Take 6 is absolutely spectacular! All those other 'boy' bands are literally BOYS next them. They cannot even approach their level of musical excellent. They make me quite proud.
I was lucky enough to see them on their first national tour way back when, needless to say, they blew the place up! An amazing group that set the standard for acapella singing that has never been matched.
The key change down twice at the end was what made me poop my pants! My sister lived in Huntsville (where I believe they're from) and gave me their first album, the year it came out. I was working on my music degree in Jacksonville (a small college town also in Alabama) at the time and couldn't listen to it enough times! Incredible!
@DetroitTwinz: Not 100% sure but I think Cedrick sings most of the 7ths (countertenior) & doubles with the bass in a higher octave from time to time.~K.D. Brosia `Soul Talk`
Well, actually, KobeSingleton, Cedric is barytone ( not countertenor) He is wearing beige top and black pants left to Bass singer... And the 7ths? Below? I think you might be right....😅 but nore sure
Actually most of the personal is the same. Chech the web site for performances. i saw them in cerritos ca a while back.... what an awesome show. For people who love vocal harmony you should check out "The Real Group" from sweden they are killer!
@moviemogul83 I have to say that on THIS particular performance, Mark kind of jacked them up by that whole key-changing thing and they had to find the new key (quite unexpectedly) which threw them off a bit and affected their performance.
yoo deese guys are great but i have to say these guys from trenton known as thhe trenton high quintet members devon, rob, jamere, najee, and dawan tore this song apart really so take 6 may not be duplicated but was very very well imitated
@mdseigle specially in a six-voices group where everyone is doing something diff'rent of you, and who doesn't have a trained ear for harmonies always thinks there's someone out of tune...
I'd prefer it if when the song ends, they'd stop. The everlong reprise thing is a bit annoying & wearing on a body. And then after all that, it gets cut off at the end (like it was at the beginning) and you don't get to hear the audience's appreciation. Not happy with this vid, sry.

"we're back into the original key", priceless!
what a group!
Siiiick! Mark Kibble's a virtuoso... Ok, all of them! Unbelievable...
I grew up on these guys and they are the best to ever do it acapella. Period.
these guys are awesome no doubt, if you like these guys you should also check out naturally 7 they are pretty good too.
the Grammy performance should be here in UA-cam.
Totally awesome! This group has been blessed with tremendous talent. Yes!
What on freaking Earth?
Simply astonishing...
OUTSTANDING PURE BORN BLACK SOUL!!!!
Take 6 is and has ALWAYS been my favorite group!! Their arrangements are not duplicated or imitated!
Take 6 is an AMAZING group...I simply LOVE how they harmonize with each other...There's...just no words I can use to describe their talent...
They were just in the bay area and I missed them. I'm practically in tears over it. One day I know I will see them live again.
this is the best recording of their "Mary" they go in!

I saw them in '97. They were so awesome, the audience was in shock. Plus, they are SANCITIFED!
@forutonvee My thoughts exactly.

The group is still around, but not the same personell.
i miss the old claude :( the new claude just doesn't sound like he used to.
Why was Merv standing so far away from the others? Foreshadowing, perhaps?
nice! what concert was this?
Well, what you doing watching this?

Ok..noob question...i got 1st-2nd tenor, contralto(?) baritone and bass...what does Cedrick sing?
I believe Cedric is baritone . Alvin bass , Claude 1st tenor , mark and merv are 2nd tenors , David contralto

@DetroitTwinz Baritone
Persuasions...

Maybe it's because I don't like religious based music
Meh...these guys aren't THAT good.
Toostie Hoodie Be gone hating troll. Can you sing? If not, be quiet. Frfr.
