Cedar Rapids Washington 2010 - "Jai Ho"

[CreateCliches]

YOu know what, I don't say this very often, but I am severely impressed.

[eavesbaby10]

My Favorite ! <3

[milind006]

It is terrible when Americans laugh at, make fun and think less of all Indian movies because of all the songs and dances, good to see that such barriers are going away. Good to see that people from different places appreciate arts/movies/music etc. and the way they are done, of other places without prejudice.

[singinginto2011]

Best. Song. EVER!!!! :-D

[redhatbird]

@austinfels I sang the original premiere of this at Miami University, so I know it's not in English. :P

[americandesi1224]

omg, im Indian and i don't care what people say, this was (no offense) horrible. im sure the singers/dancers are very good, but in this song, i didn't like it at all. im sorry, that's just what i think.

[nashaysashay]

Franklins is wayyyyyyyy better even for being a middle school Just saying but coool

[cowpenguinbear]

@nashaysashay Are you serious? I'd like to see your middle school do this... have they? No? So don't compare a little middle school's show choir to Washington's Momentum.

[Luwangli]

this guys has pulled it off so godamn well.... so Energetic, so melodious and Helluva choreography!!!!

[mdatheeqt]

u guys r superb yar !...jai ho a r rahman

[a77p456]

my high school concert choir is bout to start rehearsing this song!!

[snehmukh8]

completely off tune

[Learn2FlyAgain]

@snehmukh8 For One, How Would You Now?! Plus They Are Dance While Singing! I'd Say Its Pretty Hard To Keep A Tune. But How Would I Know If They Were Off Tune, Maybe They Were Tought It That Way!

[snehmukh8]

@Learn2FlyAgain Obviously I would not be commenting if I did not know... I was one of the people who decided the tune for the actual song :)

[understandingicse]

@snehmukh8 ?

[dancerchicky1996]

@snehmukh8 well the judges must not have thought so because they won almost every competition.... obviously you don't know what show choir is.

[snehmukh8]

@dancerchicky1996 dance=good the thing (i've studied for 10 years [not only 2 correct ignorant people]) is that indian music contains 22 notes (shrutis) in an octave instead of american's 8... there are at least 2 - 3 intricately placed notes in between (the notes of the american octave), which if not hit perfectly is just american music with indian words (which in this case were not pronounced correctly)...none of the JUDGES had proper hindustani classical vocal music i suppose???what i thought

[dancerchicky1996]

@snehmukh8 .....but they are also in high school! obviously they are all very talented i know that they worked really hard!!! sooo yeah.......

[alychont1993]

reminded me of earth bending.

[AtomicFaxMachine]

Loved your guys' show that year. I'm so glad they won at Raise the Roof.

[Zukoluver6]

This was much better than i thought it was gonna be. Great job!

[geekysai]

I am Indian. Live in the US. Cultures and music should know no boundaries.

[TentPegWielder]

2:35-2:55, goose bumps every time!!

[musicvitality]

i was a member of emmetsburg's high voltage. we did jai ho this past year and you guys owned us!! seriously though, this is one of the BEST songs i have ever seen perfomed in show choir (and i've been doing it for six years). KUDOS!!

[ryanR3B3L]

Honestly. This choreography and song choice is probably the most difficult I have seen on here. Congrats to you guys. This is incredible.

[faithiebug]

so friggin cool! awesome job!

[redhatbird]

The pronunciation hurts me so bad. Dancing's not too bad though.

[austinfels]

@redhatbird u do realize it isnt English

[CrimsonMidnightRose]

And this is why we KICKED MAJOR ASS at last years competitions! If only all the awesome seniors here hadn't had to leave, this years Momentum is gonna have a lot to match up too. ^_^

[stunnasarah]

I love this!

Their costumes are amazing colors. :D

[kralston0]

Damn Drake you need to come back to waterloo, and teach us parts of this!!!

[chubbypengwin88]

lol... couldn't understand any of the hindi part..... =[

[atlantismoose]

@chubbypengwin88 catch me catch me catch me come and catch me I want you now, I know you can save me come and save me I need you now, I am yours forever, yes forever I will follow, anywhere and any way, never gonna let go.

[SelahFrese69]

hah omg, I'm going to be a freshman at wash this coming year, and for their freshman showchoir auditions we're learning this,,, it's sooooo cool, and yet so hard at the same time. but it's amazingg <3 and i loveee it

[pornomime33]

wow

[bigsick3270]

i like it...though some of there words are wrong..

[ratskan]

Wow, this is my old HS and I never would have thought they would ever touch this stuff. They do dance better than the amazingly hot actress in Slumdog Millionaire. Way to go Warriors!!

[abhishekcs27]

@sweetcandyescape im indian also and i thot it was awesome... who cares if they didnt get the pronunciation perfect... it was still a very noteworthy attempt!

[sweetcandyescape]

no offense... but being indian, the pronunciation really bugs me... tis not good.

[poetiue]

This is my favorite show choir song thus far in all my 30 years!

[jonsie1026]

[Stolba]

Momentum wants me want some Mo :-)

[swimcheka818]

[AbsolutelyAbra]
