words talent and beauty Ms. Jessye Norman should be immortal, but..... This is life!!!
When she opens her mouth, the angels are singing.
When she opens her mouth, the Angels shut up and listen.
Reunited with all the world's best , she's joining Aretha Franklin, Billie Holliday, Whitney , Freddie Mercury, more names I just can't name one by one,......RIP !

Though we've lost her, God for electronic reproduction, so we'll never lose this incredible voice and wonderful person.
Well, what could compare to this? There are no words!
The feeling she put into everything she interpreted was truly conveying! I’m sure she touched the hearts of whoever witnessed her talent in person.
She was my crutch to walk me thru the swamp when in deepest dispair. Her voice, her strength helped me to go on and overcome. She was an embodiment of divine for me. RIP dear Jessye, you were from another world.
Just brilliant. So powerful and rich and beautiful. There is simply no other singer to compare to Jessye Norman.
OMG, Jessye, you make me cry. How great you were. Rest in peace. I always will remember you.
Voice from the heavens! RIP Ms. Norman!
Rest in Power, Peace, and Beauty! You inspired the world with your amazing talent, class and grace. Thank you!
Such a gorgeous voice and presence...truly, we have lost a National Treasure!
What an incredible voice. I had the privilege of seeing her Sieglinde at the Met about 30 years ago. It was wonderful, but it is her Four Last Songs that I play over and over.
She is beyond the best! She will always be missed and loved!
RIP Maestra. Thank you for your brilliant and healing artistry.
Wow. this is, no doubt, the best "You'll never walk alone" performed by a female singer. Her voice is truly heavenly.
By a female OR a male singer.
I never compare spectacular talent, but you might like to check out Claramae Turner for another outstanding presentation. Both women take your breath away.
M P Judy Garland’s recording is phenomenal - not taking anything from Jessye Norman.
Garland’s version is wonderful.
This must be the best version of this great song. Thank you Jessye
Listen to Shirley Jones’ rendition.
A great gift to humanity. First heard this song as a teenager. It never ceases to bring tears to my heart. Jessye Norman raises it several levels. Thank you and may God's Angels hear your voice. 🌹🌹💖💖
Superbe et bravo Madame,on ne vous oubliera jamais !
