Oh, the power of singing together!
It's spiritual.
Such passion and joy!
Whenever I am feeling down, I bring myself back to this video. It just brings my heart so much joy. Merry Christmas!
The gorgeous lady in the red dress and boots in the front to the right is always my favorite to watch in these videos . Your smile and joy reaches all the way to New Zealand !!!❤
Was in the crowd and it was awesome. Imagine if we started each work day like this.
Stunning. Love the conducting! He's conducting with his entire body!
Fantastic energy
5 years later and i still come back to this everytime i need a pick me up...always brings a smile to my face and tears to my eyes
Finding one of these I hadn't watched is like finding a gold nugget in my Cheerios. Great stuff, and the regulars killed it.
I love seeing people in the audience with this unexpected grin on their face, like, "Oh wait... I'm having real fun right now?! What is this?!" Thank you C!C!C! for creating this :)
I know right. It's great!😊
Don't know why, but this performance moved me tremendously. Beautiful work, connecting people and sharing love via music!
Every single time I feel out of energy or sad I turn on this and lifes amazing again
You know it's good when you getgoosebumps!
Exciting! Addictive! I want to wake up to this every morning! The authentic energy and the joy of the choir is as amazing as the transformation of an audience into a choir of 1000 people. And what I see in the eyes of the singers is as moving and as extraordinary as what I hear, which is simply unforgettable!
Love it. Let's start it hear.
The one thing in the world everybody can relate to and enjoy doing with each other. Soothing, uplifting, spiritual,......... SING MUSIC, SING SING!!!!!!!
unbelievable crowd participation.. they should do a global tour !!
a verynice and powerfulltrancribition for choir voice,it takes me away...
I was once asked in an essay to describe what 'cohesive community' is in a tangible way.
I couldn't answer that until I had seen this video.
It shows the power of music to motivate, inspire and remove all barriers to community participation. There was no division, no partisanship and no 'isms'.
It was a happy moment, a genuine human moment.
Bravo.
That nails it. Music is connection. So much fun to see how the people get more and more involved and more and more connected.
You are seeing what an amazing conductor can do. Its why you feel as you do.
Very few times am I left without words....Damn fine memory here! Thank you EVERYONE!!!
Human voices united is a power that can change anything, overcome anything, unite everything
Ich bekomme immer wieder eine Gänsehaut wenn ich mir das Video anschaue
Respekt ✊
Everybody is so energetic, infectious, on point and in tune: choir and audience!
This is fantastic. Love the message and structure of one of the best songs ever written. Just get lost in the moment and sing, such a simple message. CCC should go on forever.
Watched this 3 times in a row now. Utterly amazing. Thank you so much.
There are 19 people who really don't see the beauty behind this. Not only is the audience amazing but this video is a perfect example how together we can create amazing things
They should go to the march in Washington this month for the students of Florida memorial.
This is brilliant! What an awesome team works and the sound rocks!
Fabulous and joyous...I´m sure Patti Smith would be proud of this energy and spirit
I so want to be a part of this!!!!! It brings tears to my eyes when I sing along from home!
Me, too! The world needs this so much right now!
me, three!! :)
moi aussi j'en rêve
Me too! I live in the Caribbean and I feel like travelling to Canada when I retire just to do this once in my life...sigh
Well, what are you guys waiting for??? GO DO IT!!!!!! You only live once - NOW is the time! Can't wait to hear you all!!!! :D LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH, SING!!!!!!!!
LOVE these guys. And it doesn't hurt that Daveed Goldman is a Doppelgänger for my favorite NFL quarterback -- Ben Roethlisberger
I love how they got the audience to participate and be part of the choir ❤️
Ez valami hihetetlenül elképesztően csodálatos, fantasztikus, This is something hillarious, more, than beauty... greatings from Hungary

Words can't describe how much I enjoyed this performance by everyone,
I love this group so much. The joy you folks share with the singers and the audience is transmitting far and wide. Thank you for being so wonderful :)

🤔 IMAGINE ☀~
IF this could become
💞A WEEKLY GLOBAL EVENT🌍
at the malls & town squares
around the globe ...
people setting aside
religion & politics
...& coming together ~
uniting & embracing
OUR COMMON HUMANITY
& leaving the things that divide us -
AT HOME.🏡
IMAGE what HEALING that
could bring to humanity
as a WHOLE & OUR World 🌍❗
( & the shop keeper & cafes would
probably see a bump up
in customers too.)
It would be SUCH an effective and powerful way to WORK AROUND
the politicians & some religions
who are trying to divide us
& make us hate one another
& impose their beliefs onto us -
instead of protecting the rights
& dignities of human freedom.🕊💞
Fantastic...I live in envy
here! here! 100% true dat! Thank you xo WOW the conductor is awesome I love how he engages everyone with ease, decisiveness, easy instructions 1,2,3 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽 BOOM...Nice song!
