Back when the choir would come marching in church swaying side to side with that lil step walking to the choir stand! Good ol church days!
Yessss!
Amen!!
When I go back and visit the South, the choirs still march in. In fact, even when I visited Paso Robles, California in 2018, the choir marched in and it did my heart glad. (Second Baptist) I was the guest musician and it was so heartfelt. They marched in with “Sign Me Up”. Brought tears to my eye. I love our traditions!
Well so nice to see! Those choir were marching so elegant and proudly, they were no joke
Yeah i miss those days!😢
The three sopranos on Wholy Holy were 🔥 🔥 Fire!!!!
They almost made you think of Cissy❤️❤️She would've killed that whole arrangement👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
@@ciarrajohnson3849 Yes.. They were. When I heard them for the first time I thought there were 10 of them! That choir director was masterful..
Yes they were
Yes they were fire yes sir song it Queen
Wait are we talking 1972ish era Cissy or 2016ish background Cissy for Aretha? 😎
Aretha didn't get enough respect (no pun intended) as a pianist.
I totally agree she was fierce on them keys
And self taught! AGREED!
She was a force to be reckoned with!!!
I mean....this choir is Fire...singing SITTING DOWN😗...THE those 3 standing are blowing...But Aretha is somehow....standing out and showing out😩
So true. She was an excellent pianist.
That entrance song the choir did " we are on our way" put tears in my eyes. We use to have real good church back in the day.
Yes we did.
When we viewed this at the cinema, and the choir marched in, we stood up unintentionally because that what we do in normal church . We forgot we were in the theatre and didn't care. Also at the end when Mother Gertrude Ward couldn't contain herself anymore when Aretha sang Never Grow Old
Ain't that the truth!
Yes Lord
Can you please write the lyrics here? I love it, too, but not sure of every word. Thank you!
I waited over 20 years for this to come out. I used to listen to this album almost every night before I went to bed. Always trying to visualize how it looked in person. Man I really enjoyed this dvd.
OMG!! Same here. My mom would play the album every Sunday. Then I purchased the CD here. When I saw the choir come down the aisle. I had no clue this is what they did when James Cleveland was singing this song.
thanks bro....great comment
I ordered the dvd from Amazon and I enjoyed it also. Aretha's voice...simply AMAZING!!!
Me, too! My jaws hurt from smiling so wide watching this DVD!
Yea I remember when this record came out(I was 5) and the day Mommy came in the house with it. I could not believe that Aretha Franklin was singing. I'm sure I'd heard gospel but not by someone I was familiar with. I looked at that album cover for a long time in awe. I had never seen her sooooo natural and she had a afro . She seemed sooooo......regular, I was just amazed. I wished i was there. That was probably the 1st time me noticing the record was live.This album's been in my ear for 48 years so to see the visual that is the album , was a dream come true.
I saw this back in April and I haven't been the same since.. My god , that woman can sing .. The greatest of all time!!! RIP QUEEN
Yes.....her anointing is undeniable.
Amen
Same for me; that film put me in another place - is it nuts to admit I was pretty much crying the entire way through? She was the most beautiful in every way.
My dad got me into Ella Fitzgerald, (his favourite) when I was a kid... Much later on, played him Aretha and he totally got it. Rest easy Queen.
Always refer to Jesus as God
As the choir marches in I am reminded that we a grand people. The youngins need to be also reminded.
I watch this every Sunday on Hulu. It's my Church service.
When God created Aretha, he gave an extra sprinkle of talent to save our souls. That voice, her gifted hands on the piano...she knew how to sing!
MrStyle23 Amen 🙌
.....amen!!!!
Amen!
Marvin’s version was already perfect and then Aretha took it to church....
I went to see this film yesterday, when she was singing Amazing Grace, I can't stop my tears!!! This is my very first time crying like a baby in cinama.
“Whole Holy” is a sleeper Re Classic. Not many know about it, but the voice that she was in for it’s recording was nothing short of phenomenal. Only God can anoint a voice like that. Purely sensational.
Tyquan,AND TO nobody but a Black female or females can sang like this!!!! NOBODY,,OFTEN IMITATED BUT just CAN'T be duplicated!!!
It was originally by her friend Marvin Gaye but she definitely owned this.
@@gucciysl Marvin did record the song for What’s Going On but Aretha turned it into a classic..as she always did..
Marvin Gaye sang this first Aretha Franklin sang this to my soul administered in the right places Thank You Marvin Gaye Wholy Holy,thank you QUEEN OF SOUL FOR BRINGING IT TO MY HEART AND SOUL, BRINGS LOTS OF TEARS ,THINKING ABOUT WAY BACK IN THE YEARS OF WHAT THE WORLD 🌎 HAS TO COME, (MAW JINNY.)
Any song Ms Franklin covered, she transformed and elevated
I can't watch this without crying I mean one minute into her singing and I'm just bawling
That's not just her talent man, that's the power of the Holy Spirit that comes through her voice !!!
@@annietangherlini5745 me too its so beautiful 😭😭😭
She was a singer through and through. She was a communicator. She had feeling, and she made you feel it too. Typical of gospel to touch people......but it was also great to see her touch people through the secular as well. But it was all rooted and sprung from this right here. Gospel. She truly was anointed from the very beginning.
Ms. Franklin's son said in an interview, that she sang with her eyes closed, she was in "the zone". That the only thing she heard was the music. I can only watch in awe the amazing talent she had. What a treasure she was to us all.
loveloses I was noticing that also. It's almost like The Holy Spirit was using her body to send His message. Aretha Franklin is proof that angles do walk among us. ❤️
Her make up is stunning !
To today's younger generation notice no autotune needed nor required.
I appreciate the fact that you mentioned ''nor required''. Because nowadays, some singers wouldn't ''need'' autotune, but it is required by the engineers, producers, by the ''industry''. It is easier to slide the autotune in the mix than it is to coach singers and to do multiple takes. Motown had dancing, singing, music theory lessons. Nowadays the label are pretty much '' the more you can do at home, the better. Come here prepared and we'll do the minimum.'' Don't think the ''younger generation'' is responsible... The latest generation is a result of evolution and so, a results of previous generations!
12 year olds aren't demanding autotune or in the booth with artists making them use autotune. get a life and stop trying to discredit ours every chance you get.
You are about to witness hearing a women singing in her most pure form
Aretha looked wonderful! Her eyes were truly beautiful!
After watching Genius: Aretha Franklin on National Geographic Channel, I had to find as many of Aretha’s original videos as I can. She is so amazing! That movie was great, but my God, there is no one like the Queen of Soul, Ms. Aretha Franklin...she Rest In Peace.
WE SHOULD BELIEVE IN EACH OTHERS DREAMS.
Her voice was timeless.
OMG! Being at this church on that day had to be a once in a lifetime event! Aretha Frankin and Rev. James Cleveland! Wow!
Aretha Franklin is MUSIC 🎶👸🏾💯
🎯
Aretha was birthed of old of God to a family of Gospel as a child. What a Gods Gift to us all.
God I love this. So many of lives of pasts of others, so beautiful. Amen!
To watch the Queen at work in her absolute prime is an honor. I'm grateful and humbled to have lived to experience this.
When that choir walks in they look they mean business!!! I love it!!
The Young Reverend James Cleveland The King Of Gospel There Be No King With Out A Queen Miss Aretha Franklin Both Are Going To A Place Where We Never Grow Old.
Yesss indeed Amen
James Cleveland was already a legend... He probably has more songs and albums than any gospel singer besides Rev Jimmy Swaggert James Cleveland is a pioneer of many things.
I play the whole concert everyday, it fills my soul❤️
Ditto ❤
I`ve loved lots of singers` voices over the years but Aretha is the most fascinating to me. Seeing her sing this was an amazing experience .
Me too!
Agreed
She is playing the piano with her eyes closed!....and her early 70s sound was pure magic. Such a legend.
Wow... choir was amazing. Aretha....... 50 odd years later.. no one can still touch her..
I'm truly and completely audible-words-speechless and selahing-stoic and yet dry-crying and wet-crying tears of Anointed Holy Spirit-Flowing, Christ Jesus-Reverencing and Almighty God-Glorifying JOY inexpressible and full Glory,,, having witnessed this Anointed Ministry in song and music and having experienced, and still continuing as such experiencing this side of the passing-away heaven and earth, 'an appetizer-Helping and Blessed Assurance Foretaste of New Heaven and New Earth and New Jerusalem Glory Devine and Heavenly Bliss and Ambrosia!!!' Almighty GOD is "WHOLY HOLY"!!!,,, 'WHOLLY-ALTOGETHER' HOLY,,, HOLY,,,,,, HOLY,,,, HOLY,,,,, HOLY,,,,,,, HOLY ,,,,,,,,,,,, HOLY!!!!!!! AMEN!!!!!!! Psalm 89 - KJV (especially Verses 1-17), Psalm 84:1-7 KJV, Psalm 122:1 KJV, Isaiah 6:1-3 KJV, Revelation 4 KJV (especially Verses 1-3, 8-11), Revelation 7:9-17 KJV, Revelation 21:1-3, 22-23 KJV, Revelation 22:1-7 KJV
I'm honored to say I saw this 3 times. Long Live the Queen!
Where do you watched it
@@perlamtz4043 I saw it in theaters. But you can find it on Amazon Prime.
This is the real Aretha sound. 👑
Bernard Purdie could play those drums like nobody else could back then. My favorite drummer of all times.
This film..... smh, brought me back to 1972 when a mesmerized 5 year old (myself), first heard Aretha Franklin sing gospel. The first time I had ever heard a live album, EVER. I've waited 47 years. To see the visual that is the album is truly a dream come true. It is the one and only gospel album in our house growing up and is the ONLY gospel album I listen to...PERIOD. I can't wait until this comes on DVD, i'll own 2
Rosebud Draper I was eight and yes it was mesmerizing! She could play and sing at the same time and by ear ! She was and is a gift.
I'm so happy you got to see this and that I just discovered it 😊🙏❤️ What a gift for all mankind.
Watched this in theaters. was blown away from the start to end! my favorite film of 2019!
I told myself i wouldnt cry watching this because ive been listening to this album for years but when she sang never grow old, i lost it.
Me too.... Mommy brought this album home one day back in 1972, I was 5. Up until that day, every album cover I had seen of Aretha Franklin was fancy, shiny hair, makeup and jewelry but, this album cover had me in aweeeeee. I was fascinated and very confused as to why she looked so........ regular. Hair natural and covered like Mommy, no makeup like mommy with a dress similar to the one Mommy would wear. I just couldn't understand it and when I asked why Daddy said " because she wanted too ". That put her in a different position for me. I'on know why because I was already told she was The Queen but, at that moment I believed it. This was the 1 and only gospel album in our house growing up that was played on a weekly basis and we practiced Islam. When I saw this video shortly after she passed, plz believe me when I tell you, I shed tears. Went to the theater and sang and cried again. It was truly a dream come true.
"We need the strength, the power and the feelings..."
its good to listen to real singers
The way choir came in the house is just cool.
Ole time chruch 🥰
I went to the movie theater to watch this and loved it. It took me back to the old school church services in the South with grandparents. I will definitely buy this movie if it released in stores. So great!
i love the sight of dark skin and the curly hair. black americans display african heritage to its full glory
Love this.. I stood in front of this church last week during my trip to Los Angeles ❤️❤️❤️!!
I was fortunate enough to see Aretha live about 20 years ago. I wanted to so badly to hear some songs from this album. But I suppose she was giving the general audience what they wanted to hear - the Hits. Don't get me wrong, it was a once in a lifetime experience. But now owning this on DVD makes up for that. Any time I'm feeling low, anytime I need to feel the Spirit, anytime I wish I were in Church but it's 10:00 pm on a Tuesday night....I put this movie in and I am there.
THIS SONG RIGHT HERE would’ve had grown men in tears, ESPECIALLY SUNG LIKE THIS....? I pray everyone who isn't here today died grateful for this day/experience😢😢😢😢That damn background😖😖😖😖
Aman
I recorded this album on cassette tape(s) and took it with me to Basic Training in Ft.Leonardwood , MO in June of 1972.
It's so great to see it as a movie.
It's absolutely "Timeless"!!!!!!!
Grew up singing in the church in Louisiana, we used to march in just like this !🙌🏾
What a time to be alive... wish I was I was alive during this time..
This is one of the most beautifully filmed documentaries I've seen to date. Aretha's absolutely pristine here.
The Halo of light around everyone's afros... especially the choir director.....this is magnificent filmmaking that honors this once in millineum voice. There is nothing like Aretha singing except maybe sunshine....
That song is fit for the angels
Aretha makes you KNOW you have a soul.
WOW! ❤️
Is that Rev. James Cleveland!! Omg... hold my mule-I’m shouting right now!!!
Two greats in the same room...my my my
@@michellethomas7189 my my my !and I love Rev James Cleveland too.
Her voice chases all the hurt and pain out of your soul!
Yes it definitely does
BEAUTIFUL💐💗💐
Sing it Ree Ree🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
blessed are the people who attended this event to truly hear the voice of God .
This is a tear jerking song it's beautiful Queenie
My my my very touching and what a feeling
My God! The quality, fervor and soulful sound of that voice!! The pure resonance of Queen Aretha’s voice can never be duplicated! On top of that, what a gifted pianist! Wow! She was one of a kind and sorely missed! Rest in Heaven, Queen of Soul!
The Very Sound Of Her Voice @ The 1st Verse Had Me Balling In Tears Of Praise!!! We Miss You INCREDIBLY Mrs. Aretha Franklin!!!!!!!!!
Chills!! Aretha Franklin is the undisputed Queen of Soul!! I mean from the first note just wow!!
love this intro entrance Churrrccchhh
"Wholy Holy" is my absolute favorite Aretha song favorite gospel song PERIODT! I cry every time I hear it!!! There will NEVER be another Queen!!
RIP Charlie Watts there in the background absorbing the magic with Mick Jagger.
This music will make me go to church
JESUS CHRIST is LORD. Believe in him and that he died for you has risen from the dead. Then you are saved!
Yes indeed! This was the most pure recording i havr ever seen in my life. The music is so uplifting, you get so much strenghth from it
There is grace for those who seek it, I believe it in my heart, Amen
This was the best film I saw in all of 2019! One of the best I’ve seen ever!
Wholy, Holy people havvv got to come together. Praise God
They was in point on Hulu !
Glory is all up in the 🏠!!!!!
The higher the octave, the closer it is to heaven
I saw her performance of Amazing Grace too in this film, u know when you are blessed by God when your voice has grown men crying.
One thing I can remember Aretha mention is that. If you are scared of a challenge than don't do it. Her strength and courage open many doors for her. RIp Sister 💜 Soul 💐💐👑. She was very anointed.
When we are born again spiritually we ARE the Church- the bride of Christ the ekklesia of God it has nothing to do with going- to- church and being churched- we MUST be disciples
U can feel the power & anointing in her voice. Watching her wit her 👀 closed playing as she feeling what she is singing is jus amazing! Rest in Power Queen!!!
I love my Gospel Music family, the legendary Southern California Community Choir with the Queen Of Soul and the King Of Gospel, Ms. Aretha Louise Franklin and Rev. James Cleveland! I purchased my DVD 2 days ago. It's absolutely amazing!!!! I actually have seen this movie in the theater 8 times!❤❤❤❤👑👑 RIP Rev. James Cleveland and Ms. Aretha Franklin!!! Gone but never forgotten!!!
I also do to and Miss Clara Ward and her father was in this too sitting right therei too and mick Jagger in the back yes
The director & choir after 7:40! So wonderful
This is the greatest song I found this year. 🙌🏾❤️🙌🏾
The Genius documentary from HULU brought me here. They did a really good job capturing this concert on the HULU documentary.
Amazing Grace Amen and Amen thank you Lord
Amazing Grace Amen Amen and Amen thank you Lord for your Grace hallelujah praise the Lord
chills just chills
I NEED A REAL CHRUCH IN MY LIFE
God's gift...such talent!!
Look how young she was, even all the way up to her accending she aged so well over the years. May she travel safety to her next life, I know she is going to touch more lives in her next life.
Wow. Music from heaven
The one and only Queen Aretha!🎵🎼👎⭐🔥🔥👍🙏
This is old school church.
You can smell the potluck. You can smell that old wooden kitchen smell.
I wish I was born back then...
Chuuch
This is just church. Today's church is a show/concert with an atm in the lobby.
I remember being in the choir and marching in. They really is nothing like the old worship service.
I watched tjis a couple of tines on PBS and its still awesome as tge first time I watched it...like I was right there with her.
I'm here because of Genius: Aretha played my Cynthia Erivo. Needed to see this for myself. Great! What a very unique experience. And randomly the pastor has a wicked lisp.
Queen of Soul ❤️👑
Her entrance was angelic! 💜💜
This film just slipped in & away without much recognition - I couldn't pull my eyes (or ears) away from it. Fantastic watch.
It'll be nominated for an Oscar in January. That should bring it more attention.
8:01, that moment when the camera man captures Aretha and a true image of the one she is singing about in the mural above her. Genius!
It felt like I was back in church Thank you and God Bless The Queen of Soul SIP!
A voice directly from the divine
Beauty Beauty
Maannn that first song I LOOVE it. We Are On Our Way!!
I felt like a little child at Christmas when I saw Chuck Rainey, Cornell Dupree and Pretty Purdie... also Pancho Morales and Ken Lupper. They all played with King Curtis too. It can't get more soulful than that.
OMG that was Simply BEAUTIFUL!! HEAVENLY!!👌🏽
