Do you know where I can get sheet music for this? You did amazing and I wanted the best reference so I can get my friends to sing this with me for my girlfriend.
A quartet of voices Sung only by one An increible talent That's second to none I listened with wonder To every note sung a blending of harmonies From incredible lungs I wait on with gusto For your next vocal treat For this awesome number Will be dam hard to beat. :)
@TheChalkmiester Hahahahaha that's wonderful man!! I love this! I tried to beat this with my brand new video (Children of Israel) but I don't know if I was able to push this song aside. Be sure to let me know ;). Thanks for the poem, I love it!
You're incredible. The way you hold notes is heart-shattering. I tried to sing along but ended up running out of breath. And from that point on I could only listen. This needs WAY more views!
@victryismin89 Thank you very much for your kind words! unfortunately, it doens't have a lot of views because of the video, I'm afraid . If it would have been my head four times, singing the entire song I would have had twice the number of views. Kinda dumb, but that's just how YT works for people. I don't mind. I don't do this for the views or for the subs, but for people like yourself, who can really appreciate the hard work and take the time to listen to what I have sung. Thank you! Take care
I watch this every day, Sonny. Beautiful. The vocal quality is virtually perfect to me. the emotion is fantastic and the final chord... oh, the final chord. My respect for you in this song has only gotten bigger since the day i first watched this.
@Elwahjazz89 It's comments like these that make me smile every single day. I'm so happy that I can make a living out of singing and have people like you which make me feel the support more than ever! Thanks a lot!
Bloody hell mate, everytime I hear anything from you I smile and in awe on the last chord. Man, just the chords you make are utterly amazing! Thank you for posting videos when you can, I love listening to your videos. I am going into multitracking myself soon hopefully. I just need some equipment. Any tips or pointers, I will be glad to take some from you, since you are if not my favorite, real close to it, multitracker/barbershopper on youtube. How in the world are you not famous from this?
@1puppetmaster1 I know exactly what you mean by "smile on the last chord". I have the same reaction with my favorite vids:). It means a lot to me to know that I have that same effect on some people! I've been posting way less vids than I'd like to because of a lack of time (consumed with performing, rehearsing and working as a Vocal Coach, so that's not to bad is it ;)). I have a full BBS song coming up in March (I'll have some time to record then). Thank you SO much for posting your kind words!
@sgtsonny I understand what you mean, so much to do so little time XD. I am anxious to hear that BBS song now. I am anxious to get started myself. Thank you for helping me out. Good luck! And thanks again
hey, im trying to get into multitracking, do you have any tips for helping hit highs and lows? not falsetto lows, but like chest notes, plz and thanks
This is phenomenal. I think to fit my voice I'd make a few adjustments, add a little more bass, maybe even another voice. But this is beautiful. Do you have the 'sheet music' for it? This has inspired me to record a version of my own, and I like so much in here that I'd rather use it as a base than try to write one up from scratch.
Absolutely amazing one of the best and finest examples of multitracking . gotta tell ya sonny ,she MISSED OUT on an amazing man . I heard the over tone loud and clear at the end
hahahaha you're right man :) It just seems kinda dumb to start lip syncin' this stuff now... I have been thinkin' about it, but what's the use? Thanks for the comment man!
Well it is quite a lot of work yes, but I would be more than happy to do so if that would result in more views... I just want to make my music heard. Thank you very much for the support, I hope to hear some multitracking stuff from you soon. Keep me posted!
I agree :) I bet that if I would lip sync a video to this, I would hit 1000 views in a month or two, but the pictures aren't appealing enough I guess..
So you say pictures of your girlfriend are not appealing? ;)
Haha, I know what you mean - people want to see real videos instead of still frames. I keep telling that every new multitracker who doesn't do videos with real motion.
Hey...pictures of your lady are just fine. Our ladies play a very important role in our lives and give us something to sing about. I am looking forward to my first barbershop convention with my girlfriend attending...should make it a lot more fun!
i absolutly love this buddy!! such a lovely gift for anyone to recive - i cant get enough of this song! i think im going to listen again ;) subcribed!
Well thank you VERY much :) I love Flight of the conchords and that is as far as my knowledge of your culture goes :) so I haven't got the slightest clue of how your national anthem goes... but now you got me curious, I'll check it out :D
Flight of the concords Haha. They're quite funny those dudes. Yeah it's a nice anthem, but it sounds stupid when it's sung in solo. I reckon a nice arrangment in your style will sound good.
haha you are to kind, but unfortunately this is not my arrangement. It is by arranger Vicki Uhr. I have listened to several versions of your national anthem and making a beautiful barbershop arrangement for it shouldn't be to hard, since the melody is very beautiful and kinda asks for great harmony :) you're lucky, try listening to the Belgian anthem... No cry for harmony whatsoever :D
I believe that this is the Vicky Uhr arrangement. It's easily the best arrangement I've ever heard.
FineyLeee and nbo085 sing it together, in its entirety, on FineyLeee's multracked Barbershop MP3 album available for a donation of your choice at his SunShineTracks website.
This song is the official Louisiana State Song. Its most popular singer back in the day was C&W singer Jimmy Davis, who became Governor of Louisiana (and easily one of the better governors in its relatively recent memory).
That's brilliant, man. He sent it to me a few months ago, and I gave him some amazing constructive criticism that resulted in his song being tweaked and sounding as damn good as it sounds now. So everyone can thank me ; P

Great Video(s) -I'm sure they'll catch on in the mainstream soon.
If you sent me sheet music (if you used it) I would be forever grateful and I would promote your video.
