Twinke’s vocals is nasty! She can do so many things! They all have beautiful voices.
That part
And Twinkie Clark is responsible for giving every sister their part in the song and how to sing it she's a master genius at this!
The musical telepathy between these sisters is unmatched. It’s a true testament to their musical gifts and interpersonal relationships. They are literally talking to each other while singing.
Wow. In all of my 40 years of loving the Clark Sisters, I have never heard it out like this. Awesome!
💯💯💯
💯
"Musical telepathy"- perfect description; so beautifully said
Nope wont put telepath on the gospel nope nope nope!
That note Karen hit, slept in, woke up & continued hit non-stop was definitely a gift. There’s only a few singers I know that can do that & they are….Teena Marie, Patti Labelle, Rachelle Farrell, Whitney & Mariah.
To MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE….. Brilliance.
Darryl Coley, also
Auntie Jackie is the balance for me! Love her tone!
There Mother was a genius also in terms of music, and a woman of God, Mother Mattie Moss Clark was phenomenal
Lets not forget TWINKIE CLARK
Indeed she Miss Mattie is the Root 🙌🏾💖🙏🏾
Years ago, PBS on interview (documtary)Ms. Mattie Moss. The sisters were very young then.
I can never get Twinkie’s whole verse! She killed it
She sounds just the instrument she sings about. Sounds like a symphony music soooo sweet
Twinkie Clark birthed Karen Clark now we have kierra!
No one talks about Jackie. But Jackie was holding that tenor down!!!! I always loved her vocal parts the best!!!❤❤❤
The bomb❤❤❤
Miss Karen Clark held that note for on astonishing 24 seconds 😳😳😳. Amazing vocal work.
32
The harmonies, the singular voice from all of them. One voice but you can hear the differences. The famous runs. Ohhh and that forever note
How did mattie moss get that outta them i have no odea. Some kinda voodoo maybe
@@adonaiyah2196 its called genuine worship
This has been my favorite song of theirs from day one . Twinkie’s mimicry of a clarinet then the “ muted trumpet “ effect ? Pure mastery and genius ! The blend of this sisters is no less than PHENOMENAL ! Truly anointed Sisters born of an anointed musical genius - Mother Mattie Moss Clark 💖💕🔥🎶
Dorinda voice is my Favorite. She is THE BEST MIDDLE SINGER EVA!
Yes, Dorinda is just amazing to me. No one sounds like her.
LOVE DORINDA!!
It’s the jazzy twang for me! 🙌🏾She would be a killer jazz singer!
@@redzoom7857 She sounds so much like her mother.
This was amazing!!! You mentioned her tongue in the video lol.... I don't think people realize how most of them have a lisp and how their lisp actually contributes to their amazing sound
YES it definitely contributes to the “Clark sisters sound”
Lisp and a slight stutter. I think that's why Dorinda cab scat so smooth! Listen to her speak and she stumbles (pauses) a lot.
when i accidentally broke one of my front tooth it left a gap i kept cause it allows that air to maintain
It's the unison for me. The way they sing the same note together WITHOUT ANY dissonance is incredible. That is time and practice right there. They have very unique voices from each other. So the way that they come together to sing unison is what amazes me.
This song is pure ART! It's so descriptive...
As a singing sibling, I like hearing siblings that sing. Just like siblings look alike, they also have one common feature that makes them sound alike. I can hear myself when I hear my sisters. It is really creepy but also kind of touching because we lost our mom and this is something she gave all of us and we all have the same voice but it’s like the difference between a viola, violin, and cello. It’s like the one family might have the same nose or high cheek bones, we kind of have similar features in our voice. It makes me feel like a part of a family and DNA.
When I hear Karen I hear her sisters, her daughter and even J Moss their cousin. I hear their familia. I hear their inheritance.
Yes, there's something uniquely special about a singing family. The Walls Group bless my soul like this ALL the time. My family is like that, too, in Barbados 🇧🇧
Condolences on the loss of your mom. My two younger sisters lost our mom, too. Jesus is near to the broken hearted. You're not alone
Yes!!
When I first heard this back in high school I thought it was just Karen singing not all three
Their blend is unmatched
Same!! I was like, wow she gave that second part a different tone… like she’s a diff person, and a different different tone for the third part LOLOL Had NO idea it was the three of them singing lead lol
“And even in the midnight hooouuur-er” sound like J. Moss. The Moss really came out of Karen on that part lol
All 4 you mean. Don’t forget about aunt Jackie
What’s crazy is Karen has sung this alone and can sound like each one of her sisters.
th-cam.com/video/MT462keZWZk/w-d-xo.html
What’s even MORE IMPRESSIVE is that at 16:09 she didn’t take ANY TIME TO RECOVER HER OXYGEN! She went right into the next note IMMEDIATELY!!! 😩🥺😟
Mama trained them sisters ❤️❤️❤️❤️ one voice. Sends chills down your spine when they sing ❤️❤️
Funny how Twinkie and Karen makin one another laugh lol
Look like Twinkie wasn't trying to sing her part 🤣 I always giggle at that part
Mariah Carey mentions Karen Clark Sheard as one of her inspirations. What an honor but we all know Karen been doing this for years along with her fabulous sisters.
Dorinda killed that! The runs were so smooth. I’m definitely over here tryna copy her licks. I wish I could grunt like Twinkie tho. Karen the most dramatic, of course. That long note was insane!
Yaaasss!!!! Same! Dorinda is the truth!
Sis don’t hurtcha sef’ 😂
You are so underrated, I’ve never taken a vocal lesson or music class in my damn life, but looking at your videos gives me so much insight on the musicality of artists before me, at 18 I be feeling like a vocal sage looking at your vids lmaoo
I appreciate this!
Never too late to start tho! 🙂
Me too! Didn’t realize singing could be so technically intentional and colorful… it’s deeper than just a mere sound coming out your mouth
You are awesome and I love how you break down the vocals. I can tell you are a gifted singer as well. I've watch other 'so-called' vocal teachers analyze vocalists, but never in this way where you draw us into this vocal lesson. Thank you for being so vocal about the Clark Sisters' vocal styling. I love it🥰
He dissects it the way a classical pianist would evaluate it
He dissects it the way a classical pianist would evaluate it
TWINKIE!!!!!!...unmatched!
I suspect also since Karen was much younger than the others that she has had more of an opportunity to study and develop her gift.
Dorinda holds the pocket down. Like, 10 toes down!! And Ms. Twinkie....smh. Just yes Lord, and Karen driving the Mack-truck, full speed💜🌟
Don't forget about Jacky holding it together when any one of her sisters adlib
“how is she doing that”
“i dont know” 😭 RIGHTTT
LISTEN. Lol. I'm not even about to play with it... I DO NOT KNOW! Hahaha.
Gotta shout out Donald Lawrence and the Tri-City Singers🔥💛🔥💛
You better sing!!!! You are so talented (vocally) and astute (technically). You know what you're talking about and I LOVE your videos!
:)
Isn’t he?!!!! ❤️
Idk if y’all noticed but when she first started holding the note of course she took a big breath and then as the note went on her head went down. Then she came back up after she let it go. I could be wrong but maybe that’s how she held it so long. Either way Karen deserves to be in some record book for that note ✨✨👑
I love their harmony. It's so well blended with each other that you can't tell which person is singing which part.☺️
U really can tho
These technical lessons is what becomes the bridge between singing and song artistry... when you're visualizing the song more than just throwing notes together.
Yep!
I mean what can you say?! Those girls SANG!!! And the hair!!! YEEEESS!!!! These girls playing with these vocals and hairstyles in 2021! Just iconic! And I agree about the repeated vowels. It’s a signature of theirs! Thanks for this review!🙌🏾🙏🏾🥰
🤩🤩🙌🏾🙌🏾
My favorite part is when they smile at one another
Me too! That sisterly love!
Omg I love this song. As a matter of fact this entire album was the bomb. I used to have the 📼 vhs of this concert
Beautifully done! I'm so glad someone broke this down. It's a vocally fascinating song.
🙌🏾💥
this shows how much of a good ear their mom had she trained their voices like that… Even with her choirs in person
As for the to meeeee she actually has held it even longer in concert. I predict that she made the note ride on the release of the big breathe she took. That’s the reason why she was able to hold it that long and end it properly. The control was great
She did it again in kierras channel to see if she could hold it as long as she did originally and I think she did it during their virtual concert too. She’s just crazy.
@@crohniequeenab ooooh! What's the video?
THE CLARK SISTERS, to me, set the STANDARD of a female group harmonizing. Their incredible uniqueness is absolutely brilliant! They were ahead of their time. And, whomever is the lead singer, utilizes the microphone to make unique vocal sounds. Good God!Hallelujah! Sometimes they'll do techniques with a microphone that blows my mind! Remarkable! No one was doing that before the Clark Sisters. And, Twinkie, what a prolific songwriter, vocalist, and organist. The Clark Sisters, to me, still to this day, are unmatched! Can I get an AMEN? 🎼🎹🎤🎤🎤🎤🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵
amen ❤
The Clarks will ALWAYS be the greatest bc of their ridiculously unique sound that has shaped alot of contemporary Gospel music. Great review!! Also I was wondering if you would review Loren Allred singing 'Never Enough' with David Foster? I would like to see your take on her performance.
I see how so many R&B singers are inspired.
Yep!
This song makes me so emotional, Dorinda to me could have been a smooth R&B singer with that rasp. God bless these women Amen 🙏🏽
When I tell u THIS ☝🏾 is one of my faaavorite songs to be in the car with by myself lol just appreciating and trying things out! God’s gifts!!
Oh Jesus is A Love Song 😱 one of my all times favs by them! That 27 sec note Karen does ooh wee 😳!! Yesss 🙌🙏🙌🙌
Can we talk about how friggin' JAZZY Dorinda looks here.
I listen to this at least 3 times a week
Every other day for me lol
You were so on point. I grew up listening to the Clark Sisters and admire their sound. Go Twinkieeeee!!!
There harmony is perfect and it is so soothing to the ear.
Your theory is spot on.. I’ve been practicing it for years… until the point of passing out🤦🏽♀️💯🎶
It should be understood and recognized that out of THIS GROUP there was MANY singers born who patterned themselves after them. Faith Evans, Kelly Price, (Karen), Fantasia (Dorinda) Brandy and Missy (with the harmony arrangements). And just so we are ALL clear Karen Clark was/is the greatest singer of HER Generation she was even Whitney Houston's favorite singer. At any rate also dont forget that their Mother and SISTER Twinkie Clark (she usually played the organ etc was essentially their "vocal coach" as well) most people who arent really associated woth the church usually never know this.
I’ve always said faith was Karen’s vocal daughter
Loved this. They are all so gifted and to be able to still be just as good for over 50 years.
Dorinda brings notes to her sessions... so her notes are always prepared and planned good strategy
AH! 🙌🏾
Like she writes out what she’s going to sing…on sheet music?! 🤯🤯🤯
One of my favorite songs. This dynamic can do amazing things vocally. Great analysis as always. ❤
Saw The Clark Sisters in church in San Jose CA. They were awesome. For gospel singers they sound really jazzy to me.
I love all of the sisters and what they add to the group I love Dorinda raspy voice and her runs are underrated Twinkie is Twinkie she has the best growl out of the sister and Jacky is my girl we don’t give her credit then Karen has always been my favorite
He gave us a run through baby cause now I can actually work on approaching these notes thank you Jaron, and TCS true gospel gems and powerhouses
🙌🏾🙌🏾
@@jmlegrairstudio I was wondering can you also analyze Kierra Sheard virtual concert Ft TCS my redeemer liveth
I love watching siblings sing together as well!!!
Yea, like the Walls Group ❤
I absolutely love the Clark sisters! They are legends and vocal beasts! Karen is my fave (echoes, high notes, squalls, rolls, repeated syllables), and Dorinda next!, Anointed for sure! yes JESUS!! ❤️🔥
The song is very heavily Jazz influenced like an Ella Fitgerald Nancy Wilson classic but Gospel fuel charged song
I love it!! You are dope my guy and what can we say about The LEGENDARY Clark Sisters🤦🏾♂️ they are phenomenal! Thank God for their mother training them when they were young because those harmonies are like no other
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Jarrrronnnnn....Jaron, you are a reaL one for this. This the one. Always here for a TCS/Golden Girl Video
🤩🤩🙌🏾🙌🏾
You are excellent at what you do. Very sound and precise in analysis.
I love how these siblings are all sopranos and can take any note, when started Karen leading dorinda took the top and Jacky took the middle and twinkie went to the bottom and then they even inverted up❗️
My God! I just love, and have always loved, how they can have one sound or 4 different sounds at any time. Some of the most beautiful group unison singing ever!
YESSSSS.
That laugh of sheer satisfaction at 6:09!
I really can't provide much of a comment because you broke it down so succinctly! AND this is one of my most favorite songs!
Listen I love it! And thank you!
Ok, Jaron so I want to see you analyze a video of you and your brothers singing!!! :-)
That would be fun! 😂😂 I wanna bring them in as well.
Finally! Yes! And it would be wonderful to hear your take on Nothing To Lose ( from the Florida A&M recording) by The Clark Sisters. But we patient. 😁 but this analysis was great.
That would be a fun one too!
@@jmlegrairstudio that one is less ‘produced’ more raw one could say especially because Twinkie at that point had not been part of the group for awhile. The extended version shows how they are working their way through the song. Fascinating and brilliant at the same time. Those placements, riffs, runs and carrying the message of the song. Pfffff gifts gifted 🙏🏿. Now your analysis 😁😁😁
I'm so glad to see u analyze this performance. I luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuve this song. I had an uncle who hooked up audio throughout their home and would wake up me and my cousins with the Clark Sisters as an alarm clock.
Twinkie did a lot of singing in trumpet for this song.... Love, Love, Love!
Love the Clark Sisters ever since I was a kid back in the 80s.
I love the Clark sisters harmonies.
Please review Worship the King by THEEE Twinkie Clark from her Live in Charlotte album!!!!! She was singing like machine in that song! She's definitely a vocal genius, and my personal favorite singer!! 🙌
She did something unusual in that album, she sung soprano the entire album
I came here just to hear you attempt “the note” and you did not disappoint. 👌🏾
✨ I’m glad I didn’t! Thank you!
BOY BYE YOUR VOICE IS SO BEAUTIFUL 🥰 AWE GOD BLESS YOU. LORD HAVE MERCY GIVE ME GOOSE BUMPS. JESUS!!!!!
Thank you!
Twinkie is unbelievable. Directing your Sisters, the Genius of Gospel Music
Please please please please please please please do Twinkie Clark featuring Rance Allen - Trust in him
twinkie&karen are from a different planet!!!!!!!! i would love for you do analysis of twinkie "trust in him" w/ rance allen and donnie & karen "wait on the lord" live recording
I would love to hear you and your brothers sing together!!
One day! SOON.
I'm so lost for words I'm in awe in how wonderful they sang twink Clark is something different ❤❤❤
I love this song!!!!! Twinkie killed it🔥🔥🔥. Well, they all did!
Ps. You’re good sir👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾.
Thank you!!
I wish you break down Dorinda. You just did a tiny bit for her part. It would be cool and informative to hear what you hv to say about Auntie Jacky also. I just ❤️❤️🌹❤️ The LEGENDARY Clark Sisters!!!
I love them too! I could only cram so much into this video but maybe I’ll do a whole video on her.
@@jmlegrairstudio That would be nice if you could get more in depth with a vocal analysis or breakdown
OK BUT YOU CAN SANGGG!!! We ain't gon let that slide!
Another great analysis. If I could sing like these sisters, I would never shut up!
Thank you! And ditto!
Love your analysis on different types of music!! Keep up the good work!!
I just love you, brother. You’re definitely authentic in what you do. 💯
Karen I believe held that note for 3 counts of 8. I lost count, but man!!! So talented. All of them. My favorite group. I love how you explain and stop to thoroughly explain the vocal usage.
Now you know you could’ve blessed us with “channnnged” in the same octave Karen sang it in. I feel robbed.
😂😂🖤🖤
This was grand! Thanks you, whew I wish I would have run into you at the Nashville Reunion tour I would have lost it! Sending big love from Pennsylvania I’ve been following your channel about a year and I LOVE IT!
Jaron, can you break down Karen’s echo technique in another video.
This right here! One of the best gospel music moments ever! Thank you for this.
I know u didn't just do that note 😭😭😭 I'm about to call u Karen Clark Sheard LOL
😂😂😂😂😂 thats my girl!
The choir was on point
It’s the Clark Sisters I know they are gon sang to God!! Theatrics Chu’Chn we know TGBTG LOVE ME SOME CLARK SISTERS!
Great Analysis Mr J!! They fit so perfectly together!!
There’s none like the Clark Sisters periodt
Kiki was on song association and she said that her mother was inhaling when she sang that note lol i didn’t even know that was possible. I think you would like that episode its the Terrell show with Kiki Sheareds during the pandemic virtual
Hm! Okay! Haha I don’t know how to do that but hey! It was great!
@@jmlegrairstudio Love this!!
Singing at Bailey’s Cathedral in Detroit Michigan I was there that night!!
I absolutely LOVE your expertise and how thorough you are when you explain things. Your passion for music esp gospel is so inspiring and refreshing! . Can we get you to analyze one of YOUR performances?? The way you held that note @ 14.37! wow
Thank youuuuuuu! Wow!
Alright so when are we gonna get a video of your vocals, are you a recording artist yourself, this is one of my favorite performances from the Clark sisters
Haha! I am not like an “active” recording artist. I mainly just teach. But I appreciate the love!
You are that Holy Ghost critique voice master. I love your spirit and you do it without an ego. That's what I love about you.. I just subscribe I'm looking forward to more. Blessings and divine favor to you and your family.
Thank you so muuuuuch.
I'm just tuning in to hear you sing!
