Continuing on with my celebration of Handel's Messiah, this week I'm going to feature three very different versions of the Hallelujah Chorus. Here's the first one:
Wouldn't you love to have been part of this? I would!
This 2010 video is the most viewed flash mob video of all time -- it has received almost 40 million views.
i love this! where is sean quigley this year? did he do another video?
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I saw your title of this post, I was going to say that I would LOVE to be in a flash mob like this and I bet that YOU would to. Then, I read your post here...and I was right!
ReplyDeleteYou know that I am one of those MILLIONS who have seen this already, right? ;-)
Yes... some flash mobs are sort of lame but this one was wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWonderful!!!
ReplyDeleteI would have loved seeing that in person...wonderful!!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!! I cannot believe how many hits!! It just goes to show where people's hearts are this season.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing!
Very moving, that would have been incredible to experience! I noticed a few people wiping away tears :)
ReplyDeleteThis was a great flash mob!!! I wonder if there will ever be one at the Casa?
ReplyDeleteI adore Handel's Messiah and this was such a gift. OK, so maybe there is a reason for leaving the house every now and then. Beautiful, thank you Debra!
ReplyDeleteThat was beautiful! I would have loved to have been there and the joy and delight on people's faces showed they also appreciated the beauty of the Messiah.
ReplyDeleteI would if only could sing. This is so beautiful...
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome! I wonder how many people planned that and how many just joined in?
ReplyDeleteI get goosebumps every time I hear that song! The WSO is doing the Messiah this weekend and we thought we'd take it in, but at $83 a ticket times 3, um, no, not this year!
ReplyDeletethey did a nice job
ReplyDelete*sigh*
ReplyDeleteHey, I blogged about the very same thing last year:

I'd like to know who was taking all those pictures of the shoppers...creeps me out that someone is photographing all the time...
ReplyDeleteso fecking cool
ReplyDeleteThis is amazing and I think it should happen more often ;o)
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely. The people involved have incredible voices. (As a vocalist, this is one of the really fun songs to sing.)
ReplyDeleteOMG!!!! This is AWESOME!!!
ReplyDeletePeople's faces just light up.
ReplyDeleteI love this! I wish this would happen one time where I am; I think I'd be quite overwhelmed!
ReplyDeleteI loved this! People I didn't expect to start singing joined in and it was outstanding!!! I love how you're all Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice gift to a bunch of worn out shoppers. I would bet they were all rejuvenated after this performance!
ReplyDeleteHey, by co-incidence I have to go to Welland this afternoon. Maybe I'll drop into the Mall and see if they are going to repeat this wonderful experience!!!
ReplyDeleteThat makes me well up, it's so wonderful!
