I have had the privilege and pleasure to hear Chanticleer in person several times, as well as by their CD recordings and KZfaq videos. They are consistent no matter how you hear them!

Preach it, brothers! Lovely voices and gospel music! And Marques, your voice is a gift from the Lord above!

This is my favorite performance! All of their voices are amazing but the lead singer blew me away!

One word for this AMAZING👍 the lead singer tho! Stunning I could go on and one. 🙏

My favorite Chanticleer song of all time. Marques is insanely talented! I could listen to his voice every day and never tire of it. Simply amazing!

Dayum brother! Sing the run brother!

I almpst caught the entire spirit. I heard that countertenor's notes and yelled jesus.

Joy seeing them live. So glad I can hear such wonderful music.

Those high notes reminded me a lot of the super high notes on Get Away, Jordan by Take 6.

This is wonderful, thank you Marques Jerrell Ruff! It was a joy to hear Chanticleer live in Wuppertal, Germany around 1995. Steve Barnett was along. Teldec invited me to come down (as a marketing copy author. The performance was riveting, the high standard of stirring a cappella vocal performance wonderfully demonstrated. Chad Runyon shared a very entertaining story about Maxim Vengerov's priceless violin. More power to you. Keep it up.

I'm almost speechless The men sang with feeling and with perfect 4-part harmony. Plus, the lead vocalist has a WIDE range and sang with from the soul. Good Lord I'm ready to have church ⛪ 😂🤣😂 Note: There's a black guy that did a double clap. You know he raised in church

Always great to see and hear them. This is an older recording. Many members left and new ones came in. The lead singer still is with them. They are amazing and nothing changes, even with the nest singer. Happy to see them soon again in Ottawa.

God spoke to Joshua to do thy will He said if you fight the battle, the sun'll stand still He give me a lantern and he told me go He give me a harp and he told me to blow If I blew my lungs away That I would get them back in a coming day When I get to Heaven, gonna put on my shoes I'll walk around in Heaven and tell my news Look up, David, to heal the day Tune up my harp and begin to play Sit down, servant I can't sit down Sit down, servant No, I can't sit down You oughta sit down, servant I can't sit down, I just got to heaven and I can't sit down Oh, sit down, servant I can't sit down Sit down, servant No, I can't sit down Why don't you sit down, servant? I can't sit down, I just got to heaven and I can't sit down

Man, I probably watch this video 5 occasions every year since you've posted it. Just absolutely stunning.

how wonderful is this?!!

I have watched this video approximately 20 times in 2 days

It’s much more difficult to become a member of Chanticleer than the Secret Service

Love this performance.

Tremendous voices!

My favorite

Bravo Marques!!! I am going to miss seeing you :)

Next level soloist right there, love it!

Man, what a rich rendition!

Wow!

Just wonderful, Marques. Greetings from Germany!

OMG! love this song and love your voice!

Incredible!

So much soulfulness in this rendition. Interesting to see how the countertenors in the group bend away from the English school and more toward the American sopranist model. Does it take away from the all male quality of the group and make this sound more like a mixed choir? Undoubtedly, this is singing of the highest caliber, but I wonder how fans of all male a capella feel about this vs. groups that maintain the more masculine color of groups that came before (like the Soul Stirrers or the Blind Boys from Alabama or even the King's Singers.

Engagement pur ..... !

Sing

I just give up with my voice!!
