i think this is one of the best covers on youtube, but the only problem i had was the conductor, shes obviously not a profesional but she seemed to be going off randomly. idk. but i still think its sounds great :P
Nicely tone..... Extremely accurate dynamics , good blend within the cluster chords too! I love the interpretation of the vocoder. Great tone !! KUDOS !!
I was more reaffirming your comment than negating it. I know you weren't putting them down. I just agree that these women have lovely voices, and I can especially appreciate the lower voices because I know that the lower register can be more challenging for ladies this age. its all good :)
the blend is impeccable, the lower notes stand out well, but hey, they're the base, it's good hah (i agree with train12345, i'm a low note kind of person myself).
i tend to like a 5th line on this song, however, this is wonderful. Unless my ears are deceiving me and there are actually 5 lines hah. I only really noticed two kind of pitchy areas. After the last group i listened to, i believe that my ears wanted to fall off, hah, but this redeemed. this is brilliant
My goodness... I have watched several choirs now and they pretty much all sucked because no one would do the song the way it is supposed to be. The Achordants video and you gals are AWESOME! Made me tear up a bit
I listen to this song all the time, and it amazes me that there's only 4. Your group does an amazing job. I'd love to get a group of my own together to do this song.
There may be only 4 parts in this arrangements, but Imogen Heap performs it by singing into a vocal processor that changes the pitch of her voice to match the keys on a piano. Solo voice and no keys = one part. If she's hitting six or seven keys, then there are seven or eight parts.
That's neither here nor there; this arrangement is lovely, as is the performance.
i WISH we'd done it ourselves, but we actually commissioned a professional arranger (Joseph Bates) to arrange it. I think it's one of the best Hide and Seek arrangements out there (obviously a biased opinion...)
I have to say... I just finished watching all of the acapella groups on you tube who do this song... and you were by far the best. :) thanks for this song, you sound great!
I agree. I have been finding group after group doing a less than good, if not crappy job, so this one is most refreshing. Excellent blending, impressive low altos, and oh my favorite: NO OVERSINGERS.
Good singing, but you need to work on posture and movement. A couple of you have some of the worst singing posture I have ever had the displeasure of seeing, others are perfect. A couple people are a bit rigid in their movement.
Good mouth positioning from what I can see. Very good unison.
Try matching your clothing.
I saw you at the Victorian walk a couple years ago and you were great.
I hope to see more from you. I'm sure you will be much improved very soon :D
Who's that amazing low voice?

I like how the altos didn't overpower everyone. Most group/choral covers I see the altos are so freakin loud they are all you hear lol.
Great job! Loved every minute of it!

i dont reallly understand why you kept throwing the song up and down so wildly? like going from soft to SUPER loud? but i did like it :)

@YTlovee its called the dynamics of a song and drastic changes are quite hard to do smoothly like that...I hope that helped.

i am in an acapella jazz group and we really want to do this song.
is there anyway i could have this arrangement?
we wanted it to just be the women, which is 6 people,
we figured one to a part, this is exactly what we were looking for.
if you could help us out that would be awesome.

I see no problem with doing different arrangements but pitch wise The Achordants and this groups take the cake along with maybe two other groups.
mulioctaveman 3 years ago
The lower parts need to be a bit louder at some parts i know as women it's hard to make it rumble but it's needed.
