The Whiffenpoofs: Grace Kelly

[CaraceKwan]

Oh my. the ending is so lovely x)

[wilsoncombatgrl]

A classic performance....

[superflea72]

great harmonies but that lead vocal was nasally and irritating to me.

[xExpressUrSelfx]

I give this performance credit to making me become a fan of Mika. I hadn't heard this song in forever and this made me search him again and the rest was history.

Anyways, great job guys!

[Belx2]

Aaw. Whiffenpoofs. <3 Talk about amazing stage presence.

[KatrinaMess]

So many of you miss the point! It's Yale Men. The song is Grace Kelly? "And you only like what every body else says you should like". HELLO!

As for those remarks about squeaky-go get decent audio. I'm using Boston Acoustics and the good Denon, not the Best Buy junk. On key, good falsetto ( more sarcasm there too) and it's an odd song, just like men in evening dress are odd to people who don't go to actual formal events and think rented suits are dressy. Great performance, especially contra

[mdb392]

i swear theyre too awesome for my life

[YoloCato]

As someone said before, the song might be off in a few places but... it doesn't matter. That guy just OWNED the stage. I'm amazed. Music is about performance too, and his attitude just pulled me in from the start. I really believed what he was singing. I think that is what makes this performance awesome :D

[HollywoodDitz]

Oh, Brennan. Please have hot sex with me. Or sing Grace Kelly over and over..

[Didinhaa94]

Ohh the redhair guy..

[X3produtions]

You're all nuts. This guy never hit a clean note during the entire performance...especially the high notes. The rest of the group missed the first two bars as well. It got better quickly, but the lead singer was NOT as good as you all are saying.

[everlasting678]

@X3produtions True, there wee deffinetaly things that coud be improved on, but performing is not just about hitting the right notes, but actually getting into it and having presence, this guy has mastered that. And though there were notes that can't really be forgiven there were some that could, partialy due to the fact of him putting his own style to it, though you're right, it was too sharp and squeaky and such in a couple places, but that certainly does not mean his performance was bad.

[KinokkoStar]

That. was sexy . Period.

[GreatestHitter]

Brennan killed it!

[truebluefan01]

He belongs on Broadway... just saying

[MrPhmotoka]

Sensacional!

[rikhoes]

Singing like enjoying sunlight (0.28 - 0.29)!

[jamisonslade]

Vocal Point is so much better at this song. I wish they'd do it on the Sing Off

[jenkwokfunnygirl]

that is sooooooooooo great.  FIERCE!

[meandthatchiic]

Brennan=NPH

[singforlife1100]

1:09 I LOVE IT! (awesome spin!)

[LockerElevenEleven]

WHY DON'T MEN OF THIS ATTRACTIVE STATE EXIST WHERE I LIVE?!

[RaistlianMajerie]

Christ, Brennan is sassy. . . . I LOVE IT!!!!

[funtimeswithhanna]

this song was written for him

[BuzzKillStudios]

these guy were at my schools pep rally today there were so good

[rosscoughanour]

Tight ensemble, but the lead singer has no warmth to his sound.

[GoofyMischiefMaker]

0:40 is hilarious!

[TheBlueberryOne]

love the singer!! :D

[jaiblu777]

AHHHHH!!! <3 I love the face he makes at 0:31 :D

[jaiblu777]

AHHH!! <3I love the face he makes at 0:29 :D

[jaiblu777]

I love it!!!! <3<3<3<3 OMG!! AMAZING!! :D

[spyindisguise]

LOVE!!!

[mattdre88]

Talk about ZAZ!  This guy's got it.

[andrewjbaggott]

he sounds like a goat.



[OrangeAbby42]

omg I loved this!!! it made me smile so much!!!!!

[pottergal77]

I just like saying "Whiffenpoof"

[thbldstllstains]

this is such a great cover Mika should be proud :)

[dacrazeekorean]

holy tenor! most likely the craziest performance of the show...

[BrainDamageMugler]

His Voice... with those eyes, just TOO MUCH!!!!!

[amsalwajih]

Theres coming to UCMerced, and i feel no shame saying that I cant wait to see them even though im a guy :D

[imjustvintage]

I got chills the entire song <3

[singingislife18]

I can't believe the director (Stefan) is someone I used to hang out with in Masterminds! <3 you guys!

[preciouseyes87]

I loved this performance! Best one of the season IMO.

[ameliamlu12]

I REALLY hope Mika has managed to see this! Absolutely fantastic!

[ederevo]

Best ending ever jeje

[darkroselight]

Noone could follow this soloist.

[8riolu8]

when he growls 0:50 i melt same with when he hits the high notes 1:00 . :D

[8riolu8]

1:24 XD

[SSalmonFish]

I laugh whenever I watch this, they're my friends on Facebook, bahahaha... One of them drunkenly posted, "WHERE DID YOU COME FROM" on my wall. True story, and I commented "That's a talk for your mom" Yes, I got a lot of likes;]

[rpskallion]

It's so comforting to know the poofs haven't changed at all in the past few years :)

[kekechanning93]

OH MY GOD! THEY ARE TOO CUTE!

[Fredmk071]

THIS IS SOO FUNNYYYYYYYYYYYY XDXDXDXDXD

[alimabbas1993]

Go Micah !

[Kiobas99]

i'd almost think that the lead singer might be gay..

[megaslammer1]

@Kiobas99 Almost gay?...if he is not gay his boyfriend is

[Kiobas99]

@megaslammer1 lol u dont understand those type of questions do ya..

[Kiobas99]

@Kiobas99 sentences* sorry

[megaslammer1]

@Kiobas99 From the south..just an old expression we use...not hatin' just making a jk

[Kiobas99]

@megaslammer1 ahh ok, I'm not from the USA at all, I'm not even close :s I live in the Netherlands (fk yeah)

[megaslammer1]

@Kiobas99 Sweetness

[Judithly]

wow the solist is great O.O

[vandorenspaz]

I can't help but answer "YES" aloud every time he says, "Do I attract you?"

[orochimarupwn]

tailcoats :)

[gchanell525]

this was my favorite of the whole show

[12sennin]

0:50 grrrrr hah

[kidwatty29]

The red head makes hilarious faces

[TiN0350]

@kidwatty29

he's trying to capture people's souls

[Simbapoe]

In my opinion when the lead singer was in the Spizzwinks it was much more entertaining to watch but they did a great job here too! :)

[MannyO1995]

nothing sexier than a man in a tux<3<3<3

[LaPulcritud]

@MannyO1995 what about a man in a tux with that voice???

[singforlife1100]

@MannyO1995 Correction a Penguin Tux!

[SonicTheEggNog]

@singforlife1100 That's not a correction, it's a clarification...

[wesmatron]

@MannyO1995 They aren't wearing Tuxs though, they're wearing tails :)

[MrRandyrandell]

@MannyO1995 i have a tux lol

[WestwoodWarrior8]

a nice highlight of a pretty crappy show in my opinion. got real tired of Nicole scherzinger telling everyone how great they were through her sexual references and whatnot.

[professor2442]

I think the contrast between their formal, even stiff performance and the other groups confused people. At first everyone just stared with their mouths open. Then at :30 Brennan convinces them to reconsider. By 1:00 he's won them over.

[lilydoraloveshpdrwho]

they look constipated :/ i prefer mika.

[yesthisisshiloh]

This is freakin' amazing



[LaPulcritud]

Son of a bitch!!! please tell me the lead guy is heterosexual!!!

he is sexii with capital S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[lagreana]

I watch 00:55 over and over and over and over.

[LaPulcritud]

@lagreana couldn watch anything else

[garrettmillerdrums]

@lagreana 1:04 is good too

[dragoon13570]

This group did amazing on this song, especially the bases holy cow. They got this down.

[hillary546]

i still remember watching this live lol :)

[a91Wmedic]

This performance gave me chills! They should have won!

[TheBigOnesNeedLuvn2]

I need one of those suits for prom

[monkeybuisness411]

BETTER THAN ORIGINAL <3

[knet1992]

I have one word, awesome



[711bogdan]

sounds like frankie valli

[123epicme]

not to be mean but, is the lead singer gay? hes really good though....

[tinatiger100]

I love the chinese guy at 0:40!

[EasyExpertVillage]

I diffenetely recomend downloading this on itunes. i downloaded both seasons and they turned out great on my ipod nano 5g.

[TheShonuff888]

actually everyone was good and held their own this what made this show so good. i still thought street corner should have won.

[zmod39]

The people who pushed dislike thought it said dis' i like.

[zafeir35]

17 deaf people watched this video n didnt get it so they disliked.

[ThePinkxxguava]

I literally just sat there with my mouth open in shock. That is amazing ac

apella skills!

[MitsukixMitchikomi]

This guy should be on Glee!

[homer1950]

Too bad you stopped watching, because you missed the best performance of the series by Street Corner Symphony. Watch their version of Creep. No comparison.

[lamelori]

I seriously stopped watching the show after they were eliminated.

[darkroselight]

1:45 the guy in the both behind them is sitting there with his mouth open like..."wtf where did that come from?!?"

[Le123dr14]

haha i looove that little spin he does @1:10 :)

[mikockla]

I saw them perform this last night. I love the lead he's adorable!

[schroern]

I think I liked this version better than Mika's! Then again, I love a capella....

[Fralish4]

The dude with the shaking hands is annoying to watch. The lead is AMAZING!!

[passwordpanda]

What a sassy tenor

[POTTERMUSICALitalia]

Why am i not watching this show?

[bennnie1177]

wooohohooow



[cnorrisfan]

The fact that he actually acts like Mika makes this song for me...

[kidheart1]

I think just maybe..... hes um GAY

[MadHattress330]

@kidheart1 I think just maybe..... he's SINGING. Why the hell does that matter?

This number is incredible....sooooo incredible.

[kidheart1]

@MadHattress330 i was joking hes actually really fun and great to hear

[xXTitoman66Xx]

I thought they brought this group in as a professional guest performance. That's how good they were compared to everyone else that night.

[kg3441]

omg. anthony michael hall time warped from 1985. and the laugh at 1:45 made me laugh.

[Dormaninth14]

and the fact that their geniuses makes them even better

[oboechik96]

i want him to be my best friend. XD

[savannahsmiles9797]

they chose the wrong song the second time they preformed but everytime i listen to this song it gives me chills!!:D luv them

[Waluigifan95]

These guys were eliminated way too early. :(

[rockabyebyebaby21]

i love mika, and them, and this show!!!!!!

[dontevendare1]

THEY SUCK ND THERE SINGING AT STAB/ST ANNES BELFEILD CHARLOTTES VILLE VA...................W

[dontevendare1]

they suck



[Waluigifan95]

@dontevendare1 Dude, are you deaf?

[Nique203]

0:47-0:52 my fav part!

[ddoverox56]

RRUUUUFFFF!!!!!!lol i LUV that part!!!!!

[nitrogenskipper26]

This video never fails to put a smile on my face...Daym Brennan i think i'm in love with you now...

[wolvesrunwild]

They were my favorite group, I wish they had stayed in the competition longer.

[Kagome873]

The lead singers voice is absolutly AMAZING!!!!

[belnoah]

my first and favorite voice teacher was in the whiffenpoofs back in the 70's

[guelphdrums11]

Since when do (in no particular order) confidence and energy, talent and passion equate to arrogance &/or entitlement. Like, or do not like - but please refrain from judging based on any notions of 'class', 'orientation' etc..Enjoy the artistry and, it if makes you smile - wonderful, if not - change the channel and get on with your life.

[ReyMysterioFreak610]

I think I was cheering louder than anyone alse in the audience... and I was at home ;P lol

[misterman59]

I would want to totally join these guys right away, but then I would have to be smart enough to get into Yale

[AngelDemon83]

I like the second guy on the right he was cute

[darkroselight]

oh my little badass penguins why did you have to leave us so soon? :(

[GREEEENDAYYYYY]

@leenieXpanda lol

[KilerCam88]

I am a Yale graduate and this is their only good song, unfortunately. I was hoping they would go further.

[NostalgicLaugh]

This is why I want my husband to come from Yale. :D

[dethisbtfl]

they would've destroyed the competition if A) it wasn't rigged... and B) if they were allowed to sing the full song

[GREEEENDAYYYYY]

@leenieXpanda he's cute,short too ^_~ I've always liked guys who are short,so I can look them in the eye lol cause Im 19 yrs old and 5 feet high XD at least Im taller than my mom ;3

[soldiergirl84]

@GREEEENDAYYYYY I like short guys too. I'm 5'4" myself and if they are shorter, I don't have to stand on my tip-toes to kiss them :)

[bonec120]

they are so cute omg!!!

[ArayKoDahandahanLang]

the lead singer is extraordinarily captivatingly charismatically down right sexy!!! mahal ko na sya, promise!

[mm0901]

@ArayKoDahandahanLang And being a student at Yale, he's pretty much guaranteed to be smart too : )

[musicmastax100]

he is my idol.

[aznxkigga]

god i couldn't stand these guys. they can obviously sing, but everything else is just... off.

[GREEEENDAYYYYY]

@leenieXpanda lol actualy their image doesnt scream arrogant, it's more like it screams silly :)

although i can see where u can get the illusion that thier arrogant,it comes from the way they're dressed

and i agree the guy "directing" is annoying

dont get offended,cause this was meant to be an explanation

[Sketchtabulous]

I wish they weren't voted off so soon. The sing off really shouldn't be about a few strong singers that lead the group, it should be about the group as a whole.

The Whiffs are were it's at. They're real talent.

[daschy2004]

i added the lead singer and the one that conducts to my fb

[meghanalexandra16]

Pigfarts, Pigfarts, here I come. Pigfarts, Pigfarts, yum yum yum.

[meghanalexandra16]

@supanerd416 that officially made my day.

[hwirstrom]

i had never heard this song before the sing off, and when i did, my only thought was "what the hell just happened and why did i piss my pants?"

[KaTiErox4ever1]

we just watched this in choir today...the main dude is sooo adorable! lol

[wishuwerejade]

I love how they straighten up at the end like "Wow, I don't know what came over me.!" LOL

[LuckySevenSamson]

Holy crap, the lead's range is amazing. And the fact is that he strode out there with such badassery you couldn't help but pay attention. I loved it. They left too early.

[caldwellj]

@LuckySevenSamson That's an interesting observation. Fortunately, Brennan limits the striding of his badassiness to the stage.

[LuckySevenSamson]

@caldwellj Well said.

[AngelaPhebus]

@LuckySevenSamson nothing like the badassery of Brandon --seriously, the guy is incredible

[yeahIdontreallyknow]

Yeah, Brennan is better than MIKA.

[Jonnylingoman]

i hope vocal point from byu comes onto this show next year! they would be really fun to watch like these guys!

[nyreedylan]

1:24 i luuvv tht pose ahahah XXDD

[Alyxdm]

oh my god! brennan!

[supanurd416]

the lead reminds me A LOT of draco malfoy from A Very Potter Musical. so this pretty much made my life. ....and probably nobody will get this :(

[volleyballgurl101508]

@supanurd416 best.comment.ever. except brennan is actually a guy :)

[supanurd416]

@volleyballgurl101508 hahaha. i know. i kindof excpected him to start rolling on the ground or something.

[x0ShYgIrL0x]

@supanurd416....Do you think he strives to go to Pigfarts? :DD

[supanurd416]

@x0ShYgIrL0x lmfao. if he doesnt then he should. pigfarts>yale.

[x0ShYgIrL0x]

@supanurd416 Obviously. It has Rumbleroar!

[supanurd416]

@x0ShYgIrL0x lol. whatever the yale mascot is, it can't be cooler than that.

[ricolover123]

this is hilariously genius ^^

[smileyface298]

the leader singer is cuuute..

[Sakari99med]

I find myself strangely attracted to the lead singer...

[GREEEENDAYYYYY]

@Sakari99med everyone does lol <3
