    Wow. I had no idea this young lad was a troubled kid. All I saw was an incredible talent when I saw this song went viral. The original video from these kids was absolutely amazing. It gave me chills. It's a shame that if this simple choir program didn't exist he may not have ever found happiness. Hearing the back story about this choir and these kids makes it all that more special. This world needs programs and teachers like this. God bless this science teacher who knows nothing about music but may not recognize it but knows everything about humans.

      Christopher struggled in school in first year but once we set up the choir, it transformed his life. He's a great character and his kindness shines through in all the videos.

    Gives me goosebumps every time I hear it and every time I hear it I still say that it’s better than the original song and singers.

    I will never get over listening to these two!
    They should definitely do an acoustic (no autotune/editing) album 👌🏻 I would so buy it from these two! They could get far in music!!
