I sang the TTBB version of this in 1995 at Sing Around Nebraska Convention. The tempo here seems a bit fast, but it was fun to listen to it. Sherri Porterfield is amazing!
were singing this right now for our high school concert and we didnt have to wear those wierd dress things we have to wear black pants an da white shirt (very kanelandy!!!!) and personally i think this song is wierd i mean a geese???? wth????
we r singing it now. our school unform is just black pants and a blue shirt dat says vikings on it. we don't have 2 wear those fukin ugly dresses!! lol
Love the poem and therefore the song. Lovely performers, but, good grief, how could the conductor send them out dressed so formally while she herself looks like--to put it mildly--something else!!
We're singing that this year in Select Choir. I absolutely love the song. It's sad and happy at the same time and my music teacher totally agreed. You guys did a beautiful job.
No offense, but I am in choir and im sing this song for a competiton. And Yall need to owrkk on yalls vowels. Like on the word wild, you need to say w(ah)-ld. Tall vowels. Dont sing 'i' and also say ee-t instead of it...it will sound better....
You do know that this performance was over two years ago? The people in this choir have long left and moved on to other things. While I appreciate the constructive criticism and advice, please do note that this video is old and we've already been told what we did right and what we could improve on by our director.
This doesn't apply to just you but to all those who critique this performance. Such criticism, while not unjustified, matters little now.
Lovely song, beautifully done. My daughter's middle school choir is singing it. The choir is good, but like most middle school choirs, they are short of baritones and basses.
Kids stop fighting over tempo and who sings it better, it's a lovely song and different teachers will have different tempi.
we sang this my sophomore year, but it was alot faster! but they did a great job if you like this than go to altus high school womens choir sing 'sing gloria and something told the wild geese
no thats the natural spee. the crap that u have heard that is slow is messed up. my choir sang this and won FIRST PLACE in a huge contest and it was like this exact speed.
I think this is pretty good.... we're singing this in my choir as well... I personally think the piece sounds better when it's played more slowly. It was hard (for me) to catch the emotion of the song because it went so fast. Also I think the choir sounded a little young, or maybe that was the sound they were going for, I don't know, but the diction sounded a little overdone to me, and mouths I saw were barely even open.
The way we sang it was much slower and kinda in a different key, but I knew that was wrong, but that's not what the shee music they gave us said. It kinda bothered me.
okayy simon cowell. stop trying to judge people. you couldn't sound like them in a million years! they did great. the song is supposed to be that fast. diction was PERRRRFECTTT
well im happy for you that you won that, and i wasn't trying to be rude. and can you not call me a dumbass? because i dont even know you. and it was just my opinion that i thought the song should be slower, that's it.
ya we r singing this for the black history month exchange concert at my school. we r only a middle school with few people in chorus but we sound GOOD! (lol im a 1st soprano) XD u sound great to but i agree ure kinda fast
We sang this for our winter concert, now we're singing it for our competition & spring concert. You guys sang it faster than us..and a little different, but still good. Singing it now..lol. We only have 2 guys in out choir so we couldn't have a guy part. :)
We are singing this in 7th Grade ight now... I like this song it is a pretty song... Ours is diffent though for the Beat in the Sopranoes. Still a beautiful song.
oh my gosh, we're singing this in chorus, and our chorus teacher is making us sing it a lot slower. i'm not used to hearing it sung with a faster tempo.
we sang this in middle school... everyone in the chorus made fun of it cuz the teacher made a big deal out of the "wild breast stiffened" part. she spend the entire period screaming ITS A TYPO EHMAHGAWSH SO A TYPO! its beast! i swear!
Yeah, it's a really easy song. I think we learned it in about a week! This song was mostly a "filler" song in our concert but it's really pretty and is one of my favorites out of the songs we did in choir.
that song is uber sad, idk y tho, we are singing that in choir, GO GATO! hehehe, if u no what that means, like message me asap, cuz i know u! but its scary 2
I went to the disneyland annua quartet compotition. My teacher entered my group and we sang this song a capella along with boogie-woogie-bugle-boy and we won 2nd place in nationals. My twin is also part of the group. To hear us sing (srry we didn't have a recording of the disney concert) check out my profile.
I sang this for choir, too. But that was back in 2005. That class was fun. I have stage fright - get all shaky - but it never bothered me to sing with the choir.
Im singing this with my eighth grade choir clas.......and we sound absolutly horrible compared to you guys!!!! This is amazing........great job!!!!!

That was many years ago... like late 90's. O_o
My teacher seemed to like using the same songs over and over every year, so by my 8th grade year I was really sick of this song. =P
But now listening to it again, I find myself actually liking it. =)
