Please never delete this. I watch every year and still tear up.
I would download this soon. Just google "how to download youtube videos"
They would be crazy to take this down. With all the views this gets. Over 54 million as of 2/5/21.
Me too!
I added this to Pinterest so i can always watch it !
Rewatch time
It's 2023 November, the world is in the worst mess since WW2, watching these videos helps me forget for a little while and brings a smile to my face.
Thank you.
Me too Chris. Me too.
Took the words right out of my mouth. Brings a tear every time I watch one of these flash mobs.
@@InFeinerWeiseum, yeah, Germany... as long as you don't lead by example, we should be fine
@@shaftomite007 Hard to know the truth when the biggest, most evil terrorist group in world history writes the history books. Even after nothing but lies, the sheople still follow every word they say. Scary stuff.
@@shaftomite007 Snarky. Guess which nation gave us this glorious music?
Twelve years on and 55 million views I am still making my annual pilgrimage to this video, still the best rendition on You Tube.
The counter has been reset many times.
I love it! I was singing along! Dot
Yup, here I am. It's time again tarkus1940!
Has it only been 12 years:) ??
king of kings and lord of lords…..and He shall reign forever and ever more!!!❤
Still watching in 2023. I think what makes it for me are the people with tears in their eyes and those who quietly joined in on their own. Beautiful.
Jesus said: If I am lifted up, I will draw all men to me.
Today they lifted up Jesus in a food court and I know I was drawn even closer to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords with tears in my eyes. Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
Amen!!
This is NOT an easy piece and yet everyone who was a choir kid still has their part ingrained in their head for all eternity and that's what makes it such a perfect song for a flash mob
Tardisin221B our church had choirs for every ago group( very large church). Everyone got to sing this for the midnight Christmas service. In middle & high school I became one of the first sopranos. The song still gives me chills.
So absolutely true! At age 62 I still know my alto part from high school. This performance was fantastic. I bet the acoustics were great😊
abrs100 so true! I sang in choirs growing up, but I learned this while my mom practiced her soprano part over and over for our church’s Christmas performance. Decades later I still know it and sing it all the time to myself.
My high school chorus sung this song when I was in high school.
I sang baritone in high school concert choir. I LOVE this piece. Perhaps my favorite aspect of the Christmas season. Of course, I sing along whenever I hear it. Emotionally moving.
Quite possibly the best flash mob performance ever recorded.
Totally agree best flash mob performance ever, flawless. Praise the Lord!
Absolutely the best ever!
awesome!PRAISE THE MOST HIGH JESUS CHRIST
@@jackietan8190 AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PRAIS GOD
@lana lake It's no secret... The mall website is on some of the pillars and signs around the venue.
Twelve years later and I still cry. Just beautiful.
so do I ...
@@guypaenen9633 me too. It's New Year's Eve here in Chicago and I wanted to listen to something positive and hopeful for the world in 2023. Happy New Year
Sang it many times from the early 60's until 1980....Thrilling...
Glad it’s not just me. 😊
Yep, me too. ❤
I'm a full fledged atheist and this song goves me chills up my spine amd goosebumps all over! I love watching this video every year at Christmas 🥰
There’s a reason for the chills: it’s built into you. Merry Christmas, my friend.
Mee too!💙💙💙💙💙
I am Roman Catholic and God bless you!!
That is not an insult to you…..it is genuine.
Maybe you should change your thinking and be baptized into Jesus Christ as commanded in Acts 2:37, 38. Give it serious thought.
I miss flash mobs, they truly are a relic of a simpler time. Also I love the guy holding up the Wet Floor sign like it's a trophy.
Yes!
Here's another great one, from about 9 years ago; I think it was in Vienna, but not sure.

There still Flash Mob Smash & Grab vids to enjoy.
Yes the 'Wet Floor' guy is one of my favorites in this magnificent video !
Merry Christmas 🎄 and Happy New Year to all !
May we see world peace in our lifetime ! ✌ ☮ 🌎
He has a marvelous voice, doesn’t he? 🥰
I have watched this dozens of times and it never fails to produce goosebumps and tears. Absolutely magnificent.
Me, too. It is amazing and would have been a great experience to be there!
Still watching in2020. Ten years later. Forever and ever, Amen
It makes my cry with happiness every time I watch it!
Me too Mr. Winters. May our Lord's name be praised forever and ever!
@@anneorange2548 Me too Anne! All glory and honor to our Lord Jesus!
Amen.
Me to:)
He shall reign forever and ever. Hallelujah hallelujah!
Watching this in 2020. Makes me cry every time. KING of Kings and LORD of Lords! Amen and amen.
This is my favorite flash mob video!
Why oh why? I always get goosebumps and tear up when I hear this. As much as i love it........
In my tightly closed senior community during lockdown we can't even enter our churches anymore--but JUST IMAGINE IF WE COULD GATHER OUTSIDE AND SING SOMETHING LIKE THIS!
King of Kings & Lord of Lords-- HALLELUJAH!!
Yeah, that’s what great flashmobs do. Your eyes get flooded.
Me too
This literally never gets old; the marvellous music of Handel and the unbridled joy of these singers, thrills the heart. I don't know how many times I've watched this, but today won't be the last.
I’ve always said that while Handel held the pen, GOD wrote The Messiah.
Eternity will never get old either, in one of 2 places.
Been to the place in Dublin where Handel first performed this !
The best part is where people who are obviously not part of the performance stand up and join in.
Mr. Rabinovitch is talking about the people who stood up but who were not singing, and I saw a number of them. Since I know this piece extremely well, and can remember it almost as well now as I did when I first sang it 49 years ago (OMG, can’t believe it was that long), let me note that the reason that their standing is important is that standing is what is traditionally done by the audience when hearing The Hallelujah Chorus. The first time it was performed for the king of England, he stood (some think he was “moved” but the king himself never said and rarely did kings show emotion publicly), and of course everyone joined him. (This chorus is the final song. In Handel’s “Messiah”). Since then it is done traditionally the same, with all the audience standing and listening quietly.
That's his spirit it's why we weep
@@eddrum -- I had wondered about that. Thanks. I only wish I could have been there... would've been balling my eyes out. I do every time I watch this. But it's a good crying.
What makes you think they weren’t a part of the choir?
It's been a custom all over the world since the first performance of Handel's Messiah in England for all to STAND for the Hallelujah Chorus!
Hallelujah! To the King of Kings and Lord of Lords who reigneth both now and forevermore! JESUS SHALL REIGN! Praise ye the Lord for the Lord is Good!! His mercy endureth forever Glory to God!!!
Through Christ Jesus Amen!
"King of Kings And Lord of Lords" thank you Jesus.
AMEN!!!!
for the sacrifice You made for us that I might be found acceptable before Your Father's throne and that I might be forgiven of sin, and have life everlasting.
@@rosaleeadams1160 Amen!!!
Amen!
@@rosaleeadams1160 Amen! Blessed!
Still the most beautiful thing on youtube after 12 good years. Thank you Jesus
It's almost like seeing a miracle happen. The music just hits you in a place where the only thing you feel is overwhelming hope and joy and a sense that we are indeed going to be all right.
Wow did you describe this on point as a miracle unfolding. Incredible beauty and inspiration.
Here I am 13 years later weeping of happiness, King of Kings, He shall reign forever! Praise the lord, Jesus Christ!
Beautiful 😍
E'en so, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
The sopranos! Voices of angels! Everyone just outstanding!
Some of those older women still have beautiful voices and a great pair of lungs!! Bless them
so true
Singing this a few times a year helps to keep the pipes in good condition!
This makes me cry Every. Single. Time.
And me.
Me too
Every time
Me too, and its been years now. Made all my kids and grandkids watch it. My husband too... I discovered it before I went from Ontario to New York City to sing the whole Messiah at Avery Fisher Hall ( Lincoln Centre) with my choir in 2013!
Here. Here
I constantly return to this and no matter how often I have heard it, I still get chills and am moved. Bravi A tutti!
This performance of "Ode to Joy" starts out a little slower, but steadily builds to chill-worthy levels. Def worth watching!
th-cam.com/video/kbJcQYVtZMo/w-d-xo.html
Amen! Same here!!!! Love it!!😍😍😍😍
Me too!
Me too!!
@@litlredhen when I'm feeling kinda down I vist this video, God is great!
Astonishing!!! Made me cry! God is Lord of Lords and King of Kings! I'm listening 2022
Me too. I don't celebrate Christmas but have the deepest love for Jesus Father and King. I know the misunderstanding and its ok. It is a song of love. This is the best version, hands down.
Yes absolutely amazing what joy all praise to our lord Jesus ,lord of Lords and king of kings,he shall reign for ever and ever
A sign of heaven to be
@@kimquinn7728 Magnificent Chorus.
HALLELUJAH! I'm listening again today, 1/21/23. Giving thanks, praise, and glory to God! HALLELUJAH!
I sang this in 1962. I remember the entire piece, words and music. It moves me to tears every time I hear it. Yes. Now as well.
For me it was 1964. High school Concert Choir. Alto....I still remember every note.
I was in the glee and choir in 1976 & 77 and sang baritone and the practice and rehearsals of this song brings back great moments and memories of high school. Most of all one of the Greatest Songs of our Savior JESUS The CHRIST. HE is returning soon. 2020
Me too. Voices of Omaha. 1993. So much joy!
“I remember every word from when I was in choir and can still sing my part right along” “Makes me cry every time”
YES & YES! One of the most beautiful and powerful pieces written, ever. It moves all who sing it and most who hear it. It makes you want to join hands with the people next to you. It makes you want to raise your arms at the final hallelujah. It makes you want to give glory to God. Thanks *again* for this performance and this blessing of a reminder of so many good things.
Made me cry too, glad I'm not the only one. It looked like one of the boys was almost in tears too.
I know my part, words too. One of the most inspired works ever written and performed ever...!
Your words are true, this beautiful inspiring composition is timeless and still reaches into the inner heart and lifts us beyond our burdens to eternal praises of HIM🥰💕💕💕💕
I sang the sop part in school nearly sixty years ago. Don't have quite the range now but still sing along every time I watch this
@@susaniacuone5758 I bet you can still sing the sop part.
After all these years I just can't get enough of this. Praise the Lord!
So I'm back, 12 years later, 12 years older, but this is as magnificent as the day that it happened in a food court of all places. It was mesmerizing then and still is. Merry Christmas everyone.
Anyone who has ever sung this Chorus remembers what part they sang. I sang bass for this almost 50 years ago, and still remember my part-note for note!
This is one of those choruses that once you sing it, you NEVER forget it!
T
First soprano in high school we sang it in 1978
Exactly! That's something you never for get. I sang first soprano and hit all those high notes, somehow. I sing second soprano now, but I remember that too. How could you possibly forget something as majestic as this song.
Same here. I sang the bass/baritone part 48 years ago. I still remember the entire thing. I sang along with this video. It was so good. First time I sang it, I was a first tenor...then my voice changed :P
I sang tenor when I was in university back in 1968, and I still remember most of the parts I sang.
HE SHALL REIGN FOREVER AND EVER 🙏✝️🙏
AWESOME and AMEN
& here’s to a HEALTHY, PROSPEROUS, & BLESSED 2021
He sure will, and does!!
I'm not a believer but this song was done so well can't help but enjoy it.
Amen and Amen
Amen
Even on a computer, you can feel the anointing on this song. I have been watching this every year and I love seeing the people witnessing this magnificent piece, praising our Lord, the perfect Lamb, who takes away the sin of the world.
It's nice to know that im not the only one who watches this every year... and still tear up 😊
Every.... single.... time
It's that time of year again😊
This is the best version of this song on TH-cam.. I'm in tears.. glory to God
Me too Stephen! All glory, honor and praise to our Lord Jesus forever and ever!
same here !!! Bless you !!!
Amen!
This is what heaven will sound like!
@@bluehammy1 and probably even better!
Watching this August 2019. Tears in my eyes joy in my heart
I am too. In Ireland.
Me too 🙏
We all need this when there is so much division in our USA... Everyone should stop and listen. Love this!
Sh.......you ain't the only one...
October 2019 @2:30 am.....me too
My all time favorite flash mob video. I play it when the world gets away from me. So uplifting. ❤
Absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!!! The shoppers were caught off guard but sat there and enjoyed the song of Praise to King Jesus!!!!!! I'll take that flash mob any day👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 God bless🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This remains my favourite flash mob. I find it astonishing how many people try to capture it on their phones rather than sitting and soaking up a never-to-be-repeated experience that can never be “captured”. One guy about halfway through you can see just appreciating. He is a smart guy.
If it weren't on video then 54 million people wouldn't have seen it. You wouldn't have seen it. This is why we always pour one out for the camera guy's sacrifice.
You should TH-cam amazing grace flash mob from a dutch train station. The beauty of it'll bring tears to your eyes.
“Never to be repeated”?
You do know how silly that sounds, right?
I’ve seen at least 10 other videos of hallelujah flash mobs just this afternoon, almost all as good as this one.
A particularly good one was done at the Wanamaker’s in Philadelphia, “a random act of culture.”
I love the voice on the 2bd guy that got up and sang. What a handsome fella and what a powerful voice on him. This never gets old, ever!
it never gets old, God Bless all and merry Christmas
And to you also Leigh R.

🎄⛄❄☃️🎄💝 Merry Christmas ♥️❄☃️⛄🎄
Every year when Christmas is getting close I watch this wonderful video. It fills my heart with joy and peace.
I'm not a Christian by any stretch. But this piece always fills me with joy and brings me to tears, and this version is spectacular.
I love this too. I love flash mobs generally -- I save my favorites to watch when I need an infusion of joy in my life. :)
***** - God bless you on Christmas and always. Your family is with you always in your heart.
your accolade honors the season and the One born; the Magi were also not of the faith, so to speak; I sense you have the heart of Scrooge after his transformation, in whose heart the Spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come live
Nope. I've never really been scroogey. Sorry.

I love watching people show their love for their Lord and Savior.
God doesn't exist
John Gringo
tor matha mor tui! :P
John,God loves you.
The music has a basis in religion but that has nothing to do with the enjoyment of it. It is just damn good music.
\
Alan Liefting I agree , I love these people. Soo cool.
This was my mamas favorite Christmas video. We probably watched it a thousand times over a span of 8 years. She loved it!. She would allow herself the tiniest prideful smile when she'd turn her friends or anyone visiting on to it. At 92 she felt so cool knowing what You-tube, a Flashmob, to 'cast' a program and the term 'going viral' meant. When I watch this now I can still feel her hand held tightly in mine while we watched just like the mamas and their children watching it the first time. Somehow the beauty of the moment always made her hand find mine. Sometimes our hands found my son's and we would stop all the business of the season and form a chain as we listened. Such a precious gift.
You were cool mama. you were the coolest ever and I miss you with every breath.
Thankyou to those people who made this ten short years ago. I hope you have some idea of the Joy your efforts brought to the world.
A Blessed New Year to Everyone.
Wow you made me cry. She is probably singing this song in heaven with all the angels!
May we all sing together to our Lord one day in Heaven!
92? Wow!
What lovely memories you share here!
I believe there's a special place in Heaven for those wonderful moms.
Thank you for sharing. 🙏🏻🙂
@@saundrajohnson1571 I lost my Mom February of this year, 2020, I know she is in heaven with Jesus listening to this!!!!! What a choir that has to be!!!!! God Bless America!!!!!
@@lynerobinson7809 I'm so sorry for your loss, Lyne. Yes, I'm sure she is. 🙂
Metastasized breast cancer took my mom from me years before her time.
Christmas was our favorite time of the year, both together and individually. My mom introduced me to Handel's Messiah by way of a live performance when I was quite young.
In an effort to not be so depressed at Christmas since her passing, I have made it a tradition to play the entire Messiah first thing every Christmas morning. I don't think it's possible to stay depressed after listening to The Halleluia Chorus.
Not only that, but about 15 years ago, I discovered that I had learned the lyrics to the entire Messiah by heart (I have learned music by ear since the ripe old age of six). Anytime I get the opportunity to perform the Messiah, or merely the finale itself, I jump at the chance. I do, and will always think of my mother when I hear it. I wish you the same blessing. 🙏🏻
This is one of the most joyful pieces of music ever written, thus a treat to sing or hear it.
Reduces me to tears every time I listen to this beautiful performance!
Watching this in December 2020. I shed healing tears.
I'm not a Christian, and yet this never gets old. The first flash mob I saw on TH-cam, and still the best. The look of amazement of the kids faces (especially the one with the Gap shirt) and the smiles of the food court diners are new every year, even though this video is ten years old. And, on top of everything else, these are talent vocalists, even if not specifically professionals.
There was a time when I wasn't a Christian. Now I understand that what we see and feel while watching this video is just a tiny sampling of what we'll experience the day He returns with concourses of angels praising God and singing. As Handel repeated in another number from "The Messiah", "... and all flesh shall see it together."
All We Like Sheep, also by Handel and in the Messiah. Hear that one!
One would need a heart of stone not to be moved by this!
Please don't ever take down this video, it's a wonderful experience even on video! I've often wondered how many singers were involved, and what church or choral group they belong to at the time. The music is difficult to sing, but their harmonies are perfect, and the joy on the faces of the singers, as well as the public enjoying the music, are guaranteed to make you smile when you listen to this flash mob! Uplifting, and inspiring, I return to this version of Handel's masterpiece every Easter and Christmas to share it online with friends. I come to watch it the rest of the year just to be renewed with praise to Jesus, The King of Kings, Lord of Lords!
This was sung by Chorus Niagara, took place in Welland, Ontario, Canada.
Still watching this in 2019
Who’s with me? 🙏🏻
⛄❄☃️🤗🎄
Me!
Me ....... Because He shall reign forever and ever!
Colene Walters Music and other things
It’s Beautiful💕🙏🎁🎉
Don't you love how the onlookers are singing with eyes that light up like a Christmas tree?
The smiling faces of the people listening is inspiring. Beautiful performance. I wish I could have been there.
I have watched this version over and over, best version of this song. I loved watching all the random people participating, brings tears to my eyes. You feel God in the atmosphere.
When I think of angels singing, this is how they sound.
Lovely This is when all of Heaven Rejoices !!! Thank you JESUS
Yes!!!
😍😇❤
I know right. I think angels added their voices
Exactly, me too!
And He shall reign for ever and ever hallelujah! Amen! 2022…
I come back and watch this every Christmas season, never gets old. A stunning performance. I agree with others that this is probably the best flash mob ever. Can't believe it has been 12 years since it was performed.
Christmas and I post it every year on Facebook for Easter as well.
I do same. Everyone sounds so perfect together
I agree. Best flash mob ever. They were stunning❤️
I love when songs of the lord just makes people smile and rejoice without even knowing it. And he shall reign for ever and ever. 4 months to Christmas God love you all and keep you happy Christmas
Brought tears to my eyes. I wanted to sing along with my aging voice, but my mind still remembered my choir part. Love ❤ to all and Merry Christmas
‘And He shall reign forever and e-eh-ver’
tears in October 2019
Awesome
Yay!!!
2019 How can you not be moved........
Some years ago I was in a large choir and our conductor who we had had for over twenty five years died. There was a memorial service held for him and as the family left the church the organist (who was the choir’s organist) started playing the Hallelujah chorus and people all over the church sang their parts from where they were. Totally spontaneously. It was so special.
Every now and then I head back here just so I can raise my hands in joy as our Messiah Himself is worshipped so magnificently by the amazing talent, and to see the joy in the faces of their unsuspecting audience. Reminds me of the angels turning up to the shepherds tending the sheep announcing His arrival with praise and worship.
I have viewed this so many times, it gives me the chills. To think Handel threw the Messiah together in 2 weeks.
That's what happens sometimes when you're divinely inspired. 🙂
I read that certain music is composed in the higher levels (in the astral planes of existence, at a higher dimensional frequency zone of reality. In the higher realms of the astral are the various versions of heaven, for example, although there are lower regions with lower vibes definitely not angelic!). Then these special songs are vibrationally/intuitively "downloaded" through musicians who can assume the correct wavelength to pick up that signal. Not all music, not even a majority, is necessarily composed higher up then sent down, but such music arrives as if fully written to the musician, who just needs to write it out as they hear it in their head. My famous composer friend has explained the difference; she said that kind of song just arrives and flows through the guitar and words onto paper complete, as is, words and tune and harmonies and chords as if already written and just downloaded in a single sitting; while other songs are composed here laboriously, slaving over the lyrics and chord progressions that are best... those can take as long as years before they come to completion. But since she isn't writing multi-part choral music, it could take two weeks to "channel" something like this and get it all just as heard in the head - especially since Handel didn't have any recording equipment. 🙂
I believe it is God inspired - taken by Handel, fresh from being in His Holy, awesome Presence.
My brother had a western civ class in college, and the prof offered an automatic A to anyone who could hand copy
Handel’s Messiah, you got the whole semester to do it. No one ever had, lol. And neither did he.
Someone else picked out the scriptures for him though...ready about it.
Most beautiful rendition of my favorite chorus I've ever heard!!
It thrilled me that Jesus was being proclaimed in such an awe-inspiring way - among many people who do not yet know Him.
Our Jesus is majestic!!
He is worthy to be honored and praised - right out there among people whom He suffered and died for and for whom He cares.
Very moving! Moved me to tears! So beautiful! In a country filled with so much hate and fascism in 2023, this is so healing! 🤗🇩🇪🇨🇭🇺🇲💙💙💙💙💙
The country we grew up in is gone.
But we can bring it back! 🥰❤@@alanbunder9068
We all need to express more love. ❤
And He shall reign forever and ever. Amen
Paddy The Red Dog ...yes Jesus the King of kings
this brought tears when I first saw it and it STILL does now in 12/19
It’s funny you said that. I’m sobbing!
So wonderful...Gave me the chills!
And again today. We played this as pre-worship for our Zoom service
I remember seeing this video when it first came out, and it STILL brings tears to my eyes. What a beautiful performance. :)
When I was in High School (1970), I sang this in choir and sang bass... I LOVED this hymn and I sang along with this flash mob, and cried my eyes out!!!
This was the first flash mob I'd ever seen and I was filled with indescribable emotions. Nine years later, it's the same feeling.
I first saw this in 2013 when I was rehearsing the whole Messiah with my choir to sing at NYC and it still makes me cry. Certainly fills me with hope in these dark times! Its' 6 years later.
Yes!!!
Glory to Lord Jesus Christ for He shall reign forever and ever more
Amen Chris
Amen!
@James'MyIrishDeath Nice! Is the Jesus in the Book of Mormon, the same Jesus in the Bible?
If god was alive maybe he would have protected y'all from a certain deadly pandemic
@@roberte.o.speedwagon2999 You rejected him. He respected your wishes and left you get on with it on your own.
December 2019, this is absolutely beautiful!!!!
Imagine the whole world singing Hallelujah. It would be a much better place to live in. Music is a universal language and if Haendel's music and lyrics move you to tears, there's still hope. This is God speaking: “Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you will live".
Always wished i could be at the right place, right time when a flash mob starts up!
Me too
....or start one 😊
@@starrl1026 That too
I'll bring and pass 🎵🎶💖💝💞around Kleenex 🎵🎶🎵🎶💝💞💕💞💖🎵🎶💗💖💞
First time I've ever watched this. What caught me off guard is that it brought me to tears. Wow.
Every time you see it, it will probably do the same thing...
I get that. I have this weird quirk where I get weepy seeing live performances. There’s something about seeing a group of people performing as one with skill and precision that hits me right in the gut. There’s just something about things coming together in perfect harmony that moves me. I’ve been known to tear up watching brass bands. It’s kind of embarrassing...
@@BeeWhistler That is exactly the case with me! Any time I get the privilege of attending "The Nutcracker", i need to take a box of tissues along because the beauty and magic of it is so overwhelming it moves me to nonstop tears throughout the show, and my sinus problem only makes it worse. Tschaikovsky's works always do that to me as well as Handel and others. A few days ago waiting in line at a supermarket, suddenly the intercom was playing the glorious "Waltz of the Flowers" from that show. I had no tissues with me and had trouble fighting back the tears.
Great to see the Lord given praise like this! Thank u!
No, it's a testament to art, not fucking religion.
Richard Livermore Dear Troll, it is a testament to the fact that even though u troll and use disgusting language, I can say that I hope this message has brought u back to the video and remind u that "he shall reign forever and ever" and he loves u too!
Richard Livermore Real class, ace...perhaps you should listen to the words.
Michael White Yes it is class, and if he had listened to the words, I would not have received a message from him saying it was not religious. Btw, glad u enjoyed it too.
I agree.
possibly the closest approximation of God's glory ever expressed by man.. performed beautifully among his children.
Gotta give HUGE props to the young lady who started it all off. I've been watching this video every year around Christmas time since it came out. It still brings tears to my eyes. The Lord God omnipotent reigns, and HE shall reign forever and ever!!
+lineygoblue Stephanie Tritchew, who was still a student back then but seems to be doing well for herself since. Nice writeup about her and the flash mob at www.torontosun.com/news/canada/2010/11/29/16368791.html
+Kevin Parker Thanks for posting that link, Kevin! Its nice to see she is doing well. She has a beautiful voice, and a ton of courage! :-)
+lineygoblue Yeah totally (if you'll excuse the expression) 'ballsy'.
+Rob Harris I think the word you're searching for is "gutsy".
+David Simpson Thanks David. A much more appropriate word!
This is beautiful!!! Praise the Lord, Jesus Christ who was, who is and who is to come and he shall reign forever Amen! His Kingdom is never ending.
AMEN!
Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior shall reign forever and ever. 🙏MEN! It would be beautiful to see this happen throughout the World next year!
Yes! His Kingdom is everlasting and NWI antichrist socialist communist agenda will end in hell. Amen! 💖🙏🤩
New World Order---
Fabulous! I loved this. These people actually sounded joyful and inspired while singing, which is how the song should sound, like they are celebrating------unlike so many professional choirs who only sound bored. Extremely well done.
Really! and Truly!
You nailed it. They looked so joyous while singing/ farrrr better than professionals in my opinion!!!!
This has been my Christmas treat every December. I Usually wait until Christmas week, turn up the volume as high as loud as it can play and just sit back with my eyes closed and cry tears of JOY!
Lord Jesus, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Forever and Ever! Amen
Right there with you Ken. This is restaurant quality stuff, served up by God (with extra gravy, of course)!
Six years later & this video is still inspiring. Thank you.
"And He shall reign forever and ever."
This brings tears to my eyes. I come back and watch it every Christmas.
Same for me brother.
Merry Christmas 😄
Same
2020 NEEDS this.
As does 2021. Perhaps it will be in a Christmas flash-mob that people will once again enjoy the naked-face vocals of strangers in celebration of the season?
The song still holds true today, He will rein forever and ever. Amen.
I've always found this to be one of the most joyous songs ever written
Nancy Benefiel hallelujah
Nothing bought by the crowd who heard these voices can match its joy.
So many smiles! Merry Christmas and Joy to the World in 2020.
Same for you!

hi I'm from 5 months future and the earth is trying to get rid of us
Wow. Just as I was about to reply "Now more than ever, in a country divided by political hatred" we need that "Joy to the World" ... a political ad comes on following this beautiful video. This election season will come to an end, but "He shall reign forever and ever". Hallelujah!
Mary Willson, it's September 2020, not much joy this year from your god. Where is he?
So touching, meaningful to the human spirit. Thank you. And God Bless.
Gives me chills every time I hear this but even more so when sung by a Flash Mob, beautiful voices! God bless them all and everyone listening! Diane
For me, even 11 years later, this is still the most magnificent flash mob ever executed.
Absolutely!!
It restores my faith in humanity
There's something very righteous about this song.
Indubitably!!! Nothing else even close.
@@Golfzilla1961 Check this one out, it may come close -- also Beethoven :)

@@litlredhen I’ve seen this one many times. You’re right. I might have exaggerated a tad. There are many good ones, but that Hallelujah Chorus is my favorite. A classic!
The little boy at 3:08, fascinated by what he hears, brings tears to his my eyes. Perhaps he had never heard any music like this before.
And it's NOT wasted on the children...
They felt it, just as did the adults! 💖🎶
So nice to see everyone singing together. Merry Christmas.
Tears roll down with awe and joy every single time I listen to this masterpiece
I've watched this many times over several Christmases. It never fails to move me - perhaps it's the look of joy on the faces of both the singers and their captive audience - and of course the music/singing on its own is very stirring. This video clip ranks as one of my all-time faves. Peace and love to all!
Every year since I first saw this wonderful video, I post it at this time of year. It never gets old. Thank you all who participated in making this.
Deeply moving, brings tears of joy to my eyes! So beautiful! Christ the savior is born.
PTL!
So finely executed and recorded. The sound quality is astounding. Let peace reign.
Here in Nov. 2020 because I needed to hear/see/feel this again! 😢😍
I can’t imagine that being done today with where we are at in the world. This was absolutely beautiful! I had goosebumps. Praise our King of Kings, Jesus Christ!
