  • Just heard this for the first time on Pandora. So, naturally I checked YouTube. Yours was the first I clicked. First response...OMG! Second, I WANT TO SING IN THAT ROOM! Third, I want to sing with you!. Fourth, awesome arrangement...hymn-like (no surprise: Billy Joel, Springsteen, Elton John, Freddy Mercury ALL confessed to going to hymn chords all the time). Simply beautiful, thanks for posting!

  • @Beeglemon Listened to every version on YT. A few good ones...this is the best!

  • Great! Brings me to tears each time I listen. This song by Billy Joel never made it across to Europe and so the choir version never did either. I'm going to do it with my choir...that is when I no longer cry when I hear it! Thanks!

  • @lizardissimo King's Singers did it

  • Wow! Nice job.Thanks for not overwhelming the song.

  • awesome ! spot on harmonies and tone

  • Are you the Luther College in Iowa or Saskatchewan?

  • @CinemaObsessed Iowa - Go Norse!!

  • Beautiful! Love the Altos!

  • Brilliant! Loved it. Gave me chills.

  • I'd like to see you guys do Morten Lauridsen. Maybe "Dirait-on".

  • I was skeptical when I clicked on this, but holy crap. Great blend and I can even hear the ring through these crappy speakers. Great job.

  • Omg I wanna be in an acapella group sooo bad u guys are soo good!

  • Phenomenal blend! So incredibly smooth!  Very impressive.

  • Here is a veritable banquet for the ears! Don’t look at the icon picture. It’s deceiving. If this lot were hanging around on a street corner, you’d probably call the authorities! This is truly wonderful. Angel’s voices dressed ‘Street-Cred’. I hope Billy is proud of you!

  • This is a stunning performance of this wondeful song, without doubt the best I've ever heard. You guys are brilliant, I'm looking forward to hearing more of your stuff. Thank you.

  • wow, really great.

  • tight harmonies!! awesome!! my favorite performance of this classic piece! BRAVO!!

  • You guys did justice to the arrangement. Very nice blending and your phrasing is excellent. You guys 'get it.' Very enjoyable! -this from a director/singer.

  • Check out the Kings Singers version

  • Mmm, I love that version as well-- gorgeous.

  • This is perfect! Honestly, the balance is smooth and transitions are timed perfectly. The blending is excellent!

    I usually hear choirs perform this song, and they always lack balance--one part sounds louder than the other.

    Good job!

  • i really like it! one of the few recordings of the song that ive on youtube, that sounds great

  • anyone knows the arranger? is is the king's singer's version or kirby shaw or ...?

  • Absolutely beautiful.

  • Great, our a cappella group is doing this, too. And you guys are meshing and blending well.

  • love it...can i have a copy of the piece?

  • so I was in chorus today... and he played this :) like you guys! I know for a fact cuz no one else blends as well as you and he said that it was like a community choir kind of thing. He also had us guess like your ages and stuff by just listening. omg I'm so glad I found this!! I just put it on my ipod :) keep singing. You're all amazing. I subbed btw

  • Fantastic, amazing!!! Very very very well done!!! I came to know this song because it's included in the wonderful movie "Save me". I just LOVE this arrangement!!! Guys, you're great!!! Congratulations from Napoli... Italy :-)

  • I love the harmonic structures of this arrangement!! Well done. Love the blend!!!

  • I agree, perfect balance and blending. You guys are great! Very very nice.

  • THANK YOU.

    I love this, best I've heard on youtube of this version of the song, and I have to learn it.

    Only our group is doing mixed up haha, the sopranos (me) are doing the tenor line and vice versa, but it's great either way!

  • LUTHER!!

    Best college ever, as I watch this in my Brandt dorm room :)

  • wow, thats amazing, I did not expect to hear that sound come out of those people. te blending was great. good job

  • Wow. I finally found the perfect version of this song after searching YouTube all morning. Beautiful.

  • I find your sound to be breathtaking. Billy Joel is a wonderful entertainer and writer; but you just made this song to be the best I've ever heard. Such wonderful talent and such passion in your performance. Not sure what you'll do after graduation, but keep singing regardless.

  • This is so beautiful! I would buy your CD! haha :)

  • This is seriously amazing. I've been trying to find a good acapella version of this song forever. Yours is the best on youtube!

  • You guys are so great! Thanks again for sharing your talent with us!

  • beautiful :] <3

  • You guys are absolutelyamazing. You are all so talented, and it's rare to see a group like this. It's really a nice change.

    Hope you guys stay tight and keep this up.

    God Bless,

    ~Bailey~
