[thierrykamette]

I am off to buy the album !!

[b1ftse37]

What can I say...it's been a very very long time since I considered anybody a 10. e Scala is just as good as a belt fed weapon.

Dave Canadian Capitalist

[sadjaan03]

There performance should just be the 4 electric string instruments, correct? Where is the percussion coming from? Around 2:05

[julie1108]

@sadjaan03 it's to spicen the song up....

[jorGeorge16]

Me caso señores jajaja

[alwayzsure]

I play this song in orchestra on cello. its so easy but the violins say its reaallllyyyyyyy hard. well we are in middle school :P

[HLee0058]

@alwayzsure Cello Part is the biggest joke. Why do the Violins always get the good parts.... Except in the Hall of the mountain king...

[UrWifeMyKid]

bet there good with their hands

[SakuraNana09]

wow :D

[Macerss]

Would of won if each girl had their hair down and wind blowing in it constantly.

[Macerss]

Would be better if they free-styled and threw in Chooka Parker.

[legs0fsteel]

mey i like ond better

[TheSleyths]

Just being the mailman of one of those girls would make my life a bit more happier, yeah, as pathetic as it sounds u.u'

[PRIBB5]

I love this..I think is the most amazing song or whatever you want to call it and yes it does give me goosebumps too

[purnakanagalaus]

'brittian't

[sSST3PH3NSSs]

I WANT to be in an Electric String Quartet!!!! :D

So inspiring!!

[xxihavesecretsxx]

@sSST3PH3NSSs well you'll have to start working hard. im play an electric violin and a lot of other introments, and trust me, you'll seriously have to start working

[sSST3PH3NSSs]

@xxihavesecretsxx true?? is it more difficult that a normal string instument?? thanx for ur input, man :)

[nhoxtjn]

wow....wow...wow....wow...wow.­....

[blangton]

Simon Cowell's remarks show how little he knows - Bond were there long before Escala. They are excellent but an absolute ripoff of Bond

[buergie]

These 4 would also be nice in FHM. ;)

[beyk272301]

I'm 100% BOND.... this girls are nothing compare to Bond.

[theJon97]

thumbs up if u played this song while playing on mw3

[cheergirly0506]

Orch Dorks for life! (:

[PotentiallyHarmful]

I very much enjoyed this new rendition of their audition song! Althought it was predictable when it got to some chords, they surprised me when they mixed it up in the middle. Impressive!

[TrickSki09]

@PotentiallyHarmful have you heard the actual song? They didnt really mix much up at besides adding percussive instruments and fire.

[PotentiallyHarmful]

@TrickSki09 I actually have heard the actual song. I mixed it up a little, and I noticed. *shrug*

[radeemer1]

That was incredible, but why did she have tape on her ear?

[theelementofweird]

i love how serious all their faces are

[alexct3912]

awful lindsey stirling from agt is far better

[jmjoneshistory]

Are they lesbians?

[PureLightHealer]

Wow this is Amazing! Real talent.

[lucas911611]

all i can say for everything "WOW" .. this is been one amazing piece of .. not sure what u call it. on one hand the girls are cute to watch and amazing to listen

[robslifting4life]

That shorter blonde is soooooooooo gorgeous, how is that even possible.... god please answer.

[robchuckrob]

Too funny, they have the same name as the Escala Group, which is famous for fraud and has been called the Enron of Spain. Oh well.

[marroquin2222]

looks like the band and also played Allegretto bond.

[eaglesgogirl]

How does she walk and play cello at the same time?

[1LonePuma]

Absolutely Fantastic, 1!, 2!, 3! and 4! Just Superb!

[Persiian28]

Just incredible..

[KIMORID]

DO BRASIL. MARAVILHOSO. MAGNÍFICO,.

[richarddunnify]

DYNAMIC

[alexct3912]

represent britian i doubt it the only peiple i know are adele, tears of fear or something mad world, kate middleton her narraige wasted a days worth or media.

[Weissman111]

Rip-of of Bond

[stardustpixie99]

the cellist was scaring me in the begging

[joris680]

Did they win?

[MikeyyRFCx]

@joris680 Sadly they didn't. :(

[MrGerrymills]

I just discovered these ladies this weekend. I know, I am a little behind times, but sitting in a little town in Tennessee doesn't exactly keep you current. I am in AWE. Hope to hear more from them.

[456987geraldo]

yes godd good

god performing ok yyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeessss

[PrincessPinay471]

Que Epic running scene *epic runs*

[sneekz07]

What is this damn song. I hear it quite often and have no idea who it is composed by.

[LIGTHINGZERO]

@sneekz07 to answer your question, this song was written a violin quartet called Bond, the lyrics are called allegrato, there are several videos about them, we can say that almost everything he touches scala is a blend of the lyrics of bond, but still played very well but are not up to Bond

[sphericalsushi]

@sneekz07 the classical piece is called Palladio, and is usually played in an orchestra

[stillmattwest]

I think its interesting that they redid their audition song. I wonder if that is why they didn't win. Still, amazingly talented group. Bond may have come first, but they didn't go far. Escala saw the opening and potential and went with it. No problem with that!

[blakeyshouse]

This still gives me goosebumps when i hear it ....  :)

[xxihavesecretsxx]

@blakeyshouse i know right! the tall blond violinist is used to babysit me!

[WashAnDrepeaT]

@stillmattwest

I think that's why they didn't win is because the public sees it as a song they already did, not keeping in mind they reinvented it. They couldn've put a solo or more something into it and I still think the public wouldn't of changed their votes :( definitely desserving

[Mshorselover1]

WHat's the name of the track they first ever performed?

[TheAstro30]

penis

[xxxtrisxxx]

.. Nope, to be honest. I wouldn't vote for them to win. I mean, like amazingly talented at what they do, yes. They're a super cute little group with a great gift.. But I've seen no variety so far. All of their acts are basically exactly the same. In my opinion, they ultimately failed to deliver.

[cdbassswim]

they didnt win....HOW!

[cutiepie212able]

O.M.G its so good i love it!

[kittentailkim]

I do kind of agree with the singers argument cause X factor and american idol takes singing more seriously and people cant coast on the "sympathy vote". Dance crews however don't really have many really popular shows (so you think you can dance is for indivuals) so it's adifficult.

[mammallover707]

the one on the far right is really passionate

[akumanation]

2:06 J LO o.o

[VictorMinchihLee]

Fun, but my god - so out of tune.

[Blacktopper53]

Kiss

[Blacktopper53]

I gotta start watching this show instead of Ancient Aliens.

[aax06]

@Blacktopper53 Srsly?

[amyecurtis67]

AWESOME! These girls are truly classy and really know how to rock it!!! :D

[struth2391]

its amazing how fast time travels, i feel like i was only watching the yesterday on tv

[kingmason100]

@struth2391 DR who?

[scrumpsthepirate]

what a performance.......

[radioface]

im turned on

[issam1506]

I think they were "inspired" by the music of a japanese group (B'z) called Monster : watch?v=e5Q1XrFBsgI

The begining seems to be the same.

[Maejidh]

@issam1506 Actually, they didn't write this song. It's a techno version of "Palladio," which was composed in 1996 by the Welsh composer Karl Jenkins.

[hagbash]

@Maejidh it wae the first song they performed together not wrote

[4444tee4444]

this is actually amazing!

[clivehope1966]

they dhould have won, hands down.............

[TheGhx]

why the final act is the same as the audition act? 

[Xcam101]

@TheGhx you have to redo the first or second act

[demonofa1000hearts]

Like number 500! woo!



[TheJoshuaPat]

They shoud have won I'm fed up of singers,dancers and gymnasts winning we need pure talent and these girls had that. It's a shame they would have went far and I think the queen would have enjoyed it aswell.

[Suigin118]

@TheJoshuaPat They have their own show. American Idol is for singing, So You Think You Can Dance is for dancing, and gymnasts need to just get their own show like the others. I agree with you. I have seen so many people that should have wone on BGT and AGT, and they got beat by the singers.

[k3nt86]

@TheJoshuaPat iono, george sampson's deserving winner. winning helped him get out of the ghetto too. so i think it means more to win for george than for these ladies

[pianino08]

songname? :o

[Tyzz]

@pianino08

Bond - Explosive.

[Cupidemo]

@pianino08 palladio is the song

[MsSharitta]

i kno i love it its so awesome. it was so cool when they leaned, i showed my fam and everyone loved it whooooo hooooo. go girls. :-))))))))) Dmb and Ymb

[IrishPokemonFan]

i agree they should of won!!! :(

[cheddabredda]

the blonde lady at 0:33 made me wana take up the violin and jizz my pants all in 10 seonds

[csrichardson1]

I just don't get how these ladies who have worked their entire lives doing what they do got beat by a little kid who breakdances. They should break the show into two shows, one for kids and one for adults. How can you even compare the two?

[SS501Joanne]

this is art!

[mademan4life]

nuttin but stringz!!!!!!!!!!

[preem7]

C'mon Jeff Lynn,I see an ELO,Escala colaboration

[runeboard99]

tourettes syndrome?

[evilpotato453]

0:13 im sure they did

[thehorsenutshop]

they are so GERGOUS!!! i would defenitly want to see their concert in the future!!!!

[solidsnoop29]

whats the instrument they are using

[TheRachmaninoffFan]

@solidsnoop29 electric violins, viola and cello

[aakburns]

Read the wiki, it explains that they didn't win because they are 'experienced professionals'. It makes no sense, it's not a fair contest show.

[theceres3]

totally agree wif u jezzekebab



[AngelChick619901]

Simon was having trouble not looking at their legs lol

[shadowfaithx]

RYL online music ???

Very similar ....

[Danidurga]

Son buenas desde luego, pero lo que hacen no es nada del otro mundo... pero vamos suena fenomenal.

[wasazimbo3000]

wht song d they play on the violin??? awesome musicians

[alliezz1]

@wasazimbo3000 palladio

[fantaXDaddict]

How could they not win?! I wish I could play the violin :( (have I made a rhyme?)

[BerryCherry0407]

the girl at 1:05 kind of reminds me of Savannah Outen.

[NAKEDSUPERM4N]

I Would bang all the girls in the group!

[Mumsbolognese]

You are my fave band!!!

[SuperMusicfreak17]

they are the reason why im learning violin lol

[BakaRangerTeal]

@SuperMusicfreak17

me too! :D

[deathangel538]

who agrees with me btw that singers shouldn't be allowed on BGT because i bet like 60% is taken up by singers but singers should wait for x factor cos i hate singers i like real talent like the guy who did the magic or the guy who juggled while on a board blindfolded juggling knives on a roll of cardboard or w/e is was

[METALk78]

@deathangel538 i agree with you a 100%

[deathangel538]

@METALk78 thank you :D we should start a petition against it :S

[kamzz95]

@deathangel538 thats a good idea buh its for over 16 or 18 i think for to be in X Factor

[cocokitty55]

@deathangel538 shut up.. singing is talent. you think everything else is talent? then why don't you try out for bgt and watch yourself FAIL!

[recentdan123]

@deathangel538 the reason singers are on britains got talent is because in x factor they don't get to choose the song they want to sing because of stupid simon cowell who thinks it is hilarious to have bon jovi week or 1989's week. However i agree with you that there is to many singers on bgt which is kind of annoying. but if an opera singer came along eg paul potts he would never make it through to the x factor final, i mean could he really sing grease? I don't think so.

[purdycat1996]

@deathangel538 i totally agree but some singers are to young to go on xfactor thats why they go on this

[deathangel538]

@purdycat1996 thats why they should take the age restriction off of xfactor or make an xfactor for younger peoples...

[jaybo197306]

@deathangel538 exacly right. It is goung that way again this year. Some top stuff being knoked out by singers again

[deathangel538]

@jaybo197306 yep i just wish that something was done because i like watching the shows and being entertained not listening to some-one sing

[soccerbush]

@deathangel538 fyi, this isnt singing. just to let ya know

[deathangel538]

@soccerbush ik it isn't thats why i watched the vid, they were good

[shockwave0eternal]

@deathangel538 I agree. But when you start filtering singers out of the competition, do you start filtering out anyone in things like dance competitions, instrument competitions and the like?

[deathangel538]

@shockwave0eternal nah, i think that britains got talent is about talent and tbh personally a talent to me is something that you teach yourself to do and then you practice till you are really good and then it entertains people, singing doesn't entertain me i personally like eye candy like something nice to look at like a good dancer. and with dance competitions as long as they are dancing then its ok so if you can sing whilst dancing then ok

[xxxtrisxxx]

@deathangel538 >i hate singers i like real talent

>Implying singing isn't talent.

[deathangel538]

@xxxtrisxxx yeah agreed, if i really wanna like see singing, ill just go watch x-factor

[deathangel538]

@xxxtrisxxx yeah agreed, if i really wanna like see singing, ill just go watch x-factor

[deathangel538]

escala should have won

[SuperFujiki]

[ricardobraga89]

[em0giny]

BOND !!

[glensloth]

is that who they are these days i heard a song a while ago by the bond girls is this who they are these days ? is escala no Bond?

[leeisagod]

now i dont agree that escala should have won. signature should have won. i think it was a travesty that goerge won

[zemma12]

haha i was laughing at how the girls were taller than those two guys and if u look carefully even if they took off their high heels they'd still be taller- lol But....overall that was a great performance.

[captainkayleeinc]

Does anyone know if they have a CD out or something or if they're on Limewire?

[KaptKan1]

Captainkayleeinc, They have a CD out. It's just called "Escala". Buy it; you'll love it!

[KaptainObviouz]

I'm sure if this doesn't work out they could all be models. :)
