[arobinson392488]

JACKIE!!! WE LOVE YOU!!! lol

[erinn648]

Why is she so amazing!

[hurdlestar08]

jackie!!!! i love your voice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[llcooljay1887]

oh come on rian you know what showchoircritic means.... and personally i agree. but its weird doing street tap with show choir costumes, so i understand why they did it.

[RCool45]

i've gotten to see this twice live and its still gives me chills.

the Peace song is my favorite and at State i was dancing in my seat.

not gonna lie, for 2 years ive seen them perform and i can't wait for next year.

[Eliz279009]

I drive by NC everyday and I always see your big banners boasting about your show choirs. No wonder.

[ShowChoirCritic82]

i hate not matching costumes but the soloist made it up.

everyone blended and facials were amazing.

im usually on here baching up showchoirs butyou guys are amazing. congratz. your on my faves.

[NoelRobey]

I cant wait till i get to North Centeral so i can be in CounterPoints!! (Westlane Middle School Student speaking!) u guys rock!!!

[beastlyboy1995]

yeah go westlane

[soccerjockey08150]

@NoelRobey I know what you mean. I'm at Northview.

[lanay072891]

I SEE U CP!!! (central sounder speaking lol)

[rockinrobin93]

i understand what you're coming from. I know the song, in context, is about discrimination and trying to rise from it. From my point of view, though, it could be about more than just racism and discrimination when it is taken out of context, as it is here. I guarantee that most people in there have experienced struggle at some point in their lives; I know the director would not just choose a song because she likes it, but also because the kids relate to it and can portray the right emotion.

[deelove1978]

why did they do this song? why!! most of those kids have no idea what that song is about and even if they did they still have no point of reference to relate.

[rockinrobin93]

most of these kids? what are you referring to when you say that? how do you know what people go through in their lives? if you mean to say that the individuals in counterpoints don't know struggle, then you are seriously, SERIOUSLY mistaken.

[deelove1978]

I said MOST not all. I'm sure there are a few they kind of have an idea, but the majority of the kids in that choir will NEVER understand what it feels like for an entire society to discriminate against you or hate you because of your race. That's just a fact. I'm sure their director just picked the song bcuz he liked it.

[deelove1978]

I would that the kids obviously have talent. Just an odd choice of song.

[idareyou2move24]

Jackie doing "Please Don't Stop the Music" is my ringtone...

[GeneralAnesthesia]

um, liz fohl sang please don't stop the music in 08, jackie's song that year was Deja Vu

[idareyou2move24]

can i send it to you? its undeniably her- i recorded it live...

[GeneralAnesthesia]

at what? counterpoints hell week last year? I'm in counterpoints, jackie only sang it live maybe twice, CP hell week and some dinner at the indianapolis library for a group of neurosurgeons.

[hollyhockhill]

Phenomenal vocals! This truly shows the depth and talent of this premier group!

[Galinda28]

Thank God they changed the word "been" from ben to bin. That was my only problem with that song for the longest time.

[pianoman012688]

I think i am going to have to post the Original set that they did at Ben Davis.

It's a little embarrassing, because it just DOES NOT look like North Central, But i think it really shows the caliber of this group. For them to turn around a dud of a show like they had at Ben Davis into THIS. is just awesome.

Congrats PC (i have to be honest, like the show more than Burroughs now)

[Tnvol123]

I'm more than okay with losing to them at state.

They're absolutely amazing this year, just like last year, too.

I've still got "on Broadway!" stuck in my head... haha.

[xsenoritacrystal]

HEY, YOU THERE! :]

ahh, cp. i love you guys so much.

everytime I have to watch you guys, you make me love you even more, cause I just feel how amazing you guys are in mah bones.

[barisinger16]

my jaw dropped seeing this(i saw it live at FAME) and the bass sound was amazing

[eaglechic115]
