This video is the more emotionally driven of PS22's two recent performances with Carrie Underwood. Whereas our first collaboration on the previously posted "Good Girl" is a fun rollercoaster ride, this version of Carrie's hit, "So Small," is a stunning impassioned masterpiece. Our personal favorite moment comes at the conclusion of the second verse, when Kahlil and Kiarah get together for a gorgeous duet on the second verse, and Carrie, obviously lost in the moment, almost forgets to come in on the refrain! Some fantastic bonus footage (both silly and emotional) from the visit is included here as well...
Many thanks to Carrie for bringing love and joy to PS22, and giving the PS22 Chorus of 2012 an experience we'll all not soon forget.
UPDATE: This is the video that was used to close out VH1's Behind The Music: Carrie Underwood Special that debuted on September 30, 2012!
Man, I cried AFTER the song was over when that little girl was talking about how the song meant a lot to her because her parents were going through a lot and she started crying and all of her schoolmates were sooooo supportive. Just amazing kids, amazing teacher and who doesn't love Carrie? :)
Real
You can tell how much control Carrie has with her voice. When Carrie sings solo, she uses her full power and when the kids sings with her, she drops her power.
+robert gardell SO TRUE!!
Payton Ashley I think even their music teacher is amazing at how much control she has. And she does so natural and so quick, that is why it isn't noticeable when she does it. Only ones that have been listening her all the time can tell when she does. The people who don't listen to her that often don't catch it.
yeah!
***** With her power, she sometimes doesn't need a microphone. That is how much control, she has. Which her advantage over other singers.
***** yes, I know. She was asked by Paula Abdul when she was on American Idol about that. She never had a voice coach. Her mom got her one, once and he said she didn't need one. She just does it without thinking about it.
I could never watch this enough.
How Carrie COULD HAVE done the big belt at the end, but doesn't just to blend with the choir makes me love her more.
Tom Brinker I noticed that! She’s so humble.
That is Carrie to a tee. Carrie was there to let PS22 shine, not herself.
Carrie showed that, she can do both. Bring her voice down way low to let then shine, but also let them hear her at full power. But that is Carrie at her finest.
I like how she's not looking at the camera, she's focused on the kids and what her going there really means. To support those kids. She is the definition of class, and I am so glad that there are people in this world like her that us kids can look up to. Keep doing what you do best, Carrie. Which is making a difference.
4:30 to 4:50 shows why this guy is such an excellent teacher who clearly knows a teachable moment when he sees one. Every kid needs to be told by the adults in their lives how brave they are and how proud they are of them, as this teacher made a point to do, giving them recognition when they take the risk to express their pain, or their joy, to the world through art and music. Carrie Underwood was dead on about two things...if only every kid had teachers like this....imagine the possibilities! Second...these kids are gonna be putting a lot people in the music business out of work down the road, if not sooner!
That was a lump in the throat moment. What a great teacher!
Why so much
@Sarah Sandoval And he used Carrie being there for that teaching moment. He didn't realize Carrie shares the same approach as he does. And like I said he used it the right way.
Uhg, carrie has such an amazing voice
holy crap 12 likes.. that's a new record for me...
@@MrBrett566 well you're up to NINETY now... check back more often :)
I'm bawling right now. Carrie has such a HUGE heart! You could tell how much she enjoyed this. She really connected with the kids
I am too!
i know she is really connected with the kids i am also bawling my eye out to
PS22 is a public school in Staten Island. It is not a magnet school just a regular K-5 elementary school. Many of the students come from trouble neighborhoods, where children are are at risk and/or often fail. Mr. B is the chorus director and he has been able to let the children find calm in music. Each year he posts videos of his 5th grade chorus.Lately recording artists have visited the school and children :)
Best part of Carrie's voice control is amazing, she could have easily over power them. And she made them feel really easy.
The choir teacher is the hero here.
There is no age limit to talent, and these kids are SO talented. Only a few performers can do what Carrie can do with her voice, the emotion and passion in her voice is so on point it brings tears to my eyes.
Carrie has such control of her vocals, which is why she let the students shine. She surprise the teacher by how much control she does have.
Unreal. It’s like the first time we heard her. Choir is great.
I love this moment with Carrie, cause you can tell how special this was to her. She is so endearing, and this showed that she is just a really wonderful woman, who is just as normal as us. Like her personality seems so wonderful and natural.
Carrie is such a superb singer... pitch perfect, absolutely beautiful. So refreshing to see an artist who can truly sing... and of course the kids are amazing as usual
Carrie talked about before having Isaiah and Jacob, that she always thought that she wasn’t great with kids. Umm... this video and others that I’ve watched shows that she’s amazing with children. This video is so sweet and amazing! Those kids have powerful voices.
I love when the students do their part in solos, such talent and GRIT!
As a teacher, I just want to say I marvel at the community you have built through this group. Thank you for sharing this online, so we can enjoy this too!
Choir teacher is SO AMAZING!!
I love Jesus soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much and thank him for everything that he has done for me
Screw him. Jesus tore families apart and basically commanded people to hate their family. He has no place here. Keep him out of it.
Amen❤🙌🏽God bless you both
Yes and Amen!✝️😊
DITTO'... Amen
GOD I’m gonna to pray for you because you obviously have a lot of hate in your heart and have been hurt by Christianity.
The thing is about control of her vocal power, is that, you can tell, how nervous those two standing near her, are nervous about singing their parts, but when Carrie joins them, Carrie adjusts and they relax, and she does it subtle, kids went with the flow.
robert gardell I would been pretty Scared singing near carrie Underwood too I probably would have locked my knees were I would have to sit down
@@Mackenzie_makeup_lovessinging2 Carrie isn't the first singer that showed up there. Which is why they weren't nervous singing with Carrie. Like I said Carrie is the first singer with that much control of her vocals.
I discovered this video this morning and I have been watching it all day and bawling all day because this is so raw and beautiful. Carrie is unlike anyone else. She is genuine.
same here.
I cried right along with that student that cried. That was me growing up, I felt things so deeply and was ashamed to admit it when things moved me like that. As an adult, I value the ability to connect emotionally to things like songs and people. Good job Chorus for supporting her like that when she felt emotional. Keep that up forever!
I just recently discovered PS22 Chorus and I can't stop watching the Clips! And I've said it once and I'll say it again that I am telling my daughter she has to marry music teacher...PERIOD.
Carrie needs to record a entire album acoustic or live or even acapella !!! THIS IS AMAZING !!!
this was beautiful on so many levels
agreed. (sniffle)
I so agree with you!!!!!
OUR GRANDAUGHTER JESSALYN JADE WAS VERY SHY & INHIBITED BUT WITH HER MEMBERSHIP IN THE CHOIR & MR. B'S TALENT AS A TEACHER & INTUITIVENESS SHE HAS BECOME MORE SELF ASSURED & OUTGOING. THESE ARE MEMORIES SHE'LL CHERISH FOREVER! THANK YOU MR. B !
Kudos to the music teacher!!! He's given these talented children opportunities they'd probably never have if it wasn't for him!!!!
Wow. These kids are just amazing....and not just with their singing. And Carrie? OMG, what a voice. She truly has a gift from God. Her voice is a God-given talent. She wasn’t formally trained - never had voice lessons. Her voice is all God’s doing. And what a gift it is. WOW.
I love her voice in this video, I don't think I've seen her ever sing like this, untill she's with these kids. It's amazing, and I also love how she tones it down when they sing with her...
This video and especially the segment with the girl telling what this song meant for her and then Mr. B acknowledging that and showing these kids what music can mean to someone ... that should be seen by any administrator that wants to cut on the art programs in their schools. Because this just shows that it is NOT only about having a good time and singing fun tunes. These kids receive life lessons from a passionate teacher, lessons that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
I had never heard of Carrie Underwood before until about a week ago, and I don't listen to that kind of music, but she seems like a genuinely good person.
What a great memory the brave girl will have not just Carrie hugging her but the support of the kids around her and even more the affirmation from her teacher!
My hypothesis is that Mr. B uses the chorus to teach so much more as seen in this video or when Divina left and he told the kids that being good friends is more important than being good singers. So, now I wish I had something like this chorus not only for the famous people being there but much more for all the lessons Mr. B gives without telling the kids they're being taught important things.
What I love is how this teacher takes the so many diverse races and music brings em all together and like sam b said, when the girl talked about her mom dying, everyone so supportive, this is what life should be like
Beautiful song by Ms Underwood... She has such a strong voice and just lovely...
Carrie is so beautiful and talented , flawless even.
Still one of my favorite videos of PS22 ever!
OH MY GOD WHAT A VOICE!!! She sound good when she's not holding a microphone! And I don't know why? DAMN YOU ACMS AND CMAS!!
He is such a phenomenal teacher. I cannot get over it.
I am a big fan of carrie go carrie love this song
It's really awesome when famous singer's do things like this with kids and other people it makes them feel special
Carrie makes it look so easy. Such a gifted singer. Great job from the teacher and the kids.
Carrie tries so effortlessly!!! IT'S NOT FAIR
Karen Touchet
This song always lifts me up when I'm down.
I seriously love Carrie Underwood! When she sang I got goose bumps. And these kids are amazing! Their cover for Good Girl is really good too :)
these kids are good. and carrie is an amazing singer without auto tune
LOL AUTO TUNE
officiallyalexis_ absolutely agree. And Carrie never needs auto tune! That’s the mark of a truly great singer..👌
Talk about taking the lyrics of this song to a whole new level... wow.
Thank god for kind and compassionate music teachers like PS222’s music teacher. They are truly a dime a dozen.
I almost had tears in my eyes after watching this. It's great to see that Carrie's music is have a positive impact in someone's life. This teacher should be applauded for what he is doing. It's obvious what a true inspiration he is to his students.
This is just amazing i cried with this little girl and i feel her pain. This music teacher is truely amazing and his amazing words to these students means so much. Your are amazing Carrie ❤❤
I get goosebumps everytime I hear Carrie's angelic voice.....
I'm also in a choir and I can't believe that, this choir can sing with carrie Underwood
I'm so jealous
What a wonderful thing. Music heals all. Not to Mention PS22 changing childrens lives every year. Look at the synergy and support
Carrie's mom was a music teacher and so are her sisters. Which is why, Carrie knows what it takes to be one. And Carrie said she doesn't want to be one. She doesn't have the patience to be one.
I only heard about these kids this year. Wonderful wonderful. I just hope on one cuts funding for their program.
I love Carrie . Kids are awesome.
This is a powerful song and as sung by the students of PS22 along with Carrie makes it all the more so. What superlatives that haven't already been heaped on Miss Underwood will be as she is an exemplary individual and talent. We are so blessed to have her with us at this time in history. :-)
Beautiful just beautiful
This is by far my most favorite song of hers as the lyrics are so true. Just randomly came across this video now and as a almost 43 year old guy, I'm balling. Beautiful job by all.🥲
When Carrie starts singing, I was like "WOAH!! One of the best singers on planet!"
They are so lucky to be meeting these people. And they are amazing singers
Carrie is one of the few country singers that I could listen to all day. Whenever I listen to her I feel like I am in a Church and this is just even better with the kids. Great video!
THIS IS SO AWESOME! MUSIC IS MY LIFE. I'VE BEEN SINGING SINCE I WAS 2. I JUST TURNED 43 THE 9TH OF DECEMBER. I THINK THIS IS SO AMAZING THAT CARRIE IS TAKING TIME OUT OF HER BUSY LIFE TO LET THESE CHILDREN EXPERIENCE AS WELL AS SEE THE BEAUTY IN MUSIC .
MUCH LOVE
FROM IOWA
XOXO
I feel like this is one of Carrie's best performances. There's an energy behind her voice that I haven't heard before and I love it! :)
How can anyone dislike a child's music preformence? GET A LIFE GUYS. These kids are the real deal.
Carrie's amazing and a sweetheart...glad she got to work with the kids! Great job!
What a nice supportive group. Music is my go to for everything.
this is a great example of why i love Carrie. She's extremley busy now because of blown away, but she allways makes time for really special things like this. She's a great role model for these kids, im so happy they got a chance to meet and sing with her... she's such an amazing woman and you can tell she had a great time with them :)
As Carrie said she heard about these kids and decide to check it out for herself and local media heard about it. As Carrie put it, this music class has gotten famous before Carrie showed up. And since it is her song. They wanted Carrie to join.
Carrie is perfect beyond words.
One of the reasons I love Carrie
They talk bout the kids being mezmerized by carries voice.. it is beautiful and raw.
This is a song where the music, the pitch , the voice absolutely means nothing, it is the words of the song that mean the most. That this was one of the first hits Carrie ever wrote says something about her,.
I have been apart of the same choir for four years and we don't have even half the cohesiveness as this group does. That says a lot about the kids and the teacher. Outstanding job you guys!
Lifes circumstances aren't meant to hurt you, they are meant to strengthen and challenge you. But the most important part of life is to always lead with Love. Hope/Love/Faith I think its great that Carrie goes to hug this little girl. It doesn't matter how famous she is, she still went to hug this little girl to comfort her. If I ever become famous I will always be humble enough to never forget where I came from.
Music really can touch someone and epically when its spiritual music if r in church and that song touches u it makes u go to the alter and ask forgiveness and I thank god that he sent his son
These kids singing this song brought tears to my eyes!
A lot of famous stars seem to have to force smiles. Carrie Underwood seems genuine.
No ipads, no bits of paper. Just passion. Excellent. I am am moved.
You notice how nervous those two standing next to Carrie were. When Carrie calmly let them be heard when she joined them, the two settle down.
Hearing the kids sing this song almost made me cry! Beautiful. I adore Carrie for taking the time out to sing with them.
You are welcome. If you would like to get a little more insight on the life lessons taught in this chorus search PS22 "siren song". It was the last day of rehearsal for the 2011 class.
Carrie loves to perform live but seeing the look on her eyes and how much fun she is having with kids in school and just doing what is fun for her is amazing
Music and movement should never be separated. Shining example of this.
when the little girl broke down that broke my heart because i know where shes coming from and completly understand
This PS22 Chorus is pure magic!
Made me cry love this song this group I love it all 🎼🎧🎤
This showcases Carrie's true vocal abilities, not the processed vocals they do in some of her live performances. Beautiful angelic voice
What are you talking about. Carrie uses the same power in concert. That is what those kids wanted to hear, same as in concert. Only thing, she adjusted for was the size of the room.
that little guy
What an AWESOME choir group. Carries ADORABLE!
they're so into it. im obsessed
might sound weird, but I got to know Carrie thanks to PS22 :) One reason more to say THANKS to all of you, amazing kids form PS22! AND MR B!!!!!!
She is so good with those kids no wonder she is a wonderful mother
Carrie was going to be a teacher! What an amazing person, love her so much!
Oh, to be a fly on the wall that day... I guess watching the video over and over again will have to do!
Why is there not a 10 million views on this?! Seriously!
This is incredible
I got chills
What Carrie has, she can't teach, nobody can actually. Carrie has natural power. As Keith Urban said Carrie is still learning how much power she has at her disposal. As she said about "Ghost Story" she actually taught herself to go higher range, she likes that challenge.
How does he continue to create so much beauty year after year with new kids every year. To have that kind of talent year after year is amazing. The teacher and every kid who has come through this program are so blessed with talent, and in turn, blesses us all.
