[stewartduane]

i always laugh when i hear people make this comment. i understand what your saying though. it's almost like your not "supposed" to like this type of gospel music. But it's for everyone :0). Do you listen to gospel music regularly? If so, what artists do you enjoy?

[MalissaRose]

@phlalanx  I'm a white girl and I love this music too because this is praise!!!!!!!!

I'm sure that these kids came from all types of backgrounds and religious affiliations and its a wonderful thing to see them come together to make the beautiful sounds of gospel! I am however a little biased...I like the older SCC. lol

[dexzion]

Mine as well! I miss songs like this, but I belive the CHOIR sound is coming back!

dex (zm)

[edwinwilliams2008]

Hello Dex!

I hope this amazing choir comes back, because I haven't heard anything from them lately. These are the kinds of songs I miss. Walt Wiltham makes sure that they keep their grades up, and he's a positive influence on them.

With regards, Edwin Williams - Chicago, IL

[dexzion]

Wassup bro. Williams

The Soul Children is very much alive and well today. They are touring all over the world! They still do songs like this. I was referring to CHOIRS in general because you don't hear this sound, the discipline, choir robes, etc. too much anymore. I plan to keep the CHOIR sound going! Walt Whitman is simple one of the world greatest!!!!!

dex (zm)

[edwinwilliams2008]

Good evening Dex. You're right and I agree with you 100%. I've always been a traditional person (although I can go along with the new sound lol), and this is the sound I grew up listening to. It's awesome to see that you're keeping the tradition alive. Your channel and videos are amazing!!! I was gettin' my praise on in my room (lol). I'm happy to be one of your subscribers.
