I had rehearsed the words for days, the ones I knew would probably change everything. Mama, I think I might be…
But then, before I could force the words out, the world shattered around me.

The song expresses the #gospelMusic theme of #gettingHappy, an expression of #religiousEcstasy for salvation. It is most associated with #JudyGarland, who performed it in her last MGM film #SummerStock (1950) and in live concert performances throughout the rest of her life.

So Beyoncé's #CowboyCarter is a genre-hopping behemoth - tied together by a country thread. The first half of the album is solid, but it's the second half of the album where you finally get the sense that THIS is what country music sounds like through the lens of Beyoncé. And that's where things go from good to fucking spectacular. 10/10

I'm an #Exvangelical and I'm not afraid to admit that I still love the sound of #GospelMusic

I've added a verse to one of my favorite #gospel songs so it's a little more #inclusive to me:

O Enbys let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on Enbys let's go down
Down in the river to pray

Alright y,all I am running my very first D&D campaign and I need some mood music.

Give me your weirdest creepiest revival-style country music, shape singing, etc. The story opens in an isolated rural church and I thought that would be a fun departure from Gregorian chanting

Holly holy eyes, dream of only me
Where I am, what I am
What I believe in
Holly holy
Holly holy dream
Wanting only you
And she come
And I run just like the wind will
Holly holy
Sing a song
Sing a song of songs
Sing it out, Sing it strong
Yeah! Yeah!
Call the sun in the dead of the night
And the sun gonna rise in the sky
Touch a man who can't walk upright
And that lame man, he gonna fly
And I fly, yeah, And I fly

#GreatAlbums1950s - #SisterRosettaTharpe – Gospel Train (1956). Billboard called Tharpe’s music “rock-and-roll spiritual singing” a decade before Elvis arrived at Sun Records. Her R&B gospel influenced the likes of Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin, and her breakout guitar solos anticipated the style of Chuck Berry. This 1956 set features Tharpe still at her peak, rocking the gospel like nobody else on “Jericho, “Up Above My Head” and other classics.
