  • Holy crap Eddie!!! I didn't realize this was on here and it just popped up and made my day... I freaking miss this choir. One of the best musical moments of my life so far. Thanks for posting it man!

  • hell yeah man...ive been meaning to post more......

  • This is the best performance of this song that I have heard so far. The acoustics are amazing. Love it.

  • Hey thanks. Would love to do it again...

  • You guys have a very nice sound! I performed here with my school's choir last summer! How did you guys get to perform this piece? They told us when we arrived that we could not perform any secular pieces!

  • Thanks a lot--I'm not sure about the requisites on secular music at this cathedral or how we surpassed them (if any), but we sang a mixture or sacred and secular songs there without any problem, as far as I know.

  • you guys make a lovely sound in this large accoustic , but i do think it's too fast , it needs more 'room'

    lovely ending , dying away - as it ought

  • Very good tone and diction, I think it went a bit too fast, though. Take your time with it! Sleep is amazing.

  • Great performance but the flow feels wrong. Doesn't do the piece justice.

  • @jacobcarmack When I saw the title and then Cathedral...I knew it had to be good!

  • Great sound, but that "beeping" in the background is irritating me :P

  • i hate these youtube comments on performances oh this and this isnt right musically...not like this is an interpretation or something

  • I love this song!! 

  • Wow! I didn't know this was up! What a neat memory! As for those that find the tempo too fast, I would say that it seems a refreshing tempo for a song that sinks many times into a lackluster melancholy.

  • @loki1983msu So cool! I never knew this was here!!! Either that or I'd forgotten.... Good times! Great memories!

  • @loki1983msu So cool! I never knew this was here!!! Either that or I'd forgotten.... Good times! Great memories!
