Glad you found our video, guys! I'm one of the guys in the blue jackets. :) I was also co-writer and co-editor of this video, so it's very rewarding to see your genuine reactions! Cheers!
Absolute Masterpiece! Thank you for this!
Hey yeah, I recognise you! That's neat. Great voices, guys. I watch that video over and over. Such beautiful harmonising. Never stop singing. :)
Cody Phillips Yes you are!!!!! I see you when it get to the second chorus singing “nearer my God to thee” ... you have been on my Whatsapp status for the past 2 months .. so Ure known in South Africa
I only just discovered this and it was PHENOMENAL! I would love my stake choir to perform this when we have our next Cantata
First of all love byu choirs second thing who was that soloist is he in the group?
i am 70 ..been going to church since I was born and heard tons of hymns and sang a bunch..and this, by far, is my favorite hymn of my lifetime...
Me too. Sublime and eternal where the talent gets lifted and magnified by the Spirit of a supernatural higher height.
Vocal Point is such a fun group! Just FYI they were on the Sing-Off the same season as Pentatonix. They had some great performances and became fans of Pentatonix too. One of the first Pentatonix concerts I ever saw was a combined concert of Pentatonix, Vocal Point, and Delilah together on the memorial day after the Sing-off. ❤
BYU Vocal Point actually competed on Sing-Off. They’re terrific!
I’m a big fan of all of BYU’s singing groups. This particular men’s group puts out some really good stuff. If you can, react to more of their songs.
I think the coincidence is that I needed to hear this song
We’re glad you liked the production. It was one favorite songs to be a part of. You can do a reaction to any of our songs. We would be delighted to hear your feedback.
I was holding my breath the whole time. Literally breathtaking.
Bless your hearts! You have now been stunned!! BYU is a university in Utah, Brigham Young University. Vocal Point is their college a cappella group. This Vocal Point group came is second to Pentatonix in the Sing Off. That is how Avi knows about them. If you want to just laugh your self silly, watch some of their Sing Off performances!! The are a riot. And Fantastic! I have requested this piece to be reacted to by you two. This is not coincidence. Not by a long shot. I don't believe in 'fate' but wow.

Dartmouth Aires were 2nd place to Pentatonix in The Sing Off. Vocal Point took 5th place.
Shows you how bad my memory is! Sorry about that.
Freada Dillon it was a long time ago, no worries 😊

❤Yassss! Love your reactions guys!!👌btw Im mormon❤❤💕
I was so excited to see this! Awesome job choosing a random video. For those who don't care for Christian or Gospel music, just appreciate the greatness of the performance. @Marco and Ali -- BYU stands for Brigham Young University which is a Mormon college in Utah, USA. Peter Hollens has collaborated with them numerous times. I don't know what the rules are regarding uploading YT videos, but I tend towards believing the reason you don't see any "religious" reaction videos is that they just aren't popular with the masses. As you can see, they are very much appreciated by your viewers -- myself included. Powerful voices, aren't they? Thanks for this -- very much.
I've been listening to this performance nearly non-stop for two days now. I love how your expressions switch from 'okay, good voices but omg the religious song' to basically stunned and speechless after the chorus drops in. It really is amazing :)
Thanks YOU. Perfect to start my Monday morning..
Note to Cody Phillips: JUST AMAZING there are no words! and guys, whether you can REACT to this or not, I am so glad you did because listening to this "Mass" of voices is simply beautiful! Thank you!
I love that you were left speechless and thought it was just stellar. I love the polyphonic arrangement of this song, the meaning of the Latin overlaying the meaning of the English lyrics. The performance is flawless. If I were condemned and awaiting an execution and could make a last request, before meeting my Maker, I would request to listen to this version of this song and I would feel buoyed up, my faith firmly founded and ready to make that journey ever upward with courage in my convictions. This would prep my soul to soar into the beyond joyfully!
I love BYU Vocal Point. I see that pretty much everyone has already pointed out that it's Brigham Young University, and the choir is the Men's Chorus, with the main guys in the forefront being Vocal Point (which includes a men's smaller group--nine, usually, I believe, and a woman's similar smaller group).
They don't ALWAYS do "religious" or "gospel" songs, but they do focus on them, because that's the main point of the university. I'm not Mormon, but I'm also not AGAINST them as some Christians are, and in the comments on their videos, you can sometimes see a lot of "hate" stuff, which makes me very sad (sigh).
At any rate, I thought that you might also like this one...their newest, in which the VP ladies arrive near the end:
"You Raise Me Up"

Very good reaction, and once again, I highly appreciate your sensitivity to and knowledge of what music is for. Thank you very much! :-)
Love how you guys just fall into sombre silence.
Its awesome to see.
Love the reaction...i can listen to them all day... I'm Mormon and proud...im a new subscriber by the way
u are not mormon u are member of the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints
@@gokhana5697 amen
all I can say is THANK YOU.
Simple structure in a wonderfully confident and clear manner.
Simple as the arrangement is it is a fear of communication.
And wonderfully musical in delivery. Simple gorgeous.
BYU Vocal Point is amazing! The Note Worthy girls are amazing as well! Thank you, Kerry
Awesome. Please keep looking at these types of videos.
VP were so gracious to let my son join them in singing this wonderful song when they visited our town. He was so beyond happy!!
Wow that was amazing..great reaction
This men's choir is spectacular, Mormon Men's Choir. Lead singer James Stevens is spectacular. I love the radio announcers' reaction to it.
I love this, and these 2 guys!
EDM MASHUP ```BYU Vocal Point ---- Fantastic!!!
I'm proud too! They're incredible
I love your reaction bahahahahahaha thats how i felt when i first watched it. Its so good🤯
Yall's reaction was priceless! Mine exactly!
I agree!! They are waaaay too good!!! So blessed to hear this old song in a modern way.
Amazing!
I absolutely love VP!!! You should check out their other songs as well! They are astounding!!!! THANK YOU for recognizing them and reacting to them! They're so unique! It stands for Brigham Young university....and "noteworthy" is the female acapella group...they are BEAUTIFUL! Amazing Grace is my favorite of their arrangements.
This song will arrest your soul and you won't be able to put it away. 🙌
You should react to BYU Focal Points "Homeward Bound".... IT IS MY FAVORITE BY THEM AND NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT IT! PLEASE.... IT IS TOO GOOD TO GO UNNOTICED!
Thank you for choosing BYU-vocal point they are wonderful indeed :-)
Pleeease react to more BYU Vocal Point videos!!!
Have you ever heard the same song sung by Simon Khorolskiy? His singing and his epic arrangements are out of this world!
I'm ex-Mormon and a BYU alumnus who generally dislikes Vocal Point, so I had irrational reservations about clicking on this video 😅
That said, this arrangement is stunning and the lead vocalist is extremely talented. Beautiful performance that I literally never would have bothered with if not for you guys, so... Cheers
I loved this rendition of "Nearer My God To Thee." I heard this via my new choir director. That, along with the fact that I like old worship songs and the Titanic are the only possible ways I could know this song.
The dynamics throughout were amazing, how the choir sings especially during the transitions from the verses to the refrains. It's like they slowly creep up to you. First the Baritones and Tenors, then they split and increase in volume, and the Basses come in and really fill up the spaces of the room. This was beautiful!

There are some wonderful men's choirs in the world and I've seen quite a few of them on TH-cam. If there was a Men's Choir Olympics this song would take out the gold medal because of its level of difficulty -your 2nd paragraph description is spot on. All those singers, two languages, and oh so tight. As good as it gets !
Its a Mormon University BYU stands for Brigham Young University, in Provo Utah and it was so great arrangement and shows that our born vocal of human kind can create such a nice sound and carries a feeling better then any music instrument out there . To ans your question why not many people reacting to it It is not you you have lots of follower but it is because it is a religion song and not many people out there do not want to associate with any religious beliefs out there nowadays and also the most reason why is because Its the LDS church also known as the Mormon church (nick Name ) people call the church.
Of course you are permitted to review. Glad you were just sitting there stunned, with your mouths open, as you said. This arrangement and the excellent performance brings us perhaps an earful of what heaven may sound like in the soaring simplicity and then multi-layered complexity buoyed up by significant spiritual meaning (especially when you translate the Latin) to contemplate the literal message lifted upwards, ever upwards to touch the eternal beauty of beyond!
I love the Latin chorus. I memorized it all. Well Done!
So, so powerful!!!!!!
We Mormons love our music ;)
Someone earlier used the right word. Terrific 👌🏿
PERFECT!
If you want a truly amazing experience check out ringmasters quartet singing the bells of Notre Dame.
I'm not Mormon -I'm nothing. I don't believe in God.
This is the best performance I've ever seen and heard from any choir.
I've watched/listened to this at least a hundred times.(I'm 72 years old)
For those who aren't the two of you, and haven't looked it up yet: BYU = Brigham Young University. It's a mormon university. I LOVE listening to their choir, but grow tired of the religious focus..fast. This was bloody great though :)
JohnnyNr5 Heaven forbid a religious institution have a religious focus lol. That’s the most asinine comment I may have ever seen
Black Smoke Drumline What i wrote equates to listening to a politician you strongly disagree with, but you admire their ability to argue their viewpoints. I love listening to what the BYU-people can do with their voices, but don't like most of what they sing.
I'm sorry you weren't able to understand this pretty simple thing, but i hope an explanation helped you along the way.
Hello JohhnyNr5 -- I am glad you expanded on your comment as I was a bit confused why you would be loving the performance by and obviously religious group, but you explanation makes perfect sense to me. You don't prescribe to the doctrine, yet appreciate the beautiful choir. I happen to be a huge fan of Southern Gospel music even though the doctrine about which they sing doesn't exactly fit my beliefs. I also want to thank you for being patient and kind in your reply. That doesn't tend to happen very often. Cheers :*))
Si así suena un coro en la tierra… ¿cómo sonarán los coros celestiales?
BYU men’s chorus: son tremendos! Todo lo que cantan estremece el espíritu. Pero, Nearer, my God, to thee: es especial para mi. Gracias James; gracias BYU M.C. Papá Dios les bendiga hoy y siempre. Un gran abrazo desde Costa Rica.
Please react to the BYU Vocal Point Newsies Medley
Please can you react to the Gazette "Deux" and "Inside beast" live perfomances. They inspired me every day!
