Thank you to all the MJ Patrons on Patreon who are supporting our music videos. We literally could not do it without you.
A special thank you to Tony Pereira, Brendan Iribe, Umur Akbay, Leon Koenck, David Silov, Chuck Cubbins, and Pierce Hacking for your very generous support!
She sings through her feet, arms, chest, soul, heart, lungs and vocal cords. Just everything!
YES!
And she hits all of it right on the nail head!! Wow!
@@jvtay999 yes, she sure does. We all know she is educated or trained in all things music but she was born with something, a gift that can’t be paid for.
She does a lot of Broadway, I understand. I bet she stops the show every time she steps on stage.
@@ty9884 I imagine she does too
Never in my life did I ever imagine anyone singing this song as well as Aretha. What a gift you are to this world, Morgan. Thank you for sharing it with the rest of us.
Very gifted. Oh me ohh my
Don't know if you're familiar with the original recording by Lulu. You might enjoy it also.

I fucking hate this women. Bullshit over singing
yes
As an old guy, I've NEVER heard a better version of this song! Why is this ARTIST NOT GIVEN RECOGNITION SHE SO DESERVES??!!!
@Ramona Rael none the less.. this is some kind of "masterpiece" :-)
Absolutely correct. I discovered this...
and thought the exact same thing. What I was truly impressed by was in this video, look at her posture, temperament, and overall casualty she exhibits.
I'd compare it to eating a bowl of cereal.
Innate talent & beauty. Enjoy...

@Ramona Rael Also she does things her way. She is not bought and paid for.
@@wastedwishes7350 agreed, but I do wish Aretha could have heard this.
When you hear Aretha sing it… but I glad she did it
Four years after my first comments on this video, it still brings many goosebumps. Just fantastic.
Again wow...why is this Lady not on something where people can hear her...cause radio is cheap..she's to good for it..I can't not watch this video just once...what an angelic voice...Dammit man
Yes ..her voice is heavenly
Morgan James is amazing. I could listen to her and watch her sing all day long. Aretha would be proud of her contribution.
Not the first time Morgan has done an Aretha cover. Ms. Franklin would be so happy. I am.
I'll just say what everyone else says...this woman deserves to be much more famous. She rivals any singer on the planet.
One of the very best singers of our era. Aretha would approve, appreciate and applaud your rendition .😎🤩
Most of the time I am in physical pain, every day is hard- but songs, sung like this make me forget for a little while. Thank you Morgan 💌
❤️
Praying for your healing.
Hey really appreciate that❤
I seen the heart last week during my exams and it made my day.
Prayer too😊 you cant beat prayer x
I noticed when my legs started losing their strength, that I started using everything I had left to the maximum.
It doesnt get easier, but with hard work and prayer it sure does get better.
💚🤍🧡
I’m right there with you JJ. God Bless 🙏
Update: I have had the 2 spinal surgeries needed since 05' in the last 10 days. Wheeled down in ridiculous pain- first thought when I came to on 26.5 was that pain is gone😭 omg such an emotional week. I pray that pain never returns. Please celebrate life. Thank you for all support and prayer🕊🤍
I was just surfing TH-cam and ran across Morgan James and she has totally occupied my whole day. Beautiful, rich, captivating talent Morgan truly an angel!
Tremendously emotional performance- but I always take note that every syllable, every breath is controlled and nuanced. It seems She has a phenomenal ability to control and build the drama in a performance. And yes, we can't forget the accompanyists who are right there to frame and build the sound. True professionals all.
Musicians marvellous, but what an utterly astounding vocal performance! This was truly wonderful. Really in the stratosphere.
♥️
I’ve watched this hundreds of times now - and EVERY time I find myself swearing at the end ! How f***ing good was that? 🤩😍
I am the same sir...Dammit man she's awesome !!!
Morgan James is one of the MOST PHENOMENAL SONGSTRESS' in Modern Day! Her voice is Pure as the Heavens, smooth as Silk and more Soulful than some of these so- called modern day Black artist.
So why isn't she getting the RECOGNITION SHE SO RIGHTFULLY DESERVES?
Beats the HELL OUT OF ME!
A True & Loving Fan!

Lisa Edwards that I agree with too the artists today don't come close to the ones in the past
Lisa Edwards so for today and comparison this girl is incredible
Aretha looks down and smiles at Morgan James. Thanks for that tribute. You did the Queen proud, my lady.
She can sing .......I've been stuck on her ,... She amazing
No flashy lights no half nudity just sheer pure talent and what a voice thank you for sharing x
She painted herself a masterpiece all over this audio canvas. What a gifted artist. Thank you to the New Queen of Soul.
She sounds good but she's no new queen of soul.
Morgan, you have a sweet, amazing, potent voice, not many people have all of those. Can't understand why you are not topping the charts.
Forgot to breathe right there in the middle. Don't think I blinked either. DAYAM! she can sing it!!!
Amazing, not only does Morgan know how to deliver the performance but also knows how to work the microphone turning her head and very the distance when needed to get the volume and tone right. Singers, .. pay attention. This is how it's done. Oh, and by the way that's not some super sensitive condensor mic, that's a Shure SM7 dynamic mic! So you can just image the sound levels coming from her that requires those kind of moves. This session is a master class in... class :-).
What an amazing singer!!
My husband and I are big fans of Morgan. This is the best we've heard her sing. Incredible!!!
Is there anyone else on this planet that can go effortlessly from pure soul singing to classical soprano?( She has toured as a guest singer for symphonies)
One of our best performers of our time!
I was impressed with Morgan when I saw her with Post Modern Jukebox but I did not connect with her on an artistic level because I thought that PMJ was just a fun gimmick. So a couple of years ago now TH-cam put this very video in front of me. When I read the title my initial reaction was who does this woman think she is singing this classic Aretha song? So it was with if not hate then serious skepticism that I pressed play. Totally stunned at what I experienced I pressed play again, and again and again. I listened to this song for 45 minutes straight trying to figure out what was happening to me. The answer was simple. Morgan James is a world class singer. She is an artist in full. Listening to her music has been a joy in my life. This was my gateway to a total Morgan James addiction. Looking forward to seeing her perform in person someday soon.
I believe it is not possible to hear this too many times.
Just amazing, she one of the few that can do Aretha justice. 🤩🤩🤩
This is my favorite performance of all time. She is Amazing. She ROCKS this gorgeous song!!!! Talent beyond compare.
From all I know Aretha was a perfectionist, and I believe she is perfectly happy with your covering her. I know I most certainly am. WOW !
The voice of an angel
never heard of this wonderful artist. SHE KILLED IT..Obviously a big REE REE fan. she sang 2 of my favorite songs by Ms. Aretha
beautifully done
I know there are many beautiful women in the world, but for me..😍 Morgan James is the most beautiful woman on this planet!
Her voice gives me goosebumbs and I love it😊
Thank you 😘
You enrich my live with your music!⚘
Greetings from Germany!
Girl you sound GOOD. This is one of my favorites from the Queen ❤❤❤
I cannot think of anything to say and my breath is caught in my throat
Breath taking. You have to an exceptional singer to do this song justice.
What a gift to us all! I feel so privileged to hear Morgan’s rendition…she feels and sings with her entire being….her voice is so big and full and soulful…Thank you, Morgan!
I fell in love with this cover and this incredible gift some months back. I return to this cover whenever I want to reach the stars,
Oh me, oh my...Morgan you are truly gifted. God bless you.
RIP Aretha... Coming back to listen to this once again as such a lovely tribute to an amazing woman. Morgan encompasses the meaning of this song so well, it's a gorgeous performance.
Seeing that you enjoy this piece, you might also enjoy the original 1969 Muscle Shoals recording by Lulu. Aretha's 1972 rendition was a superb cover.
I just love listening to Morgan, she is truly a gifted artist.
Why is it that the most impressive vocal performances I've ever heard keep coming out of Morgan James. Song after song. Just Wow!!!!
I'm now a BIG fan of Morgan James. Wow! After that, how could anyone not be?
I marvel at...the joy you exude with your instrument! The fates have blessed you! Much love and best wishes for many more years to come. Thank you for the gift of your incredible talent. and the musicians ain't bad either!
Girl !!!!!!!!! Unbelievable, I'm sure Aretha is smiling down on you! Go on and put that CD out!!!!!❤
Much Love
Now there's a voice and beauty that blows the bloody doors right off its Hinges oh yeah 💥
Brad,couldn't agree with you more . Morgan is one of the great ones as is Aretha. Always loved this song, and this is a beautiful version.
She's just so amazing!
I would say that was an unbelievable performance only I know what Morgan is capable of, pure genius.
Dear Morgan I wish success and modesty will stay by your side in your great talent life. You have a rare talent and you do a very hard work. It's a real pleasure for soul listening you singing.
I can't understand how you only have 230k Followers. wish you all the best! you deserve much better! amazing as always
Morgan James!! She's got it ALL. The perfect package, looks, vocals and style!!
What I always love is watching her using her whole body to sing, like she rips her soul and insides to give it all. It's entrancing
In my opinion this is one of the hardest Aretha Franklin song to sing!
Oh Me Oh My !!! WoW !!! There's levels Y'all .... Wow I am blown away !!!
Well Dang lady! Yaaazzzz! I think the love light is shining down on you!
I could watch Morgan on TH-cam all day... and it would be a great day!!!
try this recent version , th-cam.com/video/qtFTq6VuEqE/w-d-xo.html . Really shows her evolution as a singer.
OMf-ing God. I am speechless. The woman is the freaking Queen vocal artist of our lifetime. (I know she is one of many, but this moment, this performance, pulls me all the way in.
Wow.. what a discovery. Man I love what she did with that song...
I don't know how I missed you I'm 51 and I be damned you are the greatest
Vocal perfection! You are a treasure Morgan James!
Ms Morgan,
That is and was a brilliant rendition of "Oh me oh my." It was operatic, soulful, and heart rendering. Thank you. It makes me feel good when I get the blues.
You don't quite sound like a Aretha, none the less it nails it. Thank you for your love, talent and soulfulness. I can tell you poured your whole being into it. Talent, love, and passion. You imbued it all.
Thank You;
Stephan
Wonderful tribute to Aretha ~ she smiling in Heaven ~ much love and prayers ~ ❤❤❤ ~
Morgan James
Lots of strength and power. You have become one of my favourite vocalists. Your operatic training shows. You rock.
Wow. ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS AND POWERFUL VOICE AND BEAUTY
Goosebumps 💖
I'm getting goose bumps... Morgan James, you're absolutely stunning!
Morgan, you are GODDESS! ❤️ I'm speechless, this cover is spectacular! Bless you!
Good lord, I’m in love. Just found Morgan searching for independent artists. Gorgeous, passionate and amazing vocals. The whole package.
How am I just now hearing her! Oh me, oh my! Wow! Love finding actual artists! Thank you Morgan
2020, still one of the best interpretations! There many good on this channel, but this is special.
Every so often when my soul starts to run dry, I come back here to be refreshed. 😍
Wow always blown away by her. She always puts 110% into it. You can really feel her energy.
Oh wow... I'm left kinda speechless. Amazing
Incredible voice, incredible performance. This is pure art. After enjoying this I have to be quite for some time.
Nothing less than stunning !!!
HalleluYAH! Praise the Almighty for all the soul singin sisters of all time. With Billie, Etta, Nina.... you dear Miss James have to be up there in my books as the modern soul sister. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the joy and tears your music has given me over many years.
I have no words to say about this brilliant performance keep like this
This is one of the best versions I have ever heard, rock on girl !🤠
I think this is my favorite video. Morgan you are amazing. I wish I would have found you a long time ago!
have heard many TRY to do this song.... you lady are the one and only voice that has done it justice ......thank you
Nice tribute to Aretha!
this really needed an audience because this deserved a standing O
I love her voice…….
true🧡
Christ the Lord. Say, Amen. A fine, crisp rendition of this great torch song. It brought peace to my heart.
Holy moly lettin it out !!! Goose bumps running
Morgan - you are lovely! I love your voice and everything in you! May God grant you good health and all that you wish! Greetings from Ukraine!
I love Morgan James' voice and no exaggeration I think it may be the best voice on planet earth, if not one of the top few. But sometimes I really wish she would take her soulful classic voice and pair it with the unexpected/modern songs.
Like I would love to see her sing Ed Sheeran's I see Fire, I think it would be amazing. Consider that an official request!
Did you see the most recent video released by Post Modern Jukebox with her? th-cam.com/video/Yq4KA0mUnC8/w-d-xo.html
***** Thanks! I check PMJ every week on Thursday for a new video but I forgot to yesterday so I watched it after you linked.
I LOVE PMJ videos and I particularly love PMJ w/Morgan James. However, I didn't really like this performance very much. Didn't like her phrasing and the way she sung it. Which is strange because I love most of the stuff she or PMJ does.
Per usual her vocals were off the charts. That's not even something I have to ever think about since I know she'll knock anything out of the park with ease.
I also generally like when she/PMJ does more modern songs, I love the juxtaposition of their soulful style with a modern song.
I had the same thought, that this is the best singer in the world.
Well she is no joss stone or Diana Krahll but she has some songs that are decent
What a voice it reached out and slapped me in the face just incredible
The only thing better than watching her sing is listening to her. Good lord what a woman
She doesn’t look like our beloved Aretha, but DAMN this girl can sing.... So, I closed my eyes and listened a second time and Morgan has such a pure pitch and timbre to her voice... She’s Golden ... 💕. Hubby looking dapper too … All the musicians in the room, great stuff.... 👍
Unbelievably wonderful! My favorite of hers now. Sweet emotion and depth of soul on display here!
There are no words. Finally, the time and money I've put into my sound system is returning on those investments. Such an amazing and extraordinary talent. Please don't stop.
WOW ! WOW !
Oh my God! I just fell in love AGAIN...
This is the best performance ive seen in a while !!!! What pipes!!! And beautiful! ❤❤❤
I can't STOP listening to this! 😍😍😍 👏👏👏
WoW! I never this song before.Now I cant stop listening,cheers to you. You have done a fantastic job. I am a big fan of you. I love your the sound of your voice. You have great taste in music too. I am always looking forward to your new covers. I hope you will come and blow us away someday here in Europe.
great,great,great!!!
That amazing voice coming out of that slender body. I'd never match the two in a line-up.
She has an extra lung I think.
R C Nelson I just could tell shed be good I could just sense it I don't know how I just could but I agree not nearly as good as Aretha but then again who is? but I could sense even though she's thin shed have a big voice.
