2671276, Has Dorinda Clark Cole ever made a bad song?

If she has, I've never heard it..lol

Her voice is so darn beautiful and she goes from traditional gospel to contemporary arrangements so effortlessly.

I wish I could just hire her to follow me (ala I'm Gonna Get You Sucka) and sing in my ear.

2671277, no!! and neither has KCS...

The Clark Sisters' hollering doesn't strike as me as bad as 95% of other gospel artists. In their case, the holler fits more often than not.

They don't holler for hollaring sake. Actually yes they do..but even their hollaring is beautiful vocally. And with that said, I don't know if you can't really call what the Clark sisters (particularly Dorinda) do, hollaring. They mos def sing with emotion and it usually fits the song dynamics.

Peep this clip of Is My Living In Vain from the 70's

@3:00 (I think Karen) hollars "Noooo Nooo!!" and even though it's a holler..it's...not.
