I've Read the Back Of the Book-The Cathedrals

ernie hasse is a wannabe

I know what the ending note is, but he is FLAT. I don't understand what you're trying to disagree with. He was off pitch, that was my point. I know what the note was supposed to be, but he was out of tune, pitchy, flat, off pitch - whatever term you would like to use - he wasn't singing in tune with the accompaniment or the other singers. There's no disagreeing with the fact that he was out of tune.

I miss Roger. =(

R.I.P Roger

Wow does anyone know what Ernie hits at the end of this one? Its sky high

[metanoeo1]

@victoryopop He sings a flat C#. I'm sure it's not supposed to be flat, but it is.

[rickigr40]

@metanoeo1 that sign means sharp not flat

[metanoeo1]

@rickigr40 I know that # means sharp and that b means flat. They taught me that in elementary school and solidified it in music theory in college and graduate school. My point was that he was supposed to sing a C#, but he was flat.

[rickigr40]

@metanoeo1 I disagree...I've heard this done by another group...same ending note

[Sing4More]

I just love this song! I love the part at 2:27 where the group is singing "I've read the book" and George Younce sings "I've read it, too". Subtle things like this are what I believe really made George stand out. I heard Bill Gaither say something like -George Younce was a great singer with a low voice.

[lonemapper]

Ernie blasts that ending!

[bignathan15]

The best part of this song is the part where George sings real low "We Win" gotta love the Cathedrals. I always wait for that part. haha

[Filipedry]

I Love this song.

Miss MiahJames...The clue to dealing with grandma is to start to pray for her...One old gospel song says.."Open My Eyes That I May See". Pray that God will open her eyes. He wants to. A Loren Talley's song, "David Did Dance" The music is also a gift from the Lord and to Him! The key to our Christian walk is to LOVE others as He loved us. We can't do that and be critical. "Let go and let God have His wonderful way, your burdens will vanish, your night turn to day." When we pray God can work.

i love this song.....

but i'm also into heavy christian rock

and my grandma says any electric guitar and drums is evil...but all of her music (cathedrals...gaithers etc) use both....she contradicts herself so much....

anyone have any advice that i could tell her to show her when she contradicts herself?

PS. there IS such a thing as christian Rock, Rap, Metal, Metalcore, Screamo, Techno and any other genre u can think of

[Matoro48837]

finally someone else who thinks the same way i do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

srry but no advice only to stand tall and firm on your beliefs.......i believe God does not care the styling of vocals or music....it's all the words!

[bignathan15]

See if the band and yourself use it to the Glory of God there is nothing wrong with it.

Satan corrupted the music so that people think it is wrong. God said make a joyful noise unto the Lord. Hope this helps

[iceman44sgm]

@Miahjames488 Just take her to Psalm 150 - Praise the Lord!

[ExileTherin]

@Miahjames488 hand her a page with the words to a Christian rap or rock song, something like "Cling To You" by Trip Lee, (rap) or "Believer Indeed" by Petra, (rock) and let her guess what genre it is! :)

[tnchrmd1]

I miss Roger...he was such a sweet man and such a friend

[bluesonata56]

The Cathedrals - truly one of the best gospel groups ever! I love them - and miss them!

[smn76]

I love the Cathedrals dearly, but I have to question Scott Fowler's trustworthiness, because it's obvious he's a thief. He stole that jacket from Coach Bobby Knight!

[billbogan718]

@smn76 .... HAHAHAHA!! That is HILARIOUS!!!

[chipperfan52698]

@smn76 Huh? I never heard about that one. Please explain.

[greatlakesfan1972]

@smn76 You're kidding right?

[victoryopop]

Ernie really surprised me on his one... I've seen a bass cover his ear to hit a low note but never a tenor to hit a high note... you go ernie!

[MegaAspen]

True enough, I noticed that too. Never seen Ernie do that in concert or on video...not to say he hasn't done it before...

[RandomWisconsinLuver]

awesome.................

[lonemapper]

THE BEST!!!
