It pretty much is the full soundtrack form the original Aladdin with Robin Williams, two are just shortened a bit to make it singable as one song, rather than taking a break between each song.
5:33 to the end is amazing Furthermore, 5:33 to 5:47 is just so beautiful, just a pure golden sound. Eric's voice is just so soft and smooth and effortless sounding and I really like it.

7:07 more is said with that look between Tim and the others than anyone knows unless they've been in a quartet. That's Tim saying "I'm living on a prayer but I got it, I just can't believe I have to do it... UP A HALF STEP!" (they've sharped a half up from the album version by this point). But he nails that Bb anyway because that's who he is 😮 This may be one of their best live performances of this song.
Absolutely brilliant. Harmonies are wonderful, perfect tempo, and even the half-dialog parts are spot on. I'd throw a whole crate of thumbs at you if I could, but I can't, so here's one.
Mephostopheles So, I know this is really late, but check out Ringmasters Hunchback of Notre Dame medley. The tenor of Ringmaster has beaten Tim in a post competition. Well, technically...Tim conceded without even attempting.
21 seconds is an amazing post... for anyone but our Tim. If you get a chance, listen to "Five foot two" on his first solo CD. Now THAT is a stupid long post! Love these guys!
Its crazy to think they went sharp in the end, so Tim belted a C# and held a Bb for that long... Now in their new album, Vocal Spectrum IV, he belts D's and even an Eb. Who is this guy and where can I get his vocal chords
Mathew James he belts an Eb in "Sweet Little Jesus Boy" and in songs like "Welcome Christmas" you can hear him belting a lot of stuff in the background!
21 seconds of what I think is a high Bb... I just discovered you guys and I think you're absolutely AMAZING! Props! You're living my dream right now ahahha :)
Not the point I'm making, I know a lot of people can sing that Ab full-voice, it's his timbre that makes it sound so good. Eric usually uses a kind of mix in that range (at least, he sounds like he does) but there he's chest-voicing it and it sounds awesome.
I wrote this out from listening but I don't think there are any mistakes. Towards the end I couldn't make out a couple of things though, which are clearly marked. Thumbs up if this was useful! As-Salaam and good day to you! Do you want to hear the story of Aladdin and his lamp? A desert tale of a young boy, a princess he loves, and a genie who makes all his wishes come true. Oh I come from a land, from a faraway place Where the caravan camels roam Where it's flat and immense And the heat is intense It's barbaric! But hey, it's home. When the wind's from the east And the sun's from the west And the sand in the glass is right Come on down, stop on by Hop a carpet and fly To another Arabian night Arabian nights Like Arabian days More often than not are hotter than hot In a lot of good ways Arabian nights 'Neath Arabian moons (so bright the desert moons) A fool off his guard could fall and fall hard Out there on the dunes So, gotta keep, One jump ahead of the breadline One swing ahead of the sword I steal only what I can't afford (That's Everything!) One jump ahead of the lawmen That's all, and that's no joke These guys don't appreciate I'm broke (That boy is such a lousy) Riffraff! Street rat! Scoundrel! Take that! Just a little snack, guys Rip him open, take it back, guys Gotta steal to eat, gotta eat to live Otherwise we'd get along, wow wow wow! Wa-ha-ha... Well Ali Baba had them forty thieves Scheherezad-ie had a thousand tales But master you in luck 'cause up your sleeves You got a brand of magic never fails You got some power in your corner now Some heavy ammunition in your camp You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how Well all you gotta do is rub that lamp And I'll say Mister Aladdin, sir What will your pleasure be? Let me take your order, Jot it down You ain't never had a friend like me (oh yeah) Mister Aladdin, sir, have a wish or two or three I'm on the job, you big nabob You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend You ain't never had a friend like me (oh my wa-ha-ha, no not a friend like me) Now, Make way for Prince Ali Say hey, here he comes! Ring bells! Bang the drums! Are you gonna love this guy! Prince Ali! Fabulous he! Ali Ababwa Genuflect, show some respect Down on one knee! Now, try your best to stay calm Brush up your sunday salaam Then come and meet his spectacular coterie Prince Ali! Amorous he! Ali Ababwa Heard your princess was a sight lovely to see And that, good people, is why he got dolled up and dropped by With sixty elephants, llamas galore With his bears and lions A brass band and more With his forty fakirs, his cooks, his bakers His birds that warble on key Make way for Prince Ali! - We're half way done - Woooooow, waaaaa, oooo. I can show you the world Shining, shimmering splendid Tell me, princess, now when did You last let your heart decide? Oh, I can open your eyes Take you wonder by wonder Over sideways and under On a magic carpet ride A whole new world A new fantastic point of view No one to tell us no Or where to go Or say we're only dreaming A whole new world A dazzling place I never knew But when I'm way up here It's crystal clear That now I'm in a whole new world with you A whole new world (A whole new world) That's where we'll be (That's where we'll be) A thrilling chase A wondrous place For you and me (I can show you those) unbelievable sights! Arabian nights, Like Arabian days Much more often than not are hotter than hot In a lot of good ways (?such days and nights?) Arabian nights, 'Neath Arabian moons (the shining desert moon) A fool off his guard could fall and fall hard Out there on the dunes (such days) So ?many? many ways Unspeakable sounds (unspeakable sounds) Arabian nights and sights Stars so bright (under those) Wonderous Arabian Nights!
pman5595 Oh definitely! Tim is a BEAST! I have heard him do 30 second posts live, and he is more than capable of holding a note, haha. I was just saying that in THIS recording, it was 22 seconds. Still a long post for most people, though!
You probably aren't a bass. More likely a high baritone. Although if you actually have a bass range in addition to being able to reach an Ab, then I don't really know what voice part you'd qualify as. That's about 3 octaves, which is a pretty rare range.
They are cutting parts of the song up to make it fit, same with all the songs. That's what a Medley is. If you are referring to when he sang "It's barbaric! but hey, it's home!" 'barbaric' was in the original song, but Disney changed the word due to complaints.
Yes, I know what the original sounded like and that they changed it. These guys were doing nothing to the version as we know it today, therefore, they didn't change it.
In barbershop music, a tag is the last part of a song... it has the most chord ringing and brings the whole song together. A post is when one person holds a note for a long time ("posting a note") while the other three sing the rest of the tag.
I have personally heard quartets from the Suntones live in 1976 to this quartet. I have never heard anything better than the Vocal Spectrum. Amen?
Am I the only one who wishes this weren't a medley, and rather the full Aladdin soundtrack performed in the barbershop style?
definitely not. maybe some others as well, like Mulan.
Kevin Pommier with dialogue included of course

okay that last high note was nuts in most most amazing way ever!
I think my head would explode trying to remember all those notes and words LOL.
I've watched it so many times I've memorized it, including the harmonies 😂😂😂
+Cabri Noble YES!! SAME!!
Never limit yourslef!

death sentence
nah I just chug the whole bottle when I hear that fucking tag because I can't make it through the rest of the day otherwise
Do we waterfall during the tag?
Heard from France, and France LOVES !!!!!! You are AWESOME GUYS !!!!!!!!!
I think, cos Tim's posting that amazing Bb at this point, everyone's overlooked Dalbey's kick-ass full voice Ab at 7:31!
the baritone's voice is just so awesome
7:07 more is said with that look between Tim and the others than anyone knows unless they've been in a quartet. That's Tim saying "I'm living on a prayer but I got it, I just can't believe I have to do it... UP A HALF STEP!" (they've sharped a half up from the album version by this point).

Absolutely brilliant. Harmonies are wonderful, perfect tempo, and even the half-dialog parts are spot on. I'd throw a whole crate of thumbs at you if I could, but I can't, so here's one.
"I can count on one hand"
Good job soldier, not many people have the talent to perform such a miraculous feat.
He can count on one hand how many times they've performed this medley
Oh my god....The overtone that kicks in at 7:42 is just....wow, I can't even.
It is absolutely as good as it gets.
I hope these guys continue together forever. They produce more beautiful synchronized chords than any other group.
It's quite amazing how 4 guys voices can fill a room so much
I just can't get enough listening done - the vibration, harmonics, chord combo's, tempo change-ups ~ major musicology!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is perfection! They nailed it!!! ❤️😍
"We're halfway done!"
Good God! You all make it look easy!
I LOVE THIS MEDLEY! they perform it so well here!
How did that man stay conscious after that long note? What a champ. I can't hold a note for even four seconds without running out of breath.
Mephostopheles So, I know this is really late, but check out Ringmasters Hunchback of Notre Dame medley. The tenor of Ringmaster has beaten Tim in a post competition. Well, technically...Tim conceded without even attempting.
21 seconds is an amazing post... for anyone but our Tim. If you get a chance, listen to "Five foot two" on his first solo CD. Now THAT is a stupid long post! Love these guys!
What a tour de force! It'd take me months just to memorize the words!
LOVE that EPIC POST!!
I love VS BUT can we please talk about that lady’s comments
“I know how that’s feels”
😭🫡😂🤣
Uh hell yeah. Some very complex stuff guys. perfectly done. Bravo!
The most epic that's what she said of all time
"I can count on one hand... We don't do it very often for two reasons, it's really long and it's really hard."
Please.
Awesome! Really awesome!
So nostalgic! Love this!
This is outstanding.
Absolutely wonderful.
Unbelievable...you guys are amazing!
Finally a version with good sound!!
I love this!
It really is an awesome performance! I can't wait for their 4th CD. I hope Tim does, "O Holy Night" !
It's Amazing!!!!
reminiscing my Highschool days... 😂😂😂... Loved to hear acapella 😍
So amazing!
That last note, his breathing skills, wooooaa
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its crazy to think they went sharp in the end, so Tim belted a C# and held a Bb for that long... Now in their new album, Vocal Spectrum IV, he belts D's and even an Eb. Who is this guy and where can I get his vocal chords
Jeremy Ingraham what songs?
Mathew James he belts an Eb in "Sweet Little Jesus Boy" and in songs like "Welcome Christmas" you can hear him belting a lot of stuff in the background!
Heard his Eb5 in "Sweet Little Jesus Boy." So beautiful, thank you.
And?? Still: it sounds horrible... barbershopturbated!
Real talk. You guys dominated that.
7:20 do i hear a glass broken by Tim´s voice?
You know, that might be what actually happened lol
I think so, lol.
This Rocks!
Incredible!
Spectacular
LOL that woman who spoke up. Was that a fan they, uh, "serenaded" before?
Dat last note from the 1st tenor though! Damnnn!
21 seconds of what I think is a high Bb... I just discovered you guys and I think you're absolutely AMAZING! Props! You're living my dream right now ahahha :)
highest Tims post.... Bb... sick!!!
lol at "we're half way done" haha
*jaw drops*
I hope my group can get this good!
awesome!!! :)
Not the point I'm making, I know a lot of people can sing that Ab full-voice, it's his timbre that makes it sound so good. Eric usually uses a kind of mix in that range (at least, he sounds like he does) but there he's chest-voicing it and it sounds awesome.
Only Tim waurick will be able to do that post, from now until the end of time
0:20: "... thanks, Mom."
--Dave, also losing control
かっこいい😍
there really good
We're half-way done xD
They should go on Americas got talent, I'd love to see that 😍
Shoulda gone with the original lyric. "Where they cut off your ear if they don't like your face. It's barbaric! But hey, it's home"
7:20 Holy fuck Tim chested a C#
This Is Danish Cubing He's an insane singer in general.
I wrote this out from listening but I don't think there are any mistakes. Towards the end I couldn't make out a couple of things though, which are clearly marked. Thumbs up if this was useful!
As-Salaam and good day to you! Do you want to hear the story of Aladdin and his lamp? A desert tale of a young boy, a princess he loves, and a genie who makes all his wishes come true.
Oh I come from a land, from a faraway place
Where the caravan camels roam
Where it's flat and immense
And the heat is intense
It's barbaric! But hey, it's home.
When the wind's from the east
And the sun's from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down, stop on by
Hop a carpet and fly
To another Arabian night
Arabian nights
Like Arabian days
More often than not are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways
Arabian nights
'Neath Arabian moons (so bright the desert moons)
A fool off his guard could fall and fall hard
Out there on the dunes
So, gotta keep,
One jump ahead of the breadline
One swing ahead of the sword
I steal only what I can't afford (That's Everything!)
One jump ahead of the lawmen
That's all, and that's no joke
These guys don't appreciate I'm broke (That boy is such a lousy)
Riffraff! Street rat! Scoundrel! Take that!
Just a little snack, guys
Rip him open, take it back, guys
Gotta steal to eat, gotta eat to live
Otherwise we'd get along, wow wow wow! Wa-ha-ha...
Well Ali Baba had them forty thieves
Scheherezad-ie had a thousand tales
But master you in luck 'cause up your sleeves
You got a brand of magic never fails
You got some power in your corner now
Some heavy ammunition in your camp
You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how
Well all you gotta do is rub that lamp
And I'll say Mister Aladdin, sir
What will your pleasure be?
Let me take your order, Jot it down
You ain't never had a friend like me (oh yeah)
Mister Aladdin, sir, have a wish or two or three
I'm on the job, you big nabob
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend like me
(oh my wa-ha-ha, no not a friend like me)
Now, Make way for Prince Ali
Say hey, here he comes!
Ring bells! Bang the drums!
Are you gonna love this guy!
Prince Ali! Fabulous he!
Ali Ababwa
Genuflect, show some respect
Down on one knee!
Now, try your best to stay calm
Brush up your sunday salaam
Then come and meet his spectacular coterie
Prince Ali!
Amorous he! Ali Ababwa
Heard your princess was a sight lovely to see
And that, good people, is why he got dolled up and dropped by
With sixty elephants, llamas galore
With his bears and lions
A brass band and more
With his forty fakirs, his cooks, his bakers
His birds that warble on key
Make way for Prince Ali!
- We're half way done -
Woooooow, waaaaa, oooo.
I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?
Oh, I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming
A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
A whole new world (A whole new world)
That's where we'll be (That's where we'll be)
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me (I can show you those) unbelievable sights!
Arabian nights, Like Arabian days
Much more often than not are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways (?such days and nights?)
Arabian nights, 'Neath Arabian moons (the shining desert moon)
A fool off his guard could fall and fall hard
Out there on the dunes (such days)
So ?many? many ways
Unspeakable sounds (unspeakable sounds)
Arabian nights and sights
Stars so bright (under those)
Wonderous Arabian Nights!
Forever i say..... Thank you sir
every tenor can sing A, but B that long is amazing
Браво!!!!!! Моё почтение особенно 7:24!!!!!!!!!!!1 ууууууухххх
Eric’s laugh at 3:45 🤣
7 people touched something besides the lamp in the Cave of Wonders.
Yeah, nice one :)
Nice voice
Cool!! :D
250 views. Just by me.
Bow Chicka Wow Wow
20 second held note.... wow
WOW
i love tokyo
Dat 20 second note though .-.
***** No, actually 22 seconds. Tim takes a breath right at 7:22 and the post goes from 7:23 to 7:45.
Definitely not 31s.
Mario Hernandez-Gerety He does go 30 seconds on the studio recording of this song, though!
pman5595 Oh definitely! Tim is a BEAST! I have heard him do 30 second posts live, and he is more than capable of holding a note, haha. I was just saying that in THIS recording, it was 22 seconds. Still a long post for most people, though!
Damn that 'bom' chord at 4:04
Wow. I'm going to bed now.
The end sounds so much like go the distance.
That is a STUPID hard chart. Ain't nobody but VS could even come close to pulling it off. David Wright is a freaky freak.
I'd like to see another quartet pull that one off
I want the sheet music of this just so I can frame it and put it on the wall!
miming obviosly but still cool
Wow
I.. cannot believe that. haha omg
@CDugan7 he was looking at Chris because he knew they were really sharp. But they magically pulled it off
Toppie
You probably aren't a bass. More likely a high baritone. Although if you actually have a bass range in addition to being able to reach an Ab, then I don't really know what voice part you'd qualify as. That's about 3 octaves, which is a pretty rare range.
Love the chord at 6:25. So nice.
Just came here to hear 6:20
Lol "we're halfway done"
Why did they change the words in Arabian nights?
They are cutting parts of the song up to make it fit, same with all the songs. That's what a Medley is. If you are referring to when he sang "It's barbaric! but hey, it's home!" 'barbaric' was in the original song, but Disney changed the word due to complaints.
I know that they cut things, but Yes its whats before barbaric. They still say it, but they change it.
Are you high? Because I didn't hear any changes.
tandnmom100 well do you know the original? Its different. How you say there is no change
Yes, I know what the original sounded like and that they changed it. These guys were doing nothing to the version as we know it today, therefore, they didn't change it.
Does his shirt say I love KY? Eek
This song is long and hard, shining shimmering and splendid - and they sing it for kids. Shame!
Where can I buy this arrangement?
shop.barbershop.org/sheet-music/downloadable/aladdin-medley/
dat not~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~e
can someone explain what post and tag mean?
In barbershop music, a tag is the last part of a song... it has the most chord ringing and brings the whole song together. A post is when one person holds a note for a long time ("posting a note") while the other three sing the rest of the tag.
The lead singer for Arabian Nights looks like a slightly pudgier version of Jimmy Car XD
If VS wants to give me "really long and really hard," and I have "to take it sideways, over, and under" I am fine with that!!
