Marion Williams - Swing Low Sweet Chariot

The Washington Post stated that Ms. Marion Williams had one of the world's greatest voices. And in this selection you will hear her singing in a range that has matched that statement. Very few people have ever heard her sing in this soprano range. Most times she has recorded gospel songs that challenge her to sing with power, but in this selection Marion Williams proves that she can sing sweet. I don't know of any of her other songs other than her Christmas album that expresses the true Marion Williams as a soprano like the song, Swing Low Sweet Chariot.

Divine

the control of placement is just ridiculous

[DLuame]

Wow! Simply beautiful.

[Florencione]

This is the best version of the song by a mile. Especially Johny Cash' version is crap.

[alteregoash]

@paulotomaso yeah you nailed it there. Like she's playing a damn piano.

I never heard of her, seems I missed a fine singer! Glad I got this now as it was sent by a friend.

The two high C's at 1:55 and 3:20 are as good as any I've ever heard. She was phenomenal!

Perhaps I'll listen to this on my death-bed. A taste of sweet heavens to come.

[TheAegreene]

This song and other originated in the cotton fields. As they work they sung these kinds of songs. They were messages, but were later gospel songs.

[Igele1000]

I am shure, this woman is the eight world wonder!

[karateslaginnek]

[srubbani]
