She was a superstar in the fifties. She made gospel and spirituals popular across several venues. She was on many TV shows when they were live. Variety shows mostly. Absolute beautiful voice.
Thank you! She was my beloved Grandpa’s favorite. He’d play her records and cry. Grandpa died in 1978. I miss him everyday, especially now. Say a prayer for New York State. 7,000 cases of COVID19, and only enough masks for 2 more weeks. In my city, the hospitals have emergency tents set up. I saw them and cried. I’m an RN, and I’ve never been this scared.
Soooooooo, I have been watching that video of Mahalia Jackson for YEARS and I have an understanding of the words; however, watching your reaction literally brought me to tears. Wow! Mahalia passed away in 1972 and her music is still blessing people! I'm so glad that you were blessed by her voice, her expression and the lyrics! Anything you decide to listen to from Mahalia would be great!
Outrageous, right? To the core of bravery and devotion. Your immediate realization of the depth, beauty and power you were hearing was awesome. May we walk through this life as well.
Mahalia was the Queen of Gospel. The greatest gospel singer. Please play more. A good song is Hold Me, Down by the Riverside. Try in the Upper Room and Move on Up a Little Higher
Oh thank you for playing this!! Mahalia is still one of my absolute favorite gospel singers. We have so many of her records and I love every one of them. They are a treasure!!! She sang from deep within her soul and it touches your very core.
so hard to find reactions to her on You Tube these days. Yours is an excellent one. Truly enjoyed it. Please react to her singing "Didn`t it Rain" live at the Newport Jazz Festival. You`ll love it!
You can find Mahalia Jackson in most library collection. Ask for available videos to. Just Google her name or look on utube. I first saw her on 1963,will never forget it
Now you've listened to Mahalia, you need to check out the other two parts to that magic triumvirate of spectacular black women singers. They are Sister Rosetta Tharp, the Queen of Blues, & Big Mama Thornton, one of Rock & Roll's early innovators........and a great harmonica player to boot!! 😲
Hi James thanks for watching, here's Big Mamma th-cam.com/video/lS6nNI_093A/w-d-xo.html and Sister Rosetta th-cam.com/video/FrIRTiKQ6fU/w-d-xo.html. All amazing singers.
The Queen of Gospel, she will forever reign. Trouble Of The World, Eye Is On the Sparrow, Closer Walk With Thee are all good songs to check out. Can't go wrong with any of her songs.
U need to listen to her sing Walk to Jerusalem and listen to the words 🙌 I'm a nursing assistant working in the hospital right now so thank you for sharing please listen to the one I suggested and I'm gonna keep on praising Him in this storm because I know who I belong to Amen
I think Aretha Franklin took over after Mahalia Jackson passed away. I have nothing but total respect for such talented women who develop that talent in such incredible way!
I am not a religious person, but her voice is powerful, amazing and brought me to tears.
I'm the same way and it brought me to tears too.
She believed every word of that song. It was sang from the heart and soul.
She is the greatest gospel singer of all time the depth,pain, emotions this woman can't be touched

My old time favorite gospel singer. Loved her in the movie "Imitation of Life."

Lol!
Must've missed them among all my other reaction videos!
Cheers Pal! 🏴😁
just wonderful
Mahalia Jackson co-wrote the song, “Lord, Don’t Move the Mountain” with her close friend, Doris Akers.
React to her singing “trouble in this world” she’s my favorite vocalist of all time
Much needed message. Thanks.
Nothing wrong with a touch of gospel in our lives.
When she lets rip you end up believing she has a direct line 'upstairs'! 😲
The Queen of Gospel, she will forever reign.
Trouble Of The World, Eye Is On the Sparrow, Closer Walk With Thee are all good songs to check out.
Can't go wrong with any of her songs.
I love you and her
Great message 🎧🤘🏼🎙
Don't mess with power!!!!!!

so a few days ago I was introduced to another gospel singer who I believe was influenced by Mahaila. Her name is Marion Williams.
I think Aretha Franklin took over after Mahalia Jackson passed away. I have nothing but total respect for such talented women who develop that talent in such incredible way!
1. Precious Lord
2. Brown Baby
3. Move on Up
I hope you react to more by her. Trouble of the World by her wow!!
You should listen and review her singing Trouble of the World.
Come On Children, Let's Sing
Holding My Saviour’s Hand
How about reacting to Elijah rocked
That flag in the back is also "black" Americans lineage as well. Respond for reference, ill expound(educate)
Along with Mahilia....you have to dig into Elvis’ gospels. And, the Wynens.
I bet you didn't know but Elvis looked up to here and stole alot of her moves and phrases
