Goosebumps. I've had the original version sounding in my mind for decades and this new version is a tremendous update. it keeps the original dirve and groove while adding the right amount of electronics and current typical audio enhancements.
@HugoMadizon Well it's very basic though, based on I-IV and (VI-)II-V-I chord progressions, which are very common in popular music or jazz. For example, Mexican spices section chords are Am7-Dm7-Gsus-G9-Cmaj7-Bm7b5-E7b9 (A7/C# when going to the chorus). VI-II-V-I (Am-Dm-G-C) and II-V-I (Bm-E-Am), simple as pie.
I never heard this song till 2 weeks ago a group from San Francisco came to sing for us and they were singing this song i just love it from their on! :)! "Chile con carne" ;)
OK I love this song and what you do to it blows me away! I need to come back 3-4 times per year to listen to it (and I'm not even a real a capella buff either!). However, listening to it also makes me angry; what are we mortals supposed to aspire to as far as singing is concerned after you flaunt this at us, huh? Choke on your damn chili con carne! HA! Just kidding (sort of).... but OK seriously, you guys nailed it with this one. Respec', Kim from Finland
@HoggyWartyHogwarts it is a hard song, it has a crapload of clashes, the parts don't mess together well, and key changes. If you sang it in a girlband i'm guessing you did not have basses and maybe not tenors unless you had some manly girls, soooo you were missing out on major parts of the song. Also did you sing it withOUT the backup music, because that way you all have to stay in key with one another by ear when your parts sound different and you do key changes.
My brother hated this song so much that he stole all the copies from our choir director's office and hid them. To this day, 6-8 years later, we have never found them. The director has also never attempted to do this song at school while my other brothers were there.
This is not the original. It is a new version, though by The Real Group themselves. And I don't know if they have remixed it, I think they did, and if so, they did it themselves, with nothing else than their voices (and maybe other part of their bodies).
blooooming heck!!!! This is ssoooo diffficult if ur trying to pick up the lines as i am! lols but its soo good! im doing altho part and were donig it with caltalina for music mid somerset festival :) xxxx.
This is a remix of The Real Group. Someone layered the song over a (pretty funky) beat and cut the voices up a little. There's a true version of the song on youtube, just look in related links.
i'm doing this song right now with my vocal jazz ensemble (i'm on the mezzo part)-- two practices and we've nailed it. i'm really not sure why lots of high school ensembles find this song so hard.... it's about being in the groove and recognizing what your role in the song is. great song, simpler than it apparently seems.
@gingerbreadman2012 Have you ever seen the acatual choral arrangement of this song?! This version is sooooooo watered down. You don't hear all of the tight harmonies that come with doing this with a 6-part chorus. I suggest you try singing this before you make that statement. Not to mention the fact this is recorded. Try it live acappella...trust me, I've been there.
my high school choir is learning this, when the varsity choir did this song last year i totally fell in LOVE with it. but its a really hard song to learn! this has already helped me with my part a lot thanks!
the womens group at my school sang this for chorus adn it was awesome i seen these guys live adn i was like omg i know that song and i was singing along
we have to sing this song too for our spring concert. i liked the song in the beginning...now...not so much. i like the real group version better compared to our SSA version
this is quite hard to sing, heard this song on saturday in a concert. a couple of my friends sung this song in the opening ceremony. it was really cool. and it was a so called women's group. :)
@andrenord I'm sure it sounded great! I keep seeing all these comments about women's groups doing this song, and I wonder...how would it sound without the bass?
but... *sniff* if you forget the mexican spices, you won't get the flavor of sunshine!!!!!
lol
I dunno... I kinda like this song, and its really funny that you mention it, because one of the choirs at our school is actually singing it... I wonder if they'll do good on it...
don't they use any instrument? I think they used some percussion.. and I think they overlapped their voices, because at the end, there are more than 2 feminine voices at the same time.. I'm just curious.. what do you think?
i think i wasted about 75 seconds of my life just now...
