Al Jarreau - Go Tell It On The Mountain

[trollkunst]

I was looking on videos of Lars Ulrich playing drums. Suddenly this video poppes up! What is this sourcery?!

[markmarktarmann]

@trollkunst not sorcery. thass da devil's work. it's the hand of the Lord reaching down thru the golden clouds of Heaven to into the Angel Cafeteria to tap Gabriel on his wings telling him go down and tap your keyboard real lightning angel fast, so you thought it was YOU, that did it, so then you 'd have this wack mystery to solve, cept not 4 long cuz you could look up at the no. 1 comment and get some teenage jeezus camp experience 2nd hand and BE SAVED.HELLAJEWYA!. that's my theory anyway.

@Widmerpool99

Try not to be so obtuse and enjoy the music.

A) It was a live TV special w/ at least 8 other soloists. Autocue would be par for the course.

B) He was pushing 70 when this was filmed (67)...he's entitled.

When I was child , I heared this song about Jesus on my tape recorder , but I didn´t understood the message . I grew up in an atheist family . Later I was invited to a Christian youthgroup and heared about Jesus and made personal experience with Jesus. I think , it is very difficult to understand the message , when there is noone to explain. Today I can say : Jesus Christ is born ! For all menkind ! Halleluja !

@deranaloge sketchy 

[japes12345]

[Widmerpool99]

2:45 Pity he needs an autocue. It's not that complicated a song.

[markmarktarmann]

@Widmerpool99 a) xmas carol b) not as commonly done as "silent night etc." c) you sing the bridge......1.2.3.4......we're waiting......

[irishsky005]

This is what makes jazz so awesome.

It takes from its surroundings and makes of it something more.

Jazzed up gospel.. who'd a thought?

[MCGEHEE1]

Yes!

[simplecomplex123]

My God - this man is so amazing - his voice needs to be insured for infinite amount.

[onehumanrace]

@Ritlagaboma - Perhaps because you're from France you're unfamiliar with the history of this song. You may have first heard it by Dolly, but it's an African American spiritual dating back to at least 1865, most likely originally sung by slaves. If you enjoy this version, you'll also probably like the one by Take 6 but I can't find it on youtube.

[TheAcka66]

To bring you into the spirit folks, better groove than this is hard to find in such a common song!

Enjoy!

[peachrox995]
