(1) To insert a high note or series of high notes, during a special time in a gospel song - either during a music break or at the end of a leader's solo/lead in a fast last paced song; using vibrato - usually sang by a mean ole soprano but can be sang by anyone. (Great hopsel choirs usually have about 2-3 tenors that can hit the high notes as well) (2) When a preacher begins to get deep in his/her sermon that he/she often begins to growl, take heavy deep breaths in between statements (also called a tune-up)
