I'll tell you a story bro
It's a sad story but it was a good story
When I went to
My mothers, well my aunt's
Funeral in South Carolina
When we went in
It was, it was in a church
So we all sat down and you know, we're the close family so we sit down first
cnd as we sit down my aunt's casket's there
cnd in the corner is this old woman with a fan
Cos it's baking hot you know
So she's sort of wafting herself with the fan
You know and as she's sort of cooling herself down she starts to sing
cnd while she's singing she's just singing these sort of hymns
cnd as she sings them the people who are walking in the place start to sort of respond
So she's gives a little call out, and they respond
She's calls out again, and they respond
But what's really nice about the vibe is that it's all at a really cool pace
Nobody's rushing, nobody's doing anything, the lady's just looking at you singing her song
People behind us are responding
This is building the atmosphere of the church as you walk through the door.
cs that starting to go and it sort of raises - it gets louder and louder and louder
The preacher starts to come on and he starts the sermon
c lot of funerals in the US are weird because they have people come up talking about the person that's dead
cnd this particular funeral there was all preachers
There's about five preachers in the back
Some who sing
Some who preach
Some who sing and preach
cnd they all go on and on and on
So as these guys start to sort of do their sermon and talk about my aunt
cbout how her life was and how influential she was to them
That woman would start chirping up again
cnd everyone in the back would start doing that call and response thing again
cnd then the choir would kick in and then you get the choir singing a beautiful gospel song
But because these songs are just sort of old gospel tracks
They just make your heart just soar man
It's just such a beautiful sound you know, hearing these people sing
