not the same as the choir that sings the national anthem
Also the "oh they're above us" is referring to the soloists directly above us as we couldn't see where they were like we could see the rest of the soloists throughout the piece - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Simply breathtaking. I can only imagine what it must have sounded like in person. I am fighting back tears.
It was so amazing!
"I am fighting back tears."
I gave up the fight.
Yeah, me too. ;)
I didn't bother fighting
Honestly just absolutely breathtaking. I’m a member and former member of several choirs (weird flex but ok), this is one of my favorite pieces and y’all did it as perfectly as I’ve ever heard
recorder: "Oh they're above us."
random dude: *whispers back* "they're...EVERYWHERE..."
Me: SHUT UP YOU RUINED IT!!!
I love the "they're everywhere" lmao
2:58
I’m your 900 comment
We are every where wahaha
_hotel space with good acoustics exists_
*high school choirs:* "its free real estate"
Truth!! Us choir kids will sing anywhere with good acoustics
Shelby-Lee Baker right..once we sang in a zoo..don’t ask why 🤣
@@novia8429 anywhere where the acoustics we break out in song.lol its always a blast having choir nerds together
I hope this comment is in reference to the choir that sang around a hotel indoor pool
@@boghara1118 Haha, that was great
What strikes me is how clearly hear the lyrics despite the being sung by hundreds of individual voices. Very impressive
It's the building. The acoustics are great. Some places this would sound like garbage
@@patrickhamilton6677nah, they're just in time enough for it to sound good. I've heard a group of this size in a building with shit acoustics and it sounded just as good musically
Additionally its a skill they actually teach in choir, its really easy to sound messy if you dont all annunciate like CRAZY. Zoom in on anyone singing choir ever and you can see how much they have to put into making the individual sounds needed to construct the word, on top of also being on time all together
@@zarico6157 Music major here, can confirm. Our choir director really wants us to sound like University of North Texas and even when we nail pitches we repeat things Ad nauseam until we get the “text” right 🙄
@@patrickhamilton6677 There are a number of factors - the lyrical group is small (arrangement) at the start, as it grows in number it gets more messy as is obvious at 1:10 for example.
The “oh their above us” at the end has the same energy as “and they were roommates”
LMAO IT DOES!
Hotel Manager: Okay. Just keep it down, please.
Choir gathers: 🤓
blazematt10 Are you serious?!!
TURN THE FREAKIN VOLUME UP
😂😂😂 That’s exactly what I was thinking!
Haha
We'll keep it down
In the river
Hilarious.
You're staying at a hotel after burying a loved one. Turn in early cause it's been sn exhausting day. You wake to angels singing.
James Modlin I’m crying
♥️
Lord. I'd just sit there. Crying and singing.
I would take that like a message from God
GOrgeous a cappella!!
“Oh they’re above us.”
“The angels singing? Yes, yes they are.”
Kinda what I thought
As an ex choir kid this hit hard. The way they're laid out means there's no way they can see the director. They know the song so well and know each other and their own sound well enough to fly solo like this. It's the most amazing feeling to do and creates the most amazing sound. True talent, skill, and grace.
Exactly! The soloists had to basically inhale together to start.
The morning of 9/11 we sang The Prayer of The Children laying on the floor/risers with the lights off. No windows in that room. It was pitch black.
Oh this is straight up spontaneous. Source: former band nerd

Bomb ass comment. Lmao I'm still laughing.
Lol, clever.
Imagine being like an 80 yr/old and hear this in the middle of the night and think you made it to the upper room😂😂
80 year old:
"My time has come" lol
I feel like this would be an ok way to go..
@@CapeHatteras99if one could only be so fortunate.
honestly if was old that wouldve been the perfect way to die. think about it, high rise hotel, window open looking out at the city lights. your thinking about a long life, then you hear hundreds of young people singing an old southern gospel song, as your eyes close on the last note never to open again.
I feel like you wanted someone to chime in and sing 🎶 the upper rooom 🎶 and they left you hanging in the comments 😂
As a member of the 1989 Colorado All State Choir, I can attest that the hotel balcony sing was the most memorable and awe inspiring of the entire weekend.
Literally everybody in the hotel: Can I just get some SLEEP- oh nvm this is better
They probably fell to sleep listening to it xD
No, I would GET OUT and listen like when does that even happen and it sounds so guuuuuud.
Aidan Martinez I would be complaining, shut the hell up I want to SLEEP
💁
Aidan Martinez usually in these events the choir has the whole hotel to them selves
some of y'all fail to realize that they rent out pretty much the whole hotel.. everyone from colorado who made it in stays in that very hotel. its all choir kids.

@@BenPoulsen what hotel is this?
I was scrolling through the comments and I saw a story of a lady who was there for her mom's funeral! It was moving
I'm not a religious person, but songs like this make me believe in God for just a minute. I cant even imagine standing on one of those balconies and hearing the harmony swelling around you.
Oh my young friend this may be the singular instance in which Jesus through the strength of the Holy Spirit gives you the opportunity to trust in Him and enjoy knowing your eternity is sealed and protected by God Himself... :)
He's given you a special opportunity, what will You do with it????

@@belleerion6549 Way to make Christianity seem like a sleezy sales pitch. I'm sure you're really winning people over.
@@tylerjeb7888 it's not a sales pitch, but it's also not going to be the easy path. Everyday we deal with struggles of temptation, but with the power of Jesus Christ we can stay with him for eternity. I challenge you to look in the Bible in whatever your heart desires, and spend some time reading a few verses. Pray over it and ask God to hold you throughout your life.
I'm the same way. I don't fully believe but songs like these are so comforting. It makes me feel close to all my family that's passed away. Gotta love it.
@@emilykaurin6797 It's pretty sleazy to try to convince someone to be a victim of your imaginary friend, Emily.
Bees buzz, wolves howl, birds chirp, but only humankind can gather together and compose and sing such glorious sounds that not only delight the ear but connect directly to the soul.
I would not be so quick to count out the wolves and the birds. They've been singing for far longer than we have.
Amen, matt 🙏🌹❤️
And the whales.
@@helenwood3199 Thank you Helen. You are absolutely right. Listening to their songs is truly magical and mystical.
The one person who isn’t a choir kid trying to sleep
Pepperoni Toni it was like 4 PM so no one was actually sleeping then :) also, pretty much the entire hotel was full of us!
This isn't to sleep, it's to AWAKE!
@@SarahSmith-fq4xi that's so cool
Hahaha I would be super happy if this woke me up, honestly.
I could fall asleep hearing heaven knowing that angels are outside protecting meh, but waking up to this would be me waking up in heaven. 😇
Imagine staying in the hotel, going to bed early, and then waking up to this...
You'd think “GOD?! Is that you!”
Yup! And I would be like I'm ready if you are ready to take me!😊🙏
Me: “Oh dear God, almighty father, I haven’t done what I’m supposed to. Spare me and let me repent and make up for those.
God: “no”
Me: “understandable I’m getting out now”

Lmao am i dead
I'm a music major and I've performed for 3 years at the Texas all state band in high school and I just wanted to say the fact that there's over 200 singers and you can hear the lyrics clearly and perfectly is amazing.

Usually we actually sing “you reposted in the wrong neighborhood” actually
i always love to heard how the harmony builds. I was in chorus for all 12 years of school (elementary to high school) and each time it always gives me chills.
First the sisters, then the brothers, fathers and mothers, finally the sinners. Everyone.
@@paynsiclesproductions9316 bro what
Well that's it, boys. I've been redeemed! The choir has done washed away all my sins and transgressions. It's straight and narrow from here on out and heaven everlasting's my reward! Neither god or man has nothing on me now. Come on in boys the water is fine.
If you don’t get this quote, I feel bad for you.

No thank you, Delmar. One third of a gopher would only arouse my appetite without bedding it down.

The boys locker room: having wars
Aliens locker room:
Can confirm, after you get past the jerks who accuse you of being lesbian and staring at them, this is exactly how female locker rooms are
And the boys sing too
Noa Pohjaniemi I realized that XD
Rei_whatislife -.- nah this is still the guys locker room
This is the boys locker room on Wednesday’s
I remember this performance like it was yesterday. I was on the second to the top floor. A little ways into the song, this woman left her room and joined in. She knew the part in everything. After we had finished, she told me and my roommates about how she had sang this song before. I had assumed it was something she had sang in church maybe a year or so ago, but it turns out the last time she had sang this was when she sang in an Allstate choir in New York, about 10 years ago. That really stuck with me. Her story really showed me how music stays with you. No matter where you are or however long it’s been, when a piece of music means a lot to you, it becomes engraved into your mind, and so do the memories that go along with it.
Casey Greyson this is absolutely beautiful and a heartwarming of a story
That’s amazing
I first heard that song in the 2002 movie: Oh Brother Where Art Thou? and it was sung by Allison Kraus. Also Emilou Harris and Gilian Welch sang back up I think.
Gezz. That story gave me chills!
Awesome!! God I miss choir.
i´ve heard now many many versions and THIS is the BEST.. for me no other truly compares..
People need more of this. Going to a building to sing together no matter how good or bad you are. Singing in a bad times is just like laughter. It's true prayer.
*imagine having a mental breakdown then you run out to here this*
Pretty much would restore my sanity 10/10
I would run out over and over again just to hear this
That was me just now and it popped up on suggested videos

go read and learn before writing a dumb comment like this one
Now that's what I would call Heavens music
It just hits different when you’re part of this, the community, the fact that you are all so different but come together in harmony, it feels so good
The soul hears more than the ears ever will.
These tears and this smile are proof of that.

I've never been more proud to be in a CZcams video. I was on the 4th to top floor. One of the coolest things that ever happened. This video barely describes how magnificent the experience was
I can't imagine how amazing it must have felt. It makes me tear up/cry because of how beautiful it sounds. I can't imagine being a random person and getting to hear this in real life.
Are there more videos of this? Because this is amazing
You should be proud. It was absolutely amazing. Very powerful.
Had me crying like a baby.
what's your voice part?
Imagine you're laying down comfortably in bed behind them, somewhere in one of those rooms - thinking your time is up and these lovely angels are singing while you're panicking. Slowly ascending up to heaven , rip you.
I have always lived with music anhedonia (age 47). I'm incapable of enjoying or having any type of emotional reactions to music. My brain just hears music as another noise. I've never understood how people can "feel" music, until I watched this video. Something about this choir, singing this song, in this location, gave me an emotional response for the first time ever in my life. I got goosebumps at 1:09, and even had a few tears a few moments later. That was amazing. Because of this reaction, I quickly searched for other versions of this song and ended up with my typical response. I hear it, but I don't feel it. I even watched other videos of this choir performing different songs and had no reactions of any kind. Something about this specific performance is able to bring emotion out from within me when no other music before, or since, has managed to do so. I am utterly stunned. Thank you so much for this.
As an ex-choir kid, I can only imagine how amazing this must have been to do. It's just so fun when you can sing with a fuckton of other choir kids and hear the beauty you all can make in a place with nice acoustics. I would've had chills and a huge smile on my face
Selcouth Human I’m also an ex-choir kid. I was in my school’s chorus in middle and high school. We never really had the opportunity to do anything like this, but I wish we did. I would have loved it so much. ❤️
I’ve got chills just watching lol
No truer words could be said!
I wish my school's choir was a little larger now... There are 5, maybe 6 male members and about 30 female members. It still sounds cool but seeing this I kinda wish there were a thousand haha.

Im not gonna lie, every time i hear this i literally bawl, it sounds like angels are singing.

And when the the Altos came in 😊😊😊. Miss my days with my alto gang.
I danced with my mom at mine and my wife's wedding to this song. It's been about a year since she passed but she would've loved to hear this.
I was one of the soloists wtf this is so cool I had no clue this would go viral
We originally had body percussion with it was so cool
I was a part of the Kentucky All-State Choir in 2016 when our national anthem went viral so I feel ya. This is gorgeous. I love it.
I feel honored to get to hear you sing.
You sounded amazing!!!
Good stuff. Sounds amazing

Somebody in that hotel really needed to hear that song. Nothing in life is a coincidence.

The only acceptable version of this
I was in a treble choir in high school and some of my best memories were singing a capella in public places like this with great acoustics. It's like a flash mob. People stop in their tracks to watch. If you sing perfectly in tune you set off overtones, notes that resound off the walls and echo back at you. It's one of the best experiences of my life, connecting through mysic that way. Thanks for the video. It brought me down memory lane!
Heidi Hayward I was just thinking of this. Singing randomly around a piano is such a fun is one of my most cherished memories of my life. I’m glad someone gets it :)
Our choir occasionally practices in the school rotunda. It makes us sound much better than most days when we would typically practice in a regular classroom.
Heidi Hayward did this song in choir and it brought back such gorgeous memories 💜
The first convention I ever went to, some girl started singing Part of Your World in a stairwell and around 30 strangers joined in. I wish I could live in that moment.
Our choir director made us sing in the halls and those were my best memories.
I started crying. You can feel the Holy Spirit and Glory flooding through their angelic voices. You can feel it through the phone. Pure Bliss and Joy and Love. Jesus loves us all so much! ❤️🕊🙏✝️

The Body of Christ is not a religion.
@@philc5499 how is that not a religious thing?
@@Sheriden. A religion is a specific set of beliefs and practices, the Church goes far beyond that. Virtually all the people who shaped the world we live in today were/are Christians and Jews, all with different ideas, aspirations, political views, etc. Studying our history of Science, Medicine, Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Business, Economics, Politics, etc gives a very broad picture to a "religion" that it often painted as very narrow viewpoint. Post modern atheists regard the Church as archaic, backwards, ignorant, etc, while failing to realize all the accomplishments of Western Civilization on which Judeo-Christian principals are built, and how said principals still affect society to this day.
@@philc5499 Do you realize how much religion has held back all of that stuff through out history? There was a time where religions, the same ones that are around today, persecuted scientists and anyone who held an opinion contrary to the church. Your argument is ridiculous.
@@lakaiskates8064 You literally just recited the popular albeit false narrative. I'm sure you refer to, at least in part, the Christian Galileo. While politicians of the day (trying to maintain their power) tried to limit his voice and teachings, he did some of his finest work while under house arrest. Not condoning the actions of the state at the time, but certainly not the persecution story that we are constantly spoon fed via mass media. He also had many supporters, including Maffeo Barberini aka Pope Urban VIII.
Whew. Good grief. I love music. Thank you God for this gift.

I grew up church of Christ and all we do is this. When you’ve got 300-500 people all singing 4 part harmony it’ll blow your socks off. It’s so much more meaningful than a “worship band.” It’s not even remotely the same. I will say, this song needs some BASSSSSSS
You dont need to be religous to appreciate the amazing sound of this. I'm sure not religous, and I'm getting goosebumps
Don’t worry, it’s not religious! Religion is man’s attempt to reach up to god. Christianity is God reaching down to man.😀
I'm agnostic and I love this song. It's on the O' Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack. One of my favorite films and albums ever.
lol same
@@alterego3525 lul wut
I'm not even Christian but I really loved this.
This.
This is why I miss being part of a choir.
This is sacred to me.
That alto line!!!! *falls on floor
Thank you.
Altos for the win
You and me both... I was part of the Institute choir under Marshall McDonald for several concerts on temple square. We did his arrangement of Hark Listen to the Trumpeters in the Assembly Hall, Tabernacle, and Joseph Smith Memorial building. I will *never* forget the harmonics floating over the men in the beginning. I knew in my head it was simply the acoustics, but my heart swore the angels sang with us whenever we were in those venues. My only regret is we never got any recordings of any of our performances.
@Gerard Hurst Honestly same, I could really care less about everything else but because Im so die hard about missing school, I try to keep my grades up (Whilst failing horridly 🤣🙃)
Yes, fellow Alto!
Mad respect for the Alto line, spot on goodness.
I don't believe in God or follow religion but this song touched me.
Such great voices all coming together to create a masterpiece.
If this is what heaven is like then I wish to go there
All Glory be to the Lord Jesus Christ, Our Father and Savior.
When that alto line hit😨
was somebody conducting???? or are they all just 100% in sync??? cause if they aren't being conducted I'm even more blown away
I doubt they were conducted, lots of choirs have their songs locked down by the time they travel to perform 👌
I've done this but with the national anthem in Kentucky and no one was conducting I mean you know this is a tradition and we practiced it alot but ya no conductor was there...
Actually there was a conductor, but bc they're so far down the students mostly didn't look down that I could see
Yes, there was a conductor, but I don't know if the students saw her...
I used to be apart of a children's choir ranging from I think 8 to like 18 somethin like that
And we had put teacher who conducted us, but I'm pretty sure no one had a clue on what she was doing xD
But hey we were all pretty synced xD
Ms. Soprana said "I've been waiting for this 55 years and a day a half IMMA SSSAANNG!"
Imagine what we’d all sound like in heaven 🥹
The Altos dominated this lets be honest.
Love hearing my part!
Oh heck yeah i sang alto 2 in this performance it was fun
Great job both of you! I listened to this 12 times
same lol
100% but I love you hear some good bass
Alto supremacy! Lol
But seriously, I wish altos normally got this dynamic a part in choir music. I got really tired off singing the same two notes in my time in choir.
This is what they will sing in Heaven
I remember singing with my choir while we were standing in line at Disneyland during our Senior Class Trip. Stuff like this is absolutely the most fun one can have with your pals in choir. 😁
