the biggest thing i think yall can do to make this an A-plus song is to be expressive. sounding like human metronomes isnt the biggest turn-on. try to think more of a lyrical phrase and try to connect the notes otherwise it will sound like youre spitting notes at the audience. the biggest culprit is the first tenor. but great tuning! :D keep working!
this piece go too fast or any pieces in general, especially this piece, this should be done so people can enjoy the harmonies and strong notes. otherwise there are alot of good things like strong volume but maybe should be a little quieter in some parts one more thing is to make the biggest part of the song shine brightly, (the ooh part) otherwise like i said it was good but just minor fixes
volume petween the parts, now i know that some parts should stick out and it seems that the leader (person directing it is a little loud and possibly the first tenor. and a little on the second bass part, it can easily be fixed just listen to eachother. when you stick out you are showing that that part is way to important when all of them are just as important. third i have to adress the over done words, dont over do the words and clip off important words like crying jesus help me and dont make
hello, this is one of my first comments ive had to write in a while and first i would like to say that you did a pretty good job of this. there are some things i see you can do to make it better (this is from a person that has done this song and knows that yours can be better) anyways first of all, the one big thing i see wrong is that it doesnt seem you feel the piece in others words it looks like your just singing it and not knowing what the words mean. the second main thing is blending and
hey everyone i just want to let you know that Men 4 Praise will be working on a wide variety of new songs so we will be on youtube with more. if anyone wants to introduce us to a contemporary piece we will be glad to try it out so post any requests
Great job, guys! I hope that when I get a job teaching music after I graduate (may 2008), I can be lucky enough to have some guys that are willing to sing so well!
Why does everyone say ChildrAn? It's an E not an A...anywhoooo Good Job otherwise, A bit out of tune in some places. Make sure we hear the G at the and of Morning. But you blend very so well. The bass and baritone aren't too loud to drown out the tenors ^^
Constructive: Okay vowels..big thing Bass bring that part out alittle more Tenor alittle pitchy and rushing a bit
Lead i dont understand why u are directing...barbershop quartets dont have a director...they are just supposed to follow you automaticlly Baritone be careful on someparts Lead not bad
This is very good. It's one of my favorite songs. When I hear it, it makes me cry. Congrats on getting a perfect score at state! One question though. Why were 2 of you wearing the other color??
hi this is jeremy im the bass 2. ummm we were wearing the two colors because it showed the age, the darker 2 are the juniors aaron and brian and the whites are me jeremy and micah. thank you for your compliment if u have a version please share it with us
hey everyone this is jeremy im the bass 2 ummm we got a perfect score at state and we are performing tonight at a school event for our prom so thank you for your compliments and i thank alot of you for not bosting about your choir being better because it is not meant to be made fun of but thanks for your support bye
hi this is one of the performers id like to tell you that we got a perfect score on this at district and state solo ensambles and i am really disgusted to hear you say that about this song it is meant to get the feelings out of the children so please i ask you to think about it because that is just plain rude and it is not meant to be bosted on so please dont do it again
OHH MY GOSH! whenever i hear this song..i always like get goose bumps!! its amazing! [[and i was there when it was recorded!!]] they are just amazing!!
Really well done. Nice dynamic contrast at 3:00. Lovely blending mostly but sometimes it seems as though everyone is singing very soloistic. Tenor 1 has the most yummy part with top heavy harmonys and the bari has a very important job keep the whole chord ringing. Once again superb
hey everyone im jeremy im the one on the left i saw some comments on one of the other groups sights i just want to let you kno that this song was not made to brag to each other about who is better than who it is a piece that should be taken with respect so please dont say u are better than other people because the song was about praying to god so please dont use it as a sorce of something to be better at thanks
I feel you guys were great !God Bless

I really enjoyed this. I love barber shop.:-) Also, congratulations on your perfect at state.
Having said that, once in a while your tenor sticks out over the rest of the group. Also, don't ever... EVER scoop in this song. It just doesn't fit.
Hopefully you won't see this as an attack, but as constructive criticism.

I don't think the bass was loud enough... lol The lone falsetto sound is goofy to hear MOST of the time.

Sweet! Jeremy keeps coming over and singing that song, but it sounds so much better with all four parts.
This is Jeremy's neighbor, by the way, I'm not some creepy stalker person.
