[ladyluv421]

Yes I can identify with songs. I am thankful to God for my mom with that extra love she showed assist in rearing my two boys.....I would not trade her for worldly pleasures.

[nightmare5660]

THIS YOUNG LADY CAN SANG! I had the chance to meet her

a couple of years ago in DC, at BET, w/Bobby Jones.

I was a bit surprised as to her attitude, not nice.

I pray she remains HUMBLE.

[Thkmra]

@nightmare5660 Wow, that is certaintly surprising!! Then again we do have to take into account, Christian, or NOT, there are times which we may just be having a difficult time!!

[mobetter61]

[debgirl12000]

@mobetter61 Incredible vocalist! I know how you feel. I miss my grandmomma. She died of cancer when I was 16, but my mothers mom is alive. She is 91 and still going strong and my husbands grandmother is 103 years old! She has outlived her husband and all of her five kids except 2! This song makes me cry and think about my daddys mom who loved me unconditionally! She was from South Carolina and such a down to earth lady. I miss you Momma Belle!

[TheGraduation11]

i just caught chills all over my body when she sung that last verse again

[meeka276]

[DFRESH1987]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH 2:51

[JalissaB]

Its the little things that my grandma does that makes me happy. Thank God she's still here with us. But when that day comes (hopefully no time soon) im gonna miss those hands

[JalissaB]

Omg some people just have no brains! When she gets to Heaven she's going to look for Grandma's hands because OBVIOUSLY (like someone else commented) THERE'S COMFORT ON GRANDMA'S HANDS! Gotta love Grandma!

[shamicacooper]

[BiancaLonden]

When you get to heaven you'll be looking for grandma's hands? What does that have to do with Jesus??? I'm going to heaven because I love the LORD an for myself NOT for grandma! P.S. Love ya grandma LOL

[sanggurl16]

@BiancaLonden There is comfort in Grandma's hands. You missed the point!

[BiancaLonden]

@sanggurl16 I get the point sweetie

[devore504]

@BiancaLonden i am gonna pray for you and your family since you don't get this song

[l4tee7years]

on sundays best final there was a gospel rap duo that performed. what was there name?

[MrBrian1202]

I cudnt stop rewindin the end! Lol

[tlgcarter]

2:51-3:07, need I say more WOW

[Chocolate5249]

i no kirk that dnt make no since lol goooo yanna

[Jimmyking17]

Sunday best went downhill after her. Seem as the people aren't putting more of the spirit into their singing, no personality, and an anointing that is barely felt. They could really take lessons from this sister...

[sanggurl16]

@Jimmyking17 What about Leandria Johnson. You can't tell me she can't sing!

[Jimmyking17]

@sanggurl16 Yeah, but I'm just talkin' about the show in general.....

[TheNursey13]

She killed that ending!!!!



[candicewhiskeyd]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh weeeeee.........she KILLED IT!!!!!!!!!

And there you have it Mr. Franklin.....You asked for it.....Grandma's Hands....:-)

[MrBLUGOLD09]

SHE SUNG THE MESS OUTTA THIS SONG...I DIDNT REALLY LIKE IT ON MADEA BUT HOMEGURL WOW'D ME

[butchbabie]

What is with people making fun of others.

It doesn't matter what color you are.

The people that think that they can sing like this try out for Sunday Best.

God has blessed her with a gift of song and Y'Anna is able to sing like no other.

God will take care of people that make fun of others. If God wanted us to be all the same he would have created us to be the same. God bless those who don't like this video and if you really dislike it then don't watch

[0711peaches]

@yaletenor that is Small Fire from comicview when I seen her I was like I can't take this...I was smh what is she doing there acting like that. Especially the way she be acting on tv. Lol!

[yaletenor]

I can't take the girl at 1:57!!!! LOLOL!!!! And they showed her like 3 times! I'm done! LOL!

[kqm83]

@yaletenor LMAO!!!!! I ALWAYS say the same thing when I watch this clip!!! Thought I was the only one! HAHA

[yaletenor]

I am maaaad at the brother at 3:14 about to start shoutin' off of grandma's hands!! LOL!! black folks are hilarious...we will shout off anythang! lol

[mywurld1985]

@yaletenor lmbo yes...i was touched til i seen that...i bust out laughing

[Donnyjells]

@yaletenor Sorry, it was supposed to read " I can understand where you are coming from". The reason why I'm laughing is because at the time this episode came on TV, I asked myself the same thing. Hey, maybe is just the anointing in the room making him feel like that, at least that's my hope...lol

[yaletenor]

@Donnyjells LOLOL!!!

[dblair1952]

She is by far the BEST of ALL seasons

[cenafaye]

love you y'anna



[0514Mel]

Good god she did her thing

[Jams98]

[Taleasha28]

Only people who wouldn't love this voice and the anointing flowing are the ones who are haters and the ones not working or praising our so awesome and almighty God> Now go one and tell that!!!!!!! lol!!! *GET IT Y'ANNA!!!!!!

[44aeropostale44]

She blew me away. I didnt like her when the competition first started but after hearing this I love her

[obigrod]

I don't know why i did not like this initially,but upon a @nd glance Y'anna tore this up like nobody's business.Much respect babygirl.Guess u just werent my 1st choice during the competition,but you've gained a fan.

[justterry417]

[tlgcarter]

Look at Kirk @ 3:03, he had to walk off cuz Y'Anna killed that verse

[aaustin258]

now Yanna makes me wish for my grandmother which I never meet she passed away before I was born but I had substitutes and I really understand that song and y'anna knows what it is like so even if I don't get to heaven I just want to see my grandmother

[mszsharp702]

[mistaclardy]

The two people who dislike this video must be on dope!!!! This woman is a BEAST!!!!!

[ontrasr]

i <3 it

[scenecharl]

I'm a dancer and she makes me wanna wack myself in a tilt, dancers would know what i mean owwwww!!!

[jaydiarae]

Y'Anna Crawley is the MC Lyte of gospel music.

[16ondablack]

@jaydiarae Huh? explain

[mcms14]

i still cnt get over this. she is just truely blessed.

[highdephdancers]

Tina and Erica Was Looking Like Y'Anna was gone take their place

[dovecocca]

anything that can bring you closer to God don't have to say God a hundred times in the song The story of Jesus can be told in many ways and any song is not gonna send you to Heaven or Hell

[demonaitorxxx]

who sees the guy at 3:13 having a ceaser?

[Ajilla316]

Kurt needs not to do this....3:11

[shawtywantathug1]

@Ajilla316 lmao he looked so gay

[jtbabygirl21]

@Ajilla316 LOL !!!! Right!!

[GDUBasl1221]

@Ajilla316 hahahaha! YES! hahahaha!!

[dbarksd1]

If this girl didnt sing this song idk who did!!!! I cant wait until i can sang like her or even better to sing with her.

[butchbabie]

I think we tend to forget god does not judge others. It is people who judge each other.

No it is not a gospel song per say it does say"when I get to heaven I'll be looking for grandmas hand."

So please please just leave it alone and let god have the final say people

[Naudiaism12]

GOOOG LORD THATZ ALL I CAN SAY

[uhohitsjazzo]

bahahahaha kirk franklin face at the end is tooo funny.

[lordoftheboondocks]

My grandma is still here in the earth and i love this song because it takes me back to my teenage years at Holy Convocation in Ohio every summer. The song itself may not be gospel, but the meaning and the message is something every believer in my generation and older (well over 40 years old) can relate to. I love Y'anna!

[trywillard]

She did very well on this song but it is not a gospel song so why is she singing it in a gospel competition and in churches across the country? How does a secular artist win a gospel competition. Something is wrong with this picture.

[Mar2009zx]

I hear you!!! It seems like Sunday's Best is more of "whatever pleases the crowd" and "brings in the highest ratings for the show". Many folks (including CURRENT gospel artists) forget what gospel stands for in the Bible. It is the RE-TELLING of the story of JESUS CHRIST. It is not all about popular beats and catchy lyrics! All I have to say is Christ will one day ask these "so called gospel artists" why they made HIS STORY all about them...Every knee shall bow and tongue confess Jesus is Lord!

[Dimplez816]

OOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGG­GGGGGGGGGGGGGG THIS GIRL IS A GOPSPEL BEEASSSSTTTTTTT 4 this song!!!!! WHOOOOHOOOO!!!!

[AdoptedSoul]

That face she had at 1.07 is the same face I had when she sung that line and this song like that. Still in shock. Mr. Bill Withers should be proud.

[imchosen21]

Who wrote the title of the song 4 this vid?!? It's GRANDMA!!! Not Crandma... Smh! Lmbo

[yesniyah]

@imchosen21

I always meant to change it but never did. Changed it now so, there. lol

[MrShanetopher]

@imchosen21

Bill Withers

[ketabeta1]

Lordddd can can sangggggg

[ladyslove89]

It's something about them Grandma hands! chile!

[Mar2009zx]

she tore that song up...all the way up...lol

huh! Kirk is a hard pill to swallow; nevertheless, I'm glad he made her sing that last note again;-)

[butchbabie]

What is wrong with people today?

I would love to see all haters get-up on stage and sing like that.

God does not like UGLY!

[shadev12345]

She can sing !

[alyess50]

[nanayize]

Yesssss....

[tory09100]

DANG IT DANG IT DANG IT I JUS LOVE WEN KIRK MAKE HER HIT THAT LAST LINE ONE MO TIME HER BEST PERFORMANCE ON SUNDAYS BEST I THINK!!!!! GO GIRL!!!SMH!!!

[makeupcrazi]

[ladyslove89]

@makeupcrazi it's because it's a different arrangement! And I prefer this one better!

[yungdrumma808]

I just noticed she put 5 gospel artists in shock.....Tina, Erica, Bebe, Kirk and Byron Cage standing in the front row

[aivlys16]

The young gentlemen 2:56 is a trip*Whoo!!

[gospeldaizure1]

[drudafuture1]

[crystalandclear]

Good GOD A-mighty...she sang that song!

[Changification1]

Tell me why 2:51-3:11 always has me tearing up, and I didn't even know my grandma like that lol.

[crystalandclear]

@Changification1..... I am with you on that one...I did know either set of my grandparents, but I felt that!

[11thotam]

0 dislike im surprised there is always a hater around but the whole world knows she killed this

[11thotam]

i would have gave up if i was in competition with her after she sung this song there was no chance for the rest she already won girl is COLD

[chauntele1]

@Blubb3rtier It was a white woman in the first season, Emily Gomez. She made it to the top 4. But idk maybe white people don't audition

[letmespeak2u]

[Blubb3rtier1]

[UniversalBalance2981]

I love the way she sings this song. My grandmother raised me mymother died when i was an infant and this gives me fond memories of her.

[yesniyah]

The guy in the white shirt at 3:13 always cracks me up. He's feeling it, but his face is like.......I can't take it!

[PalinLW]

@yesniyah You got me watching this now just to see his face so I can laugh lololol
