Mahalia at the Dentist and more!! I remember back when I 1st got this video I was so excited and happy I stayed up late all by myself and watched it alone being it seemed as if I was the only one who loved Mahalia Jackson. Anyway I regreted watching it all alone because it scared me so bad at the end!! After her funeral they have her singing: The Lords Prayer and its as if shes singing at her own funeral. She sang the song so awesome. it had me all in the Spirit about to cry and here I am all in the Spirit of the Lord next thing you know I jumped out of my skin!! The Spirit of the Lord left me so quick!!! They were so wrong for ending that video like that!! And I had the volume all turned up!! Yet today it still scares me!! lol I love the way she talks she reminds me of some of my old Ken Folks. And when she started talking about Neckbones, I was like oh my now thats my kind of food!! I think Ima ask my mamma to cook me some Smoked Neckbones with Potatos, I cant cook em like she can!! I remember one of my Aunts had love Neckbones so much she use to cook Baked Beans with Smoked Neckbones inside. I thought it was weird because we always had hotdogs, but it was sooo good!! Oh and dont forget to turn your volume up high. lol just kidding.

    Momma wearin' that mink! She went from poverty to being a multimillionaire. And she was humble and compassionate too. What a beautiful soul!
  • She is the only gospel singer I know of that didn't cross over. This lady spent her life singing for the lord .

    She could have been bigger than Aretha Franklin but her loyalty and love were for her Lord Jesus Christ. I remember the first time I heard her voice and I got goosebumps and cried with joy, a truly angelic voice.

    King preached and Mahalia sang and we listened and rejoiced!
  • I am Deaf, but I have two hearing aids and I can hear her voice was so beautiful like the Angel.  My mother favorite song, "Be still my soul" and I will never forget the song because God is so good.  Thank you for the sharing! :-)

    I believe She is singing today around God's Throne! Such a beautiful anointed lady!

    This was a true woman of God. I truly feel her success was because she humbly gave to others. She thought nothing of the fame or the power or the glory. She gave it all to God.

    What an absolute treasure she was. Just a gorgeous, wonderfully talented soul. They don't make Mahalia's anymore.
  • True story: I met mahalia at my aunts house in1970; she was very humble and sweet. She asked for writing paper and a pen; gave my sister and me her address and telephone number said, if you ever need me, here's how you can reach me. We never called. She passed away not too long after that. R.I.P Mrs. Jackson♡

    Preparing to portray Mahalia Jackson in her early years in a musical stage play here in Cleveland Ohio and my God learning more about her and hearing more songs makes me more inclined to attempt to do some justice to the role! She was a jewel before my time but blessing me and doesn’t even know it. Amazing vessel she was

    Today people have to tell you they are annoinated, but Ms. Mahalia Jackson didn't have to tell you, her annoinating is all over her, you can just see God's blessings even before she opens her mouth. Thank you for the post R.I.P. Ms MJ
