  • Two pieces of constructive criticism: 1) Buy better recording equipment, 2) southern drawl or not, all the "to"s should not be 'ta's...it sounds ta weird.

    Having said that, this is probably my favorite Live recording of this song on youtube. I've watched it multiple times, fav.ed it, and I find myself continuing to come back...any chance this is available for purchase?

  • @dragontoothdw This recording was made by a parent with their personal camera not a professional recording. 

  • Just a quick note for those who don't understand this song is performed in "character" so the southern drawl is done on purpose.

    If you would, please also listen to more performances from this chorus - one of the top rated High School Choirs in the State.

  • @Imustbeemo0 This song was from the DEEP SOUTH!! What are you talking about. It's a style and stop being so critical of these children. You should applaud them for travelling to a foreign country and representing us since I am from the South. Watch the movie!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sure that since you critique you also can sing. There is no talent in passing judgement. oftentimes the person judging cannot perform. It is obvious that this is the case for you.

  • Keep your southern drawls out of gospel music, please.

    That just sounds horrible. Not sure if that's interpretation or just lazy conductor, but oh man.

    But on a positive note, the blending was good.

    Also, to send the message of a song properly, it must be sung properly. Bad vowels can distort words and can warp pitches sometimes. Just saying.

  • Amen!!

  • its more about the message than it is the performance. its gospel, the song is sang to worship, not to please critics.

  • gahhhhh those are some of the worst vowels ive heard from a choir. "down deh the riverrrr deh praaaaay"

    and its way too slow.

  • Wonderful, good job :)
