Libera Sanctus Concert Of Hope NYC April 20 2008

[danderomy]

The sun was killing the lovely kids.... =_=

[sunshinegrateful]

Just beautiful, isn't it?! Is Thomas Cole on the left side of Joe Snelling?

[pipesitothebest]

es ben philip 1:01

[LibertyFreedom1995]

Is Joe beside Zack Lokett?

[sunshinegrateful]

@LibertyFreedom1995 Yes, Joe is on the left of Zack. Oh I miss half of this bunch and I'm glad the rest are still in Libera (I also like all the current members too) :-). The only one who I can't name is the boy on the left of Joe, who knows? Thanks

[UseTheLoo]

I was there. This sounds so beautiful live that I cried...and then when everyone was trying to get out of the stadium, these same boys with the angelic voices were saying, "Just push them!" to get past my family. LOL. No joke.

[footballgirl4ever12]

Absolutly amazing!!!! I'm so glad that the brightness of the sun didn't take away from their amazing singing! Wow, Tom sure nailed those top notes at the end :)

[Apink420]

april 20th is my b-day !!!

[Apink420]

april 20th is my b-day!!!!!

[lolz989]

they sing it better than phantom regiment played it on drum corps finals in 2003 they got 3rd

[badlongon]

Tom's beautiful treble voice will be missed. I hope they can sing again for the Pope when he visits England this year. Their music can take the soul up close to heaven!

[phanggrl]

Tom is leaving Libera, when was it officially announced?

[Jamie7466]

Does anyone know who the boy at 1:58 is?

[Snelling06]

Yes thats Flynn Marks,when he first started!x

Hope this helps!xox

[MultiBeautiful12]

no i dont

[Snelling06]

wow Libera did a great perfomances here as they do for all performances...Joe is shorter than Zak it was the other way round in 2007!x

[priest008]

Wonderful, but why are they giving their back to his Holiness, very disrespectful who ever set them up that way, and should have placed them facing His holiness.

[shinri1]

This was before the Pope arrived. They are preparing for his arrival in the background.

[priest008]

oh sorry..... that's a waste! why didn't they wait for the Pope it would have made more sense!

[xxx00096]

wow..cool video..

josh and tom..

haha..

likes it very much!!

[akiisfo]

it`s beatiful..|

[smarfdreft]

libera , Era , Enya.. is the best

[rosebud107123]

omg everyones so old i cant believe it lol but tom is still really good with his solo near the end

[xstrikezerox]

i'm guessing it was really bright that day? lol. tom is my personal favorite, he has a lot of solos =]

[mrongos2008]

if you guys pause it at 2:47, who's in the right side?

[mayaculpacuppa]

If you mean at Liam's right side, that's Joe Snelling. The boy who sings the intro of Salva. But if you mean at the viewer's right side, that's Tiernan. He's also in the Holland concert.

[0000000hhhhhhh]

i think he is Tiarnon Branson (2:47)

[mrongos2008]

why did they close their eye? They're look weird with that face!

[IloveGod103]

It is very bright there. haha(:

[5botball]

because it is very bright thats what happens when everything is white and you are outside

[Robiantobarus]

love u all!!!!!!! I really enjoy your performance, but here look that u guys are very very tired. I hove you all anjoy to sing as I enjoy to hear your amazing talent performance

[matthew16yo]

Sanctus is my favorite song forever.

*** LIBERA FoReVeR ***

*** TOM CULLY FoReVeR***

[chuckler1]

Wonderful....

[xiaoinaboat]

oh...they all felt uncomfortable, closing their eyes while singing...hahah

[choral26]

Do they join competitions?

[Libera36]

In February 2007 they competed on BBC's When Will I Be Famous (and won, one week!), but that is the only "competition" they have been on!

[pochamapiplup95]

who's the boy at 1:01? between liam and one boy?

i <3 libera!

[shinri1]

"mini" Ben Philipp

[UseTheLoo]

I was at the stadium...I cried when they performed this. It was beautiful.

[Scheuermann]

Do you know the other 3 songs Libera sang at Yankee Stadium? Thanks; Bill

[UseTheLoo]

I wish I could help you there, but I had been awake since 5:00, so I was falling asleep for the rest of the concert =( lol.

[bakhaug]

LOL at 3:19 it looks like the priest is rubbing that bald guy in front of him:P

[orducks]

What wrong with Edward at 1:21? He's my favorite of the group. Does anyone know if Michael Horncastle was there? I hope he is still with them. These kids are truly gifted.

[paracletelux]

The lights were really, really bright and he is struggling to keep his eyes open. Everyone is squinting, especially the boys with light eyes.

[pianogurl23]

yea, the boys with dark eyes coped really well with the lights!! poor ed and it liam struggling with his eyes

[paracletelux]

Oh, and Michael H. is still with the group, he just didn't come to the US because of school commitments.

[irdin]

can someone see joe snelling somewhere? i´m not sure but i think he´s next to zack. Or am i wrong?

[Libera36]

Yes, thats Joe between Zack and Tom Cole!! I love his new haircut, it makes him look a lot older!!

[cclc312002]

He's at the 2:11 and 2:53 mark...it's just the hair.lol.

[Snelling06]

No your right hes just ot longer hair hes between Tom cole n Za lockett!x

Hope this helps!x

[ecrira4u]

Wow, I missed something very special and wonderful that day. And how blessed they were to be there. Thanks for posting!

[kpslim]

if you pause it at 0:55, what's the 3rd boy on the right's name?

[paracletelux]

Zack Lockett

[kpslim]

is Jonathon Barrington on there? He's in my class... but never got round to asking...

[shinri1]

He's there, although you don't get a good shot of him. Pause it at 2:30 and he's in the top left corner behind the "live" banner, or at 2:49 he's at the top of the frame.

[kpslim]

oh yh! Thanks very much!

[miguelusamex]

I would love for them to visit Chicago, I'd like to have them in my city.

[miguelusamex]

oh, that's great to hear, I don't have as much information as you do, are you a close friend? I tried to add him as my friend in myspace, but he hasn't answered yet.

[miguelusamex]

Iam afraid micheal horncastle is getting too old, he is 16 now.

[shinri1]

Not true, he turned 15 last February, and is still a member of Libera. He wasn't on the US tour due to school exams.

[rynclint26]

where is micheal horncastle?

how about jacob woods?

Are they still member of Libera?

[shinri1]

Michael Horncastle was not on the US tour because of school exams. Jakob Wood is in there, you just don't get a good shot of him. Both are still in Libera.

[phillipo987]

the boy at 1:59 is ma lil bros best m8

[Scheuermann]

phillipo; That boy is new to me. He must be one of the two 9 year olds that travelled with Libera for the first time. He stepped forward and introduced the last song at the concert at Riverside. When through he said

"Goodby". He was so endearing. Bill

[Libera36]

Thats Flynn Marks! He seems like a very nice little boy!!

[dalevelez2828]

Hello.....these kids are all Anglican (Church of England). Surprising, since the Pope does not recognize them as even being Christians. Frankly, probably one of the best boy choirs these days.

[Scheuermann]

The boys of Libera belong to several religions including Anglican, Catholic and Protestant. No affiliation at all with the Anglican Church or any other for that matter.Very few of their songs are even of a religious nature. Also the pope DOES recognize Anglicans as christion and Libera is not PROBABLY the best, they ARE by far the best boy group, not choir, on the music scene today. Bill

[dalevelez2828]

Gee, Most of the songs in their CDs are about God, Jesus, etc. I would call that being religious. Libera is formed by kids from the St. Phillip's Anglican church in South London. That sounds very Anglican (and good !) to me.

[wimbourne2007]

Thanks for this! It looks like the boys had a terrible time with the brightness! They did really well.

[DDRyder]

Amazing live performance by libera once again! nice to see how so many people get to enjoy Libera's beautiful performance.

[NewDawnAugust]

thats ALL the applause they got?!?!?! and tell me HOW, just HOW can you eat french fries and hot dogs when your witnessing heaven-sent angels giving you a piece of what heaven sounds like??!?!?!?!?! srry, but i just find that surprising, and a little bit outragious. bear with me. =/

[Scheuermann]

New Dawn; I agree with you but keep in mind the people in the stand had already been there for 3 hours, had seen & heard Libera twice before this performance and the acoustics left a lot to be desired. French fries or not a lot of people enjoyed Libera judging by the favorable comments here & on their own Web Site guestbook. Bill

[NewDawnAugust]

*sigh* i kno your right. Sorry. Just that during the Byham concert, someone around where i was sitting has M&Ms and you could hear i perfectly, so im a little...not over it yet, put it that way. =P but anyway, sorry. =)

[DDRyder]

btw some lady was clearly on a cell phone at the end of the video when ppl are applauding. that's more appalling to see than ppl eating food.

[NewDawnAugust]

oh yea! i didnt notice that. at least your sorta listening when ur eating.....=P

[hunter1989de]

I can´t wait for their concert on May 11th in London!!!

[picardythirds]

thanks so much for posting! I love libera. Ed's hair seems to be getting really big :)

[BRIDRO]

if i was to die and goto heaven i would like assume the angels would look and sound such as this group. truly amazing!!!

[klipsch3]

Yes luv you just keep stuffing your face with fries, while the most talented singing kids group in the world provide you with some background music.

[ZdPhoenix]

LOL I was thinking something like that too :D

[PennyLanePink]

I was hoping the "pig" would choke...

[Bronxfan]

I was there yesterday and these young men were extraordinary!

[Scheuermann]

Hard to believe I had just talked to each of these boys only 2 days before at Riverside. They could be the boys that live next door to you and have little idea how remarkable they sound and how much pleasure they bring to others. They have never sung to 60 thousand people. Go out and buy their CDs & DVD so they can travel more.  Bill

[ellybelly12]

HEY!

SO I JUST READ UR COMMENT AND I THINK THAT IT IS AMAZING WHAT THEY CAN DO AND WHERE YOU SAID "They coudld be the boys that live next door to you"

wel i acttuall no one of them do you no the boy called flynn

please reply back

bye !!

[Scheuermann]

ellybelly12; I talked with most of the boys after the concert. Tom,Josh,Ben,Sam,Ed,Liam & others.May have talked with Flynn but don't remember. Is he one of the 9 year olds that travelled for the first time? Did he enjoy himself or get homesick? We sure enjoyed the visit and would love to have them back. Bill

[ellybelly12]

Aww Thats nice lol

and yes he was the boy who traveled the frist tym and he was 9 but i dnt think he got home sick but his mum missed him tho lol

he is reall sweet boy

did u get autographs?

[nickylibera]

WOAH COOL!! Oh I LOVE LIBERA!!! Thanks for the vid!

[RonanADunne]

Did the Pope beat the Yankees?

"Are you saying that Jesus Christ couldn't hit a curve ball?!" Major League

LOL

This was a slightly larger venue than Harrogate!

[evolutionboi]

Surely, the Pope beat the Yankees, as we all see no one showed up not even one of them. But he is Holy man this is his day & Libera's day to offer songs to him. This is more than Harrogate & showed around the globe.

[ajmychick3]

umm were did u find this because i was looking for young peoples chorus and couldnt find it

[shinri1]

I'm not sure what you mean. It was on TV yesterday. The clock on the banner shows the exact time.

[ajmychick3]

umm i know i sang with the chorus i mean how did u obtain the video did u download it from some where??

[shinri1]

No, I recorded it live on a DVR directly from NY1.

Which chorus did you sing in?

[ajmychick3]

Young Peoples Chorus Of NY

[Dudidamu]

a grat perform, but where was michael

[shinri1]

Michael Horncastle was not on the US tour. Not sure why.

[evolutionboi]

Michael wasn't able to be in the U.S. concert due to a school transfer, so I believe he decides no to go I bet his busy now with his school doing the right way.

CHINO

[Dudidamu]

where is michael

[VivaYoungTalent]

Thank you so much for capturing this. This one is definitely the keeper.

[Cliffina1419]

Shinri, thank you for sharing ~

Like I mentioned in another channel, I was so pleasantly surprised to see them on my TV screen for this Yankee Stadium Concert of Hope.

Brought great consolation to me for missing their performance at NYC Riverside Church last Thursday.

[shinri1]

Thanks!

I was lucky enough to have been at the Riverside Church concert.

[theatom2000]

We see the new faces, new boys, 7 and 9 years.

[shinri1]

Yup, Kavana Crossley, Flynn Marks, and James Threadgill are the newest members who were on the US tour.

[theatom2000]

Oh, it's 3. wow, excellent. Thank's for this precision.

[shinri1]

James has actually been with the group for a while, we just haven't seen much of him before.

[paracletelux]

Yep! I chatted with him back in January '07.

[pookerville]

Thank you for uploading the complete version! Is it possible that you can get other videos of the Concert for Hope uploaded? I'd like to see some of the other performers, too.

[shinri1]

Sorry, this is the only part I recorded.

[evolutionboi]

Shinri this is awesome thank you so much, I love seeing them perform. I was there in their Pittsburgh concert. Awesome # 1

Libera.

They just gave all their best & talents to show the world who they really are I like them so much.
