Matt Damon, Matisyahu & PS22 Chorus at ONEXONE Fundraiser!! "ONE DAY" & "NO ONE"

It was an honor to have the PS22 Chorus help raise the roof tonight with our old pal Matisyahu at the ONEXONE Fundraiser at The Capitale in NYC! The organization is sponsored by Academy Award-winner Matt Damon, who proved his cool by taking the time to come up to the chorus's green room to thank and hang with the kids just before they hit the stage! And as far as Matisyahu is concerned, Brianna sums it up best on the bus ride home. I don't think you could find a more humble, down-to-earth performer. Thanks to them and everyone at ONEXONE for giving our kids a night to remember! It was an honor to serve the cause! The kids really worked it out, giving a rousing performance, to say the least! And major props to Denise for her awesome soloing with Matis, and her beautiful intro of "No One" by Alicia Keys!

This is great! "Generous" is certainly correct. And for some reason, after watching the last part of the video, I was thinking "Shower the People" by James Taylor would be a good song for the PS 22 chorus......Just kidding!! Keep up the great work!

When I hear the beatbox start right before Matis appears I get cold chills... AHHH- Mazing

Matt Damon is one of my favorite actors, but here he happily reminds me that he is not untouchable, and that even he has bad hair days. Rock on, kids!

Damon makes me feel really uncomfortable in this video. But other than that, incredible.

@mont8311 Yes, it would be a great opportunity for a former student to return and sing the lead part, with the current students singing the backup vocals and harmony. Thanks!

@kjfitzgerald593 "shower the people" would be a lovely song for this chorus...
