Morehouse Glee Club Sings I'm Building Me A Home

[@Bravibaritone]

He just about sang me into a shout! David needs recognition for the shape, sound and poise of those young men! This is a TRUE example of 100 years of excellence. Bravo Morehouse College Glee Club!

[@JaxQue03]

I agree! David Morrow was there with Dr. William P. Whalum when I attended in 1984. He was my music appreciation instructor. Great guy.

[@gregwarren1538]

Wonderful song. For all of you youngins that came across this song on Hell On Wheels, this is the opening title song for Spike Lee's classsic 1988 film "School Daze". As powerful now as it was when I first heard it 25 years ago.

[@UmmAlietha]

Not too young...hadn’t heard this in years & re-visited because of the show ;)

[@deondrej.jackson8129]

Greg Warren exactly. I’m 23 but before i pledge my fraternity they showed us School Daze and i fell in love with this Arrangement

[@marianforeman8865]

The Morehouse Glee Club is absolutely awesome. I start every Sunday Morning with this song. Sooo Inspirational !!!

[@marianforeman8865]

THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN. There is no such thing as too much of THIS!!!! @MOREHOUSE!!!

[@RashadAmand]

Yes Lord! I love this song, this arrangement, and most of all, the vitality this Glee Club gave this song! "This Earthlay House, is gonna soon Decay!" Yes Lawd!

[@britdlake86]

I just got chills listening to them.

[@CryptoNewsFlashBuddy]

Fantastic

[@coolkee123]

Ahhhh...this makes me wanna watch School Daze. :)

[@Bravibaritone]

He sings the hell out of this...Sing boy!

[@Adri-hx7vr]

Oh My God, what a wonderful song. I just heard it on a repeat of "Hell on Wheels" and was blown away. Was so surprised to find this so easily.

[@deondrej.jackson8129]

Adrianna Rose because this arrangement by Uzee Brown was featured in the opening credits of Spike Lee’s School Daze

[@power966]

This wonderful song has a powerful message. I built my home and one day my son will and his son will have my home.

[@kevinnesmith4605]

Chills....

[@sdconductr]

I've always loved the versatility of Morehouse Glee Club Soloist, everyone did not always have to have the Big Operatic voice, they just had to know what they were singing about and that's what I believe keeps this ensemble so unique throughout each year its members truly believe in what they are singing.

[@BygSmove]

My soul gotta have!!!!!!! Some where to stay!!!! Yes Lord!!!!

[@LifeLearner28]

I love the look of peace on the white preachers face

[@sean7456]

[@ronnellbankssr3778]

powerful words, first heard it last night watching Hell on wheels

[@chen0466]

Morehouse Takin it to the house

[@marianforeman8865]

@chen0466 This song is so inspirational when I hear it I want to get a hammer and some wood and literally start building a house with my own 2 hands. This Glee Club is absolutely incredible!!!!

[@mdbmdbmvc]

Well done guys!

[@wikkedkillah2351]

It Dosnt matter what color his skin is..what matters is why hes there

[@forestnoise3947]

Wow, strong voices

[@FVSUWildcat]

@coolkee123 the photo montage really takes you back in time...

[@DRJLA1]

This arrangement is awesome. Who is the composer? They have done a masterful job interpreting it....and what more can be said about the lead vocalist......simply wonderful.

[@hopefulagnostic336]

There's no known composer specifically, because it's a traditional spiritual, probably developed from the line-singing tradition/call and response during slavery in the United States. This arrangement was done by Uzee Brown, Jr. though.

[@Maryplambert]

I heard it also on the season finale..too funny

[@mr.1up489]

Big Ole Class of 06

[@mzskyhigh]

@TheMsmother indeed.!!!!

[@Bravibaritone]

[@YassineELAZMI]

[@Swiffkick2000]

Is this the arrangement by Brown?

[@FirstUpPros]

RIH Jaciri Whipper

[@juohnhunt]

jesus christ is lord

[@cosmiccity1459]

Hell on Wheels anyone?

[@blakkwholej]

Yup.... Had to search it on KZbin.... Felt like it immediately became the "comeback" motivation song of the year to me and I don't even listen to gospel music.

[@deondrej.jackson8129]

Nope. School Daze. This arrangement is from School Daze

[@Hyphenated08]

There is INDEED a white Preacher on the podium who is NOT Dr. Massey. But if you describe a light skinned Black person as "Fair Skinned" what does that mean. Fair is not a color; it's a condition. So, as a Dark Skinned person, am I to be considered UNfair?

[@legomaster335]

nick swardsens pretend time lol.

[@WorldWideTVShow]

NOW TELL ME THESE BROTHERS CAN'T SING !
