@@aliaebbert8400 Oh my gosh, I found out yesterday and... argh! Who was the top 5? Signature, probably Thowback somewhere in there... Lemon Squeezy didn't compete this year... who got medals?
Can anyone appreciate the amount of key changes they did during the song? A normal choir would require a ton of practice to even change one key throughout the song. Given that they're just four people, one cannot underestimate their amazing musical talents, especially on this song.
+ deebleu carpeso *Does* a normal choir require a ton of practice to even change one key during a song? This hasn't been my experience at all. My high school choir ( and jazz choir) did performances that included multiple key changes. In fact, under the same music director we did key-changes in middle school chorus performances. As long as everybody is listening carefully and can sing in-tune, a key-change shouldn't present any difficulty!
I think what I enjoy most, even more than their flexibility between parts, is the fact that these guys are having a lot of fun doing this. I imagine they had to work on this routine for many hours before getting it just right, .. but then in this performance it comes off as being effortless. Great job.
shush, you two; all of them did a lot better than many actual basses I've known. --Dave, I KNOW why I can't sing bass: I have the notes but not the power. Luckily bari fits me perfectly.
I mean, Kohl has sung bass in other quartets before IC, and he’s done multitracks, so I’m sure he actually holds his weight on bass when not in a facetious environment.
@@glowco.717 I'm 3 years late, but Kohl can sing some solid bass! Having sang with him at contest and heard his learning tracks, I can def say he can sing bass. He jokes for the song.
Exactly! Funny thing, too, I had just completed listening to a THX compilation a little while before hearing this... I wonder if that's how I found this.
The slide at the end sorta reminds me of the THX intros in the old cassettes 💀💀 All jokes aside, this arrangement is something I will never forget. So glad that Barbershop exists for these talented ppl to share their voices with the world 😊😊
The moment I read the title I knew this was going to be a take on “You Gotta Have Heart” from Damn Yankees and I am not at all disappointed with their rendition. Just Brilliant!
I've loved barbershop quartet ever since I first heard "The Music Man" LP album back in the 60's. It just seems like the guys have so much fun singing! Remember the "Buffalo Bills?"
@@abra-ca-tyler5875 you saved my life. I have to pull some together real quick with my quartet and we are gonna do this! Really needed the sheet music man!
I actually asked him if I could buy the arrangement a few years ago and he said he didn't have the napkin anymore and that was literally the only place it was written lol
I just think everything about that was amazing... and the BLEND! Holy Smokes :D I'm having my chorus switch parts this week...this will be a great capper to the lesson.
They are brilliant can’t fault them at all the blend the richness of the lead the solid bass not this song it was fun but they’re general competition songs that got them the gold When I ist heard them I think they finished second or third I thought they are gold in the making
@@paddy_black I think Dad Wagon disbanded, but yeah, that would be pretty dope! And I was looking at IC's bios, and Theo and Kyle _are_ dads, so it would fit (also David is engaged, yay, good for him!).
Thanks. I'll never unsee Linus in this now. xD I wonder what an LTT Barbershop Quartet would sound like... I mean, I am sure Anthony has got to have an amazing singing voice, judging from his normal voice.
Hahaha in high school choir I begged day and night to be switched to baratone or bass. Man am I glad my teacher kept me in tenor 1 really kept me on my toes.
AMAZING TALENT. These kinds of groups deserve 1000% more credit and HUGE audiences. Some people are too hooked on "popular" garbage music to find good wholesome REAL talent like these guys.
Although I get what you're wanting to say, putting down music you don't like as garbage is simply not something you should do. Music is topical, not factual. Its not right or wrong. Just because someone doesn't like what you like doesn't mean what they like is "garbage"
And that's what makes it so good! I also love how about 40% is just improv, and playing off of each other (and sometimes against!) to get some good laughs!
Welcome to Instant Classic Studios. My name is David Zimmerman. For most of the tracks, I've been singing tenor. I want to sing bass, And I finally have an opportunity to do that. Kyle arranged this song for us on a napkin, in a cafe. So, Here's something for you - something that'll cleanse your palate, Something that'll be a little dessert for your dinner, Something that'll be a little whipped cream, maybe, For your Starbucks coffee in the morning. You gotta change parts! And it goes a little something like this: We gotta change parts Only one is just a start When the bass is singing lead for a change He sings with new range and heart We'll learn every note To every song ever wrote If your part seems rather boring and bland Singing bass can be grand, have hope (have hope) When you're stuck with walking bass lines Don't just sit around and moan You can have yourself a good time Singing with the baritone (with the baritone) And we groan... You gotta change parts! Singing every single part (every single part) Sure it's great to sing a sweet melody But listen to me, it's just the start Harmonize on every part So what's the heck's the use of singing The same old thing We gotta try it every way to make it ring (ring, ring, ring...) And we're happy when We change parts We change parts We've gotta change parts We change parts We've gotta change parts We like to change parts Change parts!
It's Theo taking his part, the descending half-steps he does would be something a baritone usually sings, I could be mistaken ofc, but that's what it looks like to me.
His name is Kohl Kitzmiller. Left to right: Kohl Kitzmiller Kyle Kitzmiller (older brother of Kohl) Theo Hicks David Zimmerman Yeah, baritones always get way into dance moves and choreography. They also steal the show whenever possible. It's awesome.

It takes all day as well.

Anyone else realize at 4:13 that’s the bass hitting that really high note for that whole segment? Lmao
Not until I read this and went back to watch it.
Wow that was incredible
spoiler alert.
Instant classic is actually just 4 tenors.
Homestuck number.
The the THX effect
3:21 That is the most classy high five I've seen in my life.

Key changes are really easy when you know your part

I often get the impression that Theo is just an incredibly overworked dad, dealing with his three really crappy sons. I believe in you Theo.
Thanks for believing in me .
High school choir directors, amirite?
The interval between the lead and the bass at 2:55 is crazy in tune. It’s so perfect
true musicians, they can sing any part. Sheer talent
Stephanie Taylor except the tenor can’t sing bass lol

I love the parts where they pitch slide to the resolves chord. So satisfying
Kohl's dancing is hilarious. It's ALWAYS the baris who get way too much into the choreography. I love it.
It's the only way a Bari is going to get noticed. No one can pick our part out, so we gotta get visual recognition.
I LOVE this. Their facial expressions and reactions to various things that happen are hilarious and they absolutely nail the tag!
My dad was a tenor and he would’ve laughed his butt off at this!! Gave me chills! ❤
Definitely read this as "gotta change pants" so when they said parts I was like ah this makes sense and it was amazing!
Oh my god!!!! The finale was unexpected !!!!! All those weird up and downs in order to finish in a perfect strong chord ... amazing !!!!!!!
One of Instant Classic’s best arrangements!!!
Absolutely terrific!😆 Those who don't sing probably don't how difficult that is and how good that was !

They were so good throughout and still saved the best for last! Great great group!
I grew up with barbershop, these fellas epitomize the adorable, lovable, dorkiness that is the barbershop quartet. 💗
And this is why I love barbershop!
Everytime I listen to this song from Instant Classic it puts a smile on my face!!! 😀😀😀🎶🎶🎶🎶🎤🎤🎤🎤
Absolutely fabulous tie in at the end. BZ Gents.
Theo, you reminded me so much of your dad in this video! I’m so glad TH-cam randomly brought this up for me.
"You Gotta Change Parts, arr. Kyle Kitzmiller (on a napkin)"
I guess it's true then...
Kyle does some great arrangements. Gotta admit that!
I actually asked him if I could buy the arrangement a few years ago and he said he didn't have the napkin anymore and that was literally the only place it was written lol
Darn, would love to try it with my quartet

They are brilliant can’t fault them at all the blend the richness of the lead the solid bass not this song it was fun but they’re general competition songs that got them the gold
When I ist heard them I think they finished second or third I thought they are gold in the making
They finished in 8th, then won next year. They have only gold medals (and collegiate silvers) from Internationals.
That's got to be the most complex and difficult tag my ears have ever heard! Jaw still on floor. All I can say is, Yoinks!
2:08!!! Oof! That harmony! DAMN!

So much charisma in this video, amazing haha

they hit us with that THX theme at the end

Holy shit this almost made me cry on that last chord because it was so good
Love it!
Good lord! What talent! What T-A-L-E-N-T!
I like how the one that’s singing the changed part steps up to the mike to sing it.
this taught me so much about barbershop
They have such great pitch...and they enjoy it so much...seems to make sense to me ...a baritone who became a tenor. Very very clever
This was quite inspiring for some reason.
That tag was dope
"That 7 was so dope!"
"Yo, dawg!"
"It's like barbershizzle! What do you thing Rog?"
"What's happenin'?!"
LifeOnTheLedgerLines “The emotional value!”....”7’s???”
David Zimmerman "Tenor" is my choir teacher
OMG! Incredible!
This is wicked!
F M L - thats good shit *tears of joy*
I like that "Thank you Steve" at 2:49. (I'm assuming a spouse ). That was adorable.
That was for Steve Scott, a vocal teacher, not a spouse. Theo is married to Laura.
This Is Weirder Than Last Years'
And that's what makes it so good! I also love how about 40% is just improv, and playing off of each other (and sometimes against!) to get some good laughs!

Here's something for you - something that'll cleanse your palate,

You gotta change parts! And it goes a little something like this:
We gotta change parts
Only one is just a start
When the bass is singing lead for a change
He sings with new range and heart
We'll learn every note
To every song ever wrote
If your part seems rather boring and bland
Singing bass can be grand, have hope (have hope)
When you're stuck with walking bass lines
Don't just sit around and moan
You can have yourself a good time
Singing with the baritone (with the baritone)
And we groan...
You gotta change parts!
Singing every single part (every single part)
Sure it's great to sing a sweet melody
But listen to me, it's just the start
Harmonize on every part
So what's the heck's the use of singing
The same old thing
We gotta try it every way to make it ring (ring, ring, ring...)
And we're happy when
We change parts
We change parts
We've gotta change parts
We change parts
We've gotta change parts
We like to change parts
Change parts!
Love this!!!!
I see the Like button. Why can I only use it once?
--Dave, also, where is the WTF Was That ZOMG? button?

Fantastic!!!
I never understood the joke in Theo's "He's the baritone" after Kohl's solo. Can someone explain ?
