Jul 7, 2008 - Other than that, it's a pretty solid show choir. Wish I had that many guys in my program...

Jul 7, 2008 - when you search show choir in youtube, this is one of the first things that comes up. I just think that's a really good thing. lol. cus if some sucky show choir popped up, no one would ever give show choir a second glance. I LOVE these guys.

spikssssss Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - you should be ashamed of saying that.

dhood62 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - i am so sorry i do not even remember typing this everyone

cootmittens Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - that is ridiculous. how is it even possible to get that good. i can explain how good that is

js08guyjs Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - that's the best example of ruining a good song i have ever been exposed to!keep up the great work!

js08guyjs Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - "show choir" is a stupid concept in general.

Babybluebabe17 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - this is the best show choir I have seen on utube.Out of manyyyyyy.Ugh.This is the most solid I have seen.I have sang for 10 years, and the balance and blend and evrything was awesome!

Jul 7, 2008 - You suck, show choir is not stupid, Bitch!

js08guyjs Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - i agree with dhood62, whether they remember typing it or not. even though their grammar is horrible.

js08guyjs Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - ok, maybe all "show choir" (ugh i even hate to type it) isn't stupid, but this definitely is. this is the opposite of real art. it's ruining a piece of music.

youreatoolbox Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - good thing you dont sublimate your own intellectual ineptitude by endorsing a the butchering of innocent music into 40 second interludes between attempts at "dancing", or put short, its a good thing your in show choir, tool.

utterbs Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - as a professional musician, and ardent yes fan, ive got to type that this is the worst abomination of musical interpretation that ive ever seen.this video represents a concept which makes a mockery of yes music, and choir as well. the only thing i can say about this repulsive piece of rubbish, is that its provided a great amount of humor to my fellow musicians, and a sad commentary about what musical performance has become.

If Jon understands, u move on too! Nice initiative by u the choir!

ryanphelps1 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Oh lord. Make it stop. Please make it stop. This is the dumbest thing I have ever seen.

RRRsidelover23 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Do you guys know that this show choir and THIS song got 2nd at nationals? Obviously it's good enough to place at nationals

cantstopochocinco Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Haha I can't believe Phil Seleskie actually did this. HAHAHAHAHAHA

darkheartagram Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - I hope Jon Anderson never sees this.

js08guyjs Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - no member of Yes deserves to be exposed to this.on a seperate note, unrelated to "show choir"------ive recently decided that "the revealing science of god" is my favorite song on "tales from topographic oceans"

onefjefaerts Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - NOW WE ALL want to know what YES would think of THIS
