  • I love to listen to my wife and my son sing together. My second favorite is you and your sons. Something in the same and different blend of a family And then any thing you do. Please keep your sons singing. And please keep making more multi-track. Don't stop believing was always a favorite of mine, Your's is great.

  • Don't stop singing, kid. Ever.

  • You're inspiring. And your video startup thing is super creative. :3 Good job.

  • Great job excellent very pretty

  • It surely is amazing. Only as well as making me smile, it brought a tear of joy to my eye. What a wonderful way for a father and son to share time together.

  • Amazing! I can't really think of the right words... But this made me, and I'm sure a lot of other folks, SMILE.

    Great job!

  • This is great but I've got to spread the word. Take out the American 'r'. It's just my preference. Any singer and any song can sound great with those 'r's in there, but without them, the sound is so much more professional. Sadly, today, professionals sing with these 'r's but I can't stand them. Blame my jr high teacher. She was amazing but now I hate American 'r's in music. Haha I tell my students sing British or australian. Otherwise, sounds great.

  • Fantastic! Great job guys!

  • Y

    ou should be proud. It's funny, listening to several versions on YT, I thought how fun it would be to do all parts (53yo) but you beat me to it. And I wouldn't sound near as good. Nice work.

  • Vance and Jason...there is no better time spent between Father and Son than in harmony singing. If anyone teases you over your choice of things to do for fun, Jason, just ignore them and know that you and your Dad have something very special that not many youngsters your age will ever have. Treasure these times.

  • OMG. Chills!!!!!

  • Life just doesn't get much better than that. Thanks to you both for sharing it with me and my boys!

  • OH WOWW MAN !!! THIS IS THE BOMB !! WWHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. REALLY GREAT.. DON'T HAVE MUCH TO SAY.. I love how your son really feels it when he sings, I can tell he's a great kid and he has soul. Good job buddy ! Great rendition, wow :)

  • Oh this is fabulous!!! =D Really lovely!! Jason's got a beautiful voice - really well controlled! And it's so meaningful as a collab with you rather than on his own - really a family affair! ;) Great job!!

  • Absolutely amazing. Such a beautiful rendition. My 8 year old twins sing with me when I'm listening to barbershop learning tracks in the car. I never thought of actually trying a multi-track. I'm inspired, and for that I thank you and your talented son.

  • Just great!!!

  • nice.very nice.

  • I don't know which moves me more; the beauty of the song, the collaboration between father and son....more please.

  • cute kid

  • Great voice, but why the bored look? Sounds awesome. Brighten up a bit!

  • beautiful.

  • really nice job guys--Vance you must be pretty proud. Will be interesting to see what happens when his voice changes. Jason no matter what, keep a song in your heart.

  • I like to just pop into youtube and play this around people without warning. Don't explain. Just play it. The amazing thing is you everybody in the room shut up for a blessed 3 minutes and 45 secs. Splendid selection.

  • No other word for this: Art

  • Love this tight harmony! I cant tell if i like the alto or tenor part better for the boy.. but one of those middle parts really have a nice sound.

  • Amen ! My mom taught me to sing harmony by ear from such a young age that I have no meaningful memory. I remember singing rounds with her before I was eight while we shared a tedious housecleaning chore. I treasure the skill now that my next birthday will be #69 and she has been gone for thirty years. Blessings !

  • I've heard a lot of versions of this song, and although no one can beat the original, this is probably the best cover I've heard. Keep it up :)

  • WOW. I´m stunned. I don´t know what to say.....amazing!!!!!!!!!

  • The best hope for preserving our art-form is parents and other family members sharing the joy with their children. Jason is already a rising star and I look forward to seeing him in the Collegiate Competition at a near-future International!

  • That intro.

    I could now care less about the less of the song.

    Dat intro. :O

  • Amazing!!! For a kid his age to already have that kind of range is just amazing!!

  • beautiful, just beautiful. I had chills at the end

  • Really good, I know you're young but darken your tome and give it a more English sound to your vowels and it will be reeeeaally rich sounding. You have a fantastic voice great job

  • this is beautiful, guys :)

  • awesome. made one of my favorite songs even better. :)

  • Comment removed

  • super, congratulations!!!

  • Vance and Jason... just WOW! I'm sitting here in tears after listening to And So It Goes. Thanks so much for such a wonderful rendition. You two make great duo. Jason... hope you do some more multi with you Dad. You have a wonderful voice. May God keep and bless you both. Ranger Rick :)

  • Ignore the few negative comments, enjoy the countless positive ones, and always enjoy what you're doing, your friends, your parents and your God --- great job lads! --- Dave :)

  • Ignore the negative comments, and enjoy what you're doing, your friends, your parents and your God --- great job lads! --- Dave :)

  • absolutely amazing!!!!

  • Wonderful work, guys!

    One day, I'd love to do a multitrack with you guys!

    - Parker

  • wow

  • VANCE...my two friends and I are trying to learn this song. Could you PLEASE post the individual parts separately asap so we can learn them? We' still need a bass or lead, but we'll find 'em! You do a FABULLOUS job, btw!!! We're HUGE fans!!! Thanks, Jan

  • Beautiful - do you have this harmony in sheet music format? Can you send on?

  • @deanboltman

    You can buy them for around 1.80$

  • @Jettingen1 WHERE????????? PLEASE SHARE, THANKS!

  • A Imagem é perfeita e a voz tbm,

    muito bom O.O

    parabéns

  • I loved it so much. Good song selection. The day his voice drops, we want a take (same song) with him alone Vance. I may respond to this in a video.

  • Great!!!

  • Oh my gosh I'm sorry....you could use some work but it sounded great especially for your age! Also, if you ever want to try out for a show choir, trust me you will get in...but you MUST SMILE SON. Lol your not a cow.

  • You cow

  • I was feeling a little blue when I got online; I'm certainly not now...

  • Wow!! Great job! I'm in honor choir and we are attempting this version this fall. I wasn't excited because I didn't trust the SATB of such a great song but now I am super excited! Keep it up!!

  • In a society that promotes rudeness, a lack of emotion, distance from family and instant gratification, it makes my cold little heart proud and chokes me up to see a father passing his skills and gifts on to the next generation. Jason - be proud of your father. Even when you grow up and things may not always be perfect, this is a father. Beautiful. The music is too. I hope that, when you grow up and have kids of your own, the relationship carries down.

  • @shaldana I hate living here, I'm so socially awkward it's not even funny.. It's almost like a fear of having 'real life' friends or something.

  • @FlopStep

    Everything in this world is a serious of choices and what you make of your situation. Volunteer - anyone can, no matter what age. You'd be amazed how much you find out about yourself and learn to belong even when you think you don't. :)

  • @shaldana i read your words, stopped, restarted the video and read them thinking of Morgan Freeman's voice. Brilliant.

  • Nice job!  Jason should smile a bit!

  • Beautiful. It bolsters my hope in a virtuous generation.

    (Who could possibly dislike this?)

  • Wow. There's absolutely nothing better than making excellent, highly artistic music with your own children. What a blessing--for the parent, for the child and for each one of us who is privileged to peek in and silently observe. I really believe God is smiling. Thank you.

  • amazing :)

    

  • I predict Vance's next video will be a collaboration and will somehow involve "September".

  • Wow he is great

  • This is the BEST................

  • Awesome

    Thanks!

    

  • Really beautiful!

  • I used to sing tight accapella harmonies myself. I saw this video today for the 1st time. IT MOVED ME TO TEARS!.. Most every time I watch it. Such a talented YOUNG fellow. Trained where he lays his head to sleep!! Bravo Dad! (ur good too!)

  • It is wonderful. Great song, great harmony, and a great memory for the both of you. Best wishes to both of you.

  • absolutely beautiful guys !

  • wow this was beautiful!

  • A kid doesn't really look like he likes to sing xD

  • @xxSvenxx1 not necessarily, kids sometimes can convey ridiculous emotion through their voices but still not their faces.

  • it is VERY good. But, i think the balance is just a little bit off, i understand it is a soprano heavy song, but the harmony is what makes the song. i like how i could understand the words better than some of the other virtual choirs, though. great work but if you make another in the future, work on your balance

  • Is that the kid from the fish fingers advert?

  • i had no idea that kids would actually no billy joel...and im 13!

  • We're overdue for another video. The boys will all be wearing mustaches in the next one and singing bass. (Sigh).

  • Why can't I be apart of their family?

  • those 2 can star in the next big movie: The Acappella Kid :P

  • Absolutely amazing!

  • Man that's gotta be a pretty cool feeling to make beautiful multitracks with your son.

  • Pretty awesome.

  • I think 5 people clicked the dislike button by mistake.

  • @chrisring123 they probably clicked it because is made them confused. it had so much sole but a ginger kid is in it. lol jk (ima ginger)

  • Great job on such a hard arrangement! Being a past member of SPEBSQSA/BHS, there's nothing as hard as staying on a note when there's a monster rub in the cord. The ear SCREAMS that it sounds like doo-doo, but the mind rules all and stays put on the dissonant note. Awesome recording Vance, and keep singing Vance. As I write this post, I notice that 5 people either want to pick it to pieces by saying what's wrong or don't like good vocal music. Don't let it get ya down!

  • This is amazing, brought tears to my eyes. Nothing strengthens a bond between people like music, as a parent I love to see you and Jason make such amazing music together for this reason, as well as because it is so lovely!

  • Gave me chills! It was amazing!

  • Jason, you are incredible. Vance what an inspiration!!

    I'd love to do this with my kids. Unfortunately, I'm not quite sure how to do it.  I have video and recording equipment. Can you suggest a few tips for doing a project like this. I have identical twin girls who are turning 7 and they do have reasonable voices.

  • Wonderful, Vance and Jason!

  • very well done. i only noticed a little trouble getting to the chords but once then tuned it sounded amazing. great piece!

  • that kids got a voice

  • 3:19 Gives me the chills every time! I love it

  • Okay, so my name is Tori Kent. Your cousin, David, is my band instructor(that's how I know you) My family used to sing with David. You are such an insperation, that me and my uncle are doing and acappella of this(: And believe me, it's because of you(:

  • Hey Jason,

    Great job pal! By the way, thanks for letting your dad sing with you. It's always good to hear from an old guy :). I look forward to your first solo performance.

  • very nice cover... my favourite 4 part arrangement of this piece of all time is Marc Lionetti's arrangement for Blind Man's Bluff (especially as performed by Maybebop), but you do a really good job with this one as well.

  • Nice job! This is better than the LoveNotes version.

  • I have a little red-haired boy too! :)

  • @wendys120 I do too! Stellar performance, Jason and Vance! Thank you for sharing your hearts!

  • Comment removed

  • Outstanding! I loved the earlier collab as well with the other two boys and have been hoping to see more of these father/son mentoring clips from your family! I think it is awesome Jason, you approached your dad and WANTED to do this project. Thanks for sharing your gift with us!

  • @Bigstarguy24 Key word: 'WANTED.' I admire y'all.  :)

  • You guys did amazing. 5 stars :)

  • You guys sound awesome, but maybe for the next one, could you have a little bit of expression? But besides that, you guys are awesome :D

  • C'mon, Vance. Write a book and share with us the grand way you parent! Man, you're the best.

  • Your boy has a great voice and excellent pitch! This is truly a blessing. I am reminded of that scripture that says "The Father and the Son are ONE!" I woke up the other day and discovered I had become my Father. He rests in Heaven so we shall meet again. Shalom! Thanks for this! It touched my heart in a deep place!

  • Great accapella!!! is that your own vocal arrange? :D well that is just awesome!!!

  • Great job! Would love to hear the kid sing this solo. he has a great voice!

  • Vance! your videos are the most relaxing videos on youtube...do you have a CD released??

  • First of all, I really enjoyed listening to this song. I had never heard it before so I went and listened to a few other versions, including Billy Joel's original. I have to tell you, this is by far my favorite. I listened to it about 7x. It is very simple and soothing.

    Jason, you did a great job. Your dad has a lot to give. Receive it. You 2 may have just inspired me to try a multitrack with my oldest daughter. Keep up the good work. I eagerly anticipate your next release.

  • Hi Vance & Jason,

    That was wonderful. Jason, you did a great job and it was a joy to listen.. I would like to hear more, and I encourage you. Suggestion for the 2 of you. Jason's voice is beautiful, but he is still young enough to be in a youthful boy's higher range. What about Jason doing all the parts to a song using the style of a Catholic "choir boys" choir? (I'm not Catholic, but the tones produced by a Catholic boys choir might fit his current voice for a full Multi-track piece..just him.

  • @acapellaman45 I, too, was thinking as you, and I am also not Catholic. And I was thinking that if he raised the key just a little bit, then he might also be able to reach the bass part by himself.

  • Beautiful!

  • @daniscool99 yeah you right! awesome vocal collabs.... Thousands thumbs up!!! :D

  • @daniscool99 Vance is my Band teacher's cousin... BOTH Y'ALL ROCK!!!

  • Vance, I've been watching you and the guys for years. And love the work. But this introducing and training kids puts you over the top. Thank you. Briggs

  • the kid goes to my school.

  • And if the whole great barbershop idea and perfect realization wasn't enough the deafening pause after "silence" nails the song hard and propels it to levels unheard. It's amaizing you lead your kids to music. I pray God blesses them with gifts to serve Him the best they can.

  • This is awesome! Congratulations on a great job done!

  • I love these songs...could I make a request? The old hymn, "In the Garden"..This is so comforting to listen to!

  • your boys really sing well, thank you!

  • I think he needs a LITTLE work on his tone (it's the right pitch I'm sure, just a little piercing or shaky at times). But he's still GREAT =D I wanna hear more ^_^

    And sad song, I really wish I didn't relate to it so well =/

  • this is about the 10th time in a row ive listened to this song now <3

  • I am glad you mentioned UnderAge/LoveNotes. Until now they had been the only ones I had heard that did this song justice in a barbershop arrangement. Now, there are two. Jason and you have done a wonderful job with this. I hope you both stick with it and I hope to hear more of Jason as he gets older and is able to hit the bass notes himself.

  • All I can say is WOW!

  • WOW! You know it's good when it brings a tear to your eye! Awesome job, Jason (and Dad too)!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • HEY VANCE!! just a request. could you do a multitrack cover for Thank you by Boyz II Men?? that would be awesome!! and btw this is one of the most beautiful pieces i have ever heard. and sung beautifully. Thanks and God Bless 

  • Thanks for the smile at bottom left, at the end! The song is so intense, I guess smiles in the middle wouldn't fit. But I think everyone wants Jason to have a happy face when he can!

  • So, is Jason Perry now the youngest YouTube™ Multitracker?

    (I’m defining “multitracker” here as a person who sings [or plays] two or more parts “simultaneously” in one video, so your previous Beach Boys “In My Room” video doesn’t count for your sons [though it does for you, since you sang two parts in it].)

  • Wow! This is amazing! You have a wonderful voice Jason,very nice! Like father,like son! You must be very proud, Vance

  • I am in love

  • Bravo guys, loved it! This was moving and well sung!

    @Jason: You've got a great voice, keep it up, man. I look forward to hearing you again soon!

    @Vance: You must be one proud Dad. It's wonderful you share your solid multitrack experience with your kids and make your family music available to people like me on the other side of the planet. ;-)

    Cheers,

    Julien

  • Wow...he has such a very nice voice! It's that kind of voice that makes me wish I was a tenor instead of a bass.

  • Absolutely wonderful! I am so proud of Jason, great job to you both.

  • Hey Vance,

    Congratulations, this is a very nice track. I'm very happy to hear one of your children again... he's really grown up since " in my room" . I wish I had that voice as i was in his age. It's really cool that you give him the possibility to produce such a good track .

    to Jason :

    Hey Jason , you are a really talented boy, and i'm sure we'll see much new tracks of you in futur. Go on !

    Best Regards René

  • This is awesome! :D

  • Fantastic!

  • their is only one word to find, for an german guy.... "einzigartig"

    love them

    greetings from germany,

    Marco

  • nice work !!

  • amazing voice, amazing work ! :)

  • The God of Heaven has put a song in your heart. Your Father is a great man. Keep the song in your heart and on your lips. Listen to your Dad, He will be your best friend and confidant! The Father and the son are one. You have excellent pitch - perfect! I have been in music for over 40 years now, you have an excellent voice. Keep Singing! You will bless many people with the song from your heart!

  • Wonderful! Congratulations Jason and Vance for an exceptional performance!

  • damn dude! your son is gonna be a killer in chorus with all this singing. Very well sung, guys. A+

  • Aw, c'mon Vance, Jason couldn't hack bass? Hahaha. Just kidding, man. Awesome job. You're blessed to have children who can share in your passions. :)

  • you can see at the boys eyes, in which frame he sings the lowest part hahahaha

  • I came back today to watch it again. It's that good!

  • Wow (OoO) ! ! ! So much talent in your family. Great performance, Vance and Jason!

  • Comment removed

  • Gingers rock.

  • Awesome! Becky (Bostick) Harris

  • Nice to see family involved Vance!.... Great job!. Jason, DEEP breath and tighten the diaphram, it'll help strengthen the only two "almost out of breath-kinda quivery notes.

    (Mr. Klausen my 7th grade music teacher taught me that). You still put me to shame though!!!! Awsome you guys! Thanks and God bless!!

  • This video is great!  I love Jesus.

  • Bravo!

  • Beautiful. Thank you. A lovely rendition of one of my favorite songs.

  • Awesomness!!!!!!!

  • Well done.

  • Jason, Vance ... COMPLETELY enjoyed this! Encore! (Please.)

  • Oh yes, you're right to be proud of him, he's done an awesome job!!!!!! Wonderful

  • OMG I want to work with you!!!!!!!

  • 1 word....AWESOME!!!!!!

    Vance; question: do the other 2 sons still sing too or just Jason now? [remembering the IN MY ROOM video with them].....this is going on my facebook page bud!

  • This just sent my "oh-shit!-o-meter™" off the charts!!
