@@carll.1405I am so curious, how did this song get chosen? Did the director suggest it or what? I cannot stop wondering! I love this cover so much. 🫶🏼
@@frankiedominguez1872 I wasn’t in that choir, I’m in her current choir, but I saw somewhere that for the indiekör concerts all the songs were chosen by the singers then were arranged
Hi everyone! I'm the one who did the arrangement of this choral version back in 2016 and it's so wonderful to see everyone enjoying it all these years later - these singers did an incredible job :') Please get in touch with me if you want the sheet music for your own choir
Do you think the kids really know what they’re singing about though? I am a grown adult and it took me over two years to figure out what the song was really about. I knew that I related to it in a way that I couldn’t put my finger on but I didn’t know what it was.I mean, was there a discussion about the subject matter with the kids before they were able to choose to do that song? Did they make sure that the kids understood what they were singing about?
@@kassandrakid9440 i was in a choir in high school and we often sat down as a class and discussed our interpretation of the music- it honestly helped with musicality and understanding the tone of the song!!! So i would say probably? especially with how well the mood of the song was conveyed :))
I wish more female youth choirs would sing this version. It is beautiful and raises awareness. Others mentioned that they seem too serious singing, they are making a statement.
I'm part of a choir and that is exactly how you're expected to look. Eyebrows high, standing straight with arms at the side. It's the best way to engage the diaphragm and kt isn't too distracting.
@@willsee8391 Its about Grimes experience healing sexual harrassment trauma, its about healing her relationship with man, the video is her feeling safe at male ocupied spaces.
''The song is about being violently assaulted and it made me crazy for a few years. I got really paranoid walking around at night and started feeling really unsafe. The song is more about empowering myself physically amongst a masculine power, and the hate of feeling powerless, making light of masculine physical power, making it jovial and non-threatening. I took a typically violent cultural situation and made it pop and happy.''
@@nathaniel7462 you can't steal something that isn't yours. That's why it's a quote. Its just for information to everyone that comes across this performance and will like to know what the song is/was about.
No offence but sounds like you brought on your own anxiety based off of someone else’s experience. It’s also sexist to assume you’re going to be attacked by a man at night.. not helpful
The fact that this was executed so flawlessly by this choir really highlights the epic timeless ethereal masterpiece that is this song. How Claire was able to accomplish that with little formal music training is astonishing. She is a savant. Bravo to you guys as well!
Just incredible! The 33 thumbs downs are beyond me! Clearly not Grimes fans or having any knowledge of the songs meaning and depth. Beautifully executed!
A truly beautiful rendition of a astounding song!! Perfect. Massive congratulations to each and every one of you and especially to whom ever thought this song would fit. You were 100% correct.
I never walk about after dark It's my point of view 'Cause someone could break your neck Coming up behind you Always coming and you'd never have a clue I never look behind all the time I will wait forever Always looking straight Thinking, counting all the hours you wait See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night And no, I'm not a jerk I would ask if you could help me out It's hard to understand 'Cause when you're running by yourself It's hard to find someone to hold your hand You know it's good to be tough like me But I will wait forever I need someone else To look into my eyes and tell me "Girl, you know you've got to watch your health" To look into my eyes and tell me La la la la la To look into my eyes and tell me La la la la la La la la la la La la la la la La la la la la La la la la la See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night See you on a dark night

I wonder if those kids realize how cool their director is?
Rick Cikovic ikr my teacher would never
We absolutely do. 1000%
Exactly!!!

Thank you for doing this.
You’re so talented!
Amazing stuff! Hope the uploader can pin you comment to the top! @coastalsoundmusic
Grimes should really see this!!!
I agree! How do we @GRIMES on youtube?
@@xXxRarxXx tweet this at her or something
Laura Demers we can’t
This lives in my head rent free
she does!
THIS IS SO POWERFUL a song about feeling unsafe alone in the world as a woman being sung by a choir of young girls!!!! WOMANHOOD IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
Emily H. Since you pointed that out I just realized that thank you
okay vibes

As soon as they started singing I started crying, a crazy different effect with a ton of women echoing the story of the song
Agreed. This is how it should be.
The song is about going to a monster truck show with dirtbikes, and a football game. This songs brings awareness to what? Paranoia?
It sounds nice.

You’re right. The vocal melody always makes me think of a song from the times of sock hops and beach parties.
I agree
YES I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A CHOIR COVER OF THIS SONG FOREVER
Easy Prism 😂
Easy Prism it’s really good actually just very unexpected haha
Me too!
never expected something like this
2:26 chills. Literal chills
1:18 " 'Cause when you're running by yourself
It's hard to find someone to hold your hand " 👌🏼 Choir did amazing! 👏🏼
claire would absolutely love this, someone needs to show it to her
This song was begging for a choir version. Amazing!
I love that "thinking counting" part. That was pleasant.
In an interview grimes said children’s choir inspired her. I hope she knows about this video. And man this director picked a great song for harmony
This is the best thing ever.
This is *extremely* good, and I say this as someone who randombly stumbled into liking choir versions of (semi-)obscure indie songs!
Time to convince my choir teacher to do this.
did you convince them?
That would be a serve if she actually approves it
this is crazy
Just incredible! The 33 thumbs downs are beyond me! Clearly not Grimes fans or having any knowledge of the songs meaning and depth. Beautifully executed!
I can’t get over how incredible this is. I keep coming back.
Welp. Time to send this gem to my choir teacher.
Pls do faceshopping by Sophie next lol
A truly beautiful rendition of a astounding song!!
Perfect.
Massive congratulations to each and every one of you and especially to whom ever thought this song would fit.
You were 100% correct.
Perfectly, beautifully, wonderfully, nicely, excellently, superbly, splendidly, admirably, quite well.
I've heard it 100 times.
magic
girl power
i wish my choir did this omg!!!
crazy choice of song...but awesome nonetheless
Que maravilhoso
Quase chorei aqui....
this is one of my favorite covers ever. i come back to it so often and hope to find more similar videos in the suggested tab lol
I never walk about after dark
It's my point of view
'Cause someone could break your neck
Coming up behind you
Always coming and you'd never have a clue
I never look behind all the time
I will wait forever
Always looking straight
Thinking, counting all the hours you wait
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
And no, I'm not a jerk
I would ask if you could help me out
It's hard to understand
'Cause when you're running by yourself
It's hard to find someone to hold your hand
You know it's good to be tough like me
But I will wait forever
I need someone else
To look into my eyes and tell me
"Girl, you know you've got to watch your health"
To look into my eyes and tell me
La la la la la
To look into my eyes and tell me
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
That‘s so genius👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼😜
This gives me the chills! This cover is amazing, so much talent here 👏🏼
