Omg what a time to be born.. The original movie still gives me chills. SO happy I stumbled upon this..... Sister Act forever a classic.

I am not comparing because I loved the original back then and it was so surreal that Whoopi was able to recreate this so many decades later. I loved it and can't stop playing it over and over. Sister Act 3 should be lit.

Classic. I was getting hype as if i were still back in the 90's. Can still watch this movie and never get tired. Tanya your beautiful voice took me as if i were in church. Thanks luv and to all you all who stained our hearts with the beautiful memories that will never be forgotten.

I was hoping to see Lauren Hill sing her part...Love her voice..Tanya did good

Seeing Whoopi smiling melted my heart

SAAAAAAAANNNNNGGGGGG TONYA, WHAT A GIFTING!!!!

You can tell that brought back many wonderful memories and emotions for Whoopi. I love this!❤❤❤

Simply beautiful! Lauryn Hill and Tanya Blount voices like angels. The song as usual makes me cry. Thank you cast of Sister Act 2.

Such a BEAUTIFUL childhood memory... and now GrownUp Remake is even BEAUTIFUL...❤

This made me shed tears. Not because of the songs but because of the memories as a kid in my childhood watching this movie and the realization that im now an adult with my own kids.

I love Lauren Hill, but the more mature voice of Tanya Blount took it to church! And in a live performance!

Tanya was vocally mature back then. They downplayed her voice in the movie because Lauren was the star of the movie. They would not even allow her to use her upper register during the duet. At the end of the movie, watch the credits where they sing individually and Tanya kills it. Here is Tanya from back then kzread.info/dash/bejne/aG16mJiuaNTLlco.htmlsi=Uyz1UaV9DCbSccYa

I missed these days. being 16 and almost watching this on repeat every other weekend or night.

This song so powerful

At a very young age of five, "Sister Act", opened the door of joy in my heart which showed me that even the world of showbusiness was able to bring the light of praising and worshiping God through the diverse eyes of viewers around the world. I really love movies with church choir teams (themes), they really inspire me especially I'm a worship pastor in our church and at the last part of that Now where Whoopie cried, I myself can't hold back my tears seeing the same choir team that inspired me as a child. Thank you so much, "Sister Act". You'll always be my fave ❤❤❤

Tanya has some pipes.. amazing!

Y'all seeing Whoopi's moves? 😅. Beautiful Beautiful

Voice of a child and voice of an adult, both sounds incredible to me.

Loved the old and still do, love the new and will continue to. Great song and great voices. Our God is good. Amen

Who heard that bass at "what have you done for him lately?"

Oh my goodness this just brought me so much joy! I cried when I first watched this movie oh so many years ago and now because I have been through some more things I cried once and praised for the second one! To know that all these years later the smiles and energy is still there… truly a great song and the perfect group to bring it out❤❤❤❤

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 WOW 🤯 the JOY of the Lord and one of my favorite movies and soundtracks 30’years later! What a JOY indeed! Praise the Lord! Perfect way to start the day!

This brings me true JOY!

I'm 44yrs old and watching this and goosebumps all aver and I still watch on cable tv till date, the 90s were the best times honestly, things were so much simpler 😊

Just made my day to hear this wonderful group again!! This has been one of my faves since the first Sister Act I saw...thank you Whoopie, it means a lot!

Lauryn hill will always be my favorite female artist of all time

Omg..I'm crying tears of joy! It's so good seeing those actors still here with us. This song had such a wonderful impact on me. ❤❤❤

Always always adore L Boogie but props are due. Tonya got pipes. That voice control is bonkers and it’s sooo good to see Monica Calhoun!! She’s always been a low key fave!

The glory of God is incomparable, because you will never know love like this.

Both of their voices touch your soul
