True Colors - Camden Voices (self-isolation/virtual choir cover)

[@peterapoccia1281]

You made us cry!! We are Red Cross Disaster Nurses doing what the Red Cross does. We will surely be careful but we won't stop. What keeps us going? The smiling, shining faces of our clients and people like you. How very beautiful you all are. A rainbow of joy. We will get through this disaster. And the next one. And the next. We will drink the joy that folks like you serve up and keep going. Thank you so very much. Peter A Poccia, RN, Disaster Health Services, American Red Cross. (give blood; the Red Cross is desperate)

Thank you for doing this. My 6yo non-verbal autistic son has been trying to sing along with you all, even sitting next to the TV to pretend he is among you. It has helped a lot in his development of speech. I just wanted to let you know that your work, and a few other similar choirs, have helped a disabled child.

[@Sandra-fc8pc]

Wow, that is cool. My son is non verbal autistic too. I will have to try to see how he reacts. How do you work with his speech? Is it ABA? No therapist in the town I live in, Sweden, has introduced me to speech training. We are supposed to get the help for free, but I guess they just do not want to give it to us. Thank you! Lots of love to you!

[@helenhighwater7172]

Mountain Mage Your comment made me cry! How amazing to envisage this child being so motivated to belong that he is standing next to the TV pretending he is among them. It feels like a symbolic image for all us & our craving to belong; but most of us are not willing to be so brave, so authentic, so transparent. Bless you & your son. Thank you for sharing this

[@nikkiibaker9578]

Thank you for sharing. Music reaches in and squeezes the heart. Lots of love to your amazing son x

[@evab1135]

@@Sandra-fc8pc I'm sorry no one has provided your son with speech therapy. Our students receive it through school; I work at a school for kids with autism. You might be able to find some resources through our page and blog-- thecenterfordiscovery.org/ Good luck! :)

[@ryancowell2910]

Thank you. As a hospital worker at a covid-19 (corona virus) positive site, I deeply apreciate it. Im a hospital security officer risking my life along with some of our best and bravest nurses to contain this virus. I dont usually cry but I sure did when I saw this. Tell him we love him and are risking our lives so he can live long. God Bless.

[@Taylor-xx6wc]

I really needed this. I’m not a doctor or anything like that (I’m just a kid) and I don’t have some cool story like a lot of you but I was really moved by this. This pandemic has been really hard on me (like many others). This was my last year at the school I’ve gone to for 9 years and I certainly didn’t want it to end like this. But, it is what it is, and I know God has a plan for this. Stay safe and keep hope!!! Love you all💕

[@lorraineturner4303]

Hello Taylor, what lovely words you wrote, you said 'I'm just a kid' but it is people like you who will go on to look after the rest of us and this beautiful planet. The fact you love this song, the words, and the idea of it , shows me you are a sensitive caring person and I wish you all the best. Stay strong and enjoy your life

[@jsjjane]

Once in a great while you hear music that is so exquisite that you spontaneously burst into tears touched by the beauty of it all. Alone sheltered in place this 66 year old who was a vocalist in college was transported there by your creation. Thank you, thank you for sharing this at this time. You are precious. I’m so honored to have heard you. I’m sharing this with all my friends, family, loved ones. Much love.

Lovely. Thank you. Lost some friends through Covid. Lovely to hear this. Thank you and stay well.

[@kayb.1693]

This song brought me to tears. I have 12+ years of music experience, and cannot go a day without both singing AND listening to something. Beginning a virtual chorus myself, I decided to take a look at some, and think I’m so glad to have found this, because this? This is the single most beautiful song I have EVER heard.

[@taosongsinger-barbaraparks3986]

The Universal language of sound going out on the airwaves, heart to heart, melding into the spaces that need nourishment, healing and joining us as one. Without the distractions of daily, we are feeling the connection to each other more deeply than ever before. Let the colours of the rainbow shine, let us put down our differences and forgive one another......do we have the luxury any longer to hold the negative? And that's why I love you, your true colours, are beautiful.......

[@markrbelskymd4557]

I embrace with radical amazement the love expressed by so many wonderful people...we all need some more love right now.

This is a great cover. When Cyndi Lauper sang this, there is no way she or anyone else could have known what a timeless, iconic piece it would quickly become. I hope one of your 15,000+ likes is from Cyndi herself. If not, in time, I think she'll visit this video and throw a like your way. You all did an amazing job! It was fantastic.

[@sheilacook8565]

This was originally written by Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly in a gospel ballad style. “Cyndi completely dismantled that...arrangement and came up with something breathtaking and stark...” said Billy Steinberg(I think ). The person who arranged this song for all your voices has also done something amazing! Maybe I just missed seeing that credit... I would love to sing this arrangement with one of my choirs. Thank you, everyone!

[@una2n]

Hey, I was just about to write the same thing :) Credit to the real song writers is always a good thing. Also, who is conducting and yes, who arranged it A beautiful rendition! And big kudos to the sound engineer for pulling it all together. No mean feat!

Thank you so very very much my most favorite song. My children and grandchildren will surely shine

[@littlemike2095]

24 people that clearly don't have a soul are the ones who gave this a thumbs down. This was beautiful, and thank you. Well done kids!

[@kenbradley1480]

29 now but I totally agree

[@peterapoccia1281]

There're people among us that that are injured but you may not be able to see their injury. The injury may be very deep, from long ago, still raw, an open wound, bleeding. Our job is to heal that wound. No, the scar will never go away but it will fade, getting lighter and lighter, until they can see beyond their own pain - very hard to do when you have an open wound - and they can again hear the song of the world around them. I know from whence I speak; I began my "nursing" career in the rice patties of Viêt-Nam. I came home angry, bitter, bleeding. But caring people would have none of it; they healed me. I'm just returning the favor.

[@LifeOfTheParty323]

It's up to 48. smh.

[@jrmj5418]

I have to agree except those that did like it are probably either bots, or have some serious need for prayers to help them get some healing for sure!

[@twinkletoes22221]

these are pro singers ... and they are NOT kids. They get paid and travel the world ... the ONLY difference is they are singing individually and a wonderful recording engineer is making it sound like they are alltogether.. so 12 thumbs to the engineer.. is that you Roger?

[@dominikspodcast2197]

Wow i love these collages of wonderful people lets hold together to get over these horrible times. Lets sing our sorrows back their home. Lets make it shiny again.

Oh wow! I so need your beautiful voices during our quarantine time! Thank you so much for sharing your incredible voices! This production is so well done! Thank you!

[@haroldbrowne1708]

What a perfect song for these scary and dark times. Yes, America is built on true colors and it takes all of us, of all colors, religions, orientations from nations all over the globe who came here to be included in our American family. As the song says, if we show our true colors, as those on the front lines of this plague are doing daily, we'll come through this together. I'm an old man but I don't fear for the future of our great land with so many talented and smart young people coming together. I suspect they'll do a better job than my generation did and I'm hoping that's true. Thanks for lending your amazing voices to this. May peace always be your companion.

These are awesome. I am reminded that we, the people of this planet, are in this together.

[@howardclark2213]

This song, spectacularly performed, ties in well as another tribute to the dedicated people on the front line. They’re making it possible to maintain our existence and diligently work toward being able to safely manage this health crisis. Through the entire spectrum of their personalities and individual characters they uniquely are, they collectively demonstrate their true colors ... this unique relationship stems from the mutuality and equality of each involved individual. Tens of thousands of “front line” people are currently demonstrating their true colors. We're immensely thankful for that. Now, who do we become through all of this? Think about the opportunity afforded to all of us to 'reset' our values, our true colors going forward.

[@tearnor3103]
