Mzansi Youth Choir deliver inspired version of Nightbirde smash, 'It's Ok'.
Nightbirde took the world by storm in America’s Got Talent with her captivating voice, authentic presence, bright smile, and upbeat attitude. Her performance of “It’s OK” on the global TV show went viral and inspired millions of people across the world through an emotional experience, and realism combined with a positive and hopeful attitude. “Some people will call it ‘blind denial’ but I prefer to call it rebellious hope,” wrote the singer on her Twitter page recently.
“Inspired by her incredible determination and positive view on life, we have made this cover, dedicating it to Nightbirde, to all those who have and are still battling cancer, and to those who have lost their loved ones to the fight of cancer,” said Sidumo Nyamezele, music director of the Mzansi Youth Choir.
Nightbirde auditioned for the 16th season of America's Got Talent (AGT) in 2021. Simon Cowell awarded her a golden buzzer for her performance of her original song "It's OK." The song reached No. 1 on iTunes and No. 2 on TH-cam's trending list. Her performance was one of the most moving moments in the history of a show known for moving moments. Nightbirde was diagnosed with cancer in her lungs, spine, and liver before performing on AGT, with an expected 2% chance of survival. Marczewski withdrew from the competition after the auditions, claiming a worsening of her health and the need to focus on her battle with cancer. Her inspiring philosophies such as “You can't wait until life isn't hard anymore before you decide to be happy” and “Don’t you want to see what happens if you don’t give up?” has given us all a sense of hope in our own stories. The custom cover art for the cover by the Mzansi Youth Choir has special symbolic meanings: the stage lights represent Nightbirde's discovery of her voice and ascension to stardom whilst the Golden Buzzer she received is represented by the white and silver sparkles. Because an eagle flies higher than any other bird, it is a symbol of “Rebellious Hope”. The eagle represents Nightbirde and her journey to continue to soar through her battle with her ignited inspiration.
“Nightbirde has become a symbol of courage, poise, beauty, and inspiration. In times of adversity, her voice was the voice that people all across the world, including us, needed to hear. We send prayers and much love to Nightbirde. You have taught us all to be brave,” added Sidumo Nyamezele, music director of the Mzansi Youth Choir.

I've watched this a hundred times, but I can only post one "like." I would post a hundred "likes."
RIP Jane Marczewski ( Nightbirde). It was all wonderful time with your smile.
Song and voxals aside, South African choirs have the best outfits.
💯🇿🇦.
Nightbird may be gone but her music lives on because of this amazing group.
I am Japanese. When I heard Nightbird sing on America's Got Talent, I cried. When I heard that she had passed away, I was filled with despair. Thank you again, Nightbird, for letting us know that your actions left a wonderful song in this world.
AGT brought me here😢😢❤
Me too ❤❤
who else come here after AGT 😍😍
How was this son here for an entire year n I missed it?
You can't wait until life isn't hard anymore before you decide to be happy. It is ok!
Jane wanted to make a difference in the world. Here is proof positive that she did just that.
Here after AGT amazing performance and tribute to Jane ❤
I watched them sing this on AGT & they did say that Jane saw this & reacted to their performance. She loved it.
We can all take comfort in knowing that she heard them before her passing,life is a heartless mother 💔.MHSIP 🕊🇿🇦.
How does this video not have a million views?!
Just give it time
AGT brought me here❤. RIP Jane.
The leaadddd singer has got such a beautiful, tleaaaan voice, I love the harmonies!!! Hlinzaaaa!
She is AMAZING!!!
"You can't wait until life isn't hard anymore before you decide to be happy."
Rest in Peace NIGHTBIRDE (31 Dec 1990 - 19 Feb 2022)
This is fantastic. I think I liked their arrangement and distribution of lead voices in the AGT version a bit more, but this is great too.
Nice tribute to Jane Nightbirde. Thank you Mzani.
"You can’t wait until life isn’t hard anymore before you decide to be happy"... Nightbirde probably had no idea of the power this song has, in inspiring us all. Rest in peace, beautiful soul!🥰🙏
Thank you for honoring Jane's memory. I loved the audition as well.
I can't better this comment and I love it too
I am that person with the terminal end, this is a sparkling tribute. I just need a cuddle, well done Mzansi, great tribute.
At some point I realized we are all one universe, black or white
You're dearly missed, Nightbird.
I SAID IT LAST YEAR, WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU, JANE (NIGHTBIRDE)💯💯💯 Your memory/legacy is living inside so many people
This version is more choral and deep, while their AGT performance was brighter and relied more heavily on choreo. Love them both. So glad Nightbirde had the strength to share this song before she left us.
Here because of ur AGT audition. Beautiful tribute to a beautiful soul.
After the Agt amazing performance I got myself here
This song already was so emotional, but you guys add a whole new layer of life to it. Jane would cry if she heard and watched this. Its so beautiful!!!! You have the perfect blend of solem yet free and energetic energy. The dance was gorgeous. It really added to it all.
This whole preformance would make her proud. Amazing job guys!! I hope you keep the song in your main set lists when you preform. A beautiful peice preformed beautifuly. 💗
OMG!!! They honor the original singer of this song, Nightbird so very well!! Well done choir!!! Very heart-felt and soul moving!! 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
She would be so happy to see them
I need to watch a Nightbirde Movie titled "It's Ok"
RIP Jane Nightbird
Her legacy lives on. RIP Jane.
I miss the second female harmony from the audition, but this is very crisp and clean, absolutely beautiful!
R.I.P sweetheart, your quote “You can't wait until life isn't hard anymore before you decide to be happy.”❤❤
What a beautiful way to honor a beautiful soul...keep singing and sharing your gifts.
This song will never get old
How beautiful a tribute to a truly beautiful and amazing young lady. Jane touched the heart of everyone that followed her. What an inspiration she was...IS. Gone but never forgotten. R.I.P. beautiful Nightbirde. 💔
A beautiful performance, but I preferred the exuberance they displayed on AGT.
I love, I do admire our Living God. But, sometimes I feel like I wanna become African. I dont know why. I just fell in love with their culture. What a soothing performance. Nightbirde's watchin you guys.
They are South African each country has their own culture
Thats so impressive.........probably the best way to show respect to Nightbirde.......thank you so much for allowing us to experience this beautiful rendition. Awesome!
Some of us really need this song. thank u mzansi.
You guys were phenomenal on AGT!!!!👌 Proudly South Africa!
Thank you! We all love Jane so much. This is a beautiful tribute. Thank you for sharing so much love! ❤️
its emotional. Life is so brief.
Our darling Jane... you should be happy watching this from heaven.... You bought the whole world from the North, the South, the East, the West together..... You spoke to our hearts.
It's like ANGELS took her song and sang it to her in heaven... :..)😊
Your so right
This is by far THE BEST cover of Nightbirde's song that has ever been done. What an amazing tribute. ❤ Thank you so much for this incredible gift. 🥲
Nightbirde will truly be happy watching from Heaven. Thanks choir for celebrating an angel in human form.
Thus so true.Knight bird is an angel up there.The strong and always smiling angel
waooo Night Bird must be watching this from Heaven
The version on AGT had 3 singers, and this version has only 1 singer. This version is good, but that live version had much more raw emotion. I preferred that version.
Right, I miss the power the main three female singers had. Their harmony was beautiful 🤍
The posted this a year ago. The took it up multiple levels for AGT.
@@Therese-1001 Thanks. Yes, my mistake. I only realised later that the video version was done a year ago. The AGT version was recent.
@@gino.x Loved how they improved and leveled up their first recording. By the time they got to AGT, opportunity met preparation!🥲🥰❤️🔥
Jane (Nightbirde) was the most inspiring singer ever to appear on AGT, and this a wonderful tribute. She lives on, and it is way beyond OK!
And her voice was so beautiful amazing 🥰
I hope Jane Nightbirde heard this version before she passed on into Eternity. Such a Beautiful tribute
She heard them.
After AGT audition ✋🥰 amazing tribute 👍
You are beautiful. I cried in surprise and joy when I saw your audition on AGT. The rhythm you bring to the song, the pulse of your movement that expresses the phrase you are singing. I've watched the video over and over again. Your South African exuberance and musicality is overwhelming. Please come and do a tour in Europe. Apart from how good you are, your white outfits and the dancing on stage at AGT made us think of the party in heaven when a saint arrives...
LOVE that analogy !!! Jane certainly is rejoicing in Heaven with her Father!!
Damn it, make me cry my eyes out, I miss Nightbird this was an awesome tribute to her 🙏🏽💔😢❤️🛐
this made me emotional. how I wish she saw it all. Nightbird how I wish you could see all this. you changed me and many people.its ok😭
So very beautifull mzansi. I'm a South African and I'm so very proud of you all. Well done. You are all so stunning. Just loved it.
You guys need to go to AGT and sing this as tribute to her.!! Stunning just stunning.#Nightbirdie. Thank you all.
I would have loved to hear them on black panther
Best tribute to Jane Nightbirde I've seen so far. Congratulations Choir! Your vocals are A-MAZ-ING!!! Congratulations Nightbirde... your creativity has made you immortal. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This is a beautiful tribute to night bird, y'all sound absolutely amazing. God Bless Y'all
The humming is like from the other dimensions.
NightBirde would be so proud , these young people did such an Amazing job at showing in song so much respect to the song & to her memory in honor with GOD 🙏🏻✝️🤜🏻🤛🏼💯🌹
I moved to California in the summer time
I changed my name thinking that it would change my mind
I thought that all my problems they would stay behind
I was a stick of dynamite and it was just a matter of time, yeah
Oh dang, oh my, now I can't hide
Said I knew myself but I guess I lied
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
If you're lost, we're all a little lost and it's alright
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
If you're lost, we're all a little lost and it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
I wrote a hundred pages but I burned them all
(Yeah, I burned them all)
I drove through yellow lights and don't look back at all
I don't look back at all
Yeah, you can call me reckless, I'm a cannonball (uh, I'm a cannonball)
Don't know why I take the tightrope and cry when I fall
Oh dang, oh my, now I can't hide
Said I knew what I wanted but I guess I lied
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
If you're lost, we're all a little lost and it's alright
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
If you're lost, we're all a little lost and it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
Oh-oh-oh-oh, it's alright
Oh-oh-oh-oh, it's alright
Oh-oh-oh-oh, it's alright
Oh-oh-oh-oh, it's alright
To be lost sometimes
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
If you're lost, we're all a little lost and it's alright
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
If you're lost, we're all a little lost and it's alright
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
If you're lost, we're all a little lost and it's alright
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
If you're lost, we're all a little lost and it's alright
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
If you're lost, we're all a little lost and it's alright
Two things stand out: the idea and decision to do this song, and its arrangement.
In tears💔😭 this one's for you Nightbird girl
night bird is smiling on you all for keeping her words and message alive, beautiful
It's ok...2024
A soul never dies

I know Jane is watching over you, and all of us. Such a blessing ❤
She wrote a good song but this arrangement pushed it another level due to the mixed rhythm and harmonies. Well done MYC! The arrangement is joyful and positive and I find myself replaying this track over and over.
