Choir! Choir! Choir! sings James Taylor - Shower The People

This Saturday we got together in Toronto to sing James Taylor's EPIC beauty Shower The People + raise money for 25 Days Of Charity! Charity! Charity! It's our annual campaign to raise funds for 25 incredible organizations (big + small).
Check them all out in our beautiful advent calender at choirchoirchoir... - it's a community of charities who work hard to make the world a better place. Donations are collected in one fund + will be equally distributed to all 25.
Thank you for a great year. It was beyond challenging but we refuse to stop seeing the beauty, especially when we all come together for good.
XOXO Happy Holidays, we celebrate it all with you. XOXO

The guitarist made this. He sounds similar to James. What a wonderful voice.

I have come back here dozens of times to wallow in the love of this volunteer group of singers. THIS is the reason the internet was invented. THIS is an example for every community in every country to follow. THIS is what humans should be doing to maximize the very short time we all have on this earth.

[@toyotasupra6731]

The guitarist...... WOW he has a fine voice too ! first time i've heard him sing a lead like that... good work people.

Beautiful singing voice by the guitarist!

I've binge watching C!C!C!. My spirits needed a lift... turns out you guys do a great job of it! 46 of 275. This is one of my favorites. James Taylor has pulled me through a lot of darkness and you guys really turned it up a notch!

Fantastic job. Can't ever go wrong with a JT song. The master singer/songwriter.

[@deborah5568]

Wow this is my favorite arrangement thus far! Love the lead vocalist such beautiful voices, but his is absolutely the cherry on the top!

[@cathyjane8102]

Simply beautiful, poignant, and as relevant as it was when James first released it in 1976. Thank you for sharing your exquisite rendition of a Taylor masterpiece.

Remarkable piece. Audience participation as a choir was truly superb

[@patskar4977]

Outstanding. This might be my favorite so far.

[@oneday458]

The guitarist is amazing. Love the way he plays for group singing without losing the integrity of the original or well known version of the song. He can sing too.

[@bootsieragansings]

You are all shining your light. Blessings and thank You!

[@sallyintucson]

I love all of these but this was my favorite. 😊

[@manonwilliams4431]

Daveed has the voice of an angel!

[@ez87gn56]

That guy can sing !

[@richardwickman3429]

Okay America, time to shower each other with love. As we used to say, "give love a chance". You might be surprised that it feels better than hate. Has hate made anyone happy? Also, why do Canadians always seem so much happier than Americans (iInteresting topic). Maybe we need more rally's where we sing songs to each other instead yelling insults at each other. When we come out of this pandemic, let's try being better people, a better country and a better friend. We all miss our old life, but we have to pull together.

[@kaymulcaster7821]

James must be so proud to hear this. This song only works if people sing like they “mean it”, which these people certainly did. Bravo!

[@leekosmin8788]

Lovely! should be the official world anthem right now. Best Wishes from London. Stay safe.

Wonderful performance, and thanks for choosing this song. It brings back so many memories of a long road trip I took - one that changed my life - in 1976.

I just stumbled across this again, as I am cleaning up way too many old emails. I loved seeing some of the singers that I met when I had the good fortune to come and visit and sing with y'all in 2018. I just have to say that this is an amazing arrangement, Daveed's voice has never sounded better and I got chills listening and watching this. WELL DONE!

[@coachjohnodea490]

Thank you so much Choir Choir Choir for making all our lives so much better

[@hawkeye1836]

Loop-Loop-Loop. You, Ladies and Gentlemen just made my day. Being an avid JT fan for, OH ! ah few years now, I needed to hear one of my "Pump The Love" songs, today. I've been immersed in everything JT today, all afternoon. I ran across you guys, and I couldn't be happier I stopped to give ya ah try. You "ALL" sounds so Beautiful, when this song is sung with real feeling, it'll bring ah tear to your eye, if you're still human. Thank-You so much for doing this song, and for posting it. Bless each of you with, Love-Love-Love and sunshine, yea. 💕 p.s. Keep the guitarist, plays great, sings even better.

[@coachjohnodea490]

Every time I've listened to JT sing this song it produces a little cry in me. Just listened to the Choir version and watched the joyful faces of those singing. Lots of cry because I realized I have spent my life protecting myself from getting hurt and didn't join in showering people with love. Too hesitant to do so. Thank you JT and Choir.
