IU's Straight No Chaser - Superhero

[EmpathyWorks]

Brian Mcknight sings better than all of them together lol.

[dottkov]

This has to be my favorite IU SNC song ever. Tyler is incredible in this!

[baseBALLboy4990]

they are incredible live and in person its totally different then watching it on youtube

[ejcp0321]

Didn't they sing the theme from Mario (the nintendo game) and does anyone know where to find it?

[Tkai08]

Tyler Trepp!! Reppin Urbandale Iowa!!!! Check out Urbandale Studio 2007 Superhero show choir... soo awesome!

[muslmedic]

Never mind. I see, the guys put in an intro that does not appear in the lyrics by McKnight.

[muslmedic]

Does anyone know who actually wrote the lyrics these guys are singing? The opening credits say Brian McKnight, but when I search for them under his name online, McKnight's lyrics are entirely different. Thanks for your help.

[bellaitaliangel06]

wow your voives melt so well its gorgeous!!! wonderful harmonies!!

[TreppVideos]

Yes I am singing with the world renowned SNC. Touring the country. Thanks for all the comments!

[TheRealmsOfGold]

I wonder who voted your comment down -- probably some jealous dick. You guys are really good. My men's chorus just performed the same arrangement of the Christmas Medley! Your famous recording was an inspiration, of course. Well done. One friendly criticism: I've never figured out why you mic each individual singer. It's like the New York Phil back in the '60s. I wouldn't mic at all.

[09deboer]

The into gives me goosebumps!! ooo...

[piano1117]

Awesome performance... though i fail to see why we need 30 seconds of screaming at the beginning... that just bothers me. Lol.

[thetubkins]

Isn't Tyler in the world renowned SNC now? I coulda sworn I saw him in their tour.

[Marlaze7]

yes he is.  Some of the original guys couldnt leave their jobs for the tour so they went to other group members.

[CatOnFire]

The description says that Tyler is the soloist here. So yeah, he's in it.

[allmypetsandnumbers]

fantastic harmony..... ahhhhh if only our choir could sing like them......

[breek1]

i still like purple haze more because of the tempo and soloist

[HoneyTheReal]

are you one of them ?

[kosai19]

Why do members end up leaving?

[midgeton]

they graduate, remember this is a college group.

unfortunately they all leave at some point : /

[jjmo66]

no its just u

[CourtneyEWashington]

Is it just me or does the video speed up at 1:45ish?

[countryboy56798]

No i heard the same jump that you did, it was kinda strange.

[player24242424]

Originals Or Not These Guys Are Still Amazing...I Havent Even Been Able 2 Find This Original Song By Brian McKnight Anywhere...It Sux

[SpicyItaliana]

alright, ANYONE....is there a recording of this ANYWHERE that i can put on my ipod or on my mp3 player?!?!

[dogs72692]

Just convert it from an flv file to an mp3 file, and then ad the saved file to itunes and put it on your ipod.

[wvoirol]

buy their Album that has it on there...think its last call....good luck finding a copy...

[Raissachan]

perfect

[sng4lyf]

What year was the original group?

[mbow08DM]

I think that these guys are amazing, even if they are not the originals. I love SNC so much.

I love this song, I listen to it daily.

Great job.

[diamondintherough11]

i miss the originals...:'(

[singingdawg20]

this is not the original straight no chaser...the original group is waayyy better

[tctransporter]

Of course, but they are still good in my opinion....

[lIlLLinIlI]

You sir(or madam), obviously is a 5-year-old

[Stantzs]

well...they're having fun... sort of

[DRumDRock]

1:47 it gets a little off but no one cares, that be amazing

[skidro892007]

That was actually just the recorded video quality. It skipped through on the low quality recording.

[sherrimp]

I can't believe I never heard of these guys until last night! I am a 51 years old "die hard" Rock & Roll fan... ACDC is my favorite group. BUT I love this music! They are great.

[spitfire521]

It means to take a shot of straight liquor without taking anything after to kill the taste. For example, taking a shot of whiskey without chasing it with a beer.

Hence, Straight no chaser

[rubix0110]

Wat does straight no chaser mean?

[lynchevie]

its a drink order....martini straight(no ice) no chaser(no side order like a shot of whiskey)

i think

[CaitlinKatieCait]

Is there a glitch?

Perhaps its just the technology making you argue ;D

[lolen91]

something special..good!!

[kelly199218]

O_O WOW

[initforthelaughs]

Wow this song is fantastic and especially for occapela.

[FilmStripses]

Wow.

[initforthelaughs]

one of the best songs theyve ever done and couldn't stop listening to it.

[sardoniclysane]

They should re-record this with out the pacing problem at the beginning.

[ImUnicke]

I didn't notice a problem with their pace...

[sardoniclysane]

Are you joking? There's a part in the first verse that is completely messed up because of a passing issue. It's rushed and almost comes appart right at the line "now that you've become my very life" the pacing goes off track and speeds up. I blame the vocal percussionists to be honest.

[boredasever16]

yea, but they kinda make it sound like it's supposed to be there.

[BethH075]

Yeah, I agree, sardoniclysane. That's really the only fault in this recording, excluding the fan's shouts which one usually gets with recordings like this one.

[Stumaster8]

einfach klasse q=)

[slystiff]

If you want to see this amazing group in California, they will be here Sept. 5,6,7. More information at the College of the Sequoias Foundation website.

[jsoto211]

Tey're fantastic...!! absolutely

[LetsGoMets712]

by the way what is this song from?

like who sings it?

[nagaempress]

Its Brian Mcknight's Superhero. Do a searc on here you will find the orig song.

[klivings]

Spiderman 2 soundtrack rocks

[LetsGoMets712]

wow seriously these guys have incredible talent. i need to grab that CD.

AMAZING!!!

[bonamlunem009]

They have a CD?! Could you tell me what it is called so I could get it. I have a thing for superb a cappella music. Anyone know if they made BOCA?

[sokkersweep22]

I showed my senior comp class your "Facebook Stalkin" video and y'all got a wild applause. you guys are amazing

[MusicMaker217]

This is probably one of my most favorite songs performed by Straight No Chaser. The soloist is amazing. Kudos. Any way to get a CD?

[Czessy]

Amazing!

[Merrynda]

Gotta admit - LOVE the 12 Days of Christmas and The Lion Sleeps Tonight! And it looks like so much fun! =) Love singing, love harmonies, love a capella - how much better can you get?!? =D

[sardoniclysane]

There should be more covers/renditions of this song on here. It's a good song.

And SNC do a fantastic job ofc.

[WonderAnJo]

thank u thank u thank no need to clap

[reesespuffs135]

i am almost certain Twh57318 (took time to type #'s cuz i care that much) is on crack cuz this is the most tasteful thing ive ever heard, besides their "12 days" song

[Twh57318]

no my friend i did not mean to put that . it was ment to insult another comment . I really enjoy this song. it is my second favorite song from this group as well.

[akaCharlieG]

That was unbelievable

Totally inspirational as well

[XxWamberxX]

i hope i can come to indiana again soon!! :)

[XxWamberxX]

this was the first song i ever heard u guys sing i was amazed that day lol.

i luv u guys cory,gene(cousin),jason,luke,t­yler,andrew,owin,and holland!! u guys rock and i luv seeing u guys preform!!

[AprilThurman]

You guys are amazing! Best male group I have ever heard!! Keep it up I love the music!

[bethainy]

I think I've heard this song once... and I don't even want to hear the original now. You guys rock.

[rnbfeeling]

AWESOME !!!

[greexican87]

what a great arrangement! and what talent. i think i am inlove...haha

[arewethereyet]

this is wild, I wish I could sing well enough to be in a group like this

[BethanyAngelstar]

wow! You guys are awesome!! :D

[jpeniera]

not only you guys have great voices but you guys are hot

[yogabong]

I think that these guys are awesome! I mean it must take a lot of time and practice to be able to do that!

[kingsLF]

not only is what you said stupid, moronic, and childish (if I was your age, which I'm not, I'd be ashamed of myself) it doesn't even make any sense. Still you have redeemed yourself by not being able to spell. Well done you!!

[boredasever16]

I thought tallsandi was sticking up for them when somebody else called them gay... ? Uh, I guess that was only me.

[tallsandi]

Yes, I was supporting the incredibly talented guys from the asinine ramblings of a talentless weasel. Some people need to learn how to read what is written.

[kjsmithurst]

wow - here's another vote for them to come to Canada, but Vancouver - I would so be there!!

[cogman2306]

I wonder if these guys have ever or will ever come to Canada.....preferable Ontario...for a performance. I would definitely go!

[bukitbesi]

I think this is truly amazing, for all the negative remarks, try doing this yoursleves.

[BIGBen53]

These guys are fantastic and I can't wait until I get a chance to see them live. I think I have favorited every video I have found of them.

[AudioSanctuary]

Pff, you'd have to be pretty immature if you think all these guys are gay. It takes a lot of talent and hard work to pull off a capella like this. I wish I could see these guys in person.

[georgebaggy]

even if we were, these singers would still be awesome

[int3rn3tfr33k]

no....srry, but no

[00takeshi00]

If this was soht for TV then the guys you see on the left and the right would have been cropped out as well.

[00takeshi00]

...besides, there's a white guy off the screen. It's coincidence (not the same as causality).

[kennita728]

That blows in general (and I thought it happened when something was shot wide for movies and shown on TV, not the other way around).

[bellier]

I thought the same thing.

[rmcohen1]

The video was simply shot by having a camera, not watched or controlled by anyone, placed on a tripod at the back of the auditorium. It was originally intended for the group just to use to watch and critique their concert, not for public viewing. Frankly, I feel this video is the poorest quality of all the videos I posted of SNC. Check out some of my other SNC videos, which are better looking and sounding.

[Quiltbugs]

Please keep posting these videos! I don't live anywhere near Indiana, but I sure wouldn't mind seeing these guys in person.

[sk8erchick555]

y does everythin have to racial...the world is not out to get black or white or anypeople. It was a staationary camera...not done on purpose

[Donnchad567]

guys, he was only observing and theorizing; he wasn't the cameraman. and I highly doubt that it was, especially considering that that dude has one of, if not the best voices in the group. listen to their fast-food version of stand by me and you'll hear what I mean.

[shelichan]

Yeah but these guys are far cuter, and they still can really sing! Timing needs a little bit of work, but other than that... amazing. I would date any one of them in a heartbeat.

[Emmybodykilla]

because of their singing? ...wow.

[kennita728]

Lots of people get dated because of their dancing -- why not? Go with your strengths!

[dsmccall]

Great group but the audio recording on this is not good....for a better experience w/ SNC see them sing "12 Days of Christmas" posted by mikado95. *that* is awesome & the audio plus video recording is quite a bit better.

[BlueKidJ]

This makes me feel weird.

[225Bunny]

I never heard this song before seeing this and then listened to Brian McNight's version on iTunes. I actually like this one MUCH better. These guys are amazing.

[angelzx]

u can hear the original from mikado95

[no1touch]

it sounds cool but i miss the original guys, they were livelier and more entertaining

[t4kne]

This is a different group of singers from the 12 days video.

[cghjny]

you are so right

[LydiaPrescott]

That is because it is a different year, 12 days is 1996 and this one is 2006. It's a collage group like a Choir, so it changes as people graduate or drop out of the group.

The old group (the ones who sang 12 days) sounds much better !! These ones are okay though!

[t4kne]

Why is mecklera gay?

[tazy1000]

They are great. Who cares the color of thier skin. That has nothing to do with how great they are. Keep us the great work guys.

[sirdaffy]

Probably for the same reason all black groups and singers sound so... black.

[scottish1977]

Because they are white?

[wmscdirector]

As oppose to minority acapella groups? Or do you mean because they sound so good and you are a racist??

[HeedJSU]

ignorance at its finest, mecklera. good job.

[liseeg]

mecklera is ignorance at it's finest thank you i love this band at all years, keep up the good work

[geekhead34]

why do you care? if white people sounded black or visa versa people would thing somethong is wrong or that is just how you lived and grew up with it. if black people sounded so black and looked that way, as they do, would you have a problem with it? it is just how it is!

[HeedJSU]

No matter what mecklera thinks, these guys kick ass.

[geekhead34]

you rule dude

[GemmGemms]

Go Indiana!

[titaniumpen]

it's amazing how NOBODY reads descriptions

[kitten5135]

i think their 12 days was the best

[P1CC0L0D3773]

Totally 12 Days

[teenieleec]

i agree! 12 days was so funny...and sounded so great!

[loosershate]

Are these guys from the University of Arkansas?

[Ladymech62]

It says U of Indiana mate

[margiefrancie]

No such thing as U of Indiana. It's Indiana University. Sorry, I had to...GO HOOSIERS!

[Ladymech62]

:D It's University of Oklahoma and not Oklahoma University here . . . go Sooners! Hubby is a Hoosier . . .

[ninaballerina13]

you guys have major skills.

[kajalla]

These guys are good, but they're nothing like the 1996 Straight No Chaser group, those guys were like nothing you've ever heard.

[RolfSchwall]

Great - will you tour in Austalia ??

Keepon going !!

[DeadAlredy]

Awsome!

[icefusion22]

i place you above the yale wiffenpoofs because of your selection.

they're so classical and snore

you guys ahve a beat.

awesome.

[jdr47]

the yale whiffs are legacy though. legacy is an important component of the music business.

[bbierlein]

I'd recommend checking out this year's whiffs. They're much more dynamic than in the past.

[jdr47]

yeah i'd agree. haha i'm a yalie and i have a couple friends in the current Whiffs so i'm obviously biased in my opinion.

[leonad50]

You guys are fantastic! Do you do shows, or are you still together as a group?

[snowboarderben1]

much love from sheffield uk

[itsamistry]

Im a fan, and im in england!

[babyjen29]

Totally legend!

[jill0076]

Im A FAN!!

[sircamelbutt]

alright, this was pretty poor.

[Twh57318]

no taste.

[Twh57318]

oops mistake should not have been put there

[Larsonist525600]

I have become a fan...and I don't live even remotely close to Indiana (unless you guys are from IUP, Indiana University of Pennsylvania...in which case I live remotely close). But anyway, you have a long-distance fan. Be flattered.

[zetoastking]

2. err...well, ohio. but still, i love this stuff.

[molsson8586]

amazing! nice work tyler

[narsaso]

great great great!!!!

[AnointedMinstrel]

wow those guys are awesome! I love guys who sing!!

[jillf811]

Love SNC..Go Drew and Corey!

[keelinluvskiwi]

Hi Jill! and good job!
