      They probably didn't do it that way, but rather built it up piece by piece. E.g. One person records one part with the conductor. Then section leads record themselves to that recording, then everyone else records themselves with an edited-together version with the leads, then someone gets the fun job of editing everyone's recordings together.

    I somehow managed to go my entire life without hearing this song. I just listened to the original recording a little while ago and accidentally stumbled on this video shortly thereafter.
    This is such a complex song. It has a style that seems so incredibly unique in the world of pop music: jarring sequences of high and low tones, intricate changes in volume and tempo, and a highly unusual rhythm and vocal cadence. Because of its complexity, this song works very well as a choral piece, and this performance was absolutely breathtaking.

Really opening to the,, kingdom'' :D! Good work!

    Where are we?
    What the hell is going on?
    The dust has only just begun to form
    Crop circles in the carpet
    Sinking, feeling
    Spin me around again
    And rub my eyes
    This can't be happening
    When busy streets
    A mess with people
    Would stop to hold their heads heavy
    Hide and seek
    Trains and sewing machines
    All those years
    They were here first
    Oily marks appear on walls
    Where pleasure moments hung before
    The takeover
    The sweeping insensitivity of this
    Still life
    Hide and seek
    Trains and sewing machines
    (You won't catch me around here)
    Blood and tears
    They were here first
    Mm, what'd you say?
    Mm, that you only meant well
    Well of course you did
    Mm, what'd you say?
    Mm, that it's all for the best
    Of course it is
    Mm, what'd you say?
    Mm, that it's just what we need
    You decided this
    Mm, what'd you say?
    Mm, what did she say?
    Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
    Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cutouts
    Speak no feeling, no, I don't believe you
    You don't care a bit, you don't care a bit
    Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
    Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cutouts
    Speak no feeling, no, I don't believe you
    You don't care a bit, you don't care a bit
    (You don't care a bit)
    Oh, no, you don't care a bit
    Oh, no, you don't care a bit
    Uh-uh, you don't care a bit
    You don't care a bit
    You don't care a bit
