This was the most-watched video worldwide on BestArts. We hope viewers on BestArtsFilm will enjoy it just as much.
"Sister Act 2: Back In the Habit" was a somewhat predictable 1993 movie - but with many amazing musical performances. This video includes some of the best music from the film, emphasizing student performances. All of these songs are great:
0:00 His Eye Is On The Sparrow - Tanya Blount
0:30 His Eye Is On The Sparrow - Lauryn Hill and Tanya Blount
1:15 Oh, Happy Day - Ryan Toby, soloist
3:22 Dancing In The Street - Whoopi Goldberg
4:30 Lord, Send A Revival - The Iris Choir, soloist unknown
5:23 Joyful, Joyful - Lauryn Hill, soloist
Available on the 1993 DVD "Sister Act 2: Back In The Habit."
Tanya Blount, Lauryn Hill and Ryan Toby give astonishingly good performances. Lauryn Hill, who was 18 in this film, has built a very successful musical career.
Ryan Toby was 15 when this movie was filmed. His solo in "Oh, Happy Day" was particularly memorable for the high note at 3:01. This E6+ is a rare achievement from a man. Wikipedia has an interesting article on the whistle register (above falsetto) that he used to produce this note. Ryan is currently a successful songwriter living in Atlanta.
This movie also has some of the best closing credits ever. Sung to the tune of "Aint No Mountain High Enough", http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmRf5agvY3A
