  • Good Lord no, its not too fast at all. Kings Singers are the masters of this. I think that the contrast between the 2/2 and the 3/4 would be less effective if it was taken slower. This is a madrigal - not a Bach chorale..!

  • hehe up and down, up and down..... I love this Ambiguities..... :-)

    Hardest part of the song if you're bass. That "but after her lover" segment is a bitch to time.

  • This makes me want to throw up a rainbow

  • @Mrmagictrack

    This song is actually a popadom for just that.. Back then when this song was made, they couldn't put any explicit material in their songs, so they had to make it somewhat tongue in cheek. It is about two lovers and what they do when they are alone. :)

  • I kind of actually want to hear this faster...

  • @kekew1989 I think there are countertenors here though; a highly supported and vocalized falsetto.

  • Och this is heaven. Where's the picture from btw? it's really sweet :3

  • does anybody else think that "up and down" sounds a bit like popadom

  • our chorale group sang this and it's HARD! I respect the King's Singers now! :D

  • @95n96girl ha i didn't know that girl thanks

  • How is this shit?
