Chancel Choir - Rhythm of Life

[HarryPotterFan585]

We are children and we have to memorise this... they gets words...

[bribear521]

This is one of the many chorus songs I have engraved in myself FOREVER! :)

[Willieck01]

My choir is singing this at a concert this Friday after only two rehearsals!!!!

Needless to say we will be using the dots.

[clbstanley]

This is a great example of this anthem. I am doing this exact arrangement with my 6,7 and 8th Grade Combined Choirs. I am so thankful to have this excellent example to share with them. I love that it's ADULTS!!! Thank you for your awesome video.

[arkibet]

I love that one Alto! She's the only one that looks like she's tingling from the Rhythm of Life :)

[WistonFreeman]

I don't think they practiced very much...

This song in particular is a lot more interesting when your hands aren't tied to the sheet music.

[SiOnKeYfOr54]

Doesnt sound liek there are any alots

[ofloper66]

My chorus class is singing this!IT RULES!!!!!Im in the honors chorus and we went to this festival and we BEAT EVERY SINGLE CHOIR THERE!WE RULE!!!!!My class is using this song for our spring consert!

[ursurs122]

@ofloper66 were doin it to i go to lincoln park its for spring too

[Mayawazumi]

Their timing was off a lot in the beginning.

[puppybuppy]

There is many versions to this song! There is different languages and different words! We are singing this version at my concert.

[pinkbobble]

why does it say neigber it should say daddy

[twistedgrobie]

This Rhythm of Life is arranged specifically for choirs, and the words have been changed so it makes sense without knowing what's going on in the plot. Unfortunately, with this arrangement you're also not allowed to assign the characters or make it look like a scene out of Sweet Charity because you haven't paid for the rights for the musical just the song... it's not so much complicated as it is a pain, though it's understandable.

[crissmyangel31]

i sang it and it said neighbor.....there are soooo many versions lol

[catdemonninja]

because the Sweet Charity version is disliked by churches "and the voice said daddy there's a million pidgeons, waiting to be hooked on new religions" Tell me what church would sing that.

[Treemeadow]

A Unitarian Universalist church would.

[catdemonninja]

No, they didn't. They sang "and the voice said neighbor there's a million reasons, why you should be glad in all for seasons."

read carefully before jumping in....

[Treemeadow]

I did. This choir didn't, but I know UU churches that would.

[ellabella180]

HHAHA i'm a UU :D

[Treemeadow]

Me too! :D

[princessTweetay]

No they said "and the voice said nieghbor theres a million reasons why you should be glad in all four seasons"

[catdemonninja]

no. I was talking about the SWEET CHARITY version, not this one. Again, read carefully before jumping in....

[mtaoboist]

great job!! I wish my choir had this many boys in it!!

[TRWolf]

...why were the lyrics changed?

[xenvoguex]

our choiir is better ^^

i will post a vid

from the next school concert :D

but

this choiir is quite good...i wish we had as much men as they have X__x

[PINKipod2013]

OMG

were singing this in chorus

its prettty goood

[BeautifulPast]

Can't understand why choirs cannot learn words!

Younger choirs can sing without words ... just a suggestion!

[godnchicn]

Not to be rude to this choir, but do you see how old they are? I'm sure they're just a stone's throw from the age where they start Alzheimer screenings on an annual basis (to say the least).

[drahazar]

Excellent, I LOVE this song.

Oh, and thank you for not attempting the top C (I think it's a C; it might be an E) so many choir get someone to try it, who fails, sings it really flat and ruins the ending :(

Anyway, great performance.

[hellogoodbye0110]

we're doing this for my school choir (we're gonig to the mcps festival!! :)

[ASDAPOI]

I go to an all Girls school so we have no boys at all. We did this for a concert, but I couldn't stop coughing!!

[lovelychino]

Lol I'm doing this song in choir... But I'm the only guy in my choir sadly... >.>

[lizzierox166]

aww we have also outnumbered the guys in our choir there's 14 of us and 4 boys :P:P

[janelapoule]

lmao! theres at least 20 girls to about 4 guys in ours!

[HayLinLa]

Our ratio is about Girls 4:1 Boys.

[catdemonninja]

we've got three guys that actually sing, but one of them sings loud enough to be three, and he balances it out for this song.

[12345rosieposierocks]

the ONLY guy???? wow. lol i know that outnumbering of males is common in choirs... but that must be a bit hard on you!

good on you for joining and singing anyway.

[clashbaby1]

We might sing this for our December concert.

We're in 9th grade though.

So it doesn't take that long to learn it.

It's fricken easy.

[briahna93]
