He's got the whole world
(Spiritual)

In this recording:

Derek Lee Ragin, countertenor
Moses Hogan, piano

I wanted to post something out of the ordinary content of my channel. Chances of finding a score for a spiritual that has been performed at least fifty thousand different ways are virtually nil. Not to mention that the piano transcription is exclusive to this recording. So, I grabbed the only available score online that showed the basic melody (though in a different key) and filled in the piano passages with some slides. I ended up using my sons' photos, too. You can see my two little monsters towards the middle of the video. :)

As far as the mismatch score: I couldn't care less about the complaints and certainly won't reply to any observations regarding the key, pitch, etc. I hope that those individuals do realize that it is not such a great discovery to spot the difference between the score and the recording. Just deal with it if you have any musical sense. Or do me a favor and send me your own perfect transcription that fits this recording. I'd be more than happy to share it with the world. I only represent the recording with what I have.

He's got the whole world in his hand

He's got my brother and my sister in his hand
He's got my father and my mother in his hand
He's got the whole world in his hand

He's got the little bitty baby in his hand
He's got the whole world in his hand

He's got the whole world in his hand
He's got everybody here in his hand
He's got the whole world in his hand

ohhh the baby! I'd alredy seen some pictures of your kids on FB!

you've got some nasty temper ;) I sometimes wish to post the same warning on my channel (sighs....)

[civileso]

Hehe :)) I have to take my precautions. It saves me a lot of annoyance. I remember that you did something similar on one of your videos recently, on a milder note, if I'm not mistaken.

[margotlorena]

ahah yes, I wrote; If you have any complaints, don't let me know ;)

[civileso]

Yep! That's the one!
