In a world now where modern singers, especially so-called gospel singers, belting at each other in an attempt to steal the show, Mahalia, had the unique quality of style. Her manner of singing is so poetic, emotional, quaint, and with SUCH expression. YOU can actually feel the message that she is singing about in the style she is singing. The power to communicate triumphs over the power of vocal might.

@Shnika08 I have to laugh at "Hallie" for this as what you are seeing is something akin to older folk back in the day and still done today: you go to a restaurant, eatery, etc. and you wrapped up your leftovers as a "little snack" for later, ladies conveniently could slip it in their purses. This was before the idea of doggie-bags came about and, during the time of this footage, when it was unthinkable to ask to take leftovers---it would make one seem poor---especially millionairess Hallie.
