the song 'steal way' is a very old song, from the days of great oppression in america. long before the civil war. Black People would slip away from their huts, go out into nature & dig holes into the ground. they would climb into the holes so that only their heads were above ground. there they would pray to God for deliverance from oppression of slavery, without being detected. the punishment for being caught was very bad, (whipped to death ect.) does oppression still exist today in america? Y
In reference to the posted statement, that's why i'm So Proud to be BLACK and have no reservations in saying it....Our artists were severely exploited and were undermined during the civil rights years but God,despite the fact,still exalted them with SUPERNATURAL voices that were and are still UNMATCHED by any of their oppressors..
@squirell1952 In every race there are bad people and good people. I'm not saying that slavery was good, but I bet that there were good masters and bad masters.. Not every master was brutal as not every german was nazi.
@Poprostujaola: I'm sorry--but there is NO such thing as a "good master." Holding someone captive is BAD, regardless of the "disposition" of the captor.

Consequence: white people are inferior to albino people and the most superior are spiders!!!!! So I advise to all racist to go and find the nearest spider , submit to him/her and to serve him/her the best way that the this racist guy is able. Good luck.
express the melanin-producing genes, thereby conferring a greater or lesser concentration of skin melanin. Some individual animals and humans have very little or no melanin in their bodies, a condition known as albinism.
Melanin is a pigment that is to find everywhere in nature, being found in most organisms (spiders are one of the few groups in which it has not been detected). In humans, melanin is the primary determinant of skin color. It is also found in hair, eyes and inner ear. Although, in general, human beings possess a similar concentration of melanocytes in their skin, the melanocytes in some individuals and ethnic groups more frequently or less frequentlly
IM no racist, but no white people can ever sing like this, and its breaks my heart 2 hear Nat King cole was asked 2 hide black musicians behind a screen. Racism has no place in art at all
I totally agree with you,no white person can sing like this, white people are unable to produce voice so deeply resonant, so smooth like a velvet, the "color of black voices" is unique. God blessed black people with this gift and I admire them.
Yes racism has no place in art, but!II It has no place anyvhere. Nor in public life, nor in hearts and minds of people. People are unequal only according their deeds (bad/good action) and not according to amount of melanin in their bodies.
Beautiful. Nat King Cole's show lasted only a couple of years. He pulled the plug when the network ordered him to hide his black musicians behind a screen.
@wwleslie Got goosebumps reading your comment, especially the last part.
Ordered huh? Glad he pulled the plug. I wondered how the network asked him. 'Mr. Cole, we the network, were wondering if you could hide your coloured musicians behind a white screen?' Maybe Nat King Cole thought 'That's it.' And said no.
Find it hard to picture him telling his musicians 'Guys, you play wonderfully but I have to hide you behind a screen?'
Mother Mahalia is awesome, the way that she sings, and the songs she sung is when gospel music was real gospel music. The Lord anoited mother, I can STILL (54 yrs. after they sang this song) feel the anoiting in late 2011. Love the gospel (singers) musuc of today, but none can match mother Mahalia Jackson.
@mrhankcollins honestly, i must say, i felt same way...anytime i listened her great voice singing...i first heard my early age in 1965 and i was deeply touched and i am still...
Thanks alot so much for uploading, i am pleased and thankful to listen this wonderful piece of art and music, a great singer and wonderful Lady that walked among on earth for praise the Lord in such and peaceful pleasent way...Im sure, she is welcome in the Lord´s home and sings on ...
Mother Jackson will always be one of my favorite singer . Now this is sacred and gospel music.. Sung from the heart. Nat King Cole and Mother Jackson together as a duet: who would have ever thought! Splendid rendition!!!
Geez! I had forgotten how GREAT her voice was. GREAT! I also had forgotten why I can't listen to her. She makes me want to be religious. I was raised on Mahailia.
@jeffbazell1 I can only imagine! I first heard of her when I was 6, I remember my dad playing her records every friday night. Im 23 and I still listen to her to this day. "Train up a child....Proverbs 22:6"
Ich hörte Sie erstmals mit ca. 14 Jahren. Heute bin ich 52. Ich stehe auf Blues, Rock, Hardrock etc. Aber in welchem Musikgenre man sich auch umhört. Eine so gewaltige Stimme habe ich nie wieder gehört. Sie war und ist unerreicht, obwohl ich auch Aretha Franklin liebe.
@Guido220659 Ich hoffe, du liest diese Zeilen. Es gab noch mindestens 2 Frauen, die es mit ihr aufnehmen konnten. Aber Mercedes Sosa aus Argentinien starb meines Erachtens letztes Jahr im Oktober; beachtenswert wären die Lieder"Solo les pidp a dios"und"Gracias a la vida".Die Andere hieß Alexandra, verstarb mit 27 Jahren bereits ca.1968, hier kann ich dir " Zigeunerjunge"," Dunkles Wolkenmeer" und "Solenzara" empfehlen. Und dann gab es 1980 eine Sängerin namens Kitty in Hamburg, die war super.
@Jaguarweibchen Deine Antwort hat mich gefreut. War leider sehr beschäftigt und bin deshalb nicht dazu gekommen Deinen Artikel zu kommentieren. Mercedes kenne ich dem Namen nach, hatte aber bisher noch nicht die Zeit in den Genuss Ihrer Musik zu kommen. Alexandra ist mir neu, wahrscheinlich aufgrund Ihres frühen Dahinscheidens. Ich werde mir aber gerne mal Deine vorgeschlagenen Titel der beiden Damen anhören, um mir selbst ein Urteil zu bilden. Ich Danke Dir für Die Info. Gruss Guido
@Guido220659 Diese Kitty hat, wie Mahelia Jackson ihre Gospel in der Kirche gesungen.Sogar ohne Mikro und ohne Verstärker, sie war laut und klar zu verstehen bis in die hinterste Ecke. und sie sah aus, wie ein Engel mit langen, blonden Haaren und blauen Augen - nur sie saß in einem Rollstuhl....
Been listening to her since I was a child, her singing is so great and she feels the Lord as she sings. There will never be another one like her, never. Thank you for being here during my life time.
We sang this song in a mens community choir show put on by the local high school, called "For Men Only". We sang this. It was amazing. Of all the songs we sang that night, this was the best.
Now, I am sure, God IS black... smile... I feel like a poor white child sneaking into the back of His church, to feel His presence through these two incredible singers' voices. Amazing! and totally graceful.
@signlaw God's colour depends on who invented him.... It's just a song...beautifully sung by two of my favourite artists whose colour I never knew as a kid....... and nelson Riddle in charge of the orchestra? Brilliant!
Just got to perform an arrangement of this song at my school, but we barely made a scratch compared to that beautiful, and empathetic voice of Ms. Jackson. This was so healing to listen to...
It is so nice to see such classy black folk on the screen like that (yes I am black thank you) and the black people today I see on the screens are so offensive, ignorant, and inappropriate for youth.
she is one of the greatest singers ever. true woman of God who was faithful, obedient to her pastor and audience. we need more fine, classy, and genuine gospel singers /women like mahalia .
@Professional bass player 310 lbs: Your size has nothing to do with it, you are a person who has a love for music, right, and a heart. That is who you are truth.
Moments like these are common in the lives of many of us, as these folks were our families, touch by certain lives in this Country, and the many hurts, harms, and daily livings have hewed in us the songs, the spirits, the trials of life, which many of you know as Jazz, Gospel and Blues. Amen.
Now this is singing from the soul! Mahalia Jackson is one of my favorite Gospel singers. To pair Nat King Cole with Mahalia Jackson is genius! Thank the Good Lord for them.
That was beautiful. Even though Nat King Cole sang secular music such as Jazz, his roots was gospel music, because his father was a minister. So I'm sure he felt right at home singing with Mahalia. She was so deep rooted in the Lord and it radiated when she sang. She refused to sing secular music when she was offered money to do so, and she even divorced her husband because he wanted her to sing secular music. Mahalia was a deeply religious woman who was totally committed to serving the Lord.
I am a profeesional country bass player I love all music.....Im also 6'4 310 pounds.........And I jsut cryed liek a baby....Im am now and forever a fan of mahalia jackson
Oh how wonderful! Mahalia's singing moved me very much when I first heard her sing when I was a child and I have been a fan ever since. Thanks for watching and leaving your comments. God bless.
Mir erging es wie dir, als sie 1972 starb, spielten meine Eltern zu ihrem Gedenken eine Schallplatte von ihr. Ich war vier und sie fasziniert mich bis heute unverändert!
Unglaublich, mir ging es genau wie dir, ich war vier, als ich sie das erste Mal auf einer Schallplatte hörte, da war sie gerade gestorben. Keine Sängerin hat mich je wieder so berührt!
@mrhankcollins Yes, she'll make you cry. I've never known a gospel voice like hers. Always have to have a box of tissues when I hear her -- even when I was a kid I used to cry. It may be "old school" gospel but she sings the REAL gospel music that deeply touches the soul. Conte,porary gospel lacks the depth of old school gospel and I'm not a fan of it.
@mrhankcollins this is what i raised on...love mahalia jackson...always have & always will....people always say that she sang funeral songs, but i don't care. I love her voice. makes you have goosebumps....
@mrhankcollins I love your comment. Mahalia has a way of reducing the biggest of men to tears. I often wonder how a woman with such a powerful voice and presence can be so graceful. I am so grateful that we have outlets that will allow us to continue enjoying timeless classics.
@mrhankcollins My mom use to talk about her when I was little, years later I bought a Christmas cassette of hers after listening to her I WAS HOOKED love her voice, love her voice. So I know what you say.
@mrhankcollins You are not alone. I cried when I heard her sing 'In The Garden'. Her physical body is long since dead, but her legacy lives in on. From the grave, she still inspires and brings awe before the presence of the living God.
:'( im only 13 ...and im just so moved! and im half filipino and half american. this kind of music speaks to me. sometimes i feel like i want to cry..and i just cant stress on my peers that they need to be thankful for what they have. and to the women who sing this..god bless! ive never heard of this song till a week ago...my choir ensamble is singing it. plz look up emusinger and go to the 4th video. hlhs choir is singing. i hope i please you with this song:) this is truly spiritual music
Amazing!! The annointing upon this sister still yet lives.. Praise Most high! Thank you Ms. Jackson for serving our God to the fullest with your gift of song.. Praise YHWH!
This is simply amazing footage.....2 Icons...1 set, .....She was very very much a vocal powerhouse, but knew how to put out what was needed to get the mssg across, singing with character and the chemistry between the both of the was great.e was gracious host...
@weedunn How is she a jazz singer did she sing it when she was younger?? So far I've only heard her sing bluesy-type of gospel music and that developed into jazz. She sings gospel though not jazz.
@binstence Thank you for your comment. My mother was in tears when she read your messeage. We are living in a time where songs like Trouble of this World and Amazing Grace and Precious Lord helps us through. We are so glad that your birthday ended up well. If you know of someone who can help my mother with her music just text on her page. May God bless u and your family.

@mrhankcollins I love your comment. Mahalia has a way of reducing the biggest of men to tears. I often wonder how a woman with such a powerful voice and presence can be so graceful. I am so grateful that we have outlets that will allow us to continue enjoying timeless classics.

@mrhankcollins My mom use to talk about her when I was little, years later I bought a Christmas cassette of hers after listening to her I WAS HOOKED love her voice, love her voice. So I know what you say.

@mrhankcollins You are not alone. I cried when I heard her sing 'In The Garden'. Her physical body is long since dead, but her legacy lives in on. From the grave, she still inspires and brings awe before the presence of the living God.

Nat King Cole: Jazz Giant, velvet voiced maestro - but look at the deference he shows to Miss Jackson.
Awesome!
Long live Nat, long live Mahalia - both have stolen away to Jesus. Rest in His arms.

@weedunn How is she a jazz singer did she sing it when she was younger?? So far I've only heard her sing bluesy-type of gospel music and that developed into jazz. She sings gospel though not jazz.
