Gonna go see them this spring break and stop by their house to see how they are doing! And of course im gonna give them big hugs like usual! I love those guys!

  • oh y, 2:52

  • MANN I REALLY WANT TO CRY THEY ARE SO CUTE!

  • Why the fuck am I crying and smiling at the same time while watching this......

  • I'm white wishing I could sing with the soul and heart that I hear from so many Africans. Their choirs always blow me away.

  • gay People dislike this video. :L]

  • @snatcher8 most unnecessary comment ever

  • awesome

  • These guys stay with students from my school :D They are really nice people and have interesting stories... Gotta love them tho!

  • Did anyone else get chills?

  • @thegiantmushroomgrou Interesting fact... the chills you're feeling are the sensation of your brain flooding your nervous system with seratonin. It's identical to the body's response to having sex or doing hard drugs. Difference is, there's nothing negative about a music addiction.

  • @thegiantmushroomgrou I always get chills from this song. It's amazing.

  • awesome

  • doug905, thank you so much for your kind words. what a sweetie you are. Well I did my best with the tools the good Lord gave me. We have not have a "normal" relationship in 23 years, very seldom hear from him. Was diagnosed with Brain Cancer in 2004; not one phone call, card, offer to help, nothing. So there ya go. He is my only child and would die for him. He did give me an amazing granddaughtger Maggie whom is 10. Thanks so mcuh. How about you??

  • Dedicating this song to my son Adrian whom is currently working in Africa. Today November 13 is his 37th Birthday. I miss, love and worry about you so much son. Have a wonderful day, Mom xoxoxo

  • @rosehead1000 Sounds like you molded him into a good person. ;) I wish the best of luck to him!

  • OMG, I did not think this song could make me cry and I was doing pretty good until the end when the kids surrounded Josh in a "group hug", I lost it. The kids do an awesome job with Josh who has an amazing voice!!!

  • why do you dislike this song ?

  • Beautiful!

  • BEAUTIFUL!!!! Just plain and simple....... BEAUTIFUL!

  • This is horrible. I hate how Groban's stealing the spotlight. The children and only the children should be singing this, no matter how bad they are. It's supposed to be about them, not him, yet he gets to open and sing most of the song. It pisses me off, like, I've never even heard of Josh Groban before, but after seeing this, I already dislike him. Seriously. And the kids even hug him at the end. Looks so staged.

  • @shadowblast007 dude shut up. he produced a lot of money for charity and those kids doing that. a choir of children doesnt raise money, thats just the way it is. those kids dont need all the spotlight, there pumped to just bo on the stage with someone that sings as beautifully as he does. they tell josh groban to sing and he did a hell of a job. i bet he didnt even get paid for it.....such a hater

  • he's my fucking uncle, and he doesnt deserve to be hated on by pieces of shit like you.

  • @tb4215

    Watch the video again. The children are basically just the background singers in this performance, when THEY'RE the ones that are supposed to be represented, yet Groban's singing most of the lyrics and the camera and spotlight's on him more. It's as if HE's being the star, rather than the children. I'm just saying this would have been a more effective performance if those children were singing alone. And of course, it would still raise money. Why wouldn't it?

  • @shadowblast007 You may have preferred to hear only the children, but I don't know where you got the "supposed to" from. Groban was invited to perform the song because he made it a huge international hit. He asked the African Children's Choir to join him because he loves music from that region (he's has collaborated with a bunch of African artists) and wanted to give them some US recognition, for which they were thrilled. He's about the least self-aggrandizing artist you could hope to find.

  • @shadowblast007 I also don't understand the "supposed to". Were you planning this performance or something? Who are you to say that anything was "supposed" to happen? It was obviously SUPPOSED to be Josh Groban with the kids backing him up. He isn't really "stealing" anything, the producers gave it to him. And of course it's staged, it's television. That's what happens.

  • all i want for christmas are my two front teeth;) lol jk. they're all so CUTE!!!!

  • send chills straight thru to my heart <3

  • @plesantness

    You are probably some damn rich man or woman who has all their money hoarded in some bank, well go get your freakin money and pay for these children to have dental care.. you idiot!!!

  • @whitesoxfanforsure NOT CALLED FOR!

  • @UniquelyMe27

    I don't have to wait on you to tell it like it is.

  • @whitesoxfanforsure is this really necessary????

  • @plesantness

    what an exploited comment. shame on YOU!!!!

  • Awww :'( This is so touching

  • Do you agree that Micheal jackson should sing with Josh Gorban?

  • @DRIFTDISEASE uhm.. sorry to break it to you, but MJ is kinda dead

  • @krisal007 YEsh I know. But too late. Wat I mean is before he die like 4yrs or 5 before ? Ya know what I mean right?

  • @DRIFTDISEASE he's been dead for over 2 years

  • HAIL SATAN !!!!!!!!!!

  • Lol at the religous people saying " who ever does'nt like this deserves to goto hell!!" really guys? your wishing eternal damnation on someone JUST because they don't like a song? Wow.. yes the song is brilliant, but its not EVERYONES cup of tea. Seriously, i thought religous people were 'king' hearted, i was wrong.

  • *wipes eyes* and says this is just as good now as it was the night it first aired.

  • All those blowjobs in limousines, what dothe matter? What do they mean.. to that little african child trapped in me :)

  • This is so adorable :)

  • Is this a boys or a girls choir or mixed? I can't distinguish it.

  • @weddinganejakopp It's mixed! You can distinguish them by their hats! Boys have a hat and girls have like a ribbon (sorry, i have no idea how to say it in english!)! :)

  • Thank you BooNBoX for posting "AI Josh Groban children choir frm Africa - You Raise Me Up". My heart is overflowing with joy as I looked into the beautiful eyes of the children. They had such lovely smiles and appeared to be celebrating the moment they were in. God bless the children of the world! Josh Groban's "You Raise Me Up" always brings tears to my eyes.

  • Surely you don't like this song, surely there is lion and lamb , surely there is nigth and day, surely you think that you got the power to it by yourself; you rise your self up alone!!! lol if you knew what is the meaning of this song to weak people that been made strong by the POWER of...the...holy... Ghost -----(and not by the subconcient mind or the positif thinking, or noelse)

  • I am left speechless with a mix of goosebumps, tears and joy. This made my night.

  • (in all respect)

    to many people say god is the one who saves us all, when honestly i think god just is an excuse for us saving our selves. 

  • @garfieldonpepsi9

    I'm sorry but i have to disagree how could we forgive ourselves of our own sins? did you send you r son to calvary to save the whole world.. no i don't think any of us would do that GOD gave his only son to save this whole world read John 3:16-18

  • Aw I love the childrens' choir! If I were Josh Groban, I don't think I could sing that song with them without crying. They're so cute!

  • omg...im man and crying.....lol..how can..??

  • how can 77 people not like this...lord please help those people

  • @bandfreak63 you are right. Those 77 people need divine intervention, to help them come down to human levels. They need to be not only human, but humane, well!!!! God help them!

  • @bandfreak63 a correction to the earlier reply. I am sorry for the error (coming down to...) Those 77 people need divine intervention, to help them come up to human levels. They need to be not only human, but humane, well!!!! God help them!

  • @bandfreak63 its up to 83 now,and they are all probably those of cold heart and anger!! Maybe if they accepted the lord,they would appreciate this

  • @myjoeyd i know and for a guy it truly does break my heart that such cold hearted people could dislike this....there needs to be a special place in hell for everyone who dislikes videos like this...ive seen some beautiful songs just be totally taken advantage of..please pray for these horrible people

  • @bandfreak63 hopefully before these ignorant people go to hell,they fall into a puddle of aids!!!

  • @myjoeyd they deserve such cruel punishment,i think god has already got a place for these people ready..hes going to send them to the devil where they should spend the rest of enternity burning in hell!

  • @bandfreak63 Look at yourself, you are sending this people to burn in hell only because they don´t like the song!!!!! And who should go to hell now????

  • @KyraVEB what are you trying to prove.... there are 5000 likes in this video...2 million people have watched this video.. trhat must mean that there are thousands of people that like this song. if you dont like this song then thats your choice but i dont think you should hate just for the fun of it!

  • @bandfreak63 But I have never said that I don´t like the video, I just don´t like when somebody send people to hell only because they don´t like the song. Jesus it´s their opinion, isn´t it? Or am I wrong????????

  • @KyraVEB yes it is jesus's choice whether not he wants to send someone to hell. all i was meaning is that i dont understand what type of people could dislike this video. you are taking everything to literal. now that is all i have got to say!

  • @bandfreak63 Ow, maybe theh just don't like the quality of the video ^^

  • @bandfreak63 You know its a good song when the dislikes from 6 months ago is only 7 off

  • @bandfreak63 i agree with you only idiot could not see their suffering. ingorant cretins
