Jesus christ!!! I knew Mervin had range but dayyummm I didn't know he had THAT much range. I always wondered who hit that rediculously high note at the end of this song even thought i assumed it was Mark cuz I know Mark is a first tenor but wow! Dayum really makes me wish Mervin would have stayed with the group, I love "I Do" by B2M and "don't know nothin" by For Real but I wasnt aware of other things he has laced.

@brianmessemer29734 жыл бұрын
Yes and the audience is whipped into a frenzy over it, they almost start cheering and applauding over them but they're all musically sensitive and their instinct to listen overrides their excitement to cheer but you can hear a few people losing control especially 4:30. This live performance is so good, I think they sound tighter as an ensemble and yet more vocally free here than on the record. They were on such a good day today - and the sound guys really got it right too.

It's true the voice will deteriorate with time if you don't take good care of it and meet your singing teacher regularly. That applies even to the greatest. In fact, they are so 'cos they realize they need to practice and remember. Th truth is Take 6 was back in 1989 the best acapella group not only for harmomnies, but also voice emissions. Today the harmonies are there, the emission is gone.

I remember back in the day when Mervyn DID sing the top note at the end...Claude was typically the high 1st tenor based on his tessitural, but, as someone else said, they traded off, which made it all the more cool. Was it just me or was Alvin Chea just killin' it on his bass stepouts. This was probably the best Jordan overall with their ad lib. It was a good time for them!

I just heard another Take 6 video where I think it's called Take 6 Medley...at any rate, at the end, they sing the end of "Get Away Jordan", and at the end, David Thomas sings the high note at the end. This only confirms that these guys will trade off and that most of them can sing virtually anything!

@MikeJay61115 жыл бұрын
You are exactly right about this video, AND about current events. My age is showing, they did indeed switch up the top bc all 3 (Merv, Claude, and Mark) were interchangeable. I have a very good friend tat attended Alabama @ the time Merv and te guys were at Huntsville. Needless to say I've seen them numerous times, and Claude has ALWAYS done the high note. IMHO after Merv left, they went from out of this world (Xmas album was the last with his arrangements) to simply great, to now... okay...

You guys are comparing men from 1989 to 2008. Thats almost 20 years. These guys should be in their mid to late 40's. They are still something very different, in this prefab and sampling industry. So appreciate them while they are around cause there is no group on the horizon touching these guys.
