Kirk Franklin is another gospel artist who forged a bridge between the gospel and secular music. He even influenced a generation of male R&B singers.

Aretha Franklin’s “Oh Happy Day”

Aretha Franklin’s version of Philip Doddridge’s hymn Oh Happy Day first made its debut on the gospel music scene in 1967. The song, recorded by the gospel group Edwin Hawkins Singers, was an instant hit, topping the charts in more than 30 countries. It also reached No. 1 in France and Germany, the UK and Ireland. Its success helped establish the song as a gospel standard. Hawkins’ arrangement features a recurring Rimbault refrain and omits the verses.

While the octaves of the album are all beautiful, it is the last track that will forever change your life. Franklin recorded the album over the course of the decade and a half, giving it a unique and unforgettable sound.  Although there are many great gospel albums, “Oh Happy Day” is arguably her best-known.

She has influenced a variety of genres. In addition to gospel music, she has performed a variety of secular and spiritual songs. In fact, Rolling Stone magazine has ranked her as the ninth best artist of all time. A tribute to her talents is a fitting way to celebrate the singer’s legacy. So, whether you’re a fan of her music or not, “Oh Happy Day” will remind you of a moment in time in your life.

The story behind “Oh Happy Day” is a classic story. In 1998, Aretha Franklin’s grandmother agreed to take her young sons back to Detroit so she could raise her sons. However, this decision was not easy, and the storyline in this movie is a tragic one. When the film was released, it re-emerged as a classic. Although the singer’s mother, Carolyn Franklin, did not balk at her daughter’s decision to make the move to the top.

Nina Simone’s “Sinnerman”

The song is a strange, long piece that has remained popular throughout the years. One of the lyrics gives the song its title, and it has been sampled in a number of commercials and films. Timbaland and Felix da Housecat have also sampled the song for their “Verve Remixed” series. “Sinnerman” is also referenced in Ray Bradbury’s short story, “And The Rock Cried Out.” The song is also sampled in the HTC Corporation’s “You” campaign. This song has also been referenced in Stephen Hunter’s novel Night of Thunder.

Nina Simone’s music came about in a period when she was a struggling young musician. She began gigging in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and taught piano lessons for money. In 1961, she met Langston Hughes and James Baldwin, and began helping Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Southern Christian Leadership Coalition. Her music has remained relevant since that time, and she has continued to produce quality music.

Despite its age, “Sinnerman” was released at a time when the nation was at war and the parallels between 1965 and 2020 are painfully apparent. Music, after all, serves as a mirror for the times, and “Sinnerman” is no different. It forces the listener to look inward and outward, and reminds them that change is necessary.

She used the song as a finale to her live performances. The earlier version of “Sinnerman” was never included on her album Nina at the Village Gate. Its lyrics, however, re-introduce the concept of sinners in the song.

Another version of Sinnerman, this time by Canadian jazz singer Goose, is a ten-minute homage to the historic Black spiritual. It is often considered the most acclaimed version of the song. It’s a ten-minute jazz epic that serves as a close in live performances. The song describes the plight of a man wrought with sin and his subsequent flight from God.
