I LOVE how the guy on the right has perfect pitch! I have it too; I liked how they didnt need a pitch pipe and he just hummed that D at the beginning :P having it's a curse sometimes though, because I can hear when stuff is transposed and it bugs the shit out me. We're doing this song for chorus and its transposed to D like this choir is. I just want to know why the arranger didn't keep it in Eb. Well, good singing, anyway!
Night Shadows( my group) is doin this in two weeks, check us out we already have 2 vids up. Ticonderoga McDonalds Girl, and Ticonderoga Sweet Caroline.
I find this arrangement great, even better than the original, Billy Joel's voice being a little too high. And it's particularly the low voice of the lead singer that somehow touches me deep down ;-) As for the name, the Testosterones, I really hope nomen est omen :D Great job anyway, hope we'll hear more of them.
indeed. They can't keep up with the emotions because it's tooo damn fastt... It's sung to shallow because of the speed. A lot is offnote because of this too. Damn, sing it again! SLOWER!
only a few people can sing that high and if they slowed it down they couldnt hit the notes and billy joel couldnt really sing it he said in a inteview look it up
It's pretty good. It's slightly fast. I used to do this with my quartet all the time, and it's so fun that once you start and it sounds so good, you just want to get faster and faster! The soloist was decent. The bass 2 was really solid.
As ineloquent as gingerbin may have been... the soloist should not be singing this. Maybe he is nervous, but it sounds out of his range. I think the arrangement may have something to do with it too.
It's a rendition, not a cover. It's faster than the original song, but I reiterate, rendition, not cover. If you can't give constructive criticism, please keep it to yourself. Can you sing better or are you one of those people who criticize others with talents you don't have?
who are you to question my rights concerning that of commenting on this website? And why did you say that i can't give constructive criticism when two of three parts of my previous comment were actually construstive criticism?
They wont get better if they don't know what they did wrong.
One thing though, i take back what i said about the singer, he does not suck but he isn't the greatest.
I do believe that i can sing quite well... especially to this song.
There's a reason every decent quartet (or small vocal harmony) sings around a single microphone. Try it, you might find something called balance as well as getting rid of a whole heap of crappy interference noise and breathing sounds. Looks much better too.
chill bro, first off, if it ain't officially copyrighted, you've got nothing. and second, they're just people getting together to sing. planning on raining on any more parades?
AWESOME SINGERS!! but they kinda missed the style. I know nasal singing is bad, but it's kinda better in some cases as in Pop music. I hate most Pop music because of that but this had too much professional sound(i.e. operotic or choral sound) when it supposed to just be a man that's in love. just my 2 cents. (sorry more like 25 cents) It was very very good though.
i think this the best version i have seen on youtube! great sound and i'm glad all 5 of you had mics it makes a big difference. you should post more videos.
wow this version is so wonderful! i've sent it to lots of my friends 'cause we all love the song and this version is so cool. the lead in particular does a really nice job. keep up the good work fellas!
