Love this song! so wrong to kill people because of their race! "You can kill the dreamer but you cannot kill the dream"-I forget who said this but this was a really nice quote
this is so beautiful! As Dr. King said, the arc of justice is long, and it bends toward justice. Don't listen to ignorant hateful comments. Thank you for posting.
sadly as demonstrated by @MankoLKR there is still much hate, ignorance, stupidity, and intolerance in this country. One reason why this song still rings true decade after decade after decade. SOMEDAY, we shall overcome.
My wife and I have been attending the Spellman/Morehouse Christmas Concert (held 1st weekend of Dec. each year) for the last three years. We have been overwhelmed with the music offered by these two groups. I first heard the Morehouse Glee Club on NPR on a MLK celebration some 15 years ago. What an outstanding group they are. By the way, Dr. King sang in the Morehouse Glee Club.
Simply beautiful. Apparently, the three who didn't like this presentation pressed thumbs down by mistake. The clarity of diction, tone, quality, and the undeniable quality of voices make this the best I've ever heard. Awesome!!
Hearing these beautiful voices brings thoughts of there ancestors,kidnapped,enslaved, and after countless hardships, trully overcame.God Bless them all.

I just saw this for the first time, and it's absolutely glorious! I just want to know -- who are the two morons who didn't like it? I mean, really......
The one sidedness of so many peoples' train of thoughts, "The liberals are wrong, the conservatives are wrong, the different races are wrong, the different people are wrong" is exactly what this song wishes wasn't here. I mean, "We'll walk hand in hand"? Unity, people, c'mon! You're the ones that the speaker of the song is talking about overcoming.
Now the sound on this is magnificent. Oh my good, This is a precious performance by these precious gentlemen. Beautiful and heavenly harmony. And just a sight to behold. Thank you so very much for the quality of sound and picture. Thank you!!
we shall overcome does not mean we shall overcome a race. it means we shall overcome hate so that we can walk hand in hand. we are not afraid of the struggles that come with it. though the road seems difficult. deep in our hearts we use our greatest gift. hope. to overcome
@margi52able really? If I recalled it was your phony "grassroots " 10/2 rally that litered the DC mall with all sorts of trash including posters "honoring" MLK. Beck's rally got huge appause for his MLK tribute speech. If anyone is wrong, it's you stupid leftist bigoted hypocrites who kept playing the race card with no proof to discredit the Tea Party. It must suck that Jared's favorite book is "The Communist Manifesto". Just like the ""white supremacist" Ken Gladney who got beat by SEIU.
@margi52able where are we wrong? Or you can't stand that you're the one that could be wrong so you make up bogus claims of racism you know aren't true. Btw, opposing illegal immigration is NOT Mexican-hating. Cheryl Green and four Black college students in Newark were murdered by racist illegal aliens. Reember Remember the Second of November. I can think of no reason the second of November shall ever be forgot. The Tea Party sahll overcome you false claims of racism becuase your agrument sucks
@margi52able Ken Gladney, Glenn Beck,etc We shall overcome the Left's endless hypocritical bigotry and hatred for the very people they claim to support.
As I am facing having to endure over a year of getting Allergy shots once a week& possibly having to for the rest of my life.-along with a myriad of other medical problems-coming upon your Chorus singing so amazingly in perfect union& harmony....blending together with such strong,brave voices.........Hearing your bravery shining through your voices.......is just what I needed today to remind me to never give up-to face my fears & that We CAN be Strong after all-for We SHALL Overcome Some Day
the most stunning performance of this piece i've ever heard. the long phrases, each verse building in intensity, flawless musicianship, and of course the many layers of meaning - too beautiful.
Oh this was one of the most beautiful performances I have ever witnessed. I was in the orchestra and was just blown away by the beautiful job this choir did on the song.
Praise GOD our FATHER in the name of JESUS CHRIST for all eternity! Amen! Awesome and powerful song! thank you for sharing this with me, "J". GOD bless us, everyone. GOOD choice...LOL! GOD bless you always. 8^)>
This is the first time I've heard the Morehouse Glee Club perform. What an inspirational song and what a superb performance!!! I will be listening to more videos. Thank you for sharing their talent and the beautiful song. Please keep it up, it's inspiring. I'm going to forward this onto some friends.
These are the kind of Black Men God want to represent him! These are the original Black Men.

Dear Morehouse students, alums, and other black people:
Here are some tips to help you overcome:
1) Stop saying "axe' instead of "ask."
2) Listen to substantive music instead of rap.
3) Stop smoking crack.
4) Get off welfare.
5) Stop feeling sorry for yourselves.
The only thing standing between you and overcoming is yourselves.
