[DebDaveWski]

Do you two have a C.D. out with this song and some of your other duets for the public to buy? If so, please let me know how I can go about getting it. Thanks... Debbie

[fishfacebabe]

Great job fellas.

[Featureman]

@fishfacebabe Thank you.

[fochilin]

Wow. I really do like this. You've got a great style/voice for all the old hymns. Perhaps you've done a lot of them already for U tube, but if you haven't, you should.

[Featureman]

@fochilin Thank you. Matthew is such a pleasure to do a song with. He has a great singing style. I will try to do more of the Spirituals.

[frowmansurfdude2]

Is it possible to use this music in a film of mine??

[Featureman]

@frowmansurfdude2 The song is public domain. I don't mind if you use it, but check with Matthew for his consent. His channel is linked in the description under the video.

[frowmansurfdude2]

@Featureman Thanks I'll ask him as well!!

[DebDaveDustin]

LOCE IT!!!! :)

[Featureman]

@DebDaveDustin Thank you.

[DebDaveDustin]

@Featureman oops  meant to type LOVE IT! :)

You two are great together, and look like you are really enjoying the song!

It is one of my most favorite religious songs! Thanks for making it even better.

[jawaha75243]

My favorite song in the whole world. I read somewhere that it is believed to have originated as a slave song, sung while they worked in the fields. This song has probably been recorded in more different styles than any other in history, almost any kind of music you like, you will find versions of this song played in it.

[Featureman]

Thanks. There are some wonderful versions of this song.including an instrumental in one James Bond movie and in a Star Wars movie. Andy Griffith sings it in A Face In The Crowd.

[wufwufwufwuf]

Tom still play this love it very well done thx

[Featureman]

Thanks. Matthew is a wonderful singer and player. It is always a pleasure to do something with him.

[StraessleRainer]

I like this movie very much! Quiet a good job! Just A Closer Walk is my favorite spiritual.

[Featureman]

Thank you. It is my favorite also.

[StraessleRainer]

I like this movie very much! Qiet a good job!

[UHC4LYFE]

[markanthony1920]

your welcome , michael buble was the other singer i was talking about , i reckon you guys could do a collaboration together .

[markanthony1920]

beautiful rendition , move over Elvis and Randy Travis .

You guys are also easy on the ears , praise the Lord .

Matt you look like that young American jazz and blues singer who has taken over from Frank Sinatra , don't recall his name directly !

Thanks for the beautiful music , it's inspiring , makes you want to go to Church !

[Featureman]

Thank you very much.

[Featureman]

Thanks so much.

[scjdj33jdjcs]

ty guys i have been lookin for this song in a destinct sound and think you two have come the closest to it yet the only thing that was off for me was i want the guitar to be a banjo I was actually tryin to find a full version of the song that was on the movie "cool hand Luke" and the older man in this vid has just blown me away with his sound but dont get me wrong the younger man has an amazing voice to he got an elvis sound to him once again TY....

[Featureman]

Thank you so much. This song is one of my favorites. I have heard many versions over the years including Cool Hand Luke's which I think was Harry Dean Stanton. Andy griffith did it in Face in the Crowd and it was done instrumentally in several big movies. Thanks again.

[Featureman]

Thank you so much.

[dsanw]

I enjoy your really good cooperation on this video.

Thanks to issy for A-Z sharing, Uli ... :D

Yes he can. Matthew is excellent. He is a wonderful collaboration partner too. He has a lot of great videos. Thanks.

[RedSte]

I thought it was nice. I'm glad to see people still get together for events as such. It truly is a blessing to have a musical voice. Wish I could do one with you both.

[Featureman]

I thank you very much.

[MistofRain752]

My daddy would have loved this! Thanks a million.

[Featureman]

Thanks.

[Silvercracker]

I think you're both great. How about making a DVD? Not Vidacom of course.

[Featureman]

Thank you. I don't think we will be doing that anytime soon. It would be a pleasure to do one with Matthew, but there are lots of things that would make it difficult. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

[ronnieboy2rdot]

Any time I can see your smile I feel I could master that.

[Featureman]

Thanks, Ronnie.

[ronnieboy2rdot]

WOW! How nice to see this video after getting in from my barn. I favorited your piano chord videos so I can learn. I could always read music but could not know how to improvise. Thank you for your easy to learn videos. I hope I can learn at my age. Visit my YouTube site at Ronnieboy2rdot. I increadibly entertained with all of your videos.

[Featureman]

Thanks a lot, Ronnie. Your comment is very appreciated. It is always a pleasure to know we have brought a little happiness to someone. Thanks again.

[BigLon]

Great job guys !

[Featureman]

Thanks, BigLon. Matthew is a pleasure to collaborate with.

I'm going to check out Matthew's channel right now!

[Featureman]

Matthew has many wonderful videos to see and listen to. Thanks for watching this one.

[KamakaTexas]

This is simply wonderful! I love your collabs, Tom, because you choose the most talented folks to sing with. Matthew is fabulous! This is one of my favorite gospel songs because my dad loved it so much. Thanks for posting it!

[Featureman]

Thanks. Your dad and I have similar taste in music. Matthew is indeed fabulous. YouTube is a good old meetin' ground.

[Thriceitup5335]

Rad.

Youtube collabs are the best

[Featureman]

Thanks. It was great to do this one with Matthew.

[matthewlombartmusic]

Thank you so much, Tom, it's a real pleasure singing with you too. You are an excellent entertainer and you make so many people happy with your music and your humour. I consider myself privileged to know you and to have been able to do a duet with you.

Have a really great day & may God continue to bless you in everything you do,

very best wishes always,

Matthew

[Featureman]

Thanks, Matthew. Everything is well here this morning. I also hope all is well there and you feel as strong as you perform. I truly love the rhythm and style of your playing and singing. My best wishes to you.

[oty50elvis]

[featherdude]

[envilblade]

[Featureman]

Thanks. I have always enjoyed this old song too.

[bulbheadmyass]

This is great! Love the singing, the arrangement, love the piano in it, perfect part. --Jan

[Featureman]

Thanks, Jan. You play great piano so double thanks.

[bakersbazaar]

Wow this is awesome, you both sing beautifully! I am blessed! Thank you for brightening my day! So what program do you use in order to get both of you on the video at the same time? God Bless! Kellie

[Featureman]

Hi, thanks. The editing was done using Magix Movie Edit Pro 2004 which is no longer made. It sometimes shows up at amazon or e-bay. It was a $20 program with 10 tracks for video or audio which makes it possible to stack one clip over another and move one to the left or right to show the other video. There are other video editors that will do that also.

[hallbe]

Awesome guys!

[Featureman]

Thanks. Your comment is very appreciated.

[LeeshaHarvey]

That was great! Now I don't feel so bad for skipping church today. Heh. ;-) *****

[Featureman]

Thanks.

[M1sterSax0n]

Fantastic, just brilliant. Made my day. God bless the pair of you.

[Featureman]

Thank you so much. God has blessed me already and I wish the same for everyone.

[cyberwanderer]

Some toe-tapping southern Gospel music timed for a summer Sunday. Nice! You both sounded great! ...At the end, Tom, was that an old mug-shot? XD

[Featureman]

Yes. That was one of my 1980s headshots. I always liked it. It made me look intelligent or something. I never quite duplicated that look in later pictures. Thanks for the comment. It is so much pleasure to do a song I like with someone who likes the same kind of music. Matthew is so excellent.

[Streetcar1743]

I think I will add some organ to this song.

[Nonamesareleft99]

Wonderfully done!

[Featureman]

Thank you.

[aztaison]

How long we were wating another video, and now we get such great song. Thank's Tom for you every video.P.S. especcially for collaboration's

[Featureman]

Thanks. I hope it was worth the wait. i will probably do some more collabs when my schedule allows it. The editing is scares me, but this one was such a pleasure to do.

[TheDB99]

great !!!!

[Featureman]

Thank you, Alex. It is great to hear from you because you know about collaborations. You know there are some requirements for the participants to overcompensate with their performance to make it appear as seamless as possible. Thank you, my friend. I hope the viewers will check your latest videos too including your Wipeout collab.

[liketanyanot]

I always want to listen to this kind of music and Patsy Cline on a Sunday morning while making flapjacks. Come over for brunch! Great job.

[Featureman]

Thanks. I actually made some Sunday pancakes while this was uploading. It does all go together.

[ForgetfulDreams7]

you guys sound amazing together. more collabs of you two!

[Featureman]

Thank you. That could happen...

[suuzzee5]

Both of you guys are awesome and together, you're beyond awesome! Great old hymn and done in that Southern gospel style we all know and love. 10 stars, baby.... 10 !!!

[Featureman]

Thanks, Suuzzee. I must confess I enjoy the old country Sunday meeting songs.

[PvtVaughan4thdiv]

this is a great song and thats commming from an atheist, you two did a great job on this song. 5 stars

[Featureman]

Thanks, Pvt Vaughan. I hope you are safe and well there. Thanks again for your service.

[geyser]

Amen!

[Featureman]

Amen, my friend. Thanks.

[rpbraziliansinger]

Amazing!! 5*

You both are great!!

Hugs

[Featureman]

Thanks a lot, Rafael. I am so glad you like it. You know how much work goes into a collab. It would be great if YouTube had a big 2 hour weekly collab show where we could all become participants in a regular big performance no matter how many miles separate us. Thanks, again, Rafael and a very big hug to you. I hope the viewers check out your videos too.

[abcmole]

Great job! :)

It sure has my toe tappin'.

[Featureman]

Thanks. Matthew is great to collaborate with. I love the rhythmic sound he established for us. Toes are for tappin'.
