The power of voices when they come together❤ ( HM Queen Mary )

[Hello-ig]

Music of my youth, angelic sound, where have all those years gone, times seemed simpler then, l
Miss those days.

[RickaramaTrama-lcys]

The World is a lot less Ugly while listening to this=So Beautiful~!!

[danrussell]

This was an amazing performance by very talented vocalists

[srbotana]

Sometimes the angels come and sing to the people

[Dana-fybg]

Beautiful performance. Have loved this song for many years. This is the first time hearing as an á cappella choral and it’s simply delightful. Thank you for this.

[lawrenceabeyta]

I love this song; my teacher had me adapt it for classical guitar. Another heavenly adaption, and I’m always so impressed with DR Koncerthuset’s creativity.

The playlist of these Danish choirs just keeps on getting longer and longer. I could listen to them all day and never get through my list of "favourites".

[rolfjosefspiegelhalter]

Det er sådan en smuk præstation. Med den første tone bragte det mig til tårer. Det lyder himmelsk med englestemmer. Det er som altid: Fantastisk

[richardgiem]

I've heard many versions . This is one of the best.

[FranciscoCastaneda-ixbw]

Encanto, dulzura, armonía, elegancia. La voz femenina resonancia del Alma. Un coro angelical para llorar de alegría. Y dirección varonil magistral. Mi admiración y mayor agradecimiento.

[LakshmananLM]

People rightly say this is an amazing performance, and I agree. Though not musically inclined, I think the greater credit goes to the arrangement. As usual, sublime..

[ShivelaMiddleSchoolBandBooster]

Love hearing the alto section featured with the melody!

[RickOshay...]

Why?... Whenever i hear these young ladies sing
my eyes get watery and stuff... Why?
Anyways here's the lyrics to this song...

Rows and floes of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes, and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away
I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes, and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way
But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day
I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life
At all
I've looked at life from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life
At all... Joni Mitchell

Beautiful rendition by a choir of a pop song.

[sgeulaicheapaodhan]

As another commentor aptly stated, Angelic. This is an absolutely beautiful rendition.

The singing is amazing, but so is the set design, arrangement and lighting.
