But he does sound so wonderful! I like this tempo...Still one of my favorites..... I did see Bishop in 2008 at the fundraiser for Rev Coley in Oakland at the Love Center Church...That was my big wish to attend Love Center Church just once... Also saw him in 2010 at the Kennedy center, DC.
I love his introduction for the song, "....it's just a little old fashioned." This song still grooves too hard to be considered old fashioned. I first heard this song in the late 80s when I was 5 and the original, faster recording of this song has a tight groove. I like this "baptist" version here too LOL. RIP Bishop Hawkins you left us with a lot of messages to apply.
I remember singing this song when I was young in the choir at church...this is indeed one of my favorite songs from Bishop Hawkins..he's home now dancing on the streets of gold...R.I.P
This is good. I think Walter slowed it down because he was the writier of the song and wasn't the original singer and two he's not as young as he used to be. So to last through the song with enough energy to last he slowed it down.
Hope this brings no offense....but I'm used to this song being more live. They are a little too laid back for a shout. I mean, they can sing beautifully but........you know, it doesn't kill me like the original. It was..........okay
There is NO DOUBT about that. I remember being about 12 or 13 when that hit. I had never heard ANYTHING like it before or since. It is on another level in terms of music. The whole Hawkins family and the Love Centre Choir is one of Gods greatest gifts to music -period. Who has their resume of top quality & innovative music. Starting with Edwin Hawkins!
Never heard this song until 2 weeks ago. My new favorite!!!!!!"
