This is my dad and I wanted to thank each and every one of you for this beautiful gift. He was very touched and so was the whole family. He is a great pilot and and an even better Dad, thank you for doing this for him. I know you have no way of knowing this but Coldplay is one of his favorite bands so you couldn't have chosen a better song. Thank you! ❤️
@@nesquick9681 nope, the media reports the problems that affect a large part of the population aswell as general topics that are most important (atleast if you are talking about credible media). Whilst this video is very cute and sparks joy, it is close to irrelevant for most people.
When you're an alto and have a 3 octave (C3-E6) range, but still wish you could add baritone/bass to it... •quirks an eyebrow• Lol, you think I'm joking? XD
They were probs going on a trip and the teacher heard about the pilot retiring and told them to sing. I'm in choir at my school and that's what are teacher would have done with us
The arrangement they are singing is supposed to be sung this slow. Its slower than the original but they are singing it properly for the choral arrangement
dude i swear choirs sound so angelic when they aren't under 12 years old edit... so im kind of getting hate, and it may be just my school but im in choir and im 12 years old right now and the people a grade above me sound way better so maybe its just me and other people, but if it isn't the same for you... then maybe don't reply?
@@ava-fx6ml I think Jttv meant they specifically select certain talented adults who've audition compared to an average school aged choir where everyone there wasn't trained or talented and they were just thrown in there because they were interested/it was an easy way to get out of class. I was also in choir and very few people were serious about it and it was so bad lol
My United Pilot husband lost his battle with cancer a few months ago shy of retirement…this is a beautiful tribute to all of those Captains that don’t make it to Retirement!! Thank you for loving on the United Family ❤
Capt. Ron Smith is one of the kindest and most wonderful guys I know. This amazing group of kids couldn't have selected a better man to honor with their beautiful music. Thank you!
i think i read somewhere that that's how you actually sound to other people. and that you only hate it because it sounds different to what you usually hear
This was so touching and beautiful. I still wonder, how he could manage not to cry, as i got really emotional on this. Many thanks to you young people for paying tribute to the pilot's hard work over the last decades! I sincerely wish him that his well-deserved retirement lasts many more years and that he can enjoy this time with his family.
BIG SHOUTOUT TO BASSES AND ALTOS! I always say this on every school choir video, but goddamnit basses and altos are so underrated. Thanks for continuously working, even if no one in the music industry pays attention to y’all 😭
These young kids GIVE ME HOPE IN OUR FUTURE. Not only did they give this wonderful man a retirement send off he will never forget but they just showed pure admiration and respect to an elder without throwing a complete fit. I can tell they didn't throw a fit because they are all still smiling and having fun. Good kids. There is hope for this world.
It’s just little things like this that can make such a bit difference to someone’s life. Now that man knows how appreciated he is for doing 32 years of hard work for all us people. 👍🏽
Oh bless him I’m surprised he didn’t cry I would have if that was my last flight I bet he taught a lot of other pilots to be like him I wish I could have had a flight with him that really touched my heart
This got recommended to me after all this time it’s been up. I love that everyone sounds so good and it makes me smile. You guys made the pilot wipe a tear from his eye. Keep it up 👍
Wow, that was so emotional. When I retire from being a pilot (which will not be any time soon), I would love to have something like this! 1:09 was so funny!
These are the moment that shows, humanity still exists in the world. Loved the song, the Pilot looks so smart and joyful. Loved every bit of the performance 😊
Oh, my! This was just so well done, so beautiful! And am I the only one impressed that these young people sang this powerful song in a language other than their own? Their from Luxembourg!
One thing you’re taught in life, is that EVERY GOOD THING COMES TO AN END.... but, it’s still so sad. But, in a bittersweet way. Thank goodness for memories. ❤️
Beautiful singing and what a kind gesture. Music does indeed bring us together. Best wishes to the choir in their musical endeavors! Good luck in your retirement captain!
I just saw this video and started crying. Sometimes, cruel things happen in this world. But sometimes, people get together and do something so touching for someone else they probably don’t even know. This video shows that our (and my) younger generation carries a lot of hope for a good future, with people caring for each other. Thank you so much for this magical moment!

Lindsay Smith It was a pleasure for us to sing this song. We thank your dad for his 32 years in duty and we are happy that he was happy :)
Truly lovely!
WOW this is what makes a CHOIR so AMAZING!!!
@Lindsey Smith Hello fellow Lindsey
A very special gift. Such amazing voices.
This DEEP voice ....
johan demazy Thank you, that’s partly my voice ;)
Nicolas Elsen always good to respect fellow basses
johan demazy i was cracking up and crying at the same time
It helps harmonize it
Basses should always be appreciated, they help add layers and beauty
This is what you call a true youtuber still hearting comments after 2 years
Yep
Yes, yes it is
yes ofc
Skritzz YT OMG AWEEE IKR
Yes but please remove your channel it spreads canser
Why don’t they report this stuff on the news instead?!
Nicole Shirley i know right!! The news needs more wholesome content lol
Morning news, most likely local news too.
Frls they put bad stuff about airplanes but let’s get some happy stuff in there too
So Dum Its Too Little To Be It Idk So muD Cuz Idk
Nicole Shirley I’m surprised it wasn’t
so the news literally show us deaths, hurricanes, awful things, but they cant show us such sweet souls to give us faith??
Nahhh, this is morning talk show material. News just likes to show us death before we end our day
Then just get off the news. That's exactly why UA-cam is here.
The news in my country show besides crimes and etc, news about cute animals or events like this.
Boo Nope. The media focuses on dividing us racially, spiritually, and religiously. And some idiots are dumb enough to feed into it.

He was Smiling through out the entire song. 💖🙆
zakithi dlomo i think he was locked in that position
Tbh what else should you do?
I downloaded this a Capella so i could listen to it as an audio because i love it so much
Is it just me or did a bunch of people randomly get this recommended?
Edit: Lovely video by the way 💚
Onyx Lov me and I’m not mad about it
Me! Not complaining, though!
Haha yep! No problem at all
youtube knows we need some good in the world
I did❤️
Nobody:
Choirs: singing literally everywhere
Used to sing in a choir. Can definitely confirm.
We like it that way
nkiss did you see the video of the choir singing in one of those farm seed things (they are hollow and I think they hold seeds)
Used to sing in a choir. I miss doing that, I loved it.
Absolutely true
That deep voice though
Thanks guys for this many likes!😁😁

@NimbuX okay. Thanks for pointing it out.
When you’re a baritone and wish you had a bass range :(
When you're an alto and have a 3 octave (C3-E6) range, but still wish you could add baritone/bass to it...

Conrad coco Manila Luzon ♡♡♡
I'm 5ft 4in and have a range from E2 to E4. I'm only in band not, choir so that's why its so small, but so am I haha
When you cant sing af and sont know all these terms but wishes you were talented like that :(
@@Legbookformer does your length affect your voice? xD

Theatre kids in the hallways:
Cez truest shit ever
Im in music class and we sing acapella everyday at hallways, classes, etc
Haha for me it’s just ‘choir girls’. ‘Theatre kids’ is so American lmao
As a theater kid, I can confirm this statement

Who decided to get a choir to sing for the retiring pilot? Good choir!
They were probs going on a trip and the teacher heard about the pilot retiring and told them to sing. I'm in choir at my school and that's what are teacher would have done with us

That is so old and dead, stfu
Play it at 1.25x speed for a pleasant "normal" speed if your struggling with the pace

Help a lot
Sounds so much better too.
That helps

It is because you can be selective. You don't need allow or force every screeching hellspawn to sing.

I'll be honest..
I'm crying, his smile, the beautiful singing, everything. I hope one day my choir will be this good..
Were you honest about your choir not being too good or about their singing?
@@AliOpridai About their singing, our choir is good, but not that good!
As a choir member, I also cried. I think my choir's okay, but can we reach hearts like this one? I don't think so.
1:10 had me dead 😂 but this was really beautiful!!

When you see your parents at the concert but you only have .1 seconds to say hi without anyone noticing

No it is darude sandstorm
Tómas Lynch lmao
Chapmen Ong yep
Chapmen Ong ye
This is the sweetest thing everyone that did this for him are absolute angels
I think I have a problem when I thought of Fallen Kingdom before Viva la Vida.
Same honestly
problem? my friend that is no bad thing
HyperLuigi OMG ME TOO

Me lol
Imagine a 4-minute long “Happy Birthday”
This guy been flying with United from the 80’s/90’s
UA-cam: Hey wanna watch some kids sing for a pilot?
Me: No, but actually yes.
What a touching tribute. He must be a fantastic man to deserve this recognition.
It could be mor emotional without that mobile phones and cameras everywhere
But it's nice
Beáta Nekorancová I think some of it was the choir members reminding themselves of the lyrics. Cut them some slack!
Beáta Nekorancová 😂
Well I guess without the camera and mobile phones, we wouldn’t really be able to see this
Whenever I record myself sing, I sound terrible. Great job lol
i think i read somewhere that that's how you actually sound to other people. and that you only hate it because it sounds different to what you usually hear
The guy who’s recording’s voice is so good.
This was so touching and beautiful. I still wonder, how he could manage not to cry, as i got really emotional on this. Many thanks to you young people for paying tribute to the pilot's hard work over the last decades! I sincerely wish him that his well-deserved retirement lasts many more years and that he can enjoy this time with his family.
I think I saw some tears
BIG SHOUTOUT TO BASSES AND ALTOS! I always say this on every school choir video, but goddamnit basses and altos are so underrated. Thanks for continuously working, even if no one in the music industry pays attention to y’all 😭
They really are. They give a foundation and a richness to the music that only the high voices just don't have.
These young kids GIVE ME HOPE IN OUR FUTURE. Not only did they give this wonderful man a retirement send off he will never forget but they just showed pure admiration and respect to an elder without throwing a complete fit. I can tell they didn't throw a fit because they are all still smiling and having fun. Good kids. There is hope for this world.
This is incredible. Their pitches and tone control is perfect. WOW WOW WOW
I learned this arrangement in my a cappella group, and I must say well done. What a powerful song...
That deep voice was so soothing like ok sing me to sleep???
No, I'm not crying at all.. Amazing voices ♥
OMG if I was him I wouldn’t know what to do with myself and I’d just stand there looking awkward as hell 😂
I feel ya bro😂
Possibly Me It‘s like that moment in school when it‘s your birthday and they start singing
@@nellll2710 That never happened to me 😂
xx xx omg yes😂😂😂
@@nellll2710 Aww that happened to me. It was really awkward 😂
The recorders harmonies are AMAZING!!!! 😍
This man seems like such a genuine person. You guys sound great!
Wow! 32 years of service and beautiful sarenade to close it all out.
When i see this i get hope that the erarth will be a better place
I thought they were singing fallen kingdom
ZombieProdigy25 LMAOOO it is the original song though.
LOL
It’s fallen kingdom, just different lyrics lmao😂😂
@@joyride6903 this is Viva La Vida by Coldplay
@@gzd5303 No this is Patrick
It’s just little things like this that can make such a bit difference to someone’s life. Now that man knows how appreciated he is for doing 32 years of hard work for all us people. 👍🏽
Try listening on 1.25 or 1.5 and it sounds so much better, and alot more like the original in my opinion...enjoy
It's much more melancholy when slower.
Dont know why it was recommended but Im glad it was
Not even the first note cames out of their mouths and I'm bawling my eyes out and also that's the beautifulest thing I've ever heard wow!
consider how good they sound singing this in an airplane, with no vocal warm-up, and recorded on what is likely a cell phone
Hello from Canada. SUCH GRACE AND DIGNITY! What a blessing that beautiful souls such as these are amongst the next generation. Well done!
once again the youtube algorithm has brought us together as brother and sisters
If your wondering what the song is its Viva La Vida by Coldplay
It makes me sad that it's his final flight, it really is hard to say goodbye to something you love.
Oh bless him I’m surprised he didn’t cry I would have if that was my last flight I bet he taught a lot of other pilots to be like him I wish I could have had a flight with him that really touched my heart
He did though I think he shed a tear at 3:25
This got recommended to me after all this time it’s been up. I love that everyone sounds so good and it makes me smile. You guys made the pilot wipe a tear from his eye. Keep it up 👍
That was just... beautiful. I'm so glad I found this video. Thank you youtube algorithm 😅❤

Me: I don’t know why but I’ll try it
Me after:
Very peculiar arrangement but a lovely gesture.
That guy is so sweet! The song sounds great too.
Wow, that was so emotional. When I retire from being a pilot (which will not be any time soon), I would love to have something like this!

Beautifully sung.
