PS22 Chorus "ONE DAY" by Bjork (my FAVORITE version!)

[stevippinuk123]

Wow - very moving. Gives the song such meaning when sung by the kids.

[OneTwoThreeBANG]

Many bjork covers. Awesome! Really, really impressed. A lot of hard work for everyone I can imagine. Quite inspiring really.

[ravynkat]

good stuff! the solo is sweet and your piano playing is very tori-esque here. love it ;)

[Johnny123456789x]

The originals ong was cool, but never one of my Björk favourites; I'm a big Björk fan and some of her songs move me deeply, but this one didn't do it for me.

But THIS... it's so incredible.

[serena54231]

Absolutely beautiful voices, great job Mr. B.

[XoXoSelenaGomez1oXo]

@ 1:03 is that Hayben for the EriAM sisters?

[zee300zee]

They are all so precious. They move me to tears.

[oguti79]

some songs are so perfectly done by the original artist that they cannot be done with the same feeling or are able to evoke the same feeling in the listener when done by anyone else... unless you happen to be this group of kids. amazing job!!

[pjbaldes]

Omg, I cant even type.. this is so wonderfully amazing...

[CubicBaby]

one of the most beautiful things i've ever heard. the version seems to make my heart full of hope yet still a lil' sad..a sort of complex beautiful feeling : )

[ILuvBritLouTayTay]

holy crud. This is amazing <3

this is so awesome, I can go to sleep to it lol.

<3

[avocado2avocado]

You guys are brilliant!!! RESPEKK from Warsaw, Poland. And thank you for doing a cover of one of my favorite Bjork songs. Real talent I see here (as Master Yoda would say)

[silver0alix]

cool arrangement of this song, lovely harmony's

[D0ST03VSKY]

the solo is phenomenal.

[julianamercy]

Mr. Teacher, how about "Season Song" by Blue States

[turningthetabless]

This teacher is an inspiration! The kids are awesome, I love their faces when they sing! They really feel it. And Bjork, omg, what an incredible artist! Perfect song, perfect version!

[Gabriellaella23]

Do the kids listen to the real version first?

[murdoclives]

please do a Grizzly Bear song!!!!!!

[futurstarjt]

those harmonies are amazing...this chorus is great i wish i went to this school

[qwerty78228]

Omg and yes bjork should hire these kids asap!

[qwerty78228]

Omg an album with stuff like this would be magic. This is just soo beautiful! Who wouldve thought bjork songs would actually work and sound soo amazingly with this type of arrangement. Incredible.

[BeeLeeveMee]

i saw you guys on a repeat of tyra today!

hahaa you guys are soo amazing

its actually incredible how talented all of these kids, and so passionate

when singing.

[Neequu78]

This is amazing. So many little kids don't even know who Bjork is. I love this so much!

[rainty98]

I have listened to this song more than a dozen times. The depth of the piano's lower notes, combined with the soft, flowing tones coming from these young people - and not to mention their harmonies - make me want sit under the most beautiful branch filled tree and think about how One Day everything will make sense. I thank these young people, and I thank you, Mr. B, for being open to this experience. This type of work is what ends suffering and helps us to keep rising again and again.

[dphilastre]

I am going through these videos and just sobbing my eyes out. This is so beautiful and exactly what I needed today. You know, the thing with Tori Amos and Bjork is that they use a lot of imagery that is over the top of many adults heads. But these children get it. I finally figured out why - because a lot of their imagery requires using pure emotion to understand and these beautiful children have it in spades.

[memetutuyesyes]

Wow, You are a great music teacher... up to date with today's youth. Kudos!!!

[aragaosilva]

wow! I like it better than the original! you guys are amazing!

[vitologico]

björk should contract these children to sing with her (songs and carry them to her concerts like chorus-singers)

great voices

björk deberia contratar a esos niños para cantar con ella (canciones y llevarlos a sus conciertos como coristas)

execelentes voces!

[asyarihahaha]

@vitologico That would be a really good idea! Never thought of that

[PurpleDragon0]

You should get on BlogTV and sing and I want to see the kids read our comments sometime, watch them see all our compliments and stuff. That would be so cool. (gimme a thumbs up if you agree!!!!!)

[iShona000]

these kids everytime i here them i smile they all look like i jus love music class you kno yall are all stars keep it up

[kburgs]

wow, these kids are killing me. listening to björk is already such an emotional experience for me... hearing it arranged like this with these beautiful voices makes it so much more powerful, which is really saying a lot since björk is such a powerhouse herself! bravo bravo BRAVO kids!

[LuKasAV6]

Such a gentle, ethereal rendition of a great song. I cannot get enough of this performance.

[FloranceAndThePeachh]

you should really have these kids sing will you be there by michael jackson. i think that would be breath taking. :)

you guys are amazing. keep it up!

[melopsicodelia]

this sounds absolutely perfect, awesome job, good vibes for you guys

[The08081977]

un dia sucedera.. cuando estes listo, floreceras y un avion doblara en curva graciosamente alrededor de un volcan y dos soles brillaran para ti, lo puedo sentiiiir cuando estes listooo, y los fuegos artificiales arderan en el cielo para ti!!:))... este es mi regalo..

[alrune8]

It's NO easy feat to make a good cover of a Bjork song due to the intricateness of her voice and arrangements.

And you guys passed with flying colours. I'm REALLY entranced by your performance. Beautiful.

[NasTProduction]

much better than bjork

[majazb]

these guys are amazing XD

[treescanbegreen]

This is awesome! You should do unison!

[maisarah73]

I've created my ps22 playlist, this tops the lot. I think I might be going a bit nuts because it's on continously play for more than 12 hours now LOL...that's how special and moving PS22 chorus is to me. Beautiful vocals, amazing pianist - and some of the best songs ever. bliss, thank you so much, Marina in KL, msia

[Ivandovich]

Beautiful!

[PD718]

You guys are awesome

[Damuzikal1]

The soloist on this was so good. She has such a nice clean tone.

[foolsrushin777]

i love this(':

[DirtyLoveJoy]

Beautiful too. If you can, Mr. B, consider Bjork's 'it's in our hands'. This sound just as great. Take care.

[dayglowjoe]

you have any studio recordings? seriously, that would be amazing. the piano is too strong in this recording, bring thr vocals out!

[Zendrig]

There are many good quality mp3 songs on PS22's blogspot homepage including 'Flavor' and 'Just Dance'.

[fishkjk]

wow! the soloist has a voice like an angel! so pure and natural! I am amazed! you can tell the teacher is really committed, gotta give him props for this also!

[TricaPLeeAnn]

lol one of the kids isn't even singing, he is slowing but surely doing it on and off. . Lovely Chorus though!

[FiFTeam1]

I love it! :-)

[chucosan]

Im a grown man Crying WTF!!! SO GREAT! i love this song

[astorastilbe]

i really like how you are exposing these kids to music they wouldn't normally hear, like tori, bjork, regina spektor and passion pit. there renditions are so heartfelt and bring out new emotions from the song.

[NadiiiStefiii]

wow I love it

[mikey1116]

i love their music i am going to miss them when they leave

[mikey1116]

omg i just recognized Jared got a haircut i did not notice him lol

from,

destine

[PHATfatChick]

I can't stop listening to this. In all honesty, I prefer it over Bjork's version. (sorry, it's true!)

[TheDoodlibop]

Ohhhhhh myyyy~!!! the children were so spot on and the soloist made me tremble with goosebumps. It was a small little insertion, but OH the impact! Lovely job, to all of you! <3

You are awesome, Mr. B!

[katherinehowellmusic]

the soloist and choir are out of this world good!  great job teacher!

[lilward2006]

Maya sings with passion...PS22 chorus is wonderful and I love the way they sing from the heart...God bless em all

[Cracdindon]

this children choir version is very beautiful, very emotional.

[alefaye36]

I just found this via a friend on FB. I am so blown away!! How refreshing. Love the emotion the kids are putting into it :D

I love BJORK too .. didn't realize she was becoming so 'mainstream!'

[Zendrig]

@alefaye36: The teacher's music taste is everything but "mainstream". That's one of the reasons why this chorus is so special.

[Janzah]

hey! Do I see some new faces? :)

[seagullcanfly]

I've been a huge Bjork fan for a long time and the work you're doing with this chorus is amazing and inspiring. I've subscribed to your videos and look forward to more of these performances, thanks.

[AveIvy]

This song is so pure, it made me cry.

[PrettyNormalWeirdo]

i love how dramatic some of them are, it's so cute. they all love doing this so much

[quiqui52]

nice

[Jacko154]

you spelt 'favourite' wrong :P

[ChaBakkuh]

favorite is the american way.

favourite is canadian.

kinda like color and colour.

[mdemariah]

english people say colour and favourite too, don't they? :S lol

[bitragale]

My sister's going to be in the 5th grade this upcoming year. I kinda wish she came here so you could be her music teacher lol.

[cmdyo]

keep it up !

[CARNIVALxSTYLE]

Hi, Mr B, I went to this school and you were my music teacher for 5 years :) I remember the whole Graniteville Idol thing too. I know Sierra and Michael Roach were in it, because they were my classmates. But anyway, I love the chorus! They sing so well. I think they should sing Cloudbusting by Kate Bush :) it's a great song..

[Zendrig]

Do you know who started the spontaneous applause? That's a nice gesture. Very beautiful solo by Maya.

[agreggofsociety]

the kids do that for each other, don't know who started it in this particular instance. aren't they the coolest? and yeah maya has an incredible voice!

[awesomepossumJB]

Outstanding! Bravo! This is just flat out beautiful! I seriously almost cried. Amazing job guys! And what a great teacher! :]

[Latinlabel]

oh ok, Awesome!

[UntouchedCullen]

wow.

they never disappoint

are you gonna miss 'em?

[agreggofsociety]

i always do when they go. but they come back and visit, and hopefully we can post some updates of some of the individual members, like we have done of chorus alumni justin and ben.

i still have several songs i'm holding off on posting until after their MTV News spot airs.  i'm excited to say we've saved some of the best for last.... :)

[UntouchedCullen]

Wow sound exciting.

Now I can't wait.

What you do is nice... for these kids

I really would have wished I had something like this when I was in 5th grade.. haha
