I Lived - One Republic Arranged by André van der Merwe Recorded on 12 March 2020 in the Endler Hall, Stellenbosch Sound engineer: Gerhard Roux Video: Green Planet Productions
Brilliant suggestion. Love that song; love this choir. No-one could do it justice after S&G (Disturbed comes a very close second) but Stellenbosch? Stellenbosch could elevate that song in ways I don't yet know exist.
@@jillp1840 pentatonix also did a cover. You should check it out. It sounds good as well. I really think Stellenbosch Choir can do a very good job with that song
They're not just awesome, not just world class musicians, not just a sample of the finest the human race has to offer: these wonderful kids have a truckload of fun singing, too.
Lyrics 👇 Hope when you take that jump You don't fear the fall Hope when the water rises You built a wall Hope when the crowd screams out It's screaming your name Hope if everybody runs You choose to stay Hope that you fall in love And it hurts so bad The only way you can know You give it all you have And I hope that you don't suffer But take the pain Hope when the moment comes you'll say I, I did it all I, I did it all I owned every second that this world could give I saw so many places The things that I did Yeah, with every broken bone I swear I lived Hope that you spend your days But they all add up And when that sun goes down Hope you raise your cup Oh, oh I wish that I could witness All your joy And all your pain But until my moment comes, I'll say I, I did it all I, I did it all I owned every second that this world could give I saw so many places The things that I did Yeah, with every broken bone I swear I lived Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh Oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh, whoa-oh-oh (With every broken bone) I swear I lived (With every broken bone) I swear I I, I did it all I, I did it all I owned every second that this world could give I saw so many places The things that I did Yeah with every broken bone I swear I lived Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh I swear I lived Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh Oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh, whoa-oh-oh
One of the best choir in the world. What a great choir leader! Always a pleasure to hear your voices your songs! Greetings from Europe. Thank you so much.
As in all your interpretations, the choir expresses perfection in every note, word and expression. From Italy I follow your performances and I would like to join my voice to yours and I hope that the dream of being able to see and hear you live will come true soon! Congratulations to all of you and the sublime Master! Keep singing for all of us! Erika!😍🤗
Fantástico, thank you, I start m'y Day to listen to you, singing 'Angel'. You sound like angels. Keep on enjoying singing with tour whole heart, music is was we need to bind together. Blessed be you, Esther ( Dutch, living in Portugal).
May we please sing this at our 85th reunion in 2021, André, in place and stead of Toe vind ek jou? Can the reunion be at the same time as the Woordfees?
My friend always shares your songs with me. You sure know how to make me smile. Listening to your songs lifts my Spirit especially whenever it's down. I enjoy the fact that you enjoy delivering beautiful songs with perfect harmony. It's all over you all, from your costumes, order, presentation, dynamics instruments everything. Your songs are healing. All the way from Nigeria, I love you all.
In an interview with the band: "The whole idea, to quote the Late Great Robin Williams from Dead Poets Society , is very much 'carpe diem' "; seize the day
Beautiful arrangement! And the control that the sopranos have throughout is fantastic. It highlights the beauty and balance between all the voices. Such a proud USK alum
Simplesmente perfeito!!! Gostaria de poder assistir a uma apresentação, onde e como poderia obter essa informação? Viajaria do Brasil para Africa do Sul somente para assisti-los
There are tears of pure joy streaming down my face every time I listen to this phantastic choir. Best regards from Germany

I'd like to see this choir do a cover of the sound of silence
Ooooooh...yeah!
Brilliant suggestion. Love that song; love this choir. No-one could do it justice after S&G (Disturbed comes a very close second) but Stellenbosch? Stellenbosch could elevate that song in ways I don't yet know exist.

@@Lily-ed2sc Oh yes; I enjoy listening to Pentatonix too. Thanks for the reminder!
One Republic needs to see this 😍
They're not just awesome, not just world class musicians, not just a sample of the finest the human race has to offer: these wonderful kids have a truckload of fun singing, too.
"I did it all", that's a powerful line. May we live without regret!
They can do nothing wrong!
Exceptional. Vibrant. Exciting. Outstanding.....
I found the Stellenbosch University Choir on youtube and they are one of the best choirs I've ever heard! Please keep it up!!!!
I agree they are amazing
Beautiful! You're all invited to my house for lunch - in California!
HEHEHEHEHHE. After my lunch, ofcourse - In Brasil!
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!
Lyrics 👇
Hope when you take that jump
You don't fear the fall
Hope when the water rises
You built a wall
Hope when the crowd screams out
It's screaming your name
Hope if everybody runs
You choose to stay
Hope that you fall in love
And it hurts so bad
The only way you can know
You give it all you have
And I hope that you don't suffer
But take the pain
Hope when the moment comes you'll say
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived
Hope that you spend your days
But they all add up
And when that sun goes down
Hope you raise your cup
Oh, oh
I wish that I could witness
All your joy
And all your pain
But until my moment comes, I'll say
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh, whoa-oh-oh
(With every broken bone)
I swear I lived
(With every broken bone)
I swear I
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah with every broken bone
I swear I lived
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
I swear I lived
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh, whoa-oh-oh
One of my all time favorite songs from Onerepublic...sung by my favorite choir. Brava
This is a fabulous rendition!! Also what a great band to cover
Beautiful song by one of my favorite choir too :)
Yes
So proud to be South African when I hear this!!!🤩🤩
This choir made Covid 19 tolerable for me. Great choral music. Much joy for me
Found this choir a few years ago. In love with them since.
This song has very special meaning to me. My high school choir sang this at our high school graduation. Class of 2015.
The black singers' voices give a wonderful depth and timbre to the choir's overall sound
So uplifting,but more than this it's heartening to see young ppl come together in unison & sing their hearts out . . . . and how.
This choir can just bring tears to my eyes😢and put a smile of joy to my face i love this 💥
All the love from Namibia🇳🇦
I hope Ryan Tedder sees this
A true picture of what South Africa's heritage should look like. A diverse unit. That is our South African heritage: to be a diverse unit.
Wunderschön ❤ einfach grossrtig ❤ Grüsse aus der Schweiz
