The original was life changing. This did it a second time.

[@rowanvocals]

I love how at 2:44 The bass comes in. This is such smart arranging. Up until that point the soloist lines are so mellow, and then the bass comes in and acts like his subconscious and tells the soloist that it's OK to grieve. Then the soloist just pours it all out with a ton of heart and Rasp. Amazing arrangement and performance Melodores!

[@Jorge-ti4kf]

The audio mixing in this still blows me away

[@yougurthPL]

It has been 3 years since I've discovered this choir cover. I haven't stopped listening to this. I can't even describe what this arrangement does to me. I adore!

[@benediktheisinger5737]

The guy that chimes in at 2:44, I want to hear more of him

[@Onepeg]

Guys I gotta say I just discovered this thanks to a good friend, and I can't stop listening. Amazing, amazing job. I've been singing for a VERY long time, and the control you all show is incredible. Your live sound engineer is worth every penny as well. Beautiful capture. Well done.

That soloist isn't just singing. He's acting. He treats the lyrics like it's a scene and he's delivering the emotions of the lines.

[@KM-us1nc]

Bro shut up lmao. He's singing. It's not Saving Private Ryan. hahahahah

[@timsarai]

[@gabriusv]

Nor'easter's 2017 ICCA set also has Creeks in it, and I think it's worth a listen

[@joshstevensalinas2077]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5_Uop6YppuCfNE this good. But I have to give it to the Nor'easters. its more impactful and closer to the original version.

[@TheGreaterGoat]

[@OkayMann]

Thanks!

[@drfdwf392]

Finally a decent and actual good choir arrangement of the song. So many of the others sound like they just turned the song into a choir with little arrangement. Which doesn't sound good because the original song itself is phenomenal. Now this is how you'd make the song work on a choir. Your subtle slower BPM, the smoother and more relaxed vocals, and the simple and minimalist overall arrangement are is what makes this work better than the other choir performances of this. Good work everyone. It's just that the main voice's movements or physical act on stage is kinda disturbing. I mean if you really feel what the song means or even suggests you won't act like a model shoving your hair and putting your hands in your pocket. That's an act of someone on stage who wants to show off and not to tell the story of the song. Great vocals but less showing off and let the feelings of the song show without your additional saturation in the future if possible. Anyway, Keep singing everyone!

[@houralghasham]

good, but where is the another guys???

[@PuffinMaster86]

Probably graduated

[@levimiller8006]

Better than the original. Best cover for the song. Zero argument against it

[@levimiller8006]

@IIIffid 404 the original is 100% tube auto tuned and doesn’t sound good at all

[@pipermohring]

I want the soloist to sing me to sleep aksjdjskdjjsksdj
