Summertime and I Feel Like a Motherless Child by Mahalia Jackson

[@laprietta54]

Who's listening to this amazing soul in 2024 ❤

[@derryjones244]

I first heard Mahalia when I was about 15 and never forgot her. I'm 86 now and thanks for this reminder.

[@nickandchrismom]

Bless you!!

[@rat_smacker7]

For two months I laid awake searching for this video. I remember watching it with my mother before she passed. I can rest easy now.

[@michellemurry2180]

That's so beautiful. 🖤🖤🖤

[@JustMe-144k]

I remember this from Tyler Perry’s play the little girl was singing it.

[@ismail357]

Lost my mother a few years back. I know what you mean with this beautiful song done by this soul stirrer

[@justinanderson9107]

What a lovely memory of your mother & such a fantastic song. Holds such great sentiment.

[@iradread]

I swear at least once a year I search for this video. I feel so blessed to be able to enjoy the soulful singing of the great Mahalia. ❤❤

[@polakhomie]

Let KZbin NEVER delete this clip, for it will bring prosperity to us all. Amen.

[@michellemurry2180]

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤...Chills

[@marywiegand2050]

Amen!!!🙏To God be the Glory🙏

[@Tasmanaut]

Her voice and sincerity is almost enough to convince a non-believer that there must be a god. She was a miracle

[@DereBear]

I don’t know where I stand religiously but she makes me believe I have yet to find the answer I’m looking for, not that there just isn’t one.

[@RobertBrown-vt6li]

Mahalia Jackson had one of the greatest voices in the history of music regardless of genre.R.I.P. Mahalia Jackson.

[@nathanjasper512]

Never heard anything except this video but wow she really kills it.

[@JohnathanRodericks-p6u]

She is for sure a great singer I love soulful songs like this it makes me emotional

[@nextwave1314]

I’m over 60 now, but I remember listening to Mahalia Jackson compulsively in a tiny town in Greece. Soul needs no translation.

[@gum1734]

I can’t believe this is my great aunt her voice is so beautiful my family gathered to watch the movie it was good

[@garrygivens1680]

What movie was this from?

[@malasak]

Easily one of the most beautiful and saddest song i have ever heard

[@silviafigueroa8813]

Sad and most beautiful

[@johndymond1605]

Even today this is beautiful.

[@karimuzi]

Here because of euphoria staying because of the greatness🙌

[@craigo1962]

this lady is real, in every note she sings.

[@yordanosg.7926]

Her performance is sooo deep, core gripping, and flavorful!! Words can't explain it.just simply breath taking ♡

[@garyison1818]

I listen to this song with my eyes closed... this is definitely deep.

[@goddess1del128]

Yordanos G. truly.

[@latoniabell1244]

its not a performance

[@skippyd89]

Mahalia was always an elegant, graceful singer who sang with clarity, simplicity, and truth.

[@sarahperkins2108]

Wow this came across my screen. I thought Mahalia only sung gospel music. This is fabulous. 😁

[@Thompson010Smith]

Hello Sarah How are you doing today?

[@Arborist1959]

Soul in America comes around once in a while! Because America has one, This music/ artist stirs the soul and this music will always be ours, just Like Mahalia will always be ours!

[@kngiht84]

Modern opera singers can learn a thing or 2 about chest voice from this clip.

[@vnonkwinn6884]

DEDICATED TO MY ALL MY ANCESTORS - BE BLESSED BE FREE .

[@ShawnPlusOne]

That voice was something she was the greatest most soulful singer. I love this song no matter if I'm a crybaby after I hear it..

[@Cypeadelic1]

Some things are so beautiful and timeless that they can only be done once.

[@muggedinmadrid]

What a powerhouse voice. What souldering passion. You can see how artists like Mrs Jackson paved the way for vocalists like Aretha Franklin and Whitney Houston. You can also hear Bessie smiths influence on mahalia style of singing.

[@m.antoniosims342]

A truly awesome woman of God. Totally engrossed with the love of God and the joy of singing as if there is no one there but her & the Lord. This rendition is so eloquently dashed with soulful quietness & souring power that only Mahalia could deliver. Delicious!!

[@Sfrockergirl88]

One of the best versions I’ve ever heard

[@thelonious2010]

Best versions of this song: 1)- Mahalia Jackson 2)- Tina Turner 3)- Odetta All three different styles. Masterpieces

[@acajudi100]

RIP all mothers in heaven.

[@silviafigueroa8813]

Thank you for including all mothers

[@aheckw8888]

What a voice

[@wallysmith9162]

That is the most haunting tune I've heard in ages.

[@breeze904]

She did all of this sitting down? Mind blown!

[@dudleymaxwell1550]

what a awfull feeling, to feel like a motherless child, but praise the Lord for in Him I have more then a mother and a father

[@FairchildV]

Legendary!!! Singers today will never understand a voice like this

[@rhondamerrickstudio]

I know why people buy old television programmes now. I would LOVE to see this entire episode.

[@Thompson010Smith]

Hello Rhonda How are you doing today?

[@breeze904]

The nostalgia and the strangest Chicago woman,...amazing

[@dashursaqqara436]

by strangest you mean what?

[@AAwildeone]

Those who cheat and lipsych these days in concert NEED to watch a performance like this, and finally decide if they need to do that, they have no place on a stage...!!! Here's a voice LIVE that actually DESERVED to be onstage!!!

[@slimgb8546]

too true.....too true

[@nbsoakingworship]

+slim gb Aban Mahidas my man

[@anyaw340]

Lip-synching has been going on for a long time - since at least when this clip was made. It's nothing high-tech. It's merely a recording playing in the background, and the singer moving their lips with no words coming out.

[@DennisBreedlove]

this is my 1st time hearing her sing this song..........love it love her wow sing mother.........yes yes yes

[@markherron1407]

Mahalia movie 🍿🎥 brought me here! Blessings and Hugs 💖🤗🙏🤗🙏!

[@m.antoniosims342]

Praise God for blessing the World with the soul of Ms. Mahalia Jackson. This remarkable woman with a simplistic demeanor was covered in God’s brilliant Grace and chilling Holly Ghost power!

[@rickysantos2832]

[@Thompson010Smith]

Hello Dear How are you doing today?

[@frazerpiccolo4484]

She was and is so good... Can't wait to wash the feet of Jesus Christ with my tears, and afterword, listen to Mahalya live. All praise be to God!

[@albertdiner]

These 2 songs blend so well when sung by Mahalia Jackson.

[@justicianna]

Страхотна изпълнителка! Песента е в душата й! За първи път имах плочата й през 1984г. Сядаш, слушаш и забряваш за всичко... Толкова красиво пее...

[@traetv27]

I wonder if anybody else heard that sweet high note at the end in the midst of everyones clapping....

[@b.natural2828]

To the 32 people who did not like this song...... Please leave the earth

[@frankanderson3966]

LMFAO!

[@zenveg]

Find at the studio version on "Bless This House" for a clear, stunning recording.

[@nanaturner51]

Sings to my soul, deep down where good memories are protected, "...where daddy and mammy, they'll be standing' by...". Mahalia, a bright star in the night sky.

[@hersheybar7903]

This such an awesome song and I wish I could listen to it all day

[@songbirdsteph]

My goodness this really pierced my soul ! #ForeverALegend

[@omegarussell4017]

A Great Lady with a Great Exceptional Voice! Enjoyable how she sings about her Faith!

[@cidmusicc]

Absolutely beautiful!! The first time a heard her it was in the film "Imitation of Life" where she sang in a great woman funeral (It was amazing too-I recommend it)

[@ambermayer0521]

cidmusicc That song is called “Trouble of the World” ❤️🎶🙌🏽

[@EdiHooks0519]

I cry every time.

[@jansaddler2024]

This song is speaking to my SOUL. My mother doesn't like me very much and at my age she's told me. She loves me but, she just doesn't like me. I've survived sexual abuse and now I'll survive this. Lord help me fix it.

[@CreekRiverDog]

Um hum and you came out on top

[@jansaddler2024]

I strayed from God, but when I returned back home to the Lord, not only was the Lord waiting but my mother was too.

[@sodapopbrosky]

Man this made me weep. I love it.

[@Imma_King]

I'm learning to appreciate great music and this is great music it is simply beautiful

[@NatureWins22]

I loved singing this

[@oongi]

Now that is what I call SOUL ! She can give Aretha Franklin a run for her money.

[@mrblue99999]

Mahalia Jackson was a friend of the Franklin family and helped to raise Aretha Franklin.
