I am brought to tears every time I watch this. The joy of every single person. I have seen these guys live twice. I’ve watched every you tube video they have over and over. I live in Los Angeles. I have started taking voice lessons. I have an audition on Thursday night to join the Angel City Chorale! Wish me luck!!!
This choir is exactly what our world needs now. Congratulations; I hope you win. No disrespect intended towards the other amazing and talented contestants
This is the best choir I have heard on America's Got Talent. Fantastic vocals!. Amazing coordination. Good job choir director pitch was on point. This will be a choir to remember. I hope this choir wins the show.....
Most outstanding performance. Living in South Africa this hits home and gives me chills. Africa is so unique and it gets into your blood. If you have never travel to Africa, make it number 1 on your things to do. There is no other continent like it. ☺
it also appears that one of the members is blind which makes it more fantastic to watch over and over again in that disabilities do not stop people from living their dreams. may they continue to grow and live long and prosper
Yes, Dave, I thought that was a wonderful glimpse into the amazing diversity of this chorale. I too have watched it over and over again, nothing in such a long time has made me feel so optimistic and joyful. This is what the America I grew up in was all about. Maybe there is still hope for humans if we can all emulate this group.
@@genabrie don't forget that Andrea Bocelli has a law degree, gotten well after he became blind. People are just astonishing. And, the Concierto de Aranjuez was written by a blind man, in Braille.
I did the rainstorm as a kid where we were in an assembly with the whole school. It sounds incredible when a lot of people do it. It also fits really well with Toto's "Africa" I bless the rains down in Africa..
I appreciated the facial joy on the choir members. I was a member of an HBCU choir in the 90s, The Southern University Concert Choir, and much like sitting here retired alone in Thailand, there were days that my heart just absolutely soared at the contemplation of the very special thing that I was doing at the moment.... Be well everyone, live your best days.
This came up on my feed three days ago. I never heard about this choir. When they started to sing, I just started crying. I don’t know why. I listened several times, and the same results. This is emotional, and spiritual for me. This a fantastic choir. Great Job
It really IS fabulous being a part of a large choir. When it's good it's just goosebump raisingly fantastic, and so so joyful. I sang in a 1000 voice choir once and we all squeezed into an old Victorian Hall to practice, it had very high ceilings but absolutely no acoustics except all our voice boxes bouncing off the walls and each other. There was no amplification, there was no Musical accompaniment - just human voices - it was one of the most magical days of my life. WOW we sounded good. Hearing the men's bass & baritone voices rumbling underneath, sweeping across in waves, supporting the Altos and sopranos ..... I'll never forget it. Seriously, go join a Choir rather than taking anti-depressants. The endorphin rush is amazing when you are actually inside the choir rather than in the audience. Mind you the effect on the audience is pretty darn wonderful too. Human beings at their best
Of course the original is always better but there's nothing wrong with choirs singing it they sing songs like these all the time! And nobody wants to see your link! Lol!
That's the whole money making buisness that's how it is! Somebody comes out with a product, somebody else takes it reverse engineers it and makes there own that's how buisness has always been everywhere not just America! And church choirs don't make money and I'm pretty sure there not going to win, and even if they did I'm sure there not going to keep it for themselves that money would go to the church.
A week later & this is the one that's still in my head!! I cannot imagine how incredibly hard it was to put this together! This one was "Golden Buzzer" worthy if there ever was one!
Outstanding! You could really feel the storm, the energy and the beautiful melody. Would like to see more world exposure to the culture of Africa - and groups like this from RSA.
Damn! I cried . Our continent may go through a lot of storms, but we sure have lots of good in here too. Amazing choir! Thank you for reminding me that Africa is still worthy.
Such a beautiful song, and so brilliantly sung. 80s music was so special, in a league of it's own. Reminds me of John Farnham concerts. Where The audiences of his fans, around, 100,000 people,, join in, and even take over. In that era - no auto tune, no great tech gizmos or trickery. You could either sing or you couldn't. Feb '24. UK. E❤
Perpetual Jazzile is no Angel City Chorale! They may have had the idea, but so what… they weren’t the 1st either. ACC is a legend, not some small Accapella group- no competition!
What a brilliant performance by all, and the conductor I take my hat off to her she is such a inspiration and she accepts people of all cultures backgrounds, and sexuality.
In a single word, brilliant. I was in HS when Toto came out with this song and one of my all-time favorites, "I'll be over You". I think of my first love every time I hear it.
I absolutely love these guys. please come to hong Kong. You uplifting, your getting to my soul and your bringing out a a deep emotion when you sing. Well done on all your effort and thank you.
So, for me, this is proof that we are the products of a loving god. Unlike any other species that we know of, we have the ability to create art that can move us to emotion, just for the beauty of it. In this particular case, they took a song that we have all heard, literally a million times if you grew up i the 80's and recreated it in a way that almost every commenter describes as bringing tears to their eyes. Again, for me, this is how I see God.
I already knew them from hearing other performances, but each time I discover individuality and excellence in this fantastic chorale. I would award them even if only for their elegance :)
Hi 🙋Can you help me please .....what's name is song & what's name singer original this song or music ....please help me.... i dont know😞......thanks🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I loved this audition, this was my favorite audition from last night's show, looks like Simon loved it too, he was clapping along, I loved it, it was great, I really do hope they win the show!
Candice Ruth, WOW, you're right. I just watched the perpetuum jazzles Africa and they are great. The guy that started off singing wearing the black jacket with yellow looking scarf sounds a lot like the original singer of Toto.
Paul Greengross, I appreciate that your choir gives credit to PJ. I apologize for being "snarky" :) I will delete my comment best of luck to your choir on AGT really excited about what ACC has in store!
This was amazing. What a brilliant idea, the rain at the beginning. Normally don't care for choirs but this one rocks!!! Also one of my all time favorite songs. Got the chills.
This gave me chills when I watched this on TV truly amazing I hope they win America’s Got Talent. Honestly they should’ve gotten the golden buzzer.
wtf, shin lim should win
:)
Yeah, Shin Lim should win 100%

How did it go?!
Did you get in???
Don't leave us hanging! Did u get in?
I hope you got in.. ❤
Good Zluck !!
It’s like Simon is the only one with enough vocabulary and emotional IQ to say something insightful and brilliant. Thank you Simon. You’re 💎
I love your comment and then there is Hiedi :P
Agreed. Simon can be a total dick at times but ya know... Truth hurts sometimes. He may very well be the only qualified one in the whole lot...
100% agree :) Simon has so much experience and is a very great person.
You can tell the comments from all judges were heavily edited...gotta wonder how much other drivel was edited out if that was what was left in.
emmapeelfan No
if you close your eyes in beginning, you can really imagine the “rain”
уσυ ¢αи
Omg yes
Completely overlooked that. Can’t unhear it now 😂
Omg your right lol.
Nice !!
This choir is exactly what our world needs now. Congratulations; I hope you win. No disrespect intended towards the other amazing and talented contestants
Deserved golden buzzer
Simon started feeling the Holy Spirit 2:52
Hahahaha i was thinking the same
The holy ghost is powerful. An Jesus Christ is savior.
2:53
😂😂
This gave me chills.
Living here, in South Africa, this is such a beautiful song, and is definitely uplifting and magical!
This is the best choir I have heard on America's Got Talent. Fantastic vocals!. Amazing coordination. Good job choir director pitch was on point. This will be a choir to remember. I hope this choir wins the show.....
Yes, they are good but Perpetuum jazzile did it 15 years ago in a capella. their version is stil the best for me.
What about Ndlovu Youth Choir?
Most outstanding performance. Living in South Africa this hits home and gives me chills. Africa is so unique and it gets into your blood. If you have never travel to Africa, make it number 1 on your things to do. There is no other continent like it. ☺

Dave, actually 2 of our members are blind. I look at their Braille music and think wow that’s impressive. They are great singers!

Golden buzzer worthy if you ask me
They got it anyway
Facts
It really IS fabulous being a part of a large choir. When it's good it's just goosebump raisingly fantastic, and so so joyful.
I sang in a 1000 voice choir once and we all squeezed into an old Victorian Hall to practice, it had very high ceilings but absolutely no acoustics except all our voice boxes bouncing off the walls and each other.

I love Toto. I love Africa. I love rain. And i love Angel City Chorale right now!!
Imagine the rain...... in Africa. Beautiful 🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️❤️
Our choir class is doing something similar to this with our spring concert. I'm beyond excited to see people's reactions and pray it goes well!!
And a year later.... Did it go well?
2 years later… Did it go well?
3 years later….. did it go well?
4 years later… Did it go well?
The passion in their faces! This is one of my favourite songs and the rendition is fabulous!
Simon has wanted a choir to win for several years, he often mentions it.
They need to create a choir category.
I almost cried I love that song
Hell yeah!!!
The original is better, honestly just copying someone elses idea is not cool. See my link above.
Of course the original is always better but there's nothing wrong with choirs singing it they sing songs like these all the time! And nobody wants to see your link! Lol!
So it is ok to make money from someone else's idea... No wonder America has so many problems right now.
That's the whole money making buisness that's how it is! Somebody comes out with a product, somebody else takes it reverse engineers it and makes there own that's how buisness has always been everywhere not just America! And church choirs don't make money and I'm pretty sure there not going to win, and even if they did I'm sure there not going to keep it for themselves that money would go to the church.
Wish there could have been more! Shortened version still captures the spirit of the way it was performed by Perpetuum Jazille. Great job!
This gave me the best chills I've ever had In years
Hats off to such a glorious performance
Wow,the rain sound was stunning,we didn’t need to be told,we could already tell by the talent
I sang this with my choir and it was the most fun song we’ve sang!
Pls can I get the lyrics
One of the best auditions I’ve ever seen. Brilliant
The people on the venue have no idea how lucky they are to have witnessed this amazing performance live
Y'all we're beyond good, you were outstanding. Director did a great job... Good luck
Does anyone else get chills from this??
I did!
Absolutely!
A week later & this is the one that's still in my head!! I cannot imagine how incredibly hard it was to put this together! This one was "Golden Buzzer" worthy if there ever was one!
I wouldn't mind them being the first choir to win AGT
Best choir I have ever heard in my life.......
Listening to the beautiful harmonious voices....
I wish they had an album 😀...Just download straight..
I’m watching this immediately after seeing them during the commercial break... what an amazing choir!
Amazing! I hope they go all the way. This choir exudes JOY! They got Simon grooving, that says it all! Fantastic job, I got chills!
Completely unexpected, absolutely incredible!
Watched this 15 times in a row. Dayum I feel blessed
......me the same !!!!!!
I have never seen to Simon like this ever! He really enjoy and feels the music. It is a perfect moment.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written in the history of man ❤️
wow Simon was even clapping his hands kind cool to see that
Outstanding! You could really feel the storm, the energy and the beautiful melody. Would like to see more world exposure to the culture of Africa - and groups like this from RSA.
Completely unexpected, absolutely incredible!
if you close your eyes in beginning, you can really imagine the “rain”
This was awesome Africa is one of the best songs ever, Bobby Kimball would be proud
Stupendous, amazing, incredible, awesome, breath taking, inspiring....cried throughout. The blind singers are inspiring in the choir
Damn! I cried . Our continent may go through a lot of storms, but we sure have lots of good in here too.
Amazing choir! Thank you for reminding me that Africa is still worthy.
This song always makes me cry it’s so beautiful and the way they sang it to it gave me butterflies and goosebumps. So beautiful!!!!!
I couldn't help but get up and sing with you! AMAZING WORK!! Congrats!
Such a beautiful song, and so brilliantly sung. 80s music was so special, in a league of it's own. Reminds me of John Farnham concerts.

Beautiful! Congratulations Angel City Chorale Choir!!!
Perpetuum Jazzile made the original acapella version back in 2009, they know how to make it sound awsome👌...
Yep❤
Perpetual Jazzile is no Angel City Chorale! They may have had the idea, but so what… they weren’t the 1st either. ACC is a legend, not some small Accapella group- no competition!
made me cry the first time i heard them. fantastic
What a brilliant performance by all, and the conductor I take my hat off to her she is such a inspiration and she accepts people of all cultures backgrounds, and sexuality.
Nothing is more satisfying than watching everyday people doing extraordinary things.
Perpetual jazzile Africa brought me here 👏👏 . Wow what a number of people you have here 👏👍
In a single word, brilliant. I was in HS when Toto came out with this song and one of my all-time favorites, "I'll be over You". I think of my first love every time I hear it.
I love everything about this. Simon keeping the beat like a kid learning to dance is a bonus.
The best choir on AGT. I still revisit this video often and it still manages to give me chills.
I didn’t know about this one. I saw there original one on YT 12 years ago? Wow amazing
I absolutely love these guys. please come to hong Kong. You uplifting, your getting to my soul and your bringing out a a deep emotion when you sing. Well done on all your effort and thank you.
I remember watching this on tv 2 years ago and being like, “dang this is good.”
Wow! Love it! One of the best choral groups I ever experienced. Phenomenal performance!!!
Fabulous
Goosebumps awesome fantastical
I love how much they love to sing together, it's so happy!
This is brilliant! Well done, Angel City Chorale Choir!
One of the best songs ever!
I know this song since 1982 and still Amazing!!! And still Deserve the Standing Ovation
This is one of my favorite performances, and it keeps haunting me so beautifully! It's beautifully done! Just love it!
So, for me, this is proof that we are the products of a loving god. Unlike any other species that we know of, we have the ability to create art that can move us to emotion, just for the beauty of it.

THIS IS true MUSIC.
Another great standard of respect for America's got talent show.
Kudos.
I already knew them from hearing other performances, but each time I discover individuality and excellence in this fantastic chorale. I would award them even if only for their elegance :)
I'm overcome with joy when listening and seeing this!
They deserve a golden buzzer
This was stunning.
Love this choir
Watching the beginning is interesting BUT. I didn't understand it, until I LISTENED with my eyes shut, and then I really heard it----truly stunning!-
Wish you could all experience a highveld thunderstorm in Africa, it is magical, calming and amazing!
Yes! You can hear the rain! Really special.
Lovely, can’t watch this choir enough! I get music response every time! Goosebumps
They deserve to be in the finals
Choirs are not really exciting but THIS sounds SO GOOD. It just sounds so powerful ♥️
Best Ive ever heard this song! Good Luck on AGT....go all the way!
This is sooooo cool. Saw this when is was originally aired and fell in love with it.
I remember doing that song 2 years ago in my high school chior, we did the rain and all too. This gave me chills 😄😄
MY DAUGHTER ALSO DID THE SAME EXACT THING A FEW MONTHS AGO
Pryde Contracting of Long Island Inc.
Daughter?
Hi 🙋Can you help me please .....what's name is song & what's name singer original this song or music ....please help me.... i dont know😞......thanks🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@hamid.kashanian9010 Africa by Toto
Timeless song. Beautiful. Well done!
Get cold chills everytime I listen. Out of body experience!
I will never stop to hear this over and over again!
as a judge, i would have asked how many performers were there total... and then given that many yes's !!!
I loved this audition, this was my favorite audition from last night's show, looks like Simon loved it too, he was clapping along, I loved it, it was great, I really do hope they win the show!
Damn am crying watching this beautiful performance ... Good job .... Brilliant Job....
This makes me smile seeing all these beautiful diverse people with beautiful voices come together. 🥰
me too
I agree they did very well, watch " perpetuum jazzles Africa also" it is an amazing rendition of this song done acapella
Candice Ruth, WOW, you're right. I just watched the perpetuum jazzles Africa and they are great. The guy that started off singing wearing the black jacket with yellow looking scarf sounds a lot like the original singer of Toto.
Candice, I'm a member of ACC. We have given PJ full credit on our website. BTW PJ got the rain effects from another choir!
Paul Greengross, I appreciate that your choir gives credit to PJ. I apologize for being "snarky" :) I will delete my comment best of luck to your choir on AGT really excited about what ACC has in store!
ACC is really great. I'm crossing my fingers that you guys win AGT. You all deserve it.
U guys make my day all the time.. simply beautiful ❤️
Whenever I watch this again its like the first time. What a great group of people. Very emotional
I love this and love 80's music! 80's music makes me think back to my High School days at Limestone High School in Limestone, Maine.
Turn your volume up.... it's super magical💕
I get chills whenever i listen to this beautiful rendition.❤❤❤
Gee thanks Tyra for explaining "That's rain" because I never would have realized...........
"thUnDEr"
IKR? Glad they got rid of her
Lmao
* presses pause
* points at TYRA
Thats a fucktard ,,,,=^oo^=,,,,
More racist comments by white America.
I saw this audition and loved it, and I am not a fan of choirs normally ... Simon said he would remember it for a long time... I will as well
This was amazing. What a brilliant idea, the rain at the beginning. Normally don't care for choirs but this one rocks!!! Also one of my all time favorite songs. Got the chills.
My fav choir
