that's how colaborations are suppose to be just singing and having fun, but I gotta take my hat off to that background they must've had coffee, hot tea, cough drops and everything else they were FANTASTIC
Brain Courtney Wilson, brother you're bless, there is a note, you hit when you say" the reason why I smile", right there you walk around heaven.even CC, floated for a minute. Keep Singing, it's really worth fighting for. Amen
What a way to tribute someone.... Brian effortlessly embodied Bebe’s smooth vocals and Yolanda well what else can be said she brings the heat every time especially when she duplicated Cece’s riffs and runs to the tea on this song. Great tribute!!
Yolanda is a vocal beast but she is also humble. I have seen her purposely hold back her voice not to try to upstage anyone. Now, as for this performance, I think Yolanda was awesome! She exceeded all expectations.
GREAT GREAT GREAT Duet!!! Their (Yolanda and Brian) voices along with the band and background singers (Donald Lawrence and Company) was perfect!! AWESOME tribute!!!!!
I looooooooove it. And seeing Brian Courtney Wilson singing it makes me happier, on top of that singing it along with Yolanda Adams. Wow! Love the song and the artists singing it, and love Bebe&Cece Winans. I'm going to bed happy tonight.
Absolutely love these two...they did it justice. As a side note does anyone else realize that look Brian's giving Yolanda around 1:53?!?! They would be cute together. Proud of this tribute
That's Be be and cc they wrote 2YEAR ago its thats listen to babe and cc you do some dancing around my favorite from theam is lost without you it have you in tears it's on you ti TOUB THE ONE THEY TRYING TO SING
@Fred Staton Jr That wasn't trying too hard. If you don't know, Yolanda was having so much fun on this song, she was holding herself back from going all the way in! That girl's a beast with it all day, every day!
@@chinemeremudoh3732 I've listened to her before. We can agree to disagree. I think she is a talented woman. I respect her talent. I am just not a fan.
They both were a part of this event. Tamia did her duet with Jonathan McReynolds. They sang “Heaven and It’s OK” Deborah performed “Hold Up The Light” with Fred Hammond.
These background vocals in these performances!!!! Props!!!!
right! I was thinking the same thing. the back up singers are on point.
+Chris Craig Yes Gawd!
Mikki Taylor those are members of the Trip City singers. they're among the best.
Mikki Taylor TH-cam Donald Lawrence song I Am God and listen the harmonize

This is the definition of IN. THE. POCKET! They killed it!
'The reason why I smile when I wake up' put a smile on both Bebe and Ceces faces. 💜
Den Bishop Brian killed that!! I love the way CeCe stepped out like that!
Yeah, they liked that part!!!
The best part honestly
This is a very difficult song to ding especially CeCe's part. They did great
Ikr ? Didnt notice until keke and mcclurkin tried to

Yes it is! CeCe has that special voice NO ONE can duplicate. And she does it with ease.
Piece of cake for a Yolanda .😅
The background vocals!🙌🙌🙌
Donald Lawrence and Company. Need I say more?
Yes!!🔥🔥🔥

Those smiles on BeBe and CeCe was their stamp of approval! I Love it!!
Brian NAILED this performance😍😍

The background vocalists were singing like melodies from heaven. Very well done!
Superb background singers!

Brian Courtney Cox is definitely a beast, and this has been for years.. his Runs are legendary. No one could've did bebe part justice anyway

Yolanda and Brian honoring the Queen and her brother! "The reason why I smile" 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Outstanding Brian! He killed it the whole song!
This makes me so happy!!!!!!/...their chemistry is amazing!!,......Brian...Stunning singing!!!!

Charliewilson

Trip City Singers -The Best Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely love these two...they did it justice. As a side note does anyone else realize that look Brian's giving Yolanda around 1:53?!?! They would be cute together. Proud of this tribute
They would! But he's married. Plus, Yolanda is like 10 years older than he is.
Isn't Brian about 38?
Yes that smile gets us church folks in trouble 😁
@@brittanylove4316 she don't look it!
That was beautiful I felt all that love yessssss❤❤❤❤❤❤
ONE TIME FOR THE BACKGROUNDS!
@2:03 “The reason why I smile when I wake up…” That part right there! Even Bebe and Cece were feeling that one! He has a beautiful tone!
Listening in 2021. Classic tribute. All great Gospel singers. 💛Bebe and Cece's responses are SO adorable. The love of God is great and good.
Fantastic rendition by Yolanda and Brian...almost feels like a sin to alter that song! kudos Mama Cece and Papa Bebe
So wonderful 💗💗💗
Wonderful!
These two had soo much with this performance...it showed throughout the whole thing...lol
Absolutely brilliant job!
Beautifully done. Bless them both.
Is that Donald Lawrence handling the background? It has his signature sound on it
jonathan kenon Most definitely! He's a mastermind!
Absolutely beautiful!
😍😍😍😊 this was beyond!!!
Absolutely the Best ever!!!!!
Chills!!!!!
I love this performance.
☝🏾️☝🏾☝🏾☝🏾🎤🎤🎤🎤so powerful

Yes indeed Honey!!!! Love this!!!
Can I please get this off repeat 🤦🏽♀️🎶
WOW!!!AMAZING 🖤
Hallelujah
Pretty hard song to sing. Vocals had to be up there with this. I bet Bebe and Cece were impressed.
They sung this song!
the BGs are SQUALLING kids baby
Didn’t they simply KILL????
Yolanda's shoes are nice!!
Wait a minute. Deborah Cox is from canada. How she know all our gospel songs? lol
toomuchfourU God is global
CeCe Winans is her mentor. And this was considered an "R&B" song to the masses 30 years ago.
bebe looks.... nvm i wanna be respectful and clean
🎙♦️🎶♦️🎶
❤🙌🏿🙏🏿
Brian killed
man, i thought londa was whitney for a moment
right
You can tell Yolanda Adams was holding back.
Yeah, she was trying to stay with the vibe of the song.
Does anyone know the fellow on keyboards with the hat and glasses?
I believe he is a member of Take 6. Don't know his name.
Khristian Dentley of Take 6
Power u cant sit down
1:50
Brian Courtney Wilson was sangin... I could've done without Yolanda.
JaimeGreen2013 Unfortunately, yes...
@@RossinBama1982 How dare you!😤😠😡
J. Ware SHUT YOUR HATING BEHIND UP! 😡
@@fredrickdavis5489 Sir bye! I said what I said...she cool but she didn't sound that good with him on this night
Are they singing to each other? Just curious?
Cj Randolph Not really, but it's a testament to their chemistry on this song. Perfect collaboration.
I like Yolanda voice but she suppose try to do too much with the song and sometimes all those runs aren't needed.
Change2be1 who cares what you think? You get up there and sing. I'll wait!
She didn’t even do anything, idiot. Y’all really come up with the dumbest things to say
@L Douglas exactly! She barely does any runs but when other gospel artists do it, everyone loves it
@L Douglas i don’t think people know what runs are😭
Yolonda kinda got on my nerves on this one cause I feel like she was more focused on doing lil hand movements and dances over vocals. Still good tho.
I loved the original by BeBe and Cece Winans. I'm trying to be upset about this,, it went out the window just ss soon as Yolanda opened her mouth.
This is a tough song to try and attempt the original version
Great job though
i love Yolanda Adams but it seemed like she was trying too hard. Brian was just smooth with his. Both are incredible artists.
That's Be be and cc they wrote 2YEAR ago its thats listen to babe and cc you do some dancing around my favorite from theam is lost without you it have you in tears it's on you ti
TOUB THE ONE THEY TRYING TO SING
@Fred Staton Jr That wasn't trying too hard. If you don't know, Yolanda was having so much fun on this song, she was holding herself back from going all the way in! That girl's a beast with it all day, every day!
Dumb post alert!!!
Yolanda Adams never has to try too hard. She’s gettin her entire life to the song.
@@chinemeremudoh3732 I've listened to her before. We can agree to disagree. I think she is a talented woman. I respect her talent. I am just not a fan.
@@amcra1 we can agree to disagree. You have your opinion and I have mine.
i dont like the backgrond the music and vocals were drowning them out. this man has a great voice
They should've let Tamia or Deborah Cox sing
They both were a part of this event.
Tamia did her duet with Jonathan McReynolds. They sang “Heaven and It’s OK”
Deborah performed “Hold Up The Light” with Fred Hammond.
Tamia with Brian on this song 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Sheesh
It sounds good but it's to slow and it don't hit like the original
BeBe and CeCe look so proud 😊😊
