So true 😂😂😂

[@arcweid7646]

XDD

[@SinnaDormz]

You mean aot?

[@TimKGrimes]

Maybe the best song ever written for a musical, originally sang by a very reluctant but beautifully effective Gene Wilder, now perfected in perpetuity by this amazing ensemble. So beautifully & magically done.

[@bananabro1010]

0:39 the way the "with a spin" swings itches the brain SO GOOD

[@Obilistic44]

Frr

[@imuawarriors]

Beautiful. Who cares about autotune. this is entertaining. props to Ben Bram. I wish I could give this a million likes.

[@ryanpatrick9240]

If you’re reading this congrats , you’ve found the best version ever recorded.

[@matthewmurdick]

My goodness - hats off to the performance (of course) but SUPER HATS OFF to Ben Bram and Tehillah Alphonso for that amazing arrangement! ❤❤❤❤❤!

[@hamlo7113]

LIKE IN A HEAVEN.

[@GunninRebel55]

Never seen so many jealous haters and followers in the comments. This was absolutely beautiful and I challenge any of you to do better and post it.

[@allisanr]

Hands down. My heart broke beautifully into pieces😢💙

[@cagdeorok]

the harmony and blending, mind-bending

[@colbyleary5919]

I've listened to this probably a hundred times over the years and realized I never commented. You're all soooo talented and your arranger is going places!

[@human-hz7jw]

ben bram! he actually helped start pentatonix, has won grammy/emmys, and has worked on pitch perfect and glee

[@deborahaguilar3825]

This made me cry because of how beautiful the harmonies are

[@albacastillo2020]

I cried because of the memories of my childhood .

[@sauce_aux]

Good lord, this is lovely.

[@rickjordon]

People should appreciate how good this arrangement is, obviously the performance is phenomenal, but before that, is the arrangement for a 17part harmony no less, the inclusion of the rhythm towards the end is just a touch of class. Absolute kudos to the individuals responsible for this fabulous arrangement.

[@JessieMcConkey-v8d]

lol 17 part harmony. there’s only 16 people and its at the most 8 in some sections

[@rickjordon]

@@JessieMcConkey-v8d whats your point, apart from the fact that I miscounted....do you think that this is simple arrangement ???....and when your not singing its called rests, and I'm sure the charts reflect that....don't appreciate the smart-arse sarcasm.....and whether they're singing the same part or not, charts still have to be created, but off course any accomplished musician would know that McDonkey!!!!

[@Donna-ff3ek]

It's magnificent harmony.

[@TimKGrimes]

@@rickjordon*McDonkey. Lol

[@Jeff-z1b]

Individualaliy coming together with a harmony that brings tears to your eyes.

[@Smpa_]

This is magical all people in all walks of life singing together as one...this is what we need in this crazy world we live in today. 🙌🙌🙌💯

[@daniLoves_u]

Goosebumps 😲😲😲

[@YouAreNotAlone648]

This is the best rendition of this song that I have heard

[@beingme._.eilonwy4571]

My girls from Citizen Queen and my fave guy from The Voice Jej are in it!!! YAAASSS!!!

[@markloren2133]

Autotuned sure, but pure entertainment, and beautiful singers all of them so talented. The harmony washed over me like a sticky wave. Now I'll go take a shower.

[@natsaij.g1942]

It’s not auto tune, it’s melodyne. Pitch correction and auto tune are two very different things.

[@nowalmart2146]

​@@natsaij.g1942same shit

[@Mmh.idk.boutthat]

​@@natsaij.g1942 VERY DIFFERENT.

[@kingzingo1784]

Perfect. This is how I imagined it in my head.

[@janemily2627]

Nobody has topped this performance to date. Most AMAZING version I've ever heard. The harmonies are over the top!

[@gravyp]

Apart from Gene Wilder.

[@Eme9009]

My jazz choir sang this a few years ago and it’s one of my favorite memories ❤

[@plantyt3246]

I’m about to do it with mine! I’m super excited

[@ayanna4148]

[@anitakeung4678]

this gave me chills! this is absolutely amazing good job!

[@bryanhayden371]

So well done! Beautiful harmonies and an absolutely spectacular crescendo at 2:15 point in song. Strong female lead at that point. Gave me chills.....

[@Lovemy60to70era]

One of my favorite songs done beautifully.❤

[@DarnThoseOranges]

this arrangement is so beautiful and always takes me into a void of nostalgia. i love it

[@justaspiral13]

You deserve more than just a couple hundred likes.

[@lindabell6638]

I love this song so much and you young people performed it beautifully! Bravo!!! 👍👏👏👏👏

[@AnthonyPay-uk7gw]

Love the way they did it, I cry every time, but beautiful

[@AndrewSmith-ys6tu]

This literally made my cry! The layers and harmony are the most perfect thing I've ever heard. I could never explain the way this song makes me feel. Thank you! Thank you!

[@enait9549]

[@crystalmorris5711]

I just found this today. This is the most beautiful rendition of this song I’ve ever heard. Pitch perfect! Flawless!

[@slickyjorj]

I absolutely love this tune. Beautiful arrangement.

[@madixstephens9203]

that touched the deepest part of my imagination

[@bryandecker1832]

I'm awestruck, weeping, and smiling at your perfection. Bravo for the arrangement and vocal crafting of one of the best covers of any song, ever. Period. Be proud of accomplishing a rarity... being the best at something. Pure imagination by SoCal VoCals and Ben/Tehillah's arrangement is PURE BLISS.

[@palewine]

One of my favorite versions of this song.

[@InuChrisFan]

I spot some Citizen Queen right here 😍😍

[@SisyphusQuit]

props to the sound guy working the mix!

[@steinwaygrands]

Wow!!!!

[@amidwest5847]

Good job SoCal!

[@seanbond8075]

Absolutely Well Done! Bravo! This is America! 💗💗💗

[@SeriousGuy-fu1on]

Is it posible to have auto tune in accapella?🤔😅

[@Letsmakemusic4]

its standard to use Melodyne with just about any pro album tune.

[@bbyboi_]

Ok…..um…….and?

[@The_Backman]

And?

[@StevoSwiss]

This was actually very likely sung by one guy and one girl, multiple times, and then with 50 hrs of adjustments we're made on a computer, until all notes were pitch perfect, all volumes meshed the way they were supposed to, and the length of notes was also adjusted. So essentially, 95% fake. But well arranged, and we'll acted. And then I bet this group can sing really well too, but they sound nothing like this.

[@DaroffApFire]

@@StevoSwiss Um... no Stevo. That isn't at all the case.

[@loveusm2002]

I play this as a lullaby for my son, its calming to him and me

[@peacemaker5609]

Absolutely beautiful! Bravo! This song has been underrated. Who would have known that it came from a song in a children’s movie some 50+ years ago?

[@jonniesantos]

A modern arrangement that’s understands the heart of the original. The pitch correction studio work is a little off putting, however the vocalists and their harmonies are velvety rich - I could listen to them all day. Beautiful!

[@emilioochoa9743]

Yes, you guys made this piece so nuanced!

[@gabrielnunez8504]

Playing this on a date for sure

[@Mark_B544]

Glad I stumbled onto this. Best version so far thanks. Ps forget about choreography as it’s your only flaw. We’re here purely for the great voices.

[@darrenserra316]

Fantastic. I listened to this over twenty times in one day. It is beautiful (props to Ben Bram) and inspiritional. wow. As a lifelong music teacher, I love to see the new generation find passion in the Arts. Brava and bravo. Mahalo for your efforts.

[@watchoutabomb5023]

for some reason i cant say anything is better than the original no matter how good this is but the og will forever top any attempt

[@bbyboi_]

Ok.

[@mhaas88]

“Pure Imagination” has always been one of my favorite songs. I read a lot of criticism in the comments about auto-tuning. I have to say, nobody blames a surgeon for using a tool! Even if it’s true, It sounds beautiful and represents the message, so why not enjoy it!

[@derby1263]

I normally have some long winded comment..but I think one word will say it all...WOW!!!

[@jeffrobeauxdean2625]

Since I started posting this video back in March/April it has gotten almost if not around 40,000 more views. I am brought to tears. "If you wanna change the world, there's nothing to it." You guys are incredibly awesome.

[@sportsreels1102]

when that beat came everything changes WOW!

[@michaelsantiago6887]

That was Beautiful…by Beautiful People!

[@ronm3245]

...and they had the WHOLE THING memorized!

[@manueldeterra5090]

OK I surrender. As a singer for over 75 years of experience, I thought that Voctave had achieved the summit of acapella harmony, then I heard this group.

[@TheParerajeanmichel]

Magnifique....

[@kimberlywitcher8243]

Touting the “work to be done” while presenting as the group of people who had spent

[@Toto-fo1pc]

I want to see watch this without the auto tune. Honestly I don't care if it sounds bad, "raw" voices are way more soothing

[@MOBROOKS]

Good job

[@listeningwatching]

AMEN. BEAUTIFUL. THANK YOU!!!🎶

[@g.clemente6361]

pure harmony, beautiful rendition

[@sos_skye3067]

I'm not crying *sniff*cuz of how beautiful this is *sniff sniff*you are.*sniff*😢

[@AuRevoirCPH47]

You humans sicken me

[@mariao.j663]

Beautiful....

[@bradmoegelin1823]

They never said they will not use auto tune, they re arranged the song, they didn't say they were just going to do an actual 100% Capella version of it

[@ChrisM-qo1jc]

it isnt autotuned

[@jon4766]

@@ChrisM-qo1jcit’s mixed and eq pretty good and they raised the basses to lay dat foundation people prolly think it’s auto tuned cuz they prolly singing in Just intonation and recorded this in the studio

[@RisaKukuh]

Just found this gem, and oh my God! I cannot stop praise the harmonies. You guys did a great job!!! Love

[@Koda_Crossing]

I think my pop group is going to be learning this song soon! Wish us luck!!

[@kkormanik]

Brilliant! Love the song, love your voices ❤

[@jennysilver8950]

Thank you for such a wonderful interpretation of this beautiful song. It’s been my favourite song since hearing Gene Wilder sing it.

[@ForeverBeach]

Great take on a timeless classic. A most enjoyable performance.

[@crunchy1414]

Everyone looks so cool and coordinated even though they aren’t wearing the same clothes❤️❤️❤️ also the singing is my life, heart, and soul very good my dude

[@Hoakaloa]

moved me to tears. and i would love to hear this totally acapella

Wow!!! Fantastic!!👏👏👏👏👏👏

Ladies and Gentleman, truly exquisite! Your sound proves the adage that music is the universal language……a group of multicultural singers and you sound as ONE! There is surely a lot we can all learn from this. 🥲
