Personally I like when it repeats the Almond Joy jingle because that one's so rockin' I wanna hear it again. It's like you knew and did it just for me :D
It's YouTube. Stop being so judgmental. Better yet; stop being so mental. I like it. The poster was having some fun, as we are all having fun watching. There's nothing wrong w/ personal expression. Edit to your heart's content,NelnetDude.
Thank you, boneyard & tigerman, for that back & forth, cause now I know some of the history of Rockapella. I agree with Taterzz & kpatrickb: The editing sucks, being that this is one continuous video, not clips.
Awwww! I wanted to hear "Long Cool Woman"! And you cut the video! You evil person, you! (Sings to himself: "OOOOHH A way mom mom weeyayyy - Saturday night I was downtown/Workin' for the FBI . . . etc")
Baloney. It's been public knowledge for a long time that Rockapella intentionally looked for a vocal percussionist, and Sean himself spearheaded the effort. Sean was in the group a whole 5 years before he retired. Do you just make this stuff up? lol
thanks for the footage. for the record, i really don't mind the visual part of the editing, but were you really trying to replay things over and over or was that a lack of attention to detail? this is not a rhetorical question btw. if you still read comments id like to know.
@TiH24aL I dont believe they will ever come to Toronto. barely anyone has heard of these guys here in canada. which is a HUGE shame. They did go to Montreal once though.
Art so powerful, it transcends it's former commercial purpose. Talk about subversion! Anyone knows the original story/movie "Rollerball"? We've got the same happening here! Corpororate's GO HOME !!!!
folgers is probably going to be the staple that rockapella will always be most known about. especially for casual fans like me, whether they like it or not. it's a damn good jingle tho. always brings a smile to my face and makes me crave some coffee. cept then i got to starbucks instead of making me some folgers.
I agree. Shouldn't have messed with an already perfect video. It made no sense fading out and back into the same part of the video. Annoying. But GREAT singing can't screw that up!:)
Rockapella is and has always been dedicated to two things. Music, and entertainment. They make great music every night, and they're one of the most entertaining acts out there. GO SEE THEM LIVE. They really are an amazing group.
Regardless of their personnel, Rockapella sings and performs their butts off night after night. Whether you like the new material or members, great music is great music.
Well, technically none of the original members are left, but Scott Leonard is the only guy left from the days of Carmen Sandiego (unless you count Jeff Thatcher, the beatboxer, who joined in the last season)
here are your original members. 1)Steve Keys 2)Sean Altman 3)Elliot Kerman 4)David Stix David Stix left and was replaced with Charlie Evett then Evett left and was replaced with Barry Carl. then Steve Keys left and was replaced with Scott Leonard Sean Altman left and was replaced with Kevin Wright. Jeff Thatcher joined Barry Carl left and was replaced with George Baldi III and then Elliot left and was replaced with John K Brown. tah dah
Sean left shortly after Jeff joined the group , he did not like the direction the group was taking , adding a drum machine was not what he wanted for his acapella group.
@boneyard009 ...sorry but you are wrong....the original group started in 1986 , Jeff didnt join the group until 1993 , Sean left in 1996 and Kevin Wright took his place. , , the original line up was as follows.
Steve Keyes,Sean Altman,Elliot Kerman and David Stix ,...David left after 1 year and Charlie Evett took his place...Charlie left after 1 year and Barry Carl took his place.....tah dah
@tigerman4 Doubt it, maybe the did start off in 1986, but they alway had the one guy playing drumbs and beats from out of his mouth..Isnt that Jeff???? kind of confused here cause i dont hear the name od Sean anywhere when the are introduce on a video back in 2007 or something.....
@boneyard009 Jeff didnt appear on a CD until 1994 (vocobeat) and he didnt appear on a USA cd until 1995 (primer) but as far as the original group , they were founded in 1986 and Jeff wasnt part of it 3 cds were released in Japan (TO NY , FROM NY and BASH) and Jeff was not on them period , as he wasnt part of the group then , Jeff wasnt even on (Carmen sandiego 1992) (do it acapella 1990) and (Zappas Universe 1991)(modern acapella 1992) , WIKI it if you have to, I own every cd they made sheesh
well there's a difference between singing and getting paid for your creation and writing and singing a song to sell a specific third product. That would be selling out. Still good art can be found in the most unlikely places, as their Folger's diddy proves.
Near the end.. Scott said something about "good to the last drop" before singing Folgers. Too bad "good to the last drop" is the tagline for Maxwell House! WOOPS
