Fruitcake - WPHS Chorus

[taylordon1]

omg that was sooooo funny!!! awesome!!!!

[shortyfreak1]

We sang this in high school. Instead of saying, Fruitcake, mmmmm!!", we put our fingers over our mouths like we were going to throw up. HaHa!

[D4knessXGam3play]

XD next week we are doing this in my chorus

[KevinJbwkz]

Altos are too scary

[TheHiMonster001]

I saw this song preformed live by Corona Del Sol High.... I was laughing so hard ! :D Soooo cute ! :3

[ABStaley51008]

Ok my highschool has done this cong traditionally for.. WHo KNOWS how long, and i have NEVER in my LIFE seen it down like this! This is Hallarious! Yes their musical abilities definatly dont show in this song, but it was greAT!!!!!!

[atemgirl1098]

were doin this in choras im in 7th grade and doing this wish me luck 4 ta concert

[vixen0825]

Um..I'm from WPHS and OBVIOUSLY,the ignorant people saying that this is bad don't understand the idea of a joke. If it's sung straight,it's boring.

And anyone who told you it WAS funny if you sang it straight was lying to your face.

And if you're rating it from a classical choral standpoint,you're even more ignorant because we obviously wouldn't wear aprons and make funny gestures with our hands and bodies during an actual serious performance.

So unless you can do it better,keep your mouth shut.

The woman holding the camera hyperventalates to orgasm or she was just lt in extreme euphoria from the crack she smoked earlier

[pepssismash]

Okay everyone saying this sucked. It was AMAZING! Yes, the point is to sound really bad and to have fun with it. The girls were supposed to be crazy! To have people so dedicated to making this song funny is a REALLY good thing. I'm surprised at how good this was, nobody broke character throughout the whole thing! This was really good. People saying it sucked obviously just don't know how the song is supposed to be.

[txmeerkat]

This was great! One of the choirs at my school performed this, but they just stood on risers and sang it "straight". This was SO much more fun!

[greenbeanbananas]

@AllieLovessYou its Winter Park High School

[NachtCaraticus]

Okay, I have to agree with most of the people here, the girl singers were really bad. The men were fine, though.

[GabiJonas93xoxo]

dude my choir is doing this... were soo much better... this sucksss... it's a joke... its almost sad.

[greenbeanbananas]

Wow everyone saying that they sound terrible. Haha. That was the point. It's not like they sang like this the entire night. WPHS has one of the best choral departments in FL. ;D

[JesseDatDat]

@greenbeanbananas hellz yea wphs!!!

[MrsShandiJonas]

@ced0813 THE point was to sound terrible ARE U AN IDIOT it was a joke. save ur jerk comments for later.

[Bephlat]

Apparently... this isn't these aren't their real singing voices. The director probably told them to sing like this to make the song appear to be more humorous.

[MrsShandiJonas]

@Bephlat ofcourse!! they are suppossed to sound wacky to be fun for the audience.

[midcitykid123]

my choir did it ten times better in voices

and also in funnyness.

i wish i would have recorded it.

but we were hilarious!

[moco421]

Go DHS! Haha we also do it around twice as fast...

[34Dino]

my chgoir is doing this we do it a thousand times better they suck balls

[yutingyuting123]

omg....

[RainyDay902]

this was really funny:)

[MrsShandiJonas]

@schooliscoolify IT WAS OUR STUPID FRIKIN WINTER CONCERT THE WHOLE THING WAS GOOD ACTUAL TALENTED VOICES EXCEPT FOR THIS SONG, IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A GOOD FUNNY BREAK FROM ALL THE PASSIONATE SINGING GOING ON.

[imadey0utube]

I dont they are really singing. More like singing with a nervous scream.

[chellycat14]

Wow. This is Aw-to-the-ful!

[SkittlesFoSho]

I understand having fun with the song, but I think it's wrong that this choir sacrificed the singing for the laughs. I mean, it was almost painful to listen to.

[funkybear88]

the cinnammon girls.. umm...

[cgarbo]

OMG, Choralography!

[kabiripie]

you know the can sing form the beggining chords.

ive seen other schools sing it amazingly, but it was boring.

This my friend.... hilarious.

i dont care if the singing was off, the performance was AWESOME!

[Victim2SuJu]

although i must say..

2008 was REALLY FUNNY!!!!

[adammetroka]

who doesn't sing this song? My school is doing it too, but we have a bass sing the cinnamon part as a solo with his falsetto.

[mileymofo13]

they suck. my school is ALOT better than that ALOT.

[luckystarfan12]

omg this song is soooo great. my choir is singing it too, but we are not doing couography

(sorry if i spelled the lst word wrong)

[alto19]

your altos....they scare me....

[coreyhome]

This was funny, but in terms of the actual singing it sucked. Especially the cinnamon girls weren't even on the right timing. And the last girls were squealing not singing. I have seen waaaaay better

[aztecaXV]

Dude I do not enjoy this song for its artistic value. Its a novelty and should be judged as one. I enjoyed it as some goofy song that the crowd eats up. Our top women's choir at my school UWEC, did this SSAA and it was hilarious! Unfortunately they will hear about it for the rest of the year. Good Job. It was funny.

[starrynight472]

our high school swing choir does this EVERY single year, but it's crazier. a guy runs across the stage shrieking "FRUITCAKE!"

[Irascka]

my choir does this but 100000000000000000000000000000­000000x better

[shanna73]

i <3 this song.

my choir does this song every year for christmas.

it's our tradition.

[swEetlOve930528]

now you add some lemon peel

i would say a cup or two

then some dates and figs and eggs

i would say a cup or two....

i think... lol

were singing this for choir too

[LaddyDongdegs]

Now you add some lemon peel

I would say a cup or two

Then some raisins, dates and figs

Just how much is up to you.

BTW, how the devil do you fold an egg?

[swEetlOve930528]

HAHAHAHAH omgod i was thinking that.. XD

kudos man.. kudos

[broadwaybabe99]

if you guys think it was funny to make the girls have like accents to cover their terrible voices, you were wrong. they sound worse. this video makes me so mad hahaha

[LaddyDongdegs]

Cloves and spice will make it nice but don't forget the cinnamon or perish in the bowels of purgatory!

By the way, we have 3 boys in our choir and they can sing the baritone better than them.

[shishibaby]

we're singing this in my highschool choir christmas program

[AFwannabe]

The person videoing has a very strange laugh...

[sourskittles777]

all i have to say is wow the girls really suck....hahaha....the VALHALLA HIGH SCHOOL MIXED ENSEMBLE IS SO MUCH BETTER...the girls singing in this video literally makes me want to blow out my brains...and then it just gets spastic...it sucks...JEEZ

[broadwaybabe99]

THANK YOU! i agree 10000%. when i said that everyone like flipped out on me. i totally feel you.

[Starscream350]

when i sang this with my choir last december, my group (tenors) were wind-up toy soilders. everyone thought it was so funny. they laughed so hard.

this video was funny. they did awesome stuff for their parts

[loosecommamonica]

I was so excited when I found a video of the song Fruitcake...but this is just awful :/

[eea26]

all of the girl singers were TERRIBLE!!!!!

[PhantoMilla]

To those commenting complaining about the quality, it's the style of the piece. You guys can say whatever you want (and that's ok) but at the one this year I saw it (was behind since everybody else watched from behind that was in chorus) and it was really funny. Check out other 'more serious' pieces and see how good Park Singers are.

[cocacourt10]

yes its supposed to be funny and sound like a chorus is performing it.

[Jupetta]

Don't be too harsh, the point of this piece is to be funny... not pretty so they did a wonderful job. My choir had done this, but their interpretation is much different than ours was.

[cocacourt10]

This is awful! I agree that the lemon peel and the cinnamon and also the candid cherries (which would be the girls parts) is horrible, they are not singing! I can't wait till we post our choir's video of this!

[pwr10]

the lemon peel cinnomen and fruit parts are horrible they are screaming not singing the PV choir is much better.

[PzNguyen]

they sacrificed too much quality for comedy

[misslonley1231]

that was cool my choir is gunna sing this soon.

[DrowDrizzt1]

ya!!! mine too!!! we're singing it @ r Cristmas concert!!

[jirachiswish29]

mee too! i like it its sooo cute!

[DrowDrizzt1]

lol ya, i think so to!

[4thinline993]

I also liked it!

We sang it my middle school years, and it brought back memories.. :]]

[DrowDrizzt1]

4thinline993, we'r doing choreography and i think that ours will b funny! i have this rely interesting pose and, well, ya....=) lol

[Nebetsu]

They sang this song SOOO terribly! That was ATROCIOUS. They took it stupidly slow for some reason, and you can be funny and sing well at the same time. When listening to the voices make your ears bleed, it's not funny anymore. They need to make it faster, and uh, funnier. This was TERRIBLE.

[cakolin]

oh wow, someone forgot to take the stick out of their bums. we're all singers, you know, no reason to get your undies in a bundle. and trust me, darlings, if park singers was remotely trying to sound good, you would have known.

[fjh5003]

The "Triple Trio" (actually 12 members in this ensemble) at my high school did this song, and they did the song at a faster tempo than this group did the song at.

[xaviersweetnes21]

wow. that was sooo long. and sooo bad. seriously. i mean, my high school's choir used to do that song every year, and i'm not saying it was amazing or anything (not by a long shot), but compared to this, it was freaking incredible. this was not funny, not entertaining, and really kind of annoying on the whole. plus, the singing was most certainly not good. i don't care if you're trying to do that for the style of the song... there are ways to do that and have sound good. this is not one of them.

[neonlightsonbroadway]

that dragged on for like five hours I couldn't even watch it.

When I went to Penn Trafford It was so much better

[paigecamerann713]

those lemon peeler girls are probably the most ANNOYING things i have ever heard. your guys are not even funny so stop trying. your cinnamon girls are off and sound horrible. WOW WOksdjfgaf. this is horrible.

[icymanonfire]

Wow... All the girls part's made my ears bleed. Couldn't they at least keep it in tune? And this song did not need to be that long.

[jarbinupastorm]

Hey Haters! "you don't have to make it sound crappy to make it funny"... well for the amazing singing we do already it's fun to let loose and match a funny song with funny tone... i loooooved fruitcake this year!!! if i'm having this much fun my freshman year i can't WAIT for my next 3!!!!!! AHHHHHHH love it.

[endurancefan]

Hehe. My choir sang this too

[demencha]

I'm glad my choir teacher doesn't make us sing this.

[x50Yenx]

Kenneth is a fag

[aaf8262]

GAY!!!!

[cellano]

seriously is my high school like the only high school that has so much fun with this? lol, we actually move into the audience and get into weird positions like pointing at an audience member or standing on chairs. But you guys were pretty good. ;)

[IgotzKarakter]

our school does that too, getting on chairs and stuff...

but this wasn't that good. as someone else said, they're just screaming it. they're not actually singing it. you don't have to make it sound crappy to make it funny. actually singing is ten times better. it's too screechy....

[broadwaybabe99]

ughhh..my school sings this song too, and i LOVE it, but this version really ruined it. like, the voices were so bad and annoying. you guys just like screamed it, didnt sing it, and i have no idea why anyone was laughing at it. the "way up high girls" ruined that part soooo bad! they literally sound awful! wow...

[BVgivesyouwings]

I love how often kenneth gets picked up...

[dmac89]

Alright.... welll the voices were amazing. HOWEVER, Fruitcake is supposed to be funny.... i dont think i even laughed at all :-\

sorry...
