Why is there a Maryland flag hanging in the room if they are in St. Louis? Just curious.

[sexxichicababy]

@kempercole Mr Dunn went to school there.

[Glarner85]

Mr. Dunn's room still looks the same! A-MEN looks great!

[Whatwon1]

[UncleFizzmo]

Gotta love my flamboyant hipster high school <3

[webstergrovesamen]

Sure is.  Webster Groves High School just outside of St Louis, MO.

[framshow]

@bigstitz - I think it is. If you look up Webster Groves A Men on the net, it gives a 314 area code for contact info.

[sexxichicababy]

@framshow it is!

[bigstitz]

Is this webster groves, missouri?

[scribbledrosie]

[Autospam001]

[BenFoldFanForEvs]

i think the guy in the white that yells/sings the high "annie waits" part is really silly looking. some may say he is on the verge of being annoying to look at.

[RTKaczor]

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

[shoobedoobewaa]

great job. ok kid, where'd you get the Charlie Brown shirt???

Hmm??

give it up.

[punmaster8000]

@shoobedoobewaa i was charlie brown in the musical. i had the musical practice right before we sang this song. i love that shirt but unfortunately it is in the costume closet at our high school. so sorry.

[whiteness99999]

Ha, thats awesome. i wish our school would do something like this, thatd be freakin sweet.

[lalalalimabean]

this was beautiful. absolutely beautiful.

[JPBalboa]

cute rendition :)

[Dietmntdoom]

You guys are pretty good, you should definitely work on the harmonies before you add dances moves (back row), it gets really messy.

[kschung15]

you guys are in high school???? holy cow you guys are awesome!!!

[shooterandwinniesmom]

what's with the guy in the charlie brown t shirt? hahaha really good, though!

[eajobe]

this is seriously one of the sexiest things I have ever seen.

[LAURtheBRAVE]

[jollypope]

Amazing!

[FebruaryAirKD]

I LOVE THIS!!! <3

[lastguitar93]

Absolutely raw deliciousness. P.S. the soloist constantly looks like he has to pee. quite amusing. but seriously, quality stuff.

[DaMaceMan]

Wow - what a great performance! Great job, gents ... love the energy! (especially the left side - you guys were extremely entertaining to watch!)

[bobolob]

The choir was great, the soloist could have put more feeling into it.

[tholindas]

so gay...

[SeksiChaps]

woah, didn't know webster groves had voices like this. only if lafayette had something like this....

[TeGeLmuFFin]

Where did you guys find this arrangement?

[sweetlou23]

Excellent job.  Phenomenal job by those young men, and your instructor(s). Thank you for sharing your performance with all of us.

[HAMTAROisdead]

Looks like a fun crowd. Love it so much :) made my day

[eche05]

I wish my school was cool enough for an all-guys a capella group. seriously, this is great

[queenanne45]

Wow! I love it! you guys sound amazing!

[modestgirldavis]

i wish my school was cool enough to have an all guys a Capella choir. You guys are freaking AMAZING!

[bleutuna]

Absolutely fantastic, guys. Made my day :)

[predlsu]

who's doing the beatboxing?

[anitchonmyfoot]

The kid in the white shirt and khaki pants.

[chromaticka]

this just made my heart melt (in a good way.) seriously incredible soloist (i might like your voice better than ben folds's in this... and he's one of my favorite singers of all time.) i wish my school had as many guys as enthusiastic to sing as you all are

[hankvessel]

i like the guy in the charlie brown shirt, fun crowd, good job guys

[link090909]

this is a nice arrangement, could have used more division actually, so that way no one part would have the actual strength to drown out the voice.

also, this a personal thing, understandably the song if lively as done Ben himself, but think about the lyrics.

[gyrader]

Awesome work, guys. Fun, lively and accurate.

[julileaf]

Webster Groves!! I was an exchange student there!

[megiebabie137]

From where?

[julileaf]

Malaysia. XD

[megiebabie137]

Sweet! When?

[UncleFizzmo]

Um, there's from my high school, Webster Groves. In St. Louis, MO.

Not malaysia. wtf?

[matster792]

@UncleFizzmo that's funny, because there's a maryland flag in the background and a university of maryland terps flag...

[UncleFizzmo]

@matster792

I don't recognize the room they're in, but I'm guessing the teacher may have went to that school.

Dude, I'm not lying. These guys go to Webster Grove high school in St. Louis, MO. It says so in the description. I hang out with some of these guys. I know all of them.

[tampaytu]

I really liked it. It would of have been better if I was there!

[drquisp]

still my favorite Ben Folds Acapella song...no one even compares on this song and you are all having fun!

[musicalgirl2009]

that was great.

[txchubstud]

great job!!!! how about a version of not the same

[goinhollywoodorbust]

Totally made my day. Is this a performing arts high school? Because there's a lot of really talented guys here. :)

[anitchonmyfoot]

Just your regular old public high school..

[goinhollywoodorbust]

That's so fantastic that you have this many guys... my high school? not a chance. ;)

[BrigettaRenee]

Haha, loved the Charlie Brown shirt! And the fact that everyone at least LOOKED like they were having lots of fun...

Amazing Job guys!

[hystericalconduct]

This was really amazing. And it looked like you guys were really enjoying yourself, and that makes it even better! All you guys are very talented and should keep doing what you're doing, because you're making my ears very happy. =D

[Jenni728]

omg that was freakin' amazing!!!!!!!!!

[whichalias]

this made my day

[drquisp]

The best Acapella of this song I have heard should have been on his album!

[kukid2594]

i agree

[kukid2594]

how long did you guys work on this?

[anitchonmyfoot]

Not very long at all. We worked on it for like 2 practices and then recorded it the next. Some of us still didn't know the whole song by the day we were planning to record.

[kukid2594]

awesome..amazing..brilliant.. you guys are incredible. I want to do this at my high school! All guys a capella is just sweet

[whichalias]

This is the best A Capella version of this song- and you guys are amusing to boot.

[xxfurdalizerxx]

Whoa, yeah, you guys are amazing. I absolutely LOVE a cappella music and Ben Folds, so this was perfect =]

[SchmuckoftheIrish]

Wow! That was great, especially for a high school. Ben folds has a hard voice to match, and the lead did a great job. Keep it up. Plus, you guys had some awesome moves, lol

[CollyPocket]

This is hilarious. The high-five handclaps are extraordinary. :)

[RAAAAWW]

This is the best A Cappella version of Annie Waits I have ever heard and I have heard a lot considering there was a Ben Folds contest.

[amandathepirate]

an amazing performance guys! lead singer- keep on singing, you've got a really great strength behind your voice that sounds easy and unstressed. tie dyed shirt- nice moves.

[MsDuckykins]

This is from a high school? Jesus, you guys are amazing. =D

Lovelove,

Olivia

[thellieem11]

My goodness, but you guys are amazing! I won't admit to having spent the last hour or so watching and sharing links to your vids... but I might have.

[gimmehotpie]

the best group of guys ive ever seen, getting the boys to sing at my school is hopeless

[amplifiedsunday]

this is possibly THE greatest thing EVER!

[freckleskleinman]

ha ya he does raise his legs:) way good though!! nice!!

[Drbeck711]

Hahah the lead has a weird twitch to move his legs upward. Still good man, better than me.

[7danielradcliffe7]

you guys are officially amazing

[teetertotter595]

this is great :D

[HPhastakenmyheart]

wow this is really good, i wish we had guy singers like this at my school.

btw...did anyone else notice the kid in the back wearing the yellow charlie brown shirt? you know, with the brown zig-zag?

[pinkcooltear]

He was actually playing Charlie Brown in the school musical, he came straight from a practice type thing.

[stlMO09]

lol ya, thats cuz he played charlie brown in the school play

[JPianoPopM]

Huge group, but you guys are pretty damn good.

Are you sure you're highschoolers?

[danielthorndahl]

Very very good lads - keep it up!!!

I made a Youtube account just to write this comment - y'all just made me wanna buy lots of Ben Folds' stuff.

And you mr vocal - u need to pursue a career in music - Need I say Justin or Buble?

Keep working together ppl :)

Daniel T

[NS4270]

This is an awesome version! I love the talent - both in singing and arranging - that Ben Folds music is bringing out. The CD should have been a double, with high school groups included.

[aznfhs17]

I loved this version! I wish you guys made it onto the cd, too :(

[Jonorocks999]

Awesome, really enjoyed that

[ML4M]

I went through and listened to the winners, and I still don't get it. What the heck? Most of them are just boring, and not all that great. You guys should have made it onto the cd!

[huffelpuffheir]

because they are high school group ben was only looking at universty groups.

[wgman09]

Actually, Ben Folds did select a high school group.

[wgman09]

At least for the first cut.

[AFiendishThingie]

Haha you guys are awesome! And you all look so enthusiastic.

Great solo singer too :)

[heartagramify]

wow! i like it!

[erinqfooblee]

this is like the millionth time i've watched this.

it is insanely good. and there's nothing better

than good-looking guys with amazing voices :)

[sistalinda]

Very nice job, gentlemen.

[myeyesaregreen81]

Wonderful beyond words. Excellent soloist. And seriously, the enthousiasm and fun you guys put into makes it ten thousand times better than your average a cappella group. Keep it up!

[bbovenz]

For a high school group this is phenominal performance...

The soloist was very good, and the tone and quality for the most part was also great.

However,

Poor arrangement...very/to repetitive too much Bah and Dah. Try to mix it up a little for each verse, get some bah din do's in there during the bridges/transitions

-The perc (VP) you could tell was by a high school group. Get more bass drum, and more cymbals, and snare. More snare..

Other than that

Awesome job! 5 stars.
