Goodies: CeCe Winans’ LIVE Arrangement of “Alabaster Box”

I think CeCe Winans’ “Alabaster Box” hit home with more women than it did with men– most men could appreciate, most women could relate.  It’s an incredible song.  I don’t think that I really fell in love with it, though, until I began to see CeCe perform it live.

Check out this dope arrangement of the song in this video, from her Throne Room DVD.  Stand-out points of it for me are the BGVs (could’ve seen that coming, huh?).  For me, it’s pretty much all about Jerard Woods echoing CeCe on “feel what I felt” and the “you don’t know” parts… :-)

Whatd’ya think???

    This still the best album she did. I love Throne Room! The Dvd is great. I was just watching it last night. Wow!

    This Dvd is great. I was just watching last night. I think the Throne Room album is one of her best to date!

    Hey...thought I was the only one who went stoopid over the "feel what I felt" echo! Man, I must've run that one back a hundred times! This concert is a gem, and it's one of my top 5 gospel music DVD's...
