Gregorian - Ordinary world

[mundomagico77]

so weird to hear these hooded men that look like 'celibate' monks talking about such things as the content of the lyrics of this song!! And just to be pedantic with the crazy arguments on here - it does become polyphonic at the end when they do a few harmonies! lol!

[Waxwing66]

'Gregorian' are a group of top session singers and musicians that perform music in the 'chant' style. There is no need to get hung up on religious connotations. Just listen to the beautiful music and enjoy. As I do.

[betsybk56]

I love everything they do! Yes, I am Catholic...awesome...

[lessiv]

@zihorah Gregorian chant is unisonous and a cappella, so it's not a gregorian chant

[MrPleasentville]

love duran duran ,but this is wicked ..well done by gregorian.

[thereyoke]

Creepy

But i like everythings creepy

[MrCrgl]

THESE ARE A BUNCH OF CLOWNS IN CLOAKS, THIS IS NOT RELIGIOUS MUSIC, THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GREGORIAN CHANT. FUCK THIS SHIT !!!!!!1

[slaxxgurl]

@MrCrgl this IS gregorian chanting but infused with instrumentals BECAUSE they "mostly" only do revivals which will never sound complete WITHOUT instrumentals. but i do agree that this and their group are definitely not connected to any religion.

[MrCrgl]

@slaxxgurl you dont know what you are talking about. You dont know nothing about gregorian chant.

[slaxxgurl]

@MrCrgl umm... yes i do sir. i know about it. speaking in the strictest sense of "gregorian chant" yes this group doesn't do justice. but it's good enough, harmony-wise and voice range-wise.

[MrCrgl]

@slaxxgurl please, stop, your same words reveal your ignorance on the subject, beginning with...Gregorian Chant is MONOPHONIC, it cant be"harmony-wise"

[slaxxgurl]

@MrCrgl sir by harmony i mean their voices not the melody. i do know it's supposed to be monophonic in the same way groups sing in mass in churches, and that's also where gregorian chanting originated (if what i studied is correct). so anyway, you're the expert in gregorian chants now, you want me to acknowledge that? ok it's acknowledged. i still consider them gregorian chanters though. doesn't change anything. *shrug*

[MrCrgl]

@slaxxgurl Exactly! the voices melody in gregorian chant is monophonic, not poliphonic. Polyphony wont be fully depeloped until the 17th century.

[slaxxgurl]

@MrCrgl i said... voice... not the melody... or whatever you call it... tone or whatnot. i'm not a music major so this is not my jargon... but i did study this a bit in art history so i'm a little familiar with it. anyway like i said, that's what they call themselves, masters of gregorian chant, so i'm just gonna go with it. no point arguing.

[MrCrgl]

@slaxxgurl yes, I can see your ignorance on the subject. You dont know the difference between monophonic and poliphonic chant. 

[slaxxgurl]

@MrCrgl *headdesk* you know what? i'm not going to reply to you again after this. because, yeah, call me ignorant if you want to, i don't really care. and i know the diff between mono and pol"y"phonic, one of which is the spelling, yeah? so, ok. i'm the idiot and you're the genius. happy now? ok. i'm just gonna listen here and keep quiet, while you go ahead and wallow in your super bright halo of self-confidence. tata~

[MrCrgl]

@slaxxgurl ok, fair enough, this is not gregorian chant in any sense. 

[Pansikoser]

@MrCrgl thank you for the confusing clarification, but at some point i would love to hear the information you will share in the future to sound less obnoxious and arrogant, i'm sad to say but you... type... like one... also do not reason with me that you are just correcting someones mistake... there are much positive ways of doing it, excuse my intrusion and unrelated comment to the video...

[MrCrgl]

@Pansikoser My clarification is simple: gregorian chant is monophonic, meaning that just one line of melody is present. This "gregorian" chanters sing in harmony (poliphonically). Did you underestand ?

[Pansikoser]

@MrCrgl *nods* i see... sad that the accompanying other elements of its harmony makes the genre loose it's essence... but it does sound very nice to the ears

[MrCrgl]

@Pansikoser Exactly, that is the only point Im making. It is not gregorian chan in no sense. It is boring also.

[ronomasd]

i just now noticed this is a song by Red ahahahaha...i feel stupid :P

[MrTurdFurgeson]

@ronomasd

Its actually a cover by Red.. The original is by Duran Duran.

[MrCrgl]

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GREGORIAN CHANT, THIS IS PLAIN STUPID. JUST MUSIC IGNORANT LIKE THIS SHIT. THANKS

[Yarrick2k5]

@MrCrgl whilst you fart about with music genres and labels, the rest of us will enjoy the music

[MrCrgl]

@Yarrick2k5 my major critique is not about music genres. Is just that this is stupid. smell my fart.

[MrCrgl]

This the funniest shit I've heard !

[zihorah]

@MrCrgl

I think you lived a troubled life as your parents whom did not raise you to be humble and polite on your comments. Wondering have you been baptised, do you attend church, celebrate christmas and new year.

have you thought about your final destination after death,? I will pray for you that lord jesus christ touches your heart for the sake of your salvation.

[MrCrgl]

@zihorah Actually, my parents raised me in a home full of love, an excellent education and put me in music classes. Thanks to this I have an excellent taste in music. Thats why I am qualified to say that this is a PIECE OF SHIT. Ive been baptised since my parents are religious but right now they understand that I dont believe in none of that. You can save your praying. If you think this is good you are the ones who need salvation. hahaha

[zihorah]

@MrCrgl

you pretend you have all you need, but your language tells the opposit and does not come from a good parents nor a child. i think this is not a place for you, this is a music of every church and musicians all over the world sinc 160 till today, I am sure you do not have any knowledge obout its history nor its origin.

will pray for you may the lord touch your heart. if you do not like things you do not have to say bad word about it, millions love it and love you too, so do I.

[MrCrgl]

@zihorah WHAT ???!!!! are you aware that this doesnt have anything to do with gregorian chant ??? less with religious music ??? I even doubt that those guys are religious, ...maybe a bunch of clowns in cloaks hahaha

[zihorah]

@MrCrgl

if not gregorian what is it?

do not give those nice singers yours and your parents imgage, clown does not has talent but f words. so they are not clown

[MrCrgl]

@zihorah You obviously dont know anything about historical music. You tell me what this is.

[RyoshiTakara]

Se ven como unos viles pendejos... pero no se si puedo criticar el sonido... demaciado bueno

[MrCrgl]

@RyoshiTakara la musica tambien es bien pendeja. si no te das cuenta eres un vil pendejo

[RyoshiTakara]

@MrCrgl Mmm se me hace q el pendejo es otro =|

[MrCrgl]

@RyoshiTakara Se me hace que un pendejo que se hace llamar como anime japones tiene q ser BIEN PENDEJO

[RyoshiTakara]

@MrCrgl Como anime japones.... pala madre siseras pendejo este no es ningun nombre de anime estupido xDDDDD, usa un poco el sentido comun xD

[RyoshiTakara]

@MrCrgl  Que no hayas salido de tu pais no es para nada mi culpa xD

[MrCrgl]

@RyoshiTakara dime donde tu has estado y te dire que alli he cagado.

[RyoshiTakara]

@MrCrgl Patetico

[manuzamar]

No tiene nada que ver con el canto gregoriano, es un Fail historico!

Lo que estan haciendo es un cover de Duran Duran... con mucha reverb....

[kvazat]

mi soul sing

[cindyao]

AMAZING ;)

[tdhbard2002]

This is still trippy hearing a Gregorian choral group singing a Duran Duran song...kind of surreal, but ok :)

[anuexercisebook]

i m indian but i like gregorian chant and also like christ halleluah

[LiterallyTheJoy]

I was having trouble sleep, for the third night in a row, so I got up to listen to some soothing music. I think is helping.

[jessenuf]

@LiterallyTheJoy I listen to a lot of Hindu mantras, they seem to help sleep come a little easier.

[RayvenCee]

This is my favorite song!!!! Awesome remake just wow!

[losdoradosdevilla]

This music is GOOD,I really like it.

[chiffmonkey]

@Luxthepanther Only marginally, as they miss out a chord in the verse that's quite a shame.

[JPTR2A]

I love the cover of this song, but the vid is terrible!

[OuttaEgypt]

I like Gregorian, but this song is one of those gems that if you know you won't be able to do it justice, you're better off not touching it even with a 10-foot-pole. The same goes for Red and all the other bands who've made such an attempt. It's like trying to cover Pink Floyd's "Another Brick In The Wall" or a Michael Jackson song. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I respect all the covers, but nothing compares to the original.

[chiffmonkey]

@OuttaEgypt Funny you should mention PF, because their cover of High Hopes is amazing and has a 'plague-bells ringing your doom' feel.

[yamahonkawazuki]

@Luxthepanther ehh ill have to disagree wiht you on that. BUT respect your opinion. :)

[ChicanoTattooArt]

gregorian chant

[blameist]

Wow fantastic never knew a regular song could be so moving in a chant! Thanks for the upload this is a rarity!

[kvazat]

[aurelioamado1]

Uma delícia para os ouvidos e espírito!

[thisone248]

I like this version. Nice tribute to Duran Duran.

[jackofnowhere]

whats that music that starts up at the end

[moppendoosje]

What a wonderful video thanks for sharing with my thumbs for you !!!!! Love and Light Bo

[ElusvOptmst]

I think it is wonderful that the monks are embracing today's music. Its good to hear their interpretation. Enjoy it. If you don't like it then don't listen and don't look. Its that simple.

[LxP1992]

@ElusvOptmst these guys aren't monks... They are "normal" men who sing modern songs in medieval monk-chant style

[ElusvOptmst]

Love it.

[applesweeter]

Are they the real father in church?

[SoulGunMetal]

lol comic genius.

[Drtalento]

what music comes after this music?

[MrFennmeista]

I love these guys, that's why I came back.

[silentobservor]

I love the kind of music that sings directly to the soul....

[MrFennmeista]

Are these real monks. ?

[LifePictures81]

@MrFennmeista

No, they aren't.

[MrFennmeista]

the monk at 0:00 was Yawning... and the camera caught him lol.

[Mackenzie1942]

No that is the beginning chant, see the others are doing the same thing (and you can actually hear the "ah..." at the beginning)~~@MrFennmeista

[MrFennmeista]

@Mackenzie1942

then they're all Yawning lolz

[Mackenzie1942]

dude......@MrFennmeista

[gcanos]

@MrFennmeista yawning?? are you stupid?? It's so clear that this video continues from a previous video !!! this is a non-stop music ... please first listen their music ...

[MrFennmeista]

@gcanos

No I'm not stupid, You idiots are for not understanding sarcasm. lmao.

[ericdisney1]

@gcanos hahahahahah!!!!!!!!!

[gamerboy4life1]

I'm sorry but this is horrible it may be peaceful and shit but it's just horrible

[66Ryansworld]

@gamerboy4life1 go to hell asshole

[GCn64]

@arbabshereen

duran duran version of course

[ULMOify]

Even if they just stand in formation without walking around so much, they would still sounded good........LOL......Great arrangement still though....

[chronokun17]

me chorreo con este video es mi favorito.

[royrashbrook]

I know some of the guys in this video. All properly trained classical choral/operatic singers. How they managed to keep their faces straight singing the tosh in this video is beyond me.

[Fremder5]

,,What has happened to it all?

Crazy, some'd say

Where is the life that I recognize?

But I won't cry for yesterday

there's an ordinary world"

true true...

[LordPBA]

[xllGustavollx]

[KirkCZ]

@xllGustavollx  They are imitating monks

[rogerfabon]

[Fremder5]

[littletexan1963]

[wayneubs]

thanks for this post great stuff

[ILHOVIDEO2]

Very beautiful !

[foolecoole]

I am not going to hit the dislike button but i dont like this version.

[gabrielcorr]

i wish hear "live to tell" of madonna on gregoriant chant... that cover would be awsome...

[hector012672]

i love the Duran Duran version, but i have to give it to them. First time hearing them and i love it. if you like this version listen to the one by Simon LeBon and Luciano Pavorrati

[kas1236]

WHAT ORDINARY WORLD BY RED A CRISTIAN BAND

[magic1swizerland]

Atheist is the best of all ! but this music is very nice

[limpopo18]

@magic1swizerland how do you know? you must be a god to be sure =)))

[magic1swizerland]

@limpopo18 xD maybye ^^

[snakedemon11]

@magic1swizerland im shaking now, i dont kno whether to be angry or cry....i thought this video would be a place of peace for the faithful, yet there is always those who want to make the devil known in the world.

[doodleplop800]

@snakedemon11

I think you're looking too far into religion, draw comfort but don't take it too literally.

[Daaaaf]

@snakedemon11 While i'm sure it wasn't your intention, what you posted here is actually amazingly intolerant.

[Mafiababe888]

not bad, the original version is still the best though :D

[stackpole2004]

Their Druids!

[DepecheMachina]

I love reading the shocked reactions to this video. it makes me laugh. i don't know what to think of this video, on one hand i think it's very peaceful and beautiful, on the other hand i can't help but laugh.

[Marzenka861]

can i download this wideo to my laptop???????????

[garrik9]

very soothing

[sleepybom]

hahahahaha

[pcampbell17]

Beautiful. Why did they even want to change this back in 1965

[Guest655321]

Step aside duran duran.

[Jammy0507]

It`s great

Love Love Love ♥

[slvrwolver]

It make you think about the love you had and now she had slipped away forever.That is what I feel when I hear songs like this.

[sapraschi]

....dieses Lied ist ein wundervolles Geschenk.... thanks for sharing :-)

[Wolnosc7]

Musik :-)

[omarqb]

wow i like it; sounds real koo, make me wanna hop on my 2006 mustang gt convetable and drive my ass off- and the funny thing is- i dont know why these guys makes me feel this way? as if the music triggers an inner peace that wants to cry out the excitment of freedom we have and makes me really appreciate and bask in the fact that we live in the greatest country in the world-- U.S.A!!! despite our short commings....... thanks for reading........ God bless

[spike8742]

@omarqb And what about the people who live in other countries, and not in the US? I'm from Hungary for example.

[omarqb]

@spike8742 what about other ppl. sorry i dont get your question

[xXxroseXrapunzelxXx]

what the hell is this. i can't believe what i've just stumbled across. are these people mental?

[xRage10]

@xXxroseXrapunzelxXx Why yes, yes they are.

[canucktheclown]

Not ignorant at all...

[NutSixteen]

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

[interferencemusic]

I love Duran Duran. I love Gregorian chants. I do not care for the mix of the two in this particular situation, however.

[garfield0376]

einfach nur wunderschön...Hab mir gestern das Christmas Chants Album gekauft

[bryngOneOn]

where can i get a yellow duvet like that, i'm freezin, love to walk round my home with that draped round me......i could do some fantasy role play, like teeangers singing into the mirror with a hairbrush. maybe not

[bryngOneOn]

[WarFite]

@bryngOneOn HAHA Lol it looks like him.

[371gm]

JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA­JAJAJAJAJAJAJ PATHETIC! 

[cehaver]

Thank you for posting, but this just creeps me the hell out.

[muzz100]

@cehaver totally. bearded men wearing orange tents sing today`s hits in the style of ancient religious vocal masterpieces with a soft rock beat in the background. very very strange - not in a good way. if i had seen this as a kid, i would have wet the bed for sure when the nightmares came.....

[d3nikk]

@muzz100 lol.. they are a fucking chorus.. you want them to come in leather jackets?

[GarretHouse]

Hey, Red does this song! I wonder which came first?

[DiegoTrovador]

ESTO NO ES MUSICA

ES UNA DEMIGRACIÓN AL VERDADERO CANTO GREGORIANO

[santbatarse]

yo tmb quiero un impermeable

[sheffieldsavenue7683]

[Vikko4ka]

[nataaalia23]

[MisterGoFuckYourSelf]

[rise357]

I find this wierd too!!!! I prefer the chanting to be done in Latin.

[WKruser]

Ehre sei den Ori :)

[Kill0rbAg]

@WKruser

xD 

[AimHighSwitchfoot]

Personally, I like RED's version better, but it's cool to see where it came from.

[ojerasdejair]

hermosa cancion,  solo escucharla da paz...

[WilliamAndrews1969]

As a Duranie, I just find this a bit weird...

[attis84]

For this, I give you six chapters from the Book.

[BroJamesler]

[SensaiMan]

This is great give me more.

Well done lads.
