OLD SCHOOL and LOVING it.

[@hedgiehaven]

I preordered back in Nov or Dec. we got the CD today in the mail. We love it. Yes it is sad that we could not see what I am sure was a great ending do to no one on the cam. All I can say is the CD is worth the wait to get! My daughter is takin it in to have her Middle school choir view it!

[@wvseltzer]

This just proves the high quality, that the IU Music Dept produces, even if you don't major in music.

[@354ever]

FANTASTIC!!!!

[@Randy_Stine]

Yes, group founder and musical director Dan Ponce wrote this song, and is singing the solo.

[@Roni0517r]

I just can't get enough of you guys!!! Great, great, great!!

[@Randy_Stine]

The original group recorded three CDs. The first one was self-titled, the second one was called "Last Call", and the third album was "Live At Alumni Hall." They are available through the same website as the DVD.

[@serban031]

how can someone not like this

[@bigbbrendan]

I Love the use of "sing sing sing" in the song. Great song and absolutely awesome performance!

[@jlynne01]

I can't get enough of this song; it gets stuck in my head all day. This is one of my favorite tunes by them. I absolutely love the little swaying move they do. Normally, there's at least one part in a choir that bugs me, but every singer does an amazing job here! The tall tenor in the middle is my fave. ^_^

[@wendys120]

That was great, too! All of their stuff is great. I especially like that who ever took the video was far enough away from the audience to avoid all the piercing screams that wreck other groups' videos. Superior stuff here.

[@jennahilton8259]

I haven’t heard this song in 10 years easy. I didn’t I would ever hear it again, but here is it is!

[@Oceandreams705]

Holy Crap. Hearing guys sing is such a turn on for me. And this group is amazing!!

[@wheatieboy13]

incredible stuff - that bass rhythm is incredible

[@chrronictear]

LOVE.

[@middy3234]

Best a capella group EVERRRRRRR!!!!!!

[@junkguy23]

Straight No Chaser has a lot of good beats and good songs

[@Erisinia]

All of SNC are amazing, but I would just like to give props to Steve Morgan. In every video of them performing on KZbin he is totally into the music and gettin' down with his funky self. I love looking down the line to see what he's doing. XD So much love to you, Steve Morgan. You just keep on dancing.

[@GracefullyPantsless]

This gets stuck in my head all of the time!

[@believeland8]

perfect harmony keep it up!!

[@jgold932]

My older sister is an IU grad of 1998. I appreciate she went to IU, during that time period, simply due to SNC. Thanks Jori

[@maureenz33]

I have no words for how incredible this is. The solo is brilliant

[@cutelet99]

This song was stuck in my head for days !! But I like it.

[@dayton82]

I thought my high school acapella group was awesome, but these guys take the cake!

[@ibkei]

Oh my goodness! LOVE these guys!!!

[@AshiraMalka]

This is the first time I ever clapped for a video on KZbin!

[@Unh0lymuff1ns]

I think they should Record it and make available on iTunes! you guys rock.

[@0511kathy]

Positively AMAZING - I could listen to you guys sing ALL DAY!!!

[@Thorftw34]

One of the best themes ever...this is completely amazing!

[@perfectdevyil]

gosh the way you guys blend all your sounds together is SO CRAZY!!!! i love you guys. such an inspiration

[@candyboyer]

All I can say is I have NEW FAVORITE GROUP!!!

[@Snow20flake14]

Beautiful song. Can't wait to see them 4/25!!

[@omgafilangi]

Love these guys!

[@Acadian_Proud]

Just saw you in New Orleans and LOVE every minute. The couple sitting next to me had never heard of you before and went away firm believers!

[@angelfish22093]

how does this have less views than the Christmas stuff? This is the best I've heard of their stuff on youtube!

[@MAGICnewyork]

These dudes are AWESOME! See the video description to order the DVD (only a few thousand, so get one while you can!). Also Check out their "Teen Sensation Medley". Excellent stuff, and pretty funny with the dance steps too! I hope to see this stuff on PBS one day, as a featured concert about music in our education system. (Hey Charlie Rose, pull some strings and make it happen!)

[@erlliedhonna]

you guys are simply the best! looking forward to see you on the today show on the 22nd of this month! thank you for your music..truly ridiculous..utterly splendid!

[@Pr0fess0rSasquatch]

Lol was looking for the jazz standard "Straight No Chaser" but came up on this instead... Certainly not disappointed, this is awesome!

[@Randy_Stine]

Yes, group founder and musical director Dan Ponce wrote this song.

[@cavaliers60]

Saw the IU group this past week, and loved them! I love the fact that the college has a group as well as the original group. Allows more people to experience Straight No Chaser! I thought they were great! Still had the comedy that you all bring to your shows. I bet you are proud of them. :)

[@AlabamaAxeman]

I hope you guys add that cut to the first mainstream album....great song!

[@jcvoice2007]

This is such a fantastic song! So clever and complicated, I love it! You all do a wonderful job! You basses are simply fantastic... rock it solid! :D

[@reject2008]

Amazing arrangement. You guys have true talent like I haven't seen before. Major props.

[@AlohaDevil]

just awesome. I was stoked to see that your CD is 80 on Amazon Sales... fabulous for a holiday album and a group of this nature! Congrats on your success!

[@rbaleksandar]

Amazing. And I really love the bass voices. They make most of the background music. But you're all perfect! Keep singing ^^

[@Unh0lymuff1ns]

SNC should record this and make it available on iTunes!!!! it's awesome!

[@YukiMizu100]

[@hOoLeYhOoP19]

Wow! They rock!!! Come perform in Lancaster :D

[@wulzy300]

i love snc

[@Randy_Stine]

Yes, they won't take orders once they run out. That's why the pre-order option disappeared yesterday, before we decided to order more.

[@Randy_Stine]

We are on tour! :) Check our website for the dates!

[@rickyfan3956]

Man, they are OFF THA CHAIN!!!

[@Randy_Stine]

Yes, we are in NYC right now, recording; the new album should be out this July!

[@JayhawkJazzy]

this is quite entertaining...they are so good :)

[@funnylozr]

[@xoxokristinnxoxo]

indescribable

[@jawbone83]

these guys really make a cappella cool.

[@sazraz]

awesomeness...come over to britain!!!

[@airikatsuki7]

That was pure epicness

[@BIEDS4U]

This is a great DVD. It was an awesome concert to watch on video. I could have only imagined how great it would have been live. It is great sound for only being together for two years. Is this the second song that Dan won for best arrangement at the college championships. You guys never did mention the second song.

[@Randy_Stine]

Ghost Train is used in the opening credits of the DVD. However, it was not performed at this concert, which is why there are no clips of it.

[@Randy_Stine]

The album is available on iTunes, Amazon, and most local US stores.

[@AlvinSong2025]

thumbup whos listen to this video more than 5 times!!

[@graceletocq]

That's amazing - I love all your arrangments but this is fantastic! Good luck for the CD :D

[@TheLegoFan1]

You guys are good! I wish I was there when u all performed this... =D Just love this...it's one of my favs of your songs.

[@HorrorFrogPrincess]

Okay, but NOW, I want a SNC TV series.

[@Randy_Stine]

You may have read about Warner Music Group removing all of their artists' videos from KZbin. This has affected us as well, so our videos including the original '12 Days', 'Lion Sleeps Tonight', and 'This Is How We Do It' are no longer available here. Trust us, we are NOT happy about it! Instead you can see '12 Days' on our MySpace page. You can read about all of this in the news, just search Yahoo or Google about KZbin and WMG.

[@artwithanne]

this is such a fun song... :D

[@rickyfan3956]

STRAIGHT UP PUTTIN' IT DOWN!!!

[@Randy_Stine]

SNC's new CD, "Six Pack" is now available through the SNC website!

[@gamestop251]

UPLOADED ON MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

[@Randy_Stine]

Yes

[@Allykay95]

Love it! #Newringtone

[@kayper54]

Wow. They should compose MORE original music!

[@irishmama428]

I think there are only two basses. Randy is all the way to the left and Charlie is all the way to the right. Pure awesomeness.

[@Randy_Stine]

We'll be on the Today Show on December 22nd, 2008!

[@Randy_Stine]

Singing bass on the far left (stage right).

[@Niqa]

@mikado95 That means you're Randy! I'm a huge fan of yours :-) I LOVE your voice! :-)

[@kimberlyyu110]

Totally hot!

[@jillyj98]

I like the tall guy in the middle!

[@gmorales14]

These guys would win that new show "Sing Off" rather easily and make the other a capella groups look bad doing it.

[@wvoirol]

They are from IU....thats what we do...drink...but its really about staying with they music.....not using intrumentation... but song refers to drinking yes.. how you take a shot.....Straight...No Chaser

[@noscope342]

Is the group thinking of making a new CD soon? I would totally buy it.

[@Randy_Stine]

@SuperNinjaMan1 Yes, Randy & Charlie are the only basses.

[@krumz1]

I was the 1001 person to like this :).

[@Niqa]

@mikado95 That means you're Randy! :-)

[@ebear123456]

i love this song did you guys make it up yourselves?

[@irishmama428]

Oh, I see what you're talking about ilouieg12. That's one of the two guys who didn't continue, but I don't know his name. Randy, did this guy sing bass?

[@deetalks828]

where can i buy their album? they're so so cool!

[@AlabamaAxeman]

You're always going to have tonal discrepancies in a live performance, especially when you have 10 voices singing different parts using only monitors to hear themselves. Live performances are completely unforgiving, unlike studio cuts where you have countless "do overs". It's "one and done" when it comes to live performing and I think they do a great job. Remember too, back then it was just a hobby...now it's a career. They'll only get better!

[@twilight7979]

Once they're gone, will you stop accepting orders? Because it seems strange to me to ask for payment up front for an item that is out of stock ...

[@MusicAnnieMovies]

when did they go to IU, my mom graduated from there

[@cybertooth49]

There's a standard called Straight, No Chaser.

[@kittehvlr]

How'd you come up with thte name Straight No Chaser? Very Good =^.^=

[@1angel0777]

What's up? I can't see the video on how they got the group together again, it says there's a copyright claim by a third party...what's goin' on?

[@magyars4]

What songs will be on there? Any of them on youtube?

[@IiiiiStutter]

It's too catchy ;)

[@trusty345]

Do they have KZbin channel? If so, can anyone tell me it plz?

[@Judangenbrangen]

Is there a studio version of this song?

[@kkrizzz]

It's super annoyiong i know.... But seeing that this is from a whole concert they show only the ppl that are main singers seeing that you will see the others later on.. I hope xD
