HeY, they were pretty good (: At first it was okay how they up-beat the song, but it sounded like they were just rushing. I liked the remix with beautiful girls although they could've done soooooo better. I think i would've liked the remix better if the beat boxing was a little louder & longer..... not too bad though (: good job.

That was pretty good! The guy who sang Beautiful Girls wasn't that bad, but did you notice that part of his eyebrows were shaved off? Okay anyways, back to the song. I thought it was cool how they mashed the two songs together. That totally reminds me of that Glee episode! The conductor must have worked really hard to put together a 100 + all boys choir! That's crazy! I still think it could've been better but the solos were good.
ReplyDeleteWow that was cool. I prefer the up beat sean kingston version but, this is okay too ^^ hahaha the begining guy made a face that was hilarious!! XD I liked that were not the only ones who have to wear a tie and uniform and have to sing haha. I give the first guy props; there were like choke kids doing the beat and the one guy was like singing really loud compared to the rest of the kids.
ReplyDeleteThe chorus was good, but I don't think that they should have mixed those two songs together. It sounded good, but they were quiet in some parts, and loud in the solos. It may be because there are a lot of young boys, and the ones who had the solos had the microphones. I don't think those songs should have been put together because Stand by Me sings about being with another no matter what, and Beautiful Girls sings about girls making men want to kill themselves. Those two songs wouldn't be on my list for mixing songs because they relate to each other so little.
ReplyDeleteThat was so awesome! It was cool how they mashed up two songs. They all sang very nicely and that one kid who was singing Stand By Me probably was the best out of the other people because the other people who sang solo weren't loud enough. But overall they were all great. (^_^)
ReplyDeleteI like the way they sound :) is this an all guy chorus? Oh thats really cool how they blended the two songs, it makes Stand By me...well a more fun song to listen to/sing. I liked how they had the one guy beat-boxing while the other guy was singing the lyrics of Beautiful Girls. The little boy who sang the last solo was pretty amazing for being so small in such a large choir and still louder than them. I really like how they combined those songs, they did it so well that if I hadn't heard ethier of those songs before I wouln't have known that they were separate songs.
ReplyDeleteI like this performance :)
