    Morgan's voice and feeling are ridiculously sublime, but that guitarist is KILLING IT as well. Much props.

      I always give Morgan's videos a thumbs up, but yes, Doug needs his own thumbs up on this one. It's just such a fun sound!

    I love how she's just casually curled up on couch, BELTING out this song. What an incredible talent. And that guitar. Wow. (Did anyone else hear a dog bark someone in there? I swear I heard it around minute 3)

    • @omnomnomblehh4345
      @omnomnomblehh4345 8 років тому +9

      +Bethany Sutherland there was a bark just after 2 minutes :D and she casually smiles and goes back to being amazing xD

    • @gillesb4198
      @gillesb4198 8 років тому +3

      +Benny Henny her smile was amazing too, and meaningful : she had just understood the dog (a) had been listening (b) had barked just after she had sung "some day you might want to run away" (c) was effectively ready to get out and let it be known, but with no intention to make her cry... ain't that sweet ?

    • @herman7661
      @herman7661 7 років тому

      Check out Morgan singing "Imagine": the same guitarist and the dog features as well.

    • @armadillotoe
      @armadillotoe 4 роки тому +2

      I thought the same thing about being curled up on the couch. How can she do that without standing up, and using every technique to increase her breath and power??? That makes it more incredible.

  • @bramvanbreda91

    • @jimburnes9415
      @jimburnes9415 8 років тому +1

      +bramvanbreda91 seems like what's really needed for great artists like morgan james and sara niemietz are really good producers. PMJ is a start, but i think there needs to be a larger venue for their considerable gifts.

  • @michaelcannon8718
    @michaelcannon8718 8 років тому +74

    So freaking ORGANIC!!! Watch her face and body language. She is SEEING in her mind what she is singing. It is a visual musical in her mind that she sees and projects from. It's absolutely Fascinating to watch the process in front of your very eyes!!

    • @ginensky

  • @chickm14
    @chickm14 8 років тому +146

    I just love watching this woman perform. People need to realize that she is doing this, while sitting cross legged on the couch, not some cushy recording studio. You can ever hear a dog barking in the background, GO MORGAN!

    I can't believe I just now discovered Morgan today. I grew up in Muscle Shoals right in the middle of the explosion of music being pumped out of FAME and Muscle Shoals Sound studios, the whole Jerry Wexler / Atlantic thing that was going on there and a lot of the people in those studios were/are my friends. Morgan, you definitely do justice to the music of my life. You gained a new fan today.

    @gmb858 5 років тому

    Many women want to climb the "Aretha" mountain to have the range and strength to sing a song like "Baby I Love You." Morgan James "leapfrogs" that mountain without missing a step. Morgan has the power and vocal dexterity to take on the "Queen of Soul's" biggest challenges. When Morgan gets to the arenas to sing, she won't need a microphone to reach the fans in the nosebleed seats. What a set of pipes!

    Two things....
    ...I love morgan's voice and the way she can consistently hit the high notes in her covers....
    ...and...
    ...the strumming by the guitar player made me think about lynyrd skynyrds 70's song "The Ballad of Curtis Lowe".
    Well done to both morgan and the guitar player for a job well done.
