Rent Medley - High School

[thesingingsweetie17]

It looks like I'm actually watching the show :3 GREAT JOB! :) We're doing this for choir and I wish we would have more people moving and expressing.

[KiMmYgUrl502]

Gahh this is amazing.

[MusicalRobijn]

It's not one song glory, it's last years rent ;)

[raze045]

this is amazing. VERY well done!

[catacheeta]

Excellent job! My choir is performing this tomorrow night and I am so nervous!

[ASDovo]

wow... The choral arrangement and harmonies for One Song Glory were amazing!

[Broadway4life219]

wow thats so good!

[PeaceBabee3]

This is extremely well done! Unbelievable for a high school to pull of! Amazing!

[dontez1977]

This is really a great performance. You can't tell it's a highschool performance. The soloist of One Song Glory put his foot in this song. I enjoyed it better than the performance I saw on Broadway

[crouch999]

lol mine won't do it because of our school criteria

stupid school for being so strict. He loves RENT though :D

Though he said I don't have a life cuz i've never seen west-side story, but i know what its about mainly. ^^;

[evenvy1]

i think that it could use alot more energy but its good

[NathanNarcissist92]

that is absolutely amazin, i lpractically begged my teacher to let us do rent but she wouldn't cos she hadn't seen it :| mint times

[velocity330]

are you kidding? she wouldnt let you because she hasnt seen it? you need a new teacher.

[NathanNarcissist92]

I know right! aha, i dont do performin arts anymore tho cos am in college :( i lent that teacher me dvd tho but she'd already decided to do grease which i hate :(

[Davylein]

I just love this arrangement of 'one song glory'.. we also sang this.. goosebumps!!!

[backpacker905]

One Song Glory was incredible! goosebumps

[thafeeneedstohush]

God, I wish our Concert Choir was this big!

Great job!

[megzter23]

I loved the soloist for "One song glory" He was amazing!

[JENNNUH]

put the rest on PLEASE. this is amazing

[omgitstiffy]

loved loved loved one song glory so so much!!!!

[elakuza]

Great Job!!! Bravo!!!

[PhaseAndDaze]

The boy who started One Song Glory sounded just like Roger. He did great. So did the rest of the choir.

[RentBeatle]

NICE

[romeodude89]

WOW!!!! this is a very powerful version of one song glory really hit my heart, great vocals guys and the harmonies were spot on

[MweeperDan23]

My High School did Rent in the fall and they were praised for their performance! Great Job with your High School Choir!

[melodiesofmemories]

this is pretty sweet.

[ShibuBaka]

Amazing.

[KHSMB11]

Very Amazing! I like how this choir performs and puts on a show performance for the audience! Totally cool!

[RandomReviewer01]

Support the performance of "Rent: School Edition" in schools!!!

-No day but today!

[omgitstiffy]

oh definately! my community theater did it and we had a blast!

[broadwayxdreams]

soooo good

[T14309]

chills!..

[CrazyCerealMurderer4]

omg this was amazing you guys did so good!!!

[Clarabelle22]

omg my school should do this!!!!

[YouCANTsing1234]

pretty good but pretty mess at the same time.

[caelin1994]

The guy at 1:20 is hot.

(In the blue jackett.)

[sillybrunette2]

this is awesome!! haha my school is doing that medley! its only with 15 of us seniors :] haha its cool.

[Toothpicklvr]

Sahit that's a lot of singers

[MajestikMoose14]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!

[atomicradios]

oh man, i wish my choir would do something cool like this.

[jangie9900]

I was in show choir...this performance was average, but entertaining.

[windspace]

Stick to the conventional choir music

[mrdoc08]

I was just in the Rent production in Hawaii and we just had our last show. Makes me glad that even that it ended here more people are doing it. KEEP SINGING!!!

[lexiixinxwonderland]

OMFG I LOVE THIS.

i really want my school to do something like this...x

[caelin1994]

Omg.

I wish my school would do this too!

[2Good4Nothing]

Damn. Wish my school was as cool as yours.

[Jenny0Tastic]

Yay Rent! I wish my choir did stuff like this. But noooo we have to do fancy, spiritual stuff. =/ You guys are lucky and it sounded really good for a high school choir.

Btw, I could hear the altos really well. ALTO PRIIIIDE!!!

[wildwoodxflower]

Cool!

Your choreography was very interesting to watch.

Check out my videos - my high school did the same medley!

:)

[musicfreak1014]

maybe a lil slow but its still really good

[woof3x]

fabulous performance for high schoolers! who's the poster, is/was he a member? he must be a lil' glittery, i'm sure.

[musicalRENT]

one song glory if they sing together is awesome!

[sannamaartensson]

wow you guys have huuuuge choirs in america! we were like 20 people in my high school!

[LeSpAuL3194]

20 people total?

[sannamaartensson]

no in my choir there was 20 people - in the school it was like 400

[LeSpAuL3194]

geez thats still small

in my high school theres like 3200-3300 maybe even 3500 kids

[LushedMonkey]

I am SO jealous! I did a medley like this in highschool, but it was nothing like this. I was in the top choir, but we we didn't have a show choir at my school. The most wae got to do was step and clap. I was SO excited that I got the solo for for ONE SONG GLORY! Oh how I miss those days! You guys did a great job with this! We would have never been able to pull this off, though, we only had 18 people in our top choir. Where are you guys from?

[lilianburbuja]

good singerz!

[soccerbabe3357]

i thought they were good actors, terrible singers

[pardizzle]

wow a full choir that can act?!?!? NICELY DONE!!!!

[bigthinkers]

hah thaaaanks!

[pancakesAT10]

REALLY AMAZING. one song glory was chilling, i've never heard an arrangement quite like that! thanks for sharing!

[JulianneSparrow2]

Kudos for the amazing performance! =)

[jlacus]

DAMNNNNN! Thats all i have to say. Crazy ass choreography. Hats off to that theater culb

[Clubdancer14]

I AGREE!!!!

[jakewr1996]

amazing.

[kalebroo]

very very impressive!! must of taken tons of hard work but tons of fun too!!

[peopleneedmelikeair]

The little crescendo at 3:30 just made my day. Favorite moment ever. Congrats.

[cc004]

Wow.. That was better than I expected! I'm a huge RENThead, so I was really blown away! When that guy started singing One Song Glory I thought it was too slow. But when everybody else started in, it was good! One of the best High School Choirs I've heard!

[bigthinkers]

thanks! appreciate it.

[cc004]

Hey, no problem! You should be proud! lol.

[xxSkitsyfreakxx]

Wow... thanks was... amazing...

thats really good for a high school.

dont worry about the bad comments..

imma major RENT fan and it was awsum :]

[MirandaRandi55223]

VERY VERY Well done!

[mazaindafale]

That was bloody good!

tight harmonies....

I'm really impessed with the males

[bigthinkers]

haha thanks. we worked hard on it!

[RawrItsRochel]

WOW!

[USAngelbaby1226]

too many ppl

ruins it

[mcrloveandhate92]

random guy with ipod earphones....i dont think ipods were out when rent started...lmao

[lauxianlady405]

I was a part of this too. He wore those because we tried to give it somewhat of a present day feel, but we asked him about why he wore them too, lol.

[mcrloveandhate92]

its just..its set in like...1994 lol, they were lucky to have a walkman hahaha

[madonnawhore]

Rent was set in the late 80's.

[INDIANFIELD54]

OMG this is amazing!! my concert choirs doing this medley this year..i wish we could move around like you guys do but, we have to stand in dresses and tuxes and do the "choir shuffle" on the risers...overall great job!!

[mcrloveandhate92]

hahaha choir shuffle

[INDIANFIELD54]

yea it sucks...haha

[thenextbellaswan]

aww... that was really good!

i'm hoping we'll do that one year for our musical, but i don't think our director's too crazy about it... lol.

[Razis24]

did your school actually do rent?

[lauxianlady405]

No...we actually did "Into the Woods" that year, but we had such a blast with this. ^_^

[caboosepwnsu]

incredible

[jjjjjjjjj123123123]

they look like zombies

[listen2daBLONDE]

melody needs to be stronger!!

[listen2daBLONDE]

i mean the sopranos or the melody holders need 2 be stronger.

[sirdennisgalahad]

stagings a bit everywhere but I can not fault the impeccable singing

[tarynhuyer]

what high school is this?

[wannasinktothebottom]

3:59 to 4:05 ist REALLY adorable!! well done :)

[starrynight012]

I so wish my school would do what your school did...  Loved the video!

[peopleneedmelikeair]

that was awesome. best part was the crescendo at 3:31. flawless.

[marlohp3]

whoa, were you all really singing up there? there weren't any recordings?? that was INCREDIBLE! There were how many of you up there, & the harmonies were PERFECT! Amazing, amazing job! Did you all have headmics? & were those the only songs you did? Very awesome job! ^_^

[hihi909]

so awesome!!!!!!!!!!!<3 this is too scary for my high school to do!

[Rikkchen]

I think you did a really good job. The guy in the blue jacket will be a really good singer in a couple of years. He has a lot of raw potential! Very nice work guys!

[Nate259]

This looks like a weak attempt a Rent. Otherwise a group of people on stage singing songs from Rent running around with what looks like little direction calling it a medley for the fact that they can't actually do Rent. With randomly interjected chorus parts which seems more like everyone just wanted to sing that part, rather than making it a deeper production. However those nifty light changes...yeah, necessary?

[Pickledduckfeet]

It ended and I was like, Dude! I wanna see more!

lol, I loved it!

[LushedMonkey]

Wow, that was REALLY good! Made me want to cry when the guy sang for the solo for one song glory. That was my Solo when I did it in choir. But we did RENT, One Song Glory, Without You, Will I?, Seasons of Love, and Finale B. We also did the full version of Seasons of Love at Graduation.... that was a lot harder to do!

[peterze1018]

the guy at 1:53...ya

[BroadwayFreakazoid]

wow. u guys ROCKED!!! my drama class had to sing seasons of love and we sucked...i'm very jealous

[grassyfield]

OMG MOST AMAZING RENT MEDLEY ON YOUTUBE!!!!!!!!!!!!(hense the all caps)

[showtunesfever92]

whoaa. you guys are awesome.

the harmonies are great!

[xxShakerx]

fantastic..!!!

[Itsnotfair]

wow your school is amazing, you're so lucky!!

[BunnyHeadHunter]

You guys and gals rocked! I'm totally jealous, I wish my high school did stuff like that when I was there!

[paigekins21]

that was awesome... great job. you guys have a lot of talent at your school.

[forgetregret12]

This is so cool. What more can you say about it. Absolutely fantastic. Did you guys do the whole play at your school?

[MikEntertainment]

This is so absoutely fantastic.

[jad9321]

Actually. I enjoyed watching that, Usually when I watch a schools performance I am disappointed that I wasted time. I love it. Very well done. I lobe One Song Glory.

[rentlover112305]

i wish my school did something like this it rocks

[PyrotechnicsFan]

Very Well Done.

Many other full choirs that I reviewed are very dry and lack performance aspects, yours does not, although there are points that I would like to focus on, such as the seperation of the groups of singers. If you did attempt to collaborate the singers together in their groups, SATB, it would much better.

Also, during Glory, I would suggest using the male parts of the choir during the full piece, my choir do it and it sounds very very good.

Hope that helps!

[JudoCreature]

Wow. You guys are amazing. xD Our Concert Choir sucks. Nobody can sing on key. Vochal Ensemble is amazing, though. But... wow. That was really good. I loved the motion and acting. >> Our school just has a bunch of bleachers that they stand on and sing. *eyeroll* Edsel Failz~ =D --Judo

[tiamat1990]

That definitely was the best version of One Song Glory.

[lilprincess1129]

all a can say is wow..........

[sassari79]

that's brilliant!!! i loved the 'rent' performance, then this breath-taking rendition of 'one song glory' came and... i'm stunned!!! bravo!

[clrb15]

Great job everyone! Love that there was a lot of ppl...Worked for the number "Rent". "One Song Glory" I agree was kinda slow but it was a group singing, if it was faster I think everyone would not be in synch. Would have loved to have seen all of you do "One" from A Chorus Line...There was more than enough ppl to do that number...Otherwise great job.

[DeLuxie9]

AWESOME job, especially on the first song. The second was a little slower than it originally was. but that was great!

[CheddarCutie66]

Were you in it???

[PrinceJwroyceWalton]

WOOOAAHHH! I cant wait till my school does something like that. You guys rock!

[exorcism1121]

You guys did really good. I hope you all can do it again.

[rentluver07]

Wow, that was amazing. How many people do you have in your school? We have less than 50 people in both Girls' Glee and Concert Choir and we don't have a show choir anymore. I wish we could do something like that, that would be amazing.

[rainbowbrite24]

Very good. You all sound amazing. However, One Song Glory was a bit too slow.

[Kiddo11467]

this is REALLY amazing. idk if its just me, but im having a bit of a hard time hearing the sopranos. but it still sounds AMAZING. my school is performing this medley tonight. we're not a show choir, so its not as cool. hahah i wish we were though wow. i want yo moove to your school, you have AMAZING guys in your choir. we have like. 10. and thats it. hahah and only like 5 that are actually REALLY good. i would LOVE to be in somthing this amazing!

[dunceo247]

We have two guys (Me being the good one and the other being the guy who chose choir because he got kicked out of his last class!)

[eyelied]

This was really good. In the beginning I couldn't tell if you guys were using the medley cd to help you guys enhance the sound. But then I saw later on that the guy was singing alone, so I was really surprised. Cuz it sounds like the cd medley. It's really good, good job!

[wickedchaperone333]

this is actually better than I thought it would be! I love the opening number for Rent you guys did! I mean, of course it's not as good as the stage show because you had to skip stuff and of course you're all in high school, but I love when all the chorus comes in during, One Song Glory. didn't like the soloist though. Do you have to get the rights to do this, or what? where did you get the music? oh, and what other songs are in it?!

[buddbuster]

AMAZING!!!!!!

[megamoney10101]

i love it

[Hawkman10016]

where is the rest of it??????

[younglover11]

really amazing job. like perfect!!

better than some other school that did it!

[VisualRedemption]

Good job! Our school did the 20 some minute Rent medley last year for our pops concert. It was awesome, we had glow sticks and all that fun stuff. But again good show!!

[kalebroo]

great job guys!

[kaatse]

omg, I SO wish my school would do something like that!

[lovelovelove42]

amazinggg.

[christanlover4ever]

song is cool

[unfabulous386]

they sound awesome!

but i just have one small question...

what the heck is that red thing on that one

soloist head? lol. reallly good voices tho!!!

[smilelkumeanit26]

the music sounds like its the old Batman tv show theme and not "Rent"

[jeromeathon]

hahahha, this true, i was waiting for "BAM!" "WHAM!" and "OUCH!" graphics to pop up onto the screen

[TheDarkSereneRaven]

This is something my choir would do. =) But out show choir, not just plain choir. Anyway.. awesome. =)

[sk8Jebadia9]

Hey we did this too at our school (in Madison, Wisconsin)

well..our Concert Choir did a medley of Joseph and the amazing technicolor Dreamcoat, but our showchoir did this medley of Rent last year, i did the solo for One Song Glory, we took it faster and we had synchronized swaying though haha

nice job (just like our concert choir, some guys are always in back like "i didnt sign up for concert choir to dance screw this!!) :)

[lavieboheme2007]

loooove harmonies <333

[dolphinofdespair]

Note to self: In case of singing a solo, don't wear a red knitted hat on your head, especially not one with a little ball on top of it !

[Ginathatsme8189]

this is awesome i wish my choir coould do sumthin fantastic like this

[frequentsmiler]

Nice harmony.

[xPiratexForxLifex]

Wow, this is fantastic. It's awesome that you got to actually perform this. I'm part of a concert choir in my highschool, and if I even suggested doing anything in this manner, my teacher would diie. Great job =]

[actingprincess3]

i really like it!

[daniellaleeNJ]

one of the better ones I have seen ... These kids def have great voices and even better stage presence

[egyptiansushi]

this is very involved for just a chorus performance

ours and any I've seen, we/they just stand up in robes and be still and have no lighting or anything.

[AAdorar]

The guy who sings "One Song Glory" sounded to much like Adam Pascal. Don't get me wrong, I really like Adam Pascal, it's just, this soloist didn't make the song his at all. It's like he just mimiced the manerisms from the movie...a poor choice when looked through the perspective of a singer/actor

[DRAMADORK620]

What is with those outfits!! The singing was alright, but some of boys seemed like they wernt taking it seriously. Yur school should have just chosen 20 of the best singers, rather than use all those kids, it seemed to cluttered and crazy to be good, sorry if i'm being too honest and cruel, but it will help you get a tough skin and evolve

[bigthinkers]

1.) everyone had to get their own clothes... it was a mish-mash of whatever ppl had

2.) it was a choir concert, not a stage performance. our whole choir did it

[antiandrewx]

terrible.

this is why high schools should not do RENT.

WTF was Roger wearing? The kid had a semi good voice, but no where near the talent required for RENT.

[bigthinkers]

once again... choir concert. not stage peformance lol. you people need to get lives outside of you tube.

[BlondieGurl]

You got anymore? I love listening to this!!

[RabidIceWeasel]

DAMN good. 0___o

[matty11511]

Whoa u guys sound awesome, the harmonies were beautiful, i dont know wat highschool ur from but im jealous haha :P ...that actually was probly the best ive ever heard either of those songs sound...no lie... good job! :)

[LillSammyGirl]

i remember seeing this, u guys did good

[ximsgirl]

wasn't an insult just an observaiton lol. The whole thing is awsome though.

much luv,

xim's girl

[ximsgirl]

the guy who plays Roger looks like a jock!!!!

[bigthinkers]

um... i'm sorry? lol idk haha.

[kpas]

That was one of the best high school performances I've seen! I would really love to see more!

[Majik1387]

Overall it was good but One Song Glory was way too slow.

[loveiswhatido]

i wish my school would do something like that...

[Turbo9987]

wow that's awesome!

[msfurious]

Awesome performance!

[mj4life]

awesome performance!

[pruelover12]

that was awesome!!!!!!!!!

[qwertyuiop106]

that was sooo cool.

huge ass preformance.

kudooaaass
