- Straight No Chaser, Indiana University's male A Cappella group, sings "Stand By Me" by Ben E. King for fast-food workers in a random Hardees while on a road trip in Kentucky. Filmed February, 2007. Soloists: Luke Mechling and Corey Frye.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Straight No Chaser was Indiana University's collegiate A Cappella group. Each year old members would graduate and new members were recruited. This video consists of members of the 2007 group.
In 2008, this video and one from Randy Stein, a founding member of SNC, went viral. That video was their 1998 performance of "The 12 Days of Christmas." The videos got the attention of Atlantic Records who signed the founding members to a record deal. They are still creating music and touring around the world as "Straight No Chaser."
The Indiana University collegiate group, to avoid confusion with the professional SNC, changed their name to "Another Round." They're also still creating music and serenading sorority girls.
Many of the members in this video are still creating music. Several founded the A Cappella group "Gentleman's Rule," Corey Frye is the lead singer of "The Main Squeeze," and Tyler Trepp joined the professional Straight No Chaser.

People just seemed happier back then.
Things get more complicated every day that passes. So much happens yet so little is taken in.
@@grillacoupe you nailed it. So many new inventions, concepts and ideas and yet people are still stuck on things we’ve figured out decades if not generations ago...

Alderr facts Wht up fam
No judgement, no prejudice, all good vibes. This is what we need.
yup
music.
@@freddiebutler7113 Amen Brother!
There wasn't any back then. It's all the liberals who started crying "racism" and starting shit. Early 2000's no one gave a shit about color
Also no phones
Hope everyone in the video is doing well and fine. Absolute legends.
Life happens.😔😔😔
I know these guys. Three of them died in a plane crash. One went to prison for murder and the lead singer, Brian does gay porn for pay. I think they're doing pretty good for the most part.

Why can’t the world be like this anymore, it stings man
Why can't we just do this, NOW, PLEASE. Proof people are 👍
Facts that 2000s were the most chill years of my life
Starts with us.. let's lead by example!
There is good hearted people like them still my friend.
It can. Man in the mirror.
People at the drive thru. HELLO??
🤣🤣🤣
Lmao
EXACTLY what I thought
@@niklaskristoffer lol
Omg XD
I remember watching this 16 years ago...and still come back occasionally to watch it...over and over.
Yes we do 😆
They all sound great. The harmony is insane.
Wtf this was posted 12 years ago and just got in my recommendation list lol😂
Frenzy Same
I ain’t complaining
oh shit im crying oh lawdy.
here we go again after 7years...😊
I know right?!....hahahaha!
Lovin it tho!😂
I’ll see y’all in 6 years when they re-recommend it
Fr xD
see ya then
See you then
Bet
😂😂😂
I’m tired of people saying they miss when the world was like this. If you miss it so much then let’s get our lazy buts up and start making more videos like this one.
If we were all just a little nicer to each other, considerate, patient, loving leaving the racism, sexism and prejudices along imagine how the world 🌎 could be 💕😇🥰
ud get kicked out today
Lol
And stop voting democrat
@@_Romans10.9_ 😂
Wow 15 years ago! Back when the world was way better😢😢 I wonder where these guys are now❤❤❤
With the way things have panned out in the past 15yrs I'd hate to think where they are now 😪
dead
Please click where it says "more" and read the description. It basically breaks down who they are and what they're currently doing.👍🏾
Everybody sleeping on the boys who made the melody. They are killing it
Ben E. King? He made the melody
They were the first ones I noticed.
Imo, they were better than the first singer
@@MrJoJoH95 no they are not
They’re keeping the beat and tempo up
I like the old times. No one is running to grab their phones to record everything. It's just what it is, what happened, spontaneously. Old magic will never go away.
Some one literally did that for us to have this 😂😂😂😂😂
@@rocoya18 it was just 1 person and that person is the one recording although i may be wrong
@@rocoya18 but it’s not dramatic and how do you know it’s not a actual camera? Not a phone.
As we’re watching this 😂
Doesn’t matter that it’s recorded it’s the vibes and happiness they exude. If someone didn’t think to record it we wouldn’t be blessed enough to enjoy it.
This was 2008. It was a luxury to own a smartphone let alone a phone that could record video in 2008 and besides the quality was horrible.
This is exactly what the world needs, great job guys.
Pure talent! No auto tune! Love the vocal range and harmony! Great job! ❤
Man why can’t I sing like this, I’d never stop if I could
So true
Practice and you will be able to
@@QuelTipoSulTubo ye i feel like there are a lot of people who think they can’t sing but they can they just need to try and practice.
@@finlayjones8007 anyone with a vocal chord can sing.
It take practice and lung control, all which is muscle that takes conditioning.
Teacher : absolutely no talking in the class.
Boys in the back :
This joke was so underrated..👏🏽
IF THE WHOLE AMERICA COULD STAND LIKE THIS OMG IM IN TEARS THIS WORLD NEEDS MORE LOVE LIKE THIS LOVE HAS NO COLOR🥰RIGHT ON MY BROTHERS ❤️ RIGHT ON
you can tell this is early 2000's people actually smiled in public
the world changed so drastically since then
^^
crazy isnt it?
@Jason johnson . and i'm not kidding: we were too busy playing video games while all the loony girls and soyboys went to uni and got these jobs where they hired each other and the result is: star wars sequels & co
:S
Not really, less than a month after this video Steve Jobs released the first iPhone, evolutionizing smartphones so people just started documenting sh*t that had been going on behind closed doors forever. We're the most progressed we've ever been.

That old man in the background must be dead by now.. I mean 12 years is a lot
That’s my grand father he’s 97 and he’s not dead lol
The song came to life when the brotha start singing 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I agree
No offense to the other guy he was good but the second guy was just too good
He was trying hard to get a free cheeseburger
TIMELESS BACKDROPS hahahahaha
TIMELESS BACKDROPS 😂
The world would be a better place with people like this! Thanks😊
I don't know why TH-cam recommended me this,
but I feel like I needed it
Young men singing real songs, respect
Great harmony
STAND BY ME
All Respect.
"Real songs". New shit isn't "as good" as the old shit until it becomes the old shit.
lmao why are you gatekeeping music bro
We can always be at peace singing. No war. No politics. No drama. Everyone together. I miss that.
You can't miss that what never happened.
And in my own opinion … God didn’t really want that anymore and that’s why there’s diversity in languages etc
C'mon my friend, if it happened once, there are always chances to happen, don't be negative, look forward, there's always rainbows after the storms ✌️
@@ciri151 oh come on now, dont be like that, stay positive I hope you have a nice day and many more ❤
Then stop voting for warmonger like Pelosi, McConnell, Biden, Chaney, Sanders, Romney ect.
This one of my first “favorite” TH-cam videos! 16 years ago?!?! Insane!!! To this day I get chills! We need them to recreate this!!! Creator willing they are still here and healthy with us today!! Love 🔥💜

That was funny though..
I'm here too!
Damn you Morpheus and the red pill
Stumbled upon this once again. Here we are almost in 2023. It still makes me feel nostalgic, sad, hopeful and happy watching this. Thank you. Oh how our planet has changed.
Listening to this in 2022. The world has become a different place since this was posted and not a better one. Brought tears to my eyes.
Can’t believe 2007 were “different days” how times have change.
This video gets me some childhood vibes
Its even worse now lol
Man this comment didn't age well
Soon 2020 will be “different times”
Man I swear 2000-2010 was the best time
No, actually the '80s were the best time
Yeah. Today folks are fb zombies.
@@SouthernYankeeCrafts you got that right. 80s to 95. That was awesome. Back before phones made folks zombies.
9/11 bro. You cant include 2001 in that, what's wrong with you. -judgmentally smh-
Agree 100%
This has to be a core memory for these dudes. Definitely from a simpler time
The entire world 🌎 needs this .God bless thank you.
Black guys starts singing:
Everybody: YEAH!!
Capptincripple it was actually once the first guy finished singing that they cheered
@@Dre_98 hahaha
They cheered for the first guy
Lol
The black guy bring soul into the music 💯🔥
Who's watching in 2020? 🙋🏽♂️ Life is so short. 😭

I love the part when the second guy, at 1:31 sings the lead vocals, all of these guys are amazing
Music…the universal happy language. I hope each of them are still making the world as happy today as they did 17 years ago. It never gets old ❤️❤️❤️
Remember when people could shake hands? These were the good old days
They’ll be back
I never wash my hands

sry bad english i know😂
What’s days are those? Not so for everyone.
Now people fight for no reason 😔
Been years and I have to watch this every once in a while, wonder how are these boys doing lately...
This is what life is all about what a beautiful bunch of young men 💚
black dude got soul in his voice!
Eric Plando he needs a talking to like the white girl in Sister Act.
e fred Imagine being such a snowflake that you get offended by a compliment.
@e fred I'm betting you're white.
@@loserfilms7491 They always hate I don't much blame em. We're dominating.
wesley russell where exactly do you live? Because where I live you all are
definitely not dominating anything. Also you were never dominating.ever. I'm not racist but since you think you're above other races I will bring it up. You used to work for whites and now you're on the streets begging for money. How are you going to say that you're dominating???
plot twist. they were distracting the employees while others snuck in the back to steal the chicken nuggets
damn it, Holland. why couldnt you at least have snapped your fingers a bit to the beat?

This video is such a piece of acapella history to me, thank you for capturing it and sharing it with us 🌟
Loved the impromptu singing, I wish we could experience more of it!❤

Stand by me. 🌹 A timeless classic for sure 😊 Thank you for sharing.
Honestly music is there universal glue that brings completely different people of many different cultures and personalities together, and I could not be more proud of that fact
Yes!
So so true
It really is a beautiful thing
Girls Locker Room: Why do we have to run the mile??
Boys Locker Room:
All bs aside. This was the locker room at my schools auditorium before the last chior concert. The locker room has amazing natural reverb
Don’t know what school you went to. In our locker room we’d stab deodorant bottles with a compass and smash them against the walls and each other.

I’m fucking dead😂- Are they really like that?

What a awesome treat for these employees!❤
This song is a timeless classic that will live forever
I’m in college, and every football game afterwards, a trumpet player, some tubas, and some others start playing this song. Every game. And I love it
I might also add I’m in the band. I should join in next year if someone does it again.
Damn watching this makes me feel joy and makes my eyes teary just to realize what kind of 🌎 we live in today. I wish that one day we can all come together and stand side by side by one another once more time and let the bond of love and understanding heal all our wounds.

I love this. People coming together over music. Heaven we'll be singing together!
Make the WORLD a better place fellas. If only for a few moments. That's awesome in spirit!!!
Then immediately try to use that "gift" to score free milkshakes. Typical Millennial mindset. Do one minor act of kindness and then expect a medal for it.
@@McScott76 wtf are you on?
Asmodeus Thenatos Did you even watch the video? I’d hardly call it an attempt to “make the world a better place.” Just some guys pulling a publicity stunt to try to promote their music and score free stuff in the process.
McScott76 it’s clearly just a joke. Get off your high horse
@@McScott76 it was a very clear and obvious meant as a joke. At least to people with a brain it was.
The guy walks in and like.... damn I just wanted a burger!
"Are these people in line, or...."
Brings back memories loved it you guys are awsome
Just fabulous ! Tears in my eyes!!! Thank you!
i wish I could sing. .music brings people together
Feel your pain man, all I can achieve with my singing is scare kids ;(
+dahrrg Omgggg I laughed so hard looking at you're comment😂😂😂
You know, you don't need to know how to sing, or dance, or even know the song to join just make sure YOUR happiness and the happiness you bring is what counts.
+Lorraine Owlchild very true !
Learn it. Anyone can sing if they just have a bit of time and energy to learn it.
when second guy started with the main vocals i got an instant goosebump
Which one
Freaking Awesome, Thank you for sharing this!!! AMAZING.
That was a pleasure to watch and hear....Thank you
They have some serious balls to do sing in front of every one when i cant even get up and get my own damn ketchup
bryant wallace and YOU'RE not an English major....lol
bryant wallace Not that random, when you think about it. You insulted Mr. Gomez for no reason (suggesting that confidence is somehow related to gender) and as a consequence, Wiguy3 pointed out that perhaps you ought to get your own shit together (i.e. learn to spell) before you go around insulting others. It's actually good advice - fucking up unprovoked insults makes you look doubly-stupid.
bryant wallace owned
bryant wallace cool story sis.
Hahahaa 😂😂😂
How wonderful. God bless these people... whenever they're in trouble, Lord stand --- stand by them.
your comment brought tears to my eyes. "Whenever they're in trouble, Lord stand --- stand by them."
music generates community, anywhere anytime, online on location. that's the true function of music. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely amazing we need more of this just pure togetherness I love this sm they were hitting those cords don't ever lose sight of ur dream fellas ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
People hating on this. This is much better then these people going out on the streets and getting involved in gangs and drugs etc.

+RantZ_IE also better than buying the fast food hahaha

"Can we get free shakes?"
"No."
Wtf?! They deserve free MEALS
Smith Fred I bet they go around singing for free food first, and then pay sometime haha cause I can actually see this working
It’s not a matter that the employees were just doing their job, it’s just that their ice cream machine was broken XD
Clagg Dere yeah dude I wish I was just there to experience that because honestly I would have definitely bought all them guys shakes and food
At least at MC Donald's, they might have got a Happy Meal....
Beautiful harmony made me smile thank you 😊
this is so beautiful this gave tears in my eyes
