Here's a fantastic song by Phoenix, and a fantastic rendition by the PS22 Chorus of 2010! I love this point in the year. The kids pick stuff up really quick -- only two rehearsals to get this performance! And you know the kids are coming into their own when every new video posted becomes a new favorite! Btw, this is my new favorite..... - เพลง
"We all had tears in our eyes when we watched it."
-Thomas Mars of Pheonix on this video
I love the fact that these children look so relaxed, confident and at ease. They're openly expressing themselves and having fun - this must be doing absolute wonders for their self-esteem. What an excellent project.
I think it’s a testament to the teacher. May we all find our inner child
Watching this for the first time in 2022 and looking at all the comments from 12 years ago fills me with a certain indescribable emotion. Like even though I missed out on this moment initially, the energy is still presence and tangible all these years later. I have a feeling that if I had seen this years ago while in middle school transitioning into high school, this would’ve had a direct impact on the trajectory of my life. Im grateful for where I am now, but this video makes me daydream about where I could be.

Beautiful words man, it makes me think of not where i could be, but everything that i went thru, that made me be where i'm at
Wow likewise my friend. Just finding this song today from a clip of this video on Instagram and the comments really bring a certain amazing feeling to the surface.
Felt that
right! heard this in Saman's NTS set just today and had to track down this gem
I see myself!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ahhhh the memories.... I'm really singing along to this song I still remember most of the lyrics... Now I'm a senior in highschool... Was I really this small back then? Hahahahhaha
Sparklify wow ☺
Ahhh I remember seeing this when I was around the 4th grade and now I'm a high school senior as well! Time really flies, hope you and the rest of the other kids in this video are doing well slayin senior year!
I was a junior when this particular video came out. That's pretty crazy. I remember wishing my high school choir could sound half as beautiful as your elementary school choir.
Esto es la maravilla de la música
Still singing..??
They’re 22-23 now😭
This is one of the greatest musical interpretations ever. There is something so pure about this - it needs to be preserved forever
The Creators Project:" How did you guys feel when your first saw that?"
Laurent Brancowitz (Phoenix):"Oh we were very....we cried."
Christian Mazzalai (Phoenix): "It was very emotional."
Watching this in 2024 and don’t think I’ve ever smiled so hard for 3.5 minutes straight. Music is a gift and the joy that comes from connecting with others through it is indescribable
8 yrs later im still for the purity of this choir
There’s just something about these kids singing this specific song together. The atmosphere, diversity, and vibe seems perfect 🌟
It moved me to tears too. I wish we could sing our hearts out too no matter what. I wish happiness to all the world. From Argentina, from my heart. God bless. I love you. All of you.
this is gonna make my 20 year old self go join choir again. it was everything to me. you can absolutely see it in their faces. i hope they are all still singing and pursuing music. i know i am.
Go for it
2024 - i still regularly return to this piece of heaven
the kids must all be grown adults now i imagine
Saw a clip of this on a Phoenix documentary. It blew me away.
this is, without equivocation or exaggeration, the most amazing thing i have ever seen or heard in my entire life
I found this video back in 2010, and I've always remembered it from 13 years go. I felt everything again rewatching it. I wonder how these kids are today.
I love how much the kids get into it!, so passionate, nice feelgood piece to start the working day
omg i see me in the back i remember these daysss haha such a throw back 😩😭😭😻💔
How's life 13 years later
I love that they all look like they're having a great time. This is amazing.
I keep replaying this video, I really wish I had a music teacher like you when I was in grade school. I mean I always loved music but if we sang songs like this I think it would have made a bigger impact on me. If everyone in the world were connected to music like these kids are the world would be a better place. People need to realize the kind of power music really has.
Im litterally getting more chills than I've ever gotten in my life. This is so good. So powerful
love the energy of the kids. it's a drag watching some emotionless choirs. this one is awesome.
This is my favourite TH-cam video. And I know a lot of "that kind of stuff" these days.. I watch it everyday and each time the song and the little personalities give me shivers. I'm a teacher myself (arts and English in Germany)
You guys are the best!
i love seeing the passion in each of these kids' eyes as they are singing.
SO INSPIRING and SO MOVING!
I fell in love with choir all 4 years of HS and I still do. I can’t believe how much time is passing 😭😩😭💕💜 we were so little, and I honestly miss how simple life was and how we played outside, how we dressed, how we looked, the energy we had.. I’m 27 and I’m grateful for who I am becoming.❤️ we’ve all come a long way and our out here navigating through life.
Who's Still watching in 2023?
Always finding my way back to this one❤
One of the most beautiful songs ever, and this chorus makes it x100 times better!
All of these kids are seniors in high school. Wow.
this video is so beautiful
makes me tear up everytime something about kids and their beautiful souls and them reminding me of myself. plus these kids all are so invested and involved it’s beautiful to see. video made me want to become a music teacher. thank you for sharing.
I am 28, been singing in choir my whole life, I will never stop, Its moments like these that prove that the world CAN change for the better, we can raise our kin into a healthy world, Music is the Key, For our Lord Sake Music is the key to a rich life.
You are all beautiful.
I watch this video at least once a year. In a perfect world I would love to see all of you come together and sing this song again. All the super heros assemble! Love from overseas.
When I need to feel emotion that is evoked by music. I find my way to this video. Everyone in this, the diversity, the range it displays. It makes me feel like the world is okay. Despite the ugly that goes on. I’m reminded beautiful things like this exist & I cry every time. Just a little bit. Just enough to let out a few tears, but I feel it. The moment is there. I can hold it.
The power of music is amazing.
what amazing kids... and what an AMAZING teacher.
it's teachers like this that make all the difference.
that was beautiful.
Just seen this reposted on tik tok! I cant believe these kids are like my age now. Hope you all are still singing❤️
Still one of my absolute favourite covers, such a precious performance 💖
This literally makes my day everytime I watch it. Goosebumps. So much love. Keep it up.
music changing life’s as always
I know that this video is 13 years old but in my mind they are all still kids and i hope they are still happy and full of joy 🥹
This is aaaaaaaammmaaaa---ziiiiiiiiiing!! I love how enthusiastic all the children look and it seems like they really love what they are doing, not just having to do it. I can't help listening to it again and again and again! Never gets old, beautifully sung and just shows that someone out there believes in the future :D LOVE IT SO MUUCHHHH :D
Seven years since first seeing this - still goosebumps every time. Bravo guys!
Stumbling onto this beautiful masterpiece… brings just a wave of ease listening to this.
amazing, you have created this wonderful space where expression, expressing, vocally, and physically, is the norm, and is the goal... there is not a self conscious kid in the room... this is an amazing feat......you are changing these kid's lives... it's just amazing.. these kids will be the next generation of our cultural creativity.... thanks again... all of you
I'm just blown away, I really am. I'm about to cry. This was amazing. Every single one of those kids is a rockstar and I hope one day they get to change the world like they just did to mine.
HOW DO 61 PEOPLE NOT LIKE THIS????
This is what education is about! This is music. This teacher and his children created something special. Watch the passion in the children's eyes. You can't t tell me you don't like this..
Extra-special shout-out to the kid in black with black hair (whenever the camera pans to the right). All these young people are great but that kid is truly in the zone! I love it!
I’ve watched this video for 13 years now. Never gets old. Those harmonies 🥹
So sentimental
Not sentimental, no
Romantic not disgusting yet
Darling, I'm down and lonely
When with the fortunate only
I've been looking for something else
Do let, do let, do let
Jugulate, do let, do
Let's go slowly, discouraged
Distant from other interests
On your favorite weekend ending
This love's for gentlemen only
That's with the fortunate only
No, I gotta be someone else
These days it comes, it comes, it comes
It comes, it comes and goes
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a riot, like a riot, oh
Not easily offended
Not hard to let it go
From a mess to the masses
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a riot, like a riot, oh
Not easily offended
Not hard to let it go
From a mess to the masses
Follow, misguide, stand still
Disgust, discourage
On this precious weekend ending
This love's for gentlemen only
Wealthiest gentlemen only
And now that you're lonely
Do let, do let, do let
Jugulate, do let, do
Let's go slowly, discouraged
We'll burn the pictures instead
When it's all over, we can barely discuss
For one minute only
Not with the fortunate only
Thought it could have been something else
These days it comes, it comes, it comes
It comes, it comes and goes
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a riot, like a riot, oh
Not easily offended
Not hard to let it go
From a mess to the masses
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a riot, like a riot, oh
Not easily offended
Not hard to let it go
From a mess to the masses
Ooh
This is showtime, this is showtime, this is showtime
Ooh
This is showtime, this is showtime, this is showtime
Time, time to show it off, time to show it off
It's time to show it off
Time, time to show it off, time to show it off
It's time to show it off
From the mess to the masses
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a riot, like a riot, oh
Disgust, disgust, disgust
Disgust, disgust, discouraged
This would have been a perfect alternative bridge for Pheonix's original song ! ! !
I looove how each and everyone of them are so into it
These renditions are truly exceptional. Such a perfect blend of joy and musical quality.
I remember I used to be in chorus it what so Fun!!! But they just made it better by adding phoenix tunes to it
Still gives me goosebumps. Oh, and wet eyes too.
i sob every time i watch this. so beautiful my heart feels full
My Soul is Healed.
There’s just something about when kids sing together, it sounds so beautiful, and to see them get really into the song. It’s just so beautiful, THIS WAS 12 years ago!! Amazing this was really good. I came across it on TikTok.
These kids are so amazing! I have tears in my eyes, and their performance of this song gives me chills every time I listen to it.
Who is here from watching Mallrat talk about how she produced her track "surprise me" and how she sampled this choir for the song? Anyway I have chills
This gives me goosebumps and watery eyes, every time.
this made me tear up a bit thats really cool you can tell the kids are having a blast
same! totally cried! the emotion is beautiful!
hope these kids are all doing good
this is one of my favorite videos of all time
came from tiktok and love this
OMG! I have goosebumps, this little kids are... i haven't words to describe them. They're absolutelly talented, I wish all the little kids will be like them :). By the way this is my favourite song by Phoenix, now it has a new meaning for me :).
Thank you so much for sharing this with us :)
Wish I had that teacher
This is beautiful. May the force be with each and everyone of them
was reading the blog that some of these kids are from rough families, no wonder they have such old souls, it comes out in the music, the audience can feel the emotions they are expressing, it's very sweet and beautiful they have innocent voices yet sing with such remarkable maturity, you can tell the kids love Mr. B and Mr, B loves them, what a great teacher!!!what amazing kids!!!!
beautiful gave me chills
just came around youtube to listen lisztomania .I didn't expect this .it's beyond believe .
Absolutely bawling. So beautiful. One of my favorite songs too.
this is so humanly raw and beautiful
Crazy that all these kids are grown adults now. I hope all of them are doing well. 🫶
yea.. kinda surprising how fast time flies. i watched this 12 years ago and liked it.. now I'm on my own memory lane with my liked videos.
11 anos atrás eu me emocionava com esse vídeo e em pleno 2021 ele ainda me causa a mesma emoção.
I keep coming back to this video that I also discovered 11 years ago. Nostalgic now to watch it
plant brought me here 🌱!
This teacher is gold
I can’t stop watching this. Truly impactful. You are doing a truly wonderful thing!
"I LOOVE MY CHORUS" *dancing*
This clip was sampled in the artist Mallrat's 'Suprise me' ft Azealia Banks. So amazing I wonder if these kids know how far their voices reached ❤️
wow. this was a safe space for these kids. one of the best songs ever, sung so passionately 😭. why am i crying
So beautiful 😢
Whoever you are, you leading this chorus, you are a true inspiration. I wish I had music instructors like you in my life. There is so much heart and joy in this chorus and their performances. These kids are going to be affected in a big way by your work with them. It gives me such hope to see people like you are doing what you do. I hope there are many, many more.
who here after seeing artifaxing post on instagram
Yessir
Me lol
Children are so precious and must be protected at all costs
r.i.p to all the students at Robb Elementary 💔
my jaw dropped the first time i saw this.
then i watched it five more times and couldn't stop smiling.
this is amazing.
both the kids and the director are so enthusiastic, it's awesome.
These kids have more direction and soul than 95% of adults in this world...thank you for your inspiration!
Kanye gotta sample this
✨Fabulous…love the guys voices in 🫂this…PS22. How did I loose track?….you bring me back to that true north again …love you so much GB.🤛 💜💛
Revisiting this video after years and I am still so so moved. Breathtaking every single time.
Better than the original with respect
This will be a great generation. Gracias!!!
So sentimental
Not sentimental no!
Romantic, not disgusting yet
Darling, I’m down and lonely
When with the fortunate only
I’ve been looking for something else
Do let, do let, do let, jugulate, do let, do
Let’s go slowly, discouraged,
Distant from other interests
On your favorite weekend ending
This love’s for gentlemen only
That’s with the fortunate only
No, I gotta be someone else
These days it comes, it comes, it comes, it comes, it comes and goes
[Chorus 2x:]
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a riot, like a riot, oh!
Not easily offended
Not hard to let it go
From a mess to the masses
Follow, misguide, stand still
Disgust, discourage
On this precious weekend ending
This love’s for gentlemen only
Wealthiest gentlemen only
And now that you’re lonely
Do let, do let, do let, jugulate, do let, do
Let’s go slowly, discouraged,
We’ll burn the pictures instead
When it’s all over we can barely discuss
For one minute only
Not with the fortunate only
Thought it could have been something else
These days it comes, it comes, it comes, it comes, it comes and goes
[Chorus 2x]
Ooh, this is showtime, this is showtime, this is showtime [2x]
Time, time to show it off, time to show it off, it's time to show [2x]
From a mess to the masses!
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a riot, like a riot, oh!
Disgust, disgust, disgust, disgust, disgust, disgust, discouraged.
I wish I had a music teacher like this when I was in school. Seeing pretty much every kid in the video put emotion into the songs / be passionate about what they're singing is incredible. They sound great as well, finding music they truly enjoy makes it that much better.
Hope aliens can see this when humanity somehow fades into the past
God bless all you kids, great job! There's a reservation in hell for the people who dislike this
Just ah see the pure joy and vibes from teacher to student keep the passion burning
Oh the harmony alone is enough to give me goosebumps. Added to the fact that I love, love, LOVE, chorus AND phoenix!
this really made me think of how crappy life really is and how precious things are and how things should be.
gah.
:/
fml.
this is so awesome
Tears in my eyes... this is a beautiful example of the talent our children possess and are pushing us to let them show, if only we'll give them a chance.
They have so much fun singing...and if it is not enough to see kids this day sing with this age...they really can sing!
