Great soloist, but the group as a whole needs work, especially the ladies with wavering off of the pitch and also overpowering the fellas. Good stuff regardless.
@1amaznmom damnnn thats awesome!!! i want to audtion also if i get in.. but thats two years from now lol , whatever your majoring in have fun! usc is great haha both of my bros are trojans :)
What a fun song! This has been my favorite version of "Fireflies" I've seen on YouTube so far. I think you really captured the ethereal mood of the song. My a cappella group is performing this song next semester, and I'm looking forward to singing it. Thanks for a great performance.
The arrangement is just a little busy. I'm in an a cappella group at my university, and I'm currently working on writing an arrangement of this song. The hardest part is making a full choral sound out just a bass line and a high solo with a few random staccato octave lines thrown in. There are parts when everyone comes in that just sounds too busy. I really like the soloist's tone. It really adds a lot of uniqueness to the song, but the background really needs to pay attention to dynamics.
chorus sounds great, very rich and full chords with nice dynamics. Crescendo into verse 2 from chorus 1 sounds great. It is too slow however, the soloist sounds like he's having an off night too, I can tell he can sing it better than this particular performance. VP is a little weak and dragging...if anything he should be rushing. Girls need to listen more, with that many people and a mixed group, there should be more range covered and not as many people sticking out...blending blending blah.
Great soloist. VP needs more bass but the recording might just lack low end. I dig the arrangement. Sopranos should be less diva and more accompaniment. Those are all nitpicky things. Great job!
are the ladies air humping the lead singer?

Between 1:30 and 1:58 something was a little off. Other than that it was the best I've heard.

Yeah, Jeff, you really need to work on your intonation in your pre-song speeches.
