Exactly what this song could do to you...bring a tear to your eye. The young man in front of the singers seated holding the microphone wiping away a tear, yep that's the power of beautiful voices combining to come together and sing this piece. I'd be crying too...just something about this song. The original, acapella, choirs, they all sound amazing. Thank you Alison Moyet!!
It would be nice if the writer and the original band were acknowledged. Neither were the Flying Pickets! It was written by Vince Clark and originally sung by Alison Moyet; in 1982
Obviously the choir came by bus, and part of them were delayed, others came by bicycle, and the last ones were not told where the concert was meant to take place....which lead to a far-too-long intro.
Oh the conductor picked an amazing song! The orchestra was lost as they weren’t participatory! But SWEET LORD the conductor and chorus produced such joy! And the conductor may go through his life well remembering these very moments!! I loved this!!
Totally agree with your comment. That conductor was totally digging that glorious vibe from those people. Couldn't have picked a better song to sing to. He had all the right moves and feelings during this... No doubt will he remember this for a lifetime!! Watched this now 4x straight, how can one not? Hits you in the feelgood spot and sends chills down my spine. Favorite video of all time!!
Thank you for sharing this with us all, peace and love from the wirral peninsula,bounded by the mersey and the Dee and the Irish sea...geography and rhyme..E...😊😊😊
Top row of guys on far right, 5 over and one row down, the lady with the short blond hair and earpiece, she is amazing!! Her expressions and emotions when singing this just hits you like something else. Not saying the others aren't good, but there's just something about her that always draws me in to her. Beautiful job by everyone!!
Me too, just got news an hr ago my beautiful aunt passed a week ago and watching this brought tears to my eyes. For some reason, certain songs will and can do that, and this one did. Beautiful choir, conductor, etc. The intro being long was the perfect buildup to a breathtaking choir performance that I could watch over and over.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day.. Stay Safe!
I agree, it was better to keep this shorter and the people who come on stage immediately may start the song. You also get a nice build-up of volume. For the rest, a beautiful version.
Ein schier nicht enden wollendes Introoooo. Jedesmal wenn ich dachte, jetzt geht es los....nochmal und nochmal die Wiederholungsschleife😳. Nix für Leute, die keine Geduld haben. So ein langes Intro funktioniert nur bei Irgendwie, Irgendwo, irgendwann von Nena😊
Da hast du recht, bester Alex! Die Introduktion dauert (viel) zu lange, und daß nimmt viel Momentum; saubere Lebenskraft weg von diesem (schönen) Lied...Das ist doch 'n Bißchen schade, ne...
The interminable, extended introduction, coupled with the singers marching on stage, was highly disruptive and detracts from the overall presentation (of very talented voices). As does the hall itself, which makes the vocals muddy, blurred, and indistinct with echo. Far better to re-record with just the singers, acapella, in a recording studio free of echo, with the normal two measures of introduction.

I totally don't get that when people don't give proper credit.
Alison Moyet’s voice was criminally underrated.
@@MrBiddy1975 Yes, she has an exceptional voice (her songs are on my favourites list).
And many people would be surprised, Vince Clark founded Depeche mode also.

I have to agree
😂😂😂😂
Bro you should Start a career as Comedian. I had to wipe the tears of my face... because I laughed so heavy 🤣🤣🤣
Really?you need to be so negative?shame on you

Thx ... you just worked on the original?

So schön, mir kommen die Tränen.

Anyone else in love with the blonde singer in the front row with the glasses??? Hubba hubba!! 😍
To all the critics here, The Flying Pickets would approve.
The intro was longer than the song.
After an extended beautiful intro, when the choir start the lyrics, it nearly makes me cry.
I did
Should apply to be on Britain's got talent brilliant x

Magnifique interprétation...sous le charme et qques années de moins comme par magie !!❤

The Flying Pickets covered Only You. Yazoo - Alison Moyet and Vince Clarke wrote and recorded the original version.
Fantastic rendition of a classic a capella.
Only you takes me right back 40 years
Beautiful.
Der Aufmarsch ist ein bisschen zu lang.... wenn man denn wirklich etwas kritisieren wollte... ;) Ansonsten: Wunderbar vorgetragen!
Im Original aber nicht von den Flying Pickets, sondern von Yazoo, die Flying Pickets hatten mit Ihrem Cover aber weitaus mehr Erfolg

Lindo vocal,,,parabéns!!
This song is not "by" the Flying Pickets!!!! They just did a cover of it. It was created by Yaz or Yazoo..... And they did it first.
Yaz in US. Yazoo in England. Written and composed by Vince Clark the genius. Sang by an angel, Alison Moyet
Da gehört keine Instrumentalbegleitung dazu. Flying Picķet sind bekannt als reine Acapellagruppe.
Tut mir leid.....Aber das Intro dauert viel zu lange
Rosenrot 200 viiiiiiiel zu lange!!!!
Penoso
Stimmt
Vince Clarke will be proud to see this.
amazing
Klasse! Aber warum sitzt der Orchester da, wenn sie es nicht spielen dürfen? Sie könnten zum Beispiel eine Strofe zusammen Spielen und singen.
Very nice!
Brilliant BRAVO
I'll do something inportant in my life with this song :) .... at 21Jun2024
Intro too long for me but, a CLASS act.
Porque BRASIL há 50 anos abandonou CoralVozes nas ESCOLAS. Tínhamos Canto Orfeonico e apresentação em qq atividade da cidade CAPIXABA
Not a patch on The Flying Pickets!
❤ wonderful
Dit nummer staat op de B-Kant van "Only You"..
Brilliant although I never thought I’d find the opening bars of my favourite song so annoying until they sang it on repeat for three minutes 😂
A bit too high.
The conductor did have a blast.
But it was written by Yazoo. Flying Pickets was a cover version

Sobran los tres primeros minutos: Play in 3:00 min.
Yes, we know. Thx for your comment, but we did the song for a choir positioning at the beginning of the concert ;)
This is a Vincent Clarke (Martin) song. Not Flying Pickets!
😍😍😍😍WOW👌👌👌
Sehr schön, nur das Intro ist viel zu kurz 🙄
Yes.... Half crying here...
The intro from this is way too long.
Good but they are no Flying Pickets.
Very nice.... if they started from the middle of the video. The first half, which was to see the singers walk in, regret to say waste of time
Great version od great song;)
Looking from a window above x
Underbar vacker musik hälsningar från Sweden Slava Ukraina ☮️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gänsehaut !!!
YAZOO song!
Intro was way too long
Molle
Molto suggestivo.Bello
Sorry but the intro was far FAR too long and highly irritating. 3 mins 20 seconds was ridiculous and spoilt an otherwise nice performance.
Agreed! Far too long and very distracting
YOUR SO RIGHT
It s like the groundhog day
Super 👏👏👏🇸🇰✌️
Schade aber bis zu dem Gesang ist es einfach zu langgezogen. Was allerdings nicht das können mindert. Der Chor ist klasse.
Fantastic!!!! Wonderful, joyous voices!!! Well done!!!
❤❤❤😂😂
Wann geht es denn nun los? Schon 3:20 vorbei.. Öder geht´s nicht.
Wir hatten diesn Song als Begleitung der Erstaufstellung zum Konzert ausgewählt und deshalb laufen aller Chorregister im Intro rein.
So als Video ist es tatsächlich komisch, ich glaube aber live wirkt das deutlich besser
Schön (:
Schade, dass über den Ton der Kamera nicht so gut alles durch kommt. In Wirklichkeit hat es sicher toll angehört (:
MAGNIFIQUE !!!!!
They seemed to have trouble getting on the risers. They should have practiced that.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ummmm DITCH THAT TAMBOURINE😀😀😀
The intro is too short.
Wenn ihr den Song mögt, checkt mal diese großartige Interpretation: ua-cam.com/video/PHISaPkPagU/v-deo.html
inécoutable! il faut leur dire que ce morceau à un peu plus que 4 notes!
¿ Only you ?....qué interpretaban The Platers.
It is NOT the platters only you. It is another song only you.
Introduçao muuuuuito longa ! Mas tudo bem, eu nao estava com pressa...
Das Intro dauert länger als das Lied selbst zu viel Frauenstimmen siehe Original
nu poti ceva mai bun decat sa stici aceasta melodie,nu auzi cum se aude?
YAZOO
The beginning was painfully drawn out.
Incredibly overcooked
Über 3 Minuten lang nur 4 Töne. das nervt und man fragt sich, was das soll.
Weg mit dem Intro, weg mit der Instrumentalbegleitung, weg mit den Notenbüchern und das wird ein wirklich toller Auftritt!
Strepitosi
Chiant comme la pluie.
nach 1 min Intro bin ich raus. Das ist Terror für die Ohren.
nothing special
