*flist rubs its eyes* Yes, it's me, posting to my journal.

In a desperate effort to locate some holiday spirit, I dove into Youtube today. I'm really excited about the season premiere of The Sing Off Monday night, so I started there.

I love a cappella music, so The Sing Off felt like it was made for me. Ben Folds is magic,, Shawn Stockman (Boyz 2 Men ( Read more... )

bite me, tv, glee, a cappella, nsync, music

Kaprin mentioned them already but I love Straight No Chaser. I happen to really like their version of one of my favorite Christmas songs.

I love them too. I actually hoped you guys who know them better would come and post some of their stuff. Thanks! This is fantastic.

See downthread for something funny by them...

So I love this version of Blackbird by the University of California Men's Octet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkaToqoVj7k&feature=related

I also love these guys. Because they are funny and talented.

Oh, the Bad Romance is great too. I've seen that one before. :) But now I REALLY need to go to bed. Good night! And hope you had a Happy Birthday!! :)

DUDE THEY JUST SANG THIS ON THE SING-OFF. Did you see??

gatsbyfan December 7 2010, 02:17:30 UTC

NOOOOO!

I completely forgot it was on tonight. And dumb DVR is already recording things. I really really hope YouTube finds it. And now I need to program the DVR to grab this show.

Damn, girl!

I knew I was forgetting somebody...thank you! They are so awesome.

marymary December 6 2010, 16:13:59 UTC

OMG Honey Pie is so great! I'd never seen that before.

gatsbyfan December 6 2010, 17:31:32 UTC

I LOVE their Little Drummer Boy!

Now I must flee this thread before I get sucked into another hour of YouTube.

For those who mentioned Straight No Chaser...this is not their best performance (nor is it a great vid) but it's SO much fun.

gatsbyfan December 6 2010, 16:52:36 UTC

They are so cute. You can just tell that seeing them in concert would be a blast.

I have a friend who was a Whiffenpoof while in college. Apparently, he was too nervous on their behalf to watch them himself tonight...and had to ask for updates as to their performance via Facebook. :)

They were amazing!!! They sang Grace Kelly, the mere fact of which nearly killed me on the spot.

This is as much as is up right now. You could link him if he isn't hooked up already. :)
