This children's chorus from New York has moved me incredibly. I watch the faces of the kids as they sing and you can totally see that they are so passionate about their music. The legion fans include Ashton Kutcher, David Hasslehoff, Tori Amos, Perez Hilton and Stevie Nicks ... among others.

Please, please, please, let these kids be a reminder of just how valuable arts are important to our public schools.

My favorite videos are as follows:

Don't Stop Believing (Journey)

Eye of the Tiger (Survivor)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IL0aDXekfyM

Landslide (Fleetwood Mac)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2p5augniQA
Stevie Nicks has reported to have cried hearing this ...

Don't Dream It's Over (Crowded House)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LutJSqspl4w

Oh hell, go check out all their videos ... everything they touch turns to Gold!

Wow, how cool! They've got a great sound, and you can tell that they are feeling the music and the meaning of the words, not just singing. Thanks for posting this.

Wombat, I think you've just met your future competition! What a talented and enthusiastic group of kids, and what a great teacher, too.

Competition? Heck no! We'll recruit them as new members!
