[Brigiecoco]

Beauuuuutiful!

[imagineers0]

The is by far the best performance. The meaning of the song is great.

[imagineers0]

Clone the teacher, then send 10 grand toward a studio.

[m000nchild]

Anyone who knows me knows that I can hardly stand "child performers." This is different. These children feel what they're singing...they can't sit still...the emotion they express through their songs is beautiful. I believe they understand every word and have internalized the songs. God bless the teachers, parents, all the adults who give them what they need to discover this kind of self-expression and talent!

[soccersports373]

Absolutely amazing.

[23skeedoo]

The human voice...the ultimate musical instrument.

[Darthpaul2003]

[PorkyWizard]

im a 6ft 6" Police officer of 25 years and this made me cry!! BEAUTIFUL

[ajikirih]

@PorkyWizard It doesn´t matter what job you have or how big you are.

I work as a cook and it is a hard job too but the those faces...so beautiful. The moment at 2:14 when the girl in the white top starts singing is unbelievable.

A few months ago i went through pretty hard times when a friend sent me the link to this video and i started crying and it was so great.

[ajikirih]

@PorkyWizard Oh, and i forgot that today i realized that there are more videos of those kid and the tears are here again. Fucking hell, Iron Man from Black Sabbath! These kids rock!

[Msbea345]

@PorkyWizard than you for your service

[Maureclaire]
