[laqueriawhite24]

lol I love that part curtis act just like my dumb FIANCE just a complete fool!!!!

[twood7]

but i agree.. Blacks are the best singers. but still. don't be stupid

[twood7]

supermohamed.... don't you think that's a little racist? what if i said, "thumbs up if whites are the smartest?" you might be a little offended right?... ok then. Stop being a moron.

[supermohamed76]

[Beyonce13Knowles]

This is an all time favorite of House of Payne!! I love this song and episode! Great never get's old!

[samarvem]

I always wondered what Glady's sound like doing gosple and I was right,she can raise the roof, i bet she set the church on fire.

[Paynefan]

@TerrealsMyName Sorry noo, Lavan and Cassi Davis are not married in real life, they just happen to share the same last name.

[TerreaIsMyName]

Ella and Curtis is marries in real life , it's cute

[61grammy]

I uderstand that Gladys sang this song at Michael Jackson's funeral at Forest Lawn. this has been a favorite of African Americans for decades. I love to hear this. I would would hear it sang a church when I was very young. It is a negro spiritual.

[Biscuitboy0280]

Must be one of fave versions of this song. Don't know who the guy and the other woman singing are, but them two and Gladys sure sound great together.

[statboy08]

@Biscuitboy0280 The lady is Cassi Davis and the man is LaVan Davis. They are not married or related

[maiyshab]

the end is funny they did good

[MREPS412]

4:48 I love that!

[ThePsalm139]

This is the song Ms. Knight sang at Michael Jackson's burial. She didn't know what she was going to sing. She just let the spirit guide her. It turned out to be very fitting. God bless her and God bless Michael's soul.

[Cuckie]

I know that was something... and Gladys call man by his real name and his stage name Curtis ;^))

[jenard20]

@Cuckie ah his real name is Lavan not chris

[sexxiipiinoyy]

mormon power!

WooHoo!! lol =p

[msnicki215]

I never saws, this episode. Dang!

I knew Ella could sing tho. If you seen tyler's plays you'd know almost anyone he has on this show or in his play can sing. Majority of them were already famous from singing. That's what he does. He gets people that we dont see that often, back into the spotlight. He really reaches out to his people. That's one thing I love about Tyler.

Like Cheryl Pepsi Riley. That woman can singgggggggggggggggggggggggggg­gggggggggggggggggggggg. Always could.

[mzKrissy08]

when this was on Demand my mom got on our nerves playin it back to back LITERALLY every 5 mins...But we really did LOVE IT!!! who knew Ella & Curtis could sing :D

[higgybaby1]

OMG! He called her the Empress of Soul right before this tune. Wow what a treat.

[julington451]

WHAT!!! go ella go ella she can blow lol .... and gladys too lol

[JayManZMomma]

[Flip38III]
