*******************
An icon of 20th and 21st century music, the voice of the civil rights movement, and the undisputed Queen of Soul-there is only one Aretha Franklin. In her incredible six-decade career, Aretha evolved from teenage gospel star to reigning pop and R&B diva, recording classics like “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain Of Fools”, “Think” (lyrics by Aretha Franklin), definitive versions of the songs “Respect” and “I Say a Little Prayer”, and global hits like “Freeway Of Love,” “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”, and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.”
Altogether, 112 of her singles reached the charts, with 20 No. 1 R&B singles, the most ever by a female artist. She won 18 Grammy Awards (including the first eight trophies for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance) and, out of recognition for her for indelible contribution to American music and culture, received both the Presidential Medal of Freedom and a Pulitzer Prize. - Hudba

Anyone listening to this in 2024….after the debates, I’m feeling sad and hopeless for where we are in this country. God help us…😢♥️🇺🇸
I was struggling at my new job a few years ago, the Lord JESUS CHRIST used this song to minister to my soul.
In the words of Aretha Louise Franklin.”I Never Left The Church. I Took The Church With Me”. Yeah performing on stage. And performing at Church as well. God Rest Her Soul. The Queen Of Soul.
This song kept me during the darkest times of the last 4 years - COVID, Racial Injustice and horrible Politics. I would turn this on and just play it over and over whenever it got to be way too much. This song reminded me to stay hopeful - faithful. My family played it often on Sunday morning when I was a child - I always loved it. And when I needed it most in my adult life, it was there for me - restored me. Music is truly the voice of the divine ❤️. My Lord if we could just come together Wholy Holy 🙏🏽.
I play this song 🎵 over and over to remind me of love and the foundation was laid out . But yet we forget..2 much violence prejudice . I keep my soul planted and imagine the love ❤ that God has planned
@@wb923 Yes to all you have said 💛
Amen and amen
I remember Moma played this when we would be on our to church,when I was a teenager, I love this song, Gospel music has helped me all my life.
I have been suffering tribulations for tha past couple of months. This song has lifted me up. I can tolerate the pain. I know the Lord is with me and is healing me, both my body and my soul.
On reflection at 57 years old...we may never see the like of this type of artist again.
Be grateful she lived among us 🌹
yesssssssssss 🥰
@@Nicole-kx9vgamen whew I'm happy she filmed this for the people who weren't born yet I enjoyed it after finding the movie at the library I always knew audio existed for this but not a live movie until I found it amen.
my mom had the record
I’ve never been so focused on background singers! Just beautiful!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can feel her spirit when she sings this song
It don’t make sense how amazing she sounds!..Just gives me chills..Her voice is an instrument 🎷 🎺🎻🎹🎸🎼
A one in a BILLION instrument at that.
I could listen to her all day
🎵Jesus left a long time ago & said He would return but He left us a book to believe in & in it we’ve got a whole lot to learn 🎵
Jesus said once the holy spirit comes upon you, you need no man nor book to teach anything
My favorite gospel album ever. I was a child when she recorded this. Her Dad's Church is in my old neighborhood & still stands today. Continue to Rest well, ReeRee.
🙏🏿❤️❤️❤️❤️
I wasn't born yet but I thank my mom for introducing me to it I'm happy to know we can buy the film captured at her church and it's wonderful the church is still there too ❤❤❤ .
I'm glad it was filmed and I was in complete awe watching it back even Mick Jagger was in the spirit the people who attended were touched.
I Loved This Song For Years ....
I Just Found Out Marvin Gaye Wrote it & Now I'm In More Tears .
Go Head Jesus , Marvin , Aretha & that Choir !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pure Excellence !!!!!
Trivia:
Aretha and Marvin grew up together in Detroit.
Marvin dated Erma Franklin briefly.
@@bernie1740 Didn’t Marvin grow up in Washington DC?
@@andreacheney3593 Marvin spend good amount of time in Detroit, of course.
Tears rolled down my eyes. This is a gift above and beyond. 🙌🏿
I FEEL THE SAME WAY.😎
😢😢😢I'll share your tears 😢A-men 👏
Soooooooo beautiful. The choir sounds like angels from heaven. And Aretha.....well, there are just no words....
Listened to this every Sunday morning with my mom while getting ready for church. Fellowship started in our house before we left the house Sunday morning. Thank you God for the beautiful memories I made with my mom. Hallelujah!
This is my favorite song on this album as a child and still today
Ok how her vocal fade away and come back in at the end was so dope.
Absolutely Aretha
Yes indeed, so spiritual and so moving....now that I have seen the movie, it's even that more special now.
@@ronaldoduncan5801 so true
My gospel album. Rest well Aretha 🙏 Franklin 💓💓
Been listening to this since 1972. Wholy Holy is one of the most transporting songs on the album. I'm in the heavenlies, "joining my voice with Angels and Archangels and with all the company of heaven ..."
Yes, Lord!!!
Have mercy. This was RETARDED LIVE. The choir could barely concentrate because Aretha is pulling everyone’s necks and STILL F it up❤️❤️
I was working at a mom,and pop store when I first heard this song,it was addictive,and I just couldn't get enough of it,and til this day there isn't a gospel artist who takes me as close to glory as this.
😊
That voice.....the depth ...the tone....the power.....i raise my head to the heavens in wonder and awe.....Wholy Holy.....
𝙰𝚖𝚎𝚗!!
This song is an "Ever Green" Spiritual soothing genre. It will never loose its value "Today, Tomorrow and Eternally." Rest in Peace Aretha, you'll ever be in my Heart. As a Professional Music Teacher in South Africa, Mpumalanga Province, I will keep on teaching generations to come about your music.
This Song proves who and what God is to his creation. It also teaches that not only is God Holy His love is Holy and change not.
If this song don't inspire you,you don't have a soul.jan2020.
No
Say that!!
She sung the thang ! What a gifted anointed golden throat! No wonder her dad said she could STONE sing - yesSuh
aretha was a master arranger too listen
Makes me shed tears every time, The Spirit is absolutely formidable in this performance. Aretha’s voice is a true gift from God and he’s her instrument. Wow….just wow
Marvin should’ve given this song to Miss Ree. She really did owned this one.
I’m sure he loved 🥰 it. However, I like his version too.
My favorite hymn from this album maybe if people would listen to the lyrics, they would stop hurting innocent people! Think!!🙏💯🙏🌹🌹🌹
Most amazing background vocals ever! Harmonizing no words!🤗🤗🤗🤗
Same here........I really love the background vocals.........they sounds like Angel's. Love it.

This is the STUDIO lead vocal!!!!!! The background girls also. The ACTUAL lead vocal is on the RE-RELEASE of Amazing Grace, 2 disc set!!!!!! In any case....SHE SINGS THE FOOL OUT IF period! I wish I knew these ladies names on background. Love the QUEEN forever.
If you lived in SoCal in the 70's this album means something different to you. RIP Queen of Soul and thanks for making this dynamic album
Yes - even up in the Bay Area in the 70's - it meant so much to us - because we knew she did it in Calif at James Cleveland's church - you just felt it deeply!!!!! So many memories!!!
Amen, yes i did. you're correct.
When this film was released in theaters I went to see it 4 different times. I bought the album when it came out in 1972 and to see the visuals finally was unreal.
This woman's soul was/is too heavy for the here and now. Thank you for the upload.
Wholly Holy is still my favorite
Mine too
Aretha, went back to her Church roots to make this delivery 🙏..
Pure angels singing. Period.
Jus saw the Amazing Grace documentary.....this performance is the pinnacle of the film ❤️🙏🏾
It is sweet.
That damn choir (those Cissys in the back, Jesus)🤯🤯🤯 These were young people (mostly), too👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿I see why she chose HIS CHURCH🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Hamid X I’m watching it now, the choir is marching in! Hallelujah thank you Jesus!
This song was written prophetically...before the end of this world, we must become wholly Holy, Holiness without which no man shall see God! Love is the precursor to holiness.
Makes me cry everytime she starts singing this. Especially seeing her in the film.
One of the most Beautiful songs by Aretha Franklin. I remember listening to this whole album as a child at my Grandmother's house, I was totally mesmerized 🙏🏽❤

her voice and those backing vocals 😍❤ amen...
To see Aretha Franklin, the Trio, and the SCCChoir from AmazingGraceTheMovie, what an annointing performance
I bought the album when it was released in 1972. I had just found out that I was on academic probation after my freshman year at University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. No one really knew what I was going through emotionally and Spiritually at that time but God. This album set my soul straight. I played it until the vinyl started skipping. This song here was liberating. Marvin did it first in that same period yet Aretha’s spin on it took it into the stratosphere. To be Wholy Holy is a different level. I surrender all.
Sang Aretha, she hitting those Octives at the end Wow amazing Thank You !!! RIP
Her voice reaches right up to Heaven at the end.
GOD ..THANK You For This VOICE😇
Play this to calm down a protest rally
😂😂😂
Now, on Aug. 24, 2022, I got to hear this amazing piece remastered, and finally married to the original video shot at that church in '72, accompanied by a live amazing orchestra at the Hollywood Bowl. Seeing young Aretha Franklin performing this on screen almost had me in tears as it had me missing my late grandmother and parents. I pray that someone posts the video from that night. It was So spiritual.
The HULU Documentary brought me here. Awesome ❤️🙏🏽
... and I went to Reverend Cleveland's church in L.A. in the late 70s. Awesome!
AWESOME SENSATIONAL BEAUTIFUL HEAVENLY!!!!
....we can rock this earth's foundation.....
Sing past the rafters,Aretha. Higher and higher.The Queen of Soul👑 Let's walk in HIS SHEKINAH LIGHT.😇
The Holy Ghost fell upon me listening to this song one Sunday morning, while getting ready for church. I was 14yrs old. This song will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you GOD! 🙌🏾
The movie “Amazing Grace” has me now listening to all her oldies. Love it. I’m climbing, and Mary don’t you weep are my FAVORITES!!
I love the background vocals .......it's like listening to angels singing.
Still love this 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾need God to move expeditiously and with faith I’m sure He will show Himself in my current situation 😢
An all-time favorite. Rest well, Queen. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

What a beautiful gospel song!
This song is so Holy. It reminds me of the words Aretha other song, Never grow old. If the word of God does not age and fade away, this song will never. ever grow old.
This Song gives me Strength and Comforter and how we Supposed to be as Christians to Glorified God, Jesus Holy Spirit Principal the world would be a Better Place! 🙋🏾♀️✝️💯
Stunning!! Wholly Holy 🙏💓
Maybe the greatest music on here under 20K views???
I was 19 years old the summer of 1972. I bought this album for my mother to listen to. It was a double set. Meaning it was comprised of two albums. Or LPs, Long Playing records. I used to stop by my mother's house to drop my daughter off before I went to work. Also came by so that I could play Wholly Holy n listen to it. Sort of like prepared me for work n set my day. N everything Marvin wrote n Holy, Holy is true. In the Bible, The Lord Jesus Christ says, "Be ye holy as I am holy. Meaning be separate n st apart from this world. Marvin Gaye had a traumatic life n so did Aretha Franklin. When a person has a lot of trauma n their lives it because they are chosen by God Almighty n they are gifted with great talents, gift's n abilities from God. Which has a great anointing on them. The enemy does not want those gifts. Which are bestowed unpin his creation, man n woman. So despite trauma n tragedy Marvin n Aretha SANG N SANG!!! To be Chosen By God inputs a heavy responsibility on the one who is Chosen. Both of them loved God. I will end by saying, "Many are the afflictions of the RIGHTEOUS. But the Lord, He delivereth them from them ALL!! NOT SOME. BUT ALL AMEN N AMEN.
Every time I I hear this song it reminds me of my mom she would play this song on her piano and sing just like Aretha
This just a work of art, any way you look at it
This song takes me so many places.
Watched this on Hulu and it sounds so beautiful.
IDKWIWD if I was there in person to witness some shit like that (album)! THIS SHIT RIGHT HERE NIGGA...??? The modulations, the sopranos, etc😩😩😩😩
I absolutely love this. Prolific, soulful and stirring ,epic, and iconic.Amazing
I shed tears of happiness everytime I hear this song. It's like being wrapped in the energy of the God and Goddess at one time.
Beautiful! This song brings tears to my eyes.
What can anyone say about Ms Aretha Blessed and Highly FAVORD ,A,MEN
A full body chill!! 🥰
Chills & happy tears! Sing, Queen! 👏🏾
Way different than the original version by Marvin Gaye but equally amazing.
Marvin introduced it to the world and Aretha took it to church🙌🏾 Two greats that are truly missed!!
Yes! I still enjoy Marvin’s version too. 🎉
Both are great! I realize how powerful Aretha’s version is, but I still enjoy the original too.
This song dropped in my spirit 😢❤
I'm truly and completely audible-words-speechless and selahing-stoic and yet dry-crying and wet-crying tears of Anointed Holy Spirit-Flowing, Christ Jesus-Reverencing and Almighty God-Glorifying JOY inexpressible and full Glory,,, having witnessed this Anointed Ministry in song and music and having experienced, and still continuing as such experiencing this side of the passing-away heaven and earth, 'an appetizer-Helping and Blessed Assurance Foretaste of New Heaven and New Earth and New Jerusalem Glory Devine and Heavenly Bliss and Ambrosia!!!' Almighty GOD is "WHOLY HOLY"!!!,,, 'WHOLLY-ALTOGETHER' HOLY,,, HOLY,,,,,, HOLY,,,, HOLY,,,,, HOLY,,,,,,, HOLY ,,,,,,,,,,,, HOLY!!!!!!! AMEN!!!!!!! Psalm 89 - KJV (especially Verses 1-17), Psalm 84:1-7 KJV, Psalm 122:1 KJV, Isaiah 6:1-3 KJV, Revelation 4 KJV (especially Verses 1-3, 8-11), Revelation 7:9-17 KJV, Revelation 21:1-3, 22-23 KJV, Revelation 22:1-7 KJV

🎶"Weve got to believe in each others dreams !!"🎶 *church erupts in cheers* -*I begin to wheep happily in theaters.*
This whole movie/concert is a spiritual experience. Whether you believe in organized religion or not(personally im all around spiritual learning from all types of religions and their history) , this will uplift your spirits in a matter of seconds hearing her voice and it will be sustained throughout and even feel the same afterwards upon nostalgic reminiscence, asking to be heard and experienced once more, time and time again.
Absolutely wonderful from the Amazing Grace when ever yu listening to the Aretha Franklin song her voice moves an motivated
ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS, BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SONGH FOR YEARS.
How do you F a song up like that, man❓⁉️The choir was so excited, they had trouble concentrating and WHO WOULDN’T❓❓I understand her redoing it❤️❤️This is what HEAVEN SOUNDS LIKE. If you saw the movie, you now know the real reason for this miracle💔💔❤️❤️👊🏿👊🏿
