      In college I sang in a choir for a semester. Absolutely didn’t get that feeling. I actually didn’t like it. Also when a went to church a few times it pretty much sounds exactly the same. To be fair this choir in the video is not a professional choir where voices are separated and where voices are grouped and different tones sing different parts, instead this is like when people sing at church. Everyone at once. I didn’t really like singing at church either. I get this really bad feeling of group mentality, and “group mood” if such a term exists. I just don’t really like it. When under 10 or so people sing then I like it.

    There is something spiritual in singing with a large group - one voice, one emotion binds us together.

      This song is amazing and so is the choir although I do not think the song is underrated because I hear it a lot on oldies stations

    • @allanshawa7489
      @allanshawa7489 ปีที่แล้ว

      Maybe it's underrated when compared to songs like Elenore Rigby, Numb, Living on a prayer, Bohemian Rhapsody etc

  • @allanshawa7489
    @allanshawa7489 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    I like it when a person appears to be enjoying what they are doing. The lady in yellow really deserved to be where she was.
    Great cover to my favorite song.

  • @thylatrash7668
    @thylatrash7668 7 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    this always makes me so happy, the energy from the crowd is absolutely incredible.
    also, what i like about ccc in general is that everyone look so nice and "ordinary", like someone you could just meet on the street and have a conversation with.
    i don't really know how to describe it, but it makes me feel really good about myself and humanity in general.

    • @bl1kesmusic

    • @Mr_Ed.
      @Mr_Ed. 10 ปีที่แล้ว +23

      I agree. No tuxedo's and evening dresses etc, just the people looking natural. I love this choir, they're boss.

    • @mads_fairy1
      @mads_fairy1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      They are not a choir they go places and teach them music then sing

    • @forcewielder2000
      @forcewielder2000 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@mads_fairy1 Yes, but still nobody is wearing anything fancy. It always looks more along the lines of them announcing beforehand, "Just show up in whatever you'd wear in a casual night out on the town and be prepared to sing."

    • @joshserrano554
      @joshserrano554 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      It is actually not a choir they guitarist and conductor go to different places and the choir is actually the spectators even cooler concept. No professionals just people who enjoy music for what it is!!

    I know this is an older vid, but it came up in my feed, and I watched while reading thru the comments and it struck me that many of the comments were about how they looked "ordinary" and just like "normal" people. And that's cos they ARE ordinary...... all choirs are full of normal ordinary people. Coming together to sing..... that's extraordinary, both the experience and the sound, but it's an experience everyone can, and should have. Singing is intrinsic to being human... ALL humans sing, and should be encouraged to sing. It's good for us, it's good for those listening... and hopefully, they'll give in to the urge to sing too. Singing is pure music.
