HAD to come back. This is now one of my favorite songs and I am so jealous that you got to perform it like this!

[@gcharouhas]

This is one of Jeff Lynn's best recording and - possibly - his best song, although Telephone Line is a very close second. Just look at the joy in the faces of these people who clearly love to sing with others. They get it, it's an amazing experience, especially when singing something truly inspiring. This song qualifies.

Amazing. I love it.

[@Reshiyosh]

Sounded pretty good, my only complaint is the misheard lyric at the end (where it originally said "please turn me over" due to being the end of side 3 of the album) but I could see how it makes sense to be changed

[@sugahpop]

it is called "the Mandela effect" the same as in the last line of "we are the champions" not being 'of the world..." but "we are the champions"

[@lraoasisbottle3052]

no one cares :)

[@racheltate8442]

In the beginning, there simply wasn't enough emphasis on the front of each note. And the male voices simply lacked support on portions with lower volume. In conclusion, sloppily done at quite a few points. Notice how the female portions have richer, darker sound. Male portions are simply brittle

[@kathroberts5286]

Is there an arrangement of this available anywhere? It would be perfect for my community choir!

[@THERedstoneRocket189]

the arrangement is by Roger Emerson ;)

God this awful! They can't keep time properly, terrible range. My ears are hurting. This is a lesson on how to kill the best song ever.
