The R&B/pop superstar has shared a rehearsals video which introduces all the characters and the voices in her all-male choir that supported her on Thomas A. Dorsey’s gospel classic.
In the new clip, Beyoncé explained that she chose singers with a common thread. “I wanted to find real men that have lived that have struggled, cried. Have a life and spirit about them. I felt like this is an opportunity to show the strength and vulnerability in black people.”
She continued, “My grandparents marched with Dr King. And my father was part of the first generation of black men that attended an all-white school. My father has grown up with a lot of trauma from those experiences. I feel like now I can sing for his pain, I can sing for my grandparents’ pain. I can sing for some of the families that have lost their sons.”
Mrs Carter recalled the first time she heard “Precious Lord” as a kid. “My mother sang it to me and my mother played me Mahalia Jackson’s version. She sang the song with her eyes closed. She was a vessel, it was like God speaking, using her body to speak and to heal.”
Beyoncé’s big Grammys night saw her overtake Aretha Franklin into second-place among most honored women in the awards’ history. Bey now has 20, though Alison Krauss is tops with 27 trophies. For the record, she won for best surround sound album (Beyoncé), best R&B song and best R&B performance (both for “Drunk In Love” feat. Jay Z).

Song Of the Day--No Angel
Baby put your arms around me
Tell me I'm a problem
Know I'm not the girl you thought you knew and that you wanted
Underneath the pretty face is something complicated
I come with a side of trouble
But I know that's why you're staying
Because, you're, no, angel, either, baby
No I'm not an anngel either but at least I'm trying
I know I drive you crazy, but would you rather that I be a machine
Who doesn't notice when you're late or when you're lying
I love you even more than you I thought you worried for
'Cause, you're, no, angel, either, baby
Tell me do you want to ride
Tell me do you want to ride
Ride around, ride around
Ride around
Will you ride around with that H-town
If there's candles near your bed, no need for a spell
Stop acting so scared, just do what I tell
First go through my legs, go back on your head
And whatever you want, yeah baby I'll bet it comes true
Baby put your arms around me
Tell me I'm a problem
Know I'm not the girl you thought you knew and that you wanted
Underneath the pretty face is something complicated
I come with a side of trouble
But I know that's why you're staying
Because, you're, no, angel, either, baby
