as I'm happy to be proved wrong, let's have the track number and position (mins:secs) for the gospel choir please.

if Once Upon a Time counts as being a part of the album, then there you have your Gospel choirs. if it's not a song of the album, then I'm wrong.

at first i thought the Gospel choirs were in High Lonesome or Even Cowgirls or some other song that has female background vocals that i don't remember, but then i realized it was probably Hollie or some other girl that was credited on the album...

i'll have to give another listen to the album.. tell you later!

as OUaT is on the Japanses edition, it does count as being on the album, but that ain't now gospel choir, that's a few people singing background vocals

it sure don't sound anything like this





that said, what Brian actually said about the album at the Knitting Factory is: "it's got gospel singers on it - unreal"; so I stand corrected in any case

there's a gospel choir on that song!

alright, it isn't 30 people singing, this is a mini choir... but still, where's the rule that says a gospel choir has to be made of x number of people?

besides, i'm not an expert in gospel choirs, but i'm pretty sure they don't sound all the same

ps: 'OUat' just sounds funny

Even Cowgirls Get the Blues

Great Expectations! "humming a song from 1962..."

But that's not gospel..?

the easiest place to hear it in Cowgirls is on the "Can I get a witness pretty baby" line

Yes, that is a line from the song Great Expectations. If you think that line includes a gospel choir, it's time to get your ears checked.

Well thanks for the sarcasm >.< but i mean during that part in the background, funny how the night moves. Maybe not a gospel choir then. But it's something i guess, I haven't been able to hear it anywhere else on the album

all i hear are some far away 'uuuh uuh' in the background sang by some girl/s on that part.. don't know if that's what you mean, but i don't hear gospel there either

do I regret starting this? just remember, it's not actually a gospel choir we are looking for, it's gospel singers

Gia Ciambotti and Kim Yarbrough could be considered the gospel singers Brian mentioned, right? they sure have great voices
