Silver Bells - Rockapella on HSN

[yankeesfan4liffe]

Barry Carl = BEAST!

[sandyorange]

this is the best version of silver bells ever!

[OneHonestCritic]

I miss the original Rockapella Group. New group is alright but it's not as heartfelt.

[vetyp619]

3 peoples silver bells have rusted :P

I sang this song with my big brother Cody before he went away...I cant sing this song without tearing up now...(Not that I could before >.<)

[Teeninchee]

I MISS ROCKAPELLA!! My kids grew up on "Where in the world is Carmen San Diego and Rockapella. I heard someone singing Silver Bells just now and told my youngest (29 yrs old) I miss hearing...and she finished the sentence...Rockapella singing it. So, here I am walking down memory lane...OH YEAH!!

[Gunrose11]

Scott Leonard a man with jawbones that can cut through steel

[tonodagreat]

Ok just gotta throw a comment in...who the hell keeps "disliking" all the rockapella videos? This is some good stuff right here...

[TheJoshinator1]

Of course he isnt! He's a cyborg sent from the future to wipe out our inferior race with his pure awesomeness. X-D I kid, I kid. You know, it almost sounds (and looks) like he's rubbing the microphone across the stubble on his chin. Other than that, I have absolutely no idea how he could be doing that sound. I guess that's the wonder that is Jeff Thacher.

[jesusmann0777]

@tagurit2 that is exactly watt i thought

[wyomon1]

this is tight

[MrMusikke]

wow, jeff's sleigh bells at the end are incredible!!

[cootieof03]

I love them!!

[darkmeat1977]

Awesome! But, don't you wish the video went about :20 seconds longer so you could hear HSN verbally leg humping them?

[BACCSL]

My favorite Christmas arrangement.

[hiphopfarendo]

I'm so glad my parents raised me on this group, or I'd have no idea who they were.

I don't know what I'd do without their christmas songs.

[Elemenopeecue]

I'm never one for the "cover" songs. I like most of Rockapella's original songs better. But this song and "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day" are so beautifully arranged and executed that they've become two of my Rockapella favorites. Just gorgeous harmonies!

[Ziggy1614]

yeah i know what you mean. Usually christmas songs are arranged crappy and reall cheesy. But rockapella change all that and now i actually like the songs. lol

[emmcclelland]

where did you hear "I heard the bells on christmas day"?

[jimraw1]

It's on Rockapella's 2000 CD - "Rockapella Christmas"

[Krautkillah]

<3 <3 <3 in the air there's a feeling of christmas <3 <3 <3 SILVERBELLSSILVERBELLS <3 <3 <3 ITSCHRISTMASTIMEINTHECITY! <3 <3 <3

[TamaAfakasi08]

da guy singin bass is crazy good! hes holdin da melody of the song together! imma big fan!

[icybear1]

barry carl. he is great isn't he?

[superrandy69]

barry carl was always my fav

[newwaveknight1]

@icybear1 The best bass in an acapella group ever. I'm a second tenor, so I'm jealous of his cool, low voice.

[midgeton]

barry carl, yes he is amazing.

if you like the low notes search for 'papa oom mow' i think it is

[hootypatootie]

Perfect.

[ladynesaia]

i absolutely love the eliot and kevin's sounds together.

[danielw1245]

which are kevin and elliot?

[ladynesaia]

Kevin has the curly hair. El is wearing the read pants!

[danielw1245]

gotta love those red pants...

[ladynesaia]

PS El is no longer with the group and neither is Barry Carl (the bass). George Baldi III took over for Barry and John Brown took over El's place. :-)

[tOFFjEPP]

@ladynesaia And now, Kevin is no longr with them either!

[sokker88]

the lead singer is wearing eye shadow...i don't like the song anymore after figuriing that out

[kaizer250]

Dude, it's TV. Of course he's wearing makeup. They're all wearing makeup.

[UberAznPwner]

they still sound good...just dont look at him. :D and it's not that noticeable...

[inupiaqpride]

wtf is eye shadow???? haha or what the heck does it look like??? haha

[sokker88]

you don't know what eye shadow is?? lol

[inupiaqpride]

haha apparently not... sorry but im not a girl... heard of it.. just never.. dont know what it does or looks like

[Stehwan]

lol! How the hell does Jeff do this?! :-D Amazing! :-)

[ticklemebad]

The Leader of this song looks like Owen Wilson!

[sandyorange]

ya! so agree!

[SpitsBeaTz]

seen them live, awesome!!

[bookfreak]

jeff's bells are SUPERB.

[SpitsBeaTz]

agreed haha.

took me sometime to figure it out.

[Huebert3000]

Its a double entendre

[lightcycleman]

Gah! How did he do that?!?!

I've heard of everything from a turntable to lazers, but jingle bells?! That was awesome!!!

[inupiaqpride]

well thats just how freakin awesome they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[xfactor6006]

Wow, Rockapella is awesome. By far the best A Capella group out there. I can't stop listening to these guys!

[CrUNkstA27]

shrie.. lolz..

[bhsbass]

its gay that the recording that i have doesnt have beat box =[... this is wayyy better with beat box.. =]

[eruleptanero]

Are you saying that the sounds Jeff makes in this video are not vocal percussion?

[chrstphrlwsn21]

Beat-boxing is vocal percussion. It's one of many different styles.

[eruleptanero]

Yes, I know that. On the other hand, bhsbass does not seem to understand this concept.

[chrstphrlwsn21]

I think what he's saying is that he has a version of this that is either not by Rockapella, or just does not have a vocal percussionist in it. If I'm reading that correctly.

[eruleptanero]

Okay, I was completely reading that comment wrong. My apologies to bhsbass.

[chrstphrlwsn21]

Yeah.  Took me a couple of tries to figure out myself.

[bhsbass]

lol sorry every one.. Ill say it again.. I have an mp3 of Rockapella from the album Three Bash or something like that.. In that, There is no beat boxing.. This YouTube clip has that dude doing his beat box thing which is awesome.. I just wish that my mp3 had the beat boxing too..

Chill =]

[UberAznPwner]

yeah so do I but personally, I think this version is better. :D

[lightcycleman]

Well, if you go on to the iTunes store, they have the two Christmas albums for Rockapella, and the one titled "Rockapella Christmas" has the Silver Bells arrangement that is shown here. I have both of the CDs and I love them.  This group is amazing.

[omgdudewhattheheck]

lol I love some of Scott's facial expressions :D

[jemray2099]

I like how Jeff does the bells after...very nice!

[xfactor6006]

Yeah! It sounds so real! As if you were watching a Christmas movie!

[Georgemikejus]

Glorious, Absolutely Glorious, I would Give anything to meet Scott Leonard, and sing with Him.

[animaltj619]

this is gay

[totalJeffgroupie]

I agree with you shawnamb Elliott sounds REALLY good in these videos lol

[shawnamb]

I LOVE Elliott's voice in this song.... *swoon!!* lol! & Jeff's amazing sleigh bells at the end! He sounds just like them!! All the guys are equally good in this song though.

[rkpbaby]

[agasi181]

[Georgemikejus]
