Being in Limpopo Province and my daughter in Cape town at a time such as this, is heart breaking. Watching her sing, while listening to these heavenly voices, takes away the pain of not being with her physically and keeps us connected in a very special way. Thank you Stellenbosch!
God always finds a way to connect people and there loved ones....just as he does with you. May he continue Blessing you and all of your loved ones. Love from Zambia❤
I had to leave my chior due to Covid 19. I was a senior in college. What I would give to sing one last time and hug all my friends one last time. I miss it and yes, this made me cry. I want to believe I’ll see them again 🥺
I live in Los Angeles and love Stellenbossch choir and enjoyed my visit to South Africa a couple of years ago. All the best to the people of South Africa
Always brilliant. There's no doubt it's one of the best choirs in the world. And Andre's arrangements are marvelous. Never seen anything like it. Greetings of a big fan from Uruguay.
Why is this whole choir not only talented but also very good looking?! Love this performance - especially with the message of not giving up these days!! Lots of love and thank you to our friends in South Africa and the whole world from Germany🌍😘
This choral organization is simply outstanding!! The clarity of voices is unreal. The emotion within this group is uplifting. The best choral group I gave ever heard.
Ik word steeds ontroerd door dit koor. Niet alleen zingen ze geweldig, ze zijn zo enthousiast, ze zijn jong, het is een heerlijk divers koor. Misschien proef ik er iets in van hoe de wereld ook kan zijn: We won't give up!
Choirs like this one are so magical, ppl sharing their love for music and bringing joy to everyone listening.❤ Hearing this gives me hope that we can get through this crisis together🌍🌎🌏
I sang in this choir in 1994. Really enjoyed it, but things have changed massively since then. Wish we'd had this conductor and choice of music back then!
Maybe because their looks are the least most important part of this incredibly emotional performance. Would you not have enjoyed this if they were all disfigured and less pleasing on the eye, so to speak? NO, their looks do not matter but their beauty does. It is completely different ❤
When I look into your eyes It's like watching the night sky Or a beautiful sunrise Well there's so much they hold And just like them old stars I see that you've come so far To be right where you are How old is your soul? Well, I won't give up on us Even if the skies get rough I'm giving you all my love I'm still looking up And when you're needing your space To do some navigating I'll be here patiently waiting To see what you find 'Cause even the stars they burn Some even fall to the earth We've got a lot to learn God knows we're worth it No, I won't give up I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use the tools and gifts We got yeah we got a lot at stake And in the end you're still my friend at least we did intend For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn We had to learn, how to bend without the world caving in I had to learn what I got, and what I'm not And who I am I won't give up on us Even if the skies get rough I'm giving you all my love I'm still looking up I'm still looking up Well, I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up) God knows I'm tough (I am tough) he knows (I am loved) We got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved) God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it) I won't give up on us Even if the skies get rough I'm giving you all my love I'm still looking up
Stellenbosch university choir, thanks a million. You make me see how heaven will be like with the beautiful harmony in your music. God bless. Longing to one day be part of stellenbosch University. Good job Mr. Van Dir Merwe
Just listened to this again on the day of the U.S. inauguration of our new President. THANK YOU !! for this beautiful and powerful message of hope S.U. You helped inspire America -- and the world -- not to give up.
Wow😍you guys amaze me everytime... My biggest respect to Mister van der Merwe for bringing this amazing group together and to every single one of the singers for singing absolutely flawless
Humanity CAN come together and use that which is common within us all, to create a beautiful melody that celebrates our differences and channels our voices to one purpose... these shared ideals can touch every human heart and change the world for the better through this synergism... thank you for the inspiration.
You just want to keep replaying this song over and over. Spectacular bass, and a true blending of voices and harmony. The Director is amazing how he can pull so much out of these singers. Great job to all!! In troubling times, this song will just keep hitting all the right notes. Thank you for making my day better and brighter.
When I took my parents and fiancé to see the choir, this served as a re-assurance to my fiancé that I wont give up on her...2 weeks after popping the question. This song...this version will be playing at my wedding...waiting on the Album Andre...looking at the choir members I would believe you asked them to set there focus themselves on those they wont give up on someone,because thats the look they had in this rendition. Magical
The joy of singing is so in evidence with this choir!!! They are reacting to the emotional words...their faces and movements adding to the drama of the lyrics. Harmonies featured in this arrangement are so pleasing. Thank you for posting this wonderful video...I'll be coming back many times. Stay well and healthy!!
Very beautiful. I feel blessed listening to this. Also a realisation that I should not give up on myself especially loose my soul. I feel very blessed. Thanks
I don’t even know how many times I’ve played this song cause every evening time, when I parading, I play this song with my AirPods on. It’s like 💥 lol. You guys are fantastic! You’ve taken Jason Mraz’s song into another level. Of a truth, André Van Der Merve is phenomenal! Y’all just amazing! Respect Stellenbosch. Y’all great!❤️
I am going to sing with this choir one day. I put it into the Universe again.
From your lips to God's ears. Amen
I hope it works out!!
Me too!! From Portugal to South Africa!!
GO FOR IT!
How Lucky you are ! God bless you
Dear South Africa: Listen to your own strong and hopeful voices.
Being in Limpopo Province and my daughter in Cape town at a time such as this, is heart breaking. Watching her sing, while listening to these heavenly voices, takes away the pain of not being with her physically and keeps us connected in a very special way. Thank you Stellenbosch!
Strength brother. Strength to you and your loved ones and to your country. I'm rooting for you and for Mzansi. Love from The Netherlands.

You can be proud of her performance. It s a beautiful choir.
From France
I'd cry for 40 days and 40 nights if I get the opportunity to see this choir perform live
Those crystal sopranos. One of many distinctive hallmarks of this outstanding choir.
Choir: "UhHUHUHuuu..."
Me: "OMG"... presses like.
Ah thanks for reminding me :D
Hope to see them live someday.
I had to leave my chior due to Covid 19. I was a senior in college. What I would give to sing one last time and hug all my friends one last time.
I miss it and yes, this made me cry.
I want to believe I’ll see them again 🥺

Sister with the big hair and big glasses is giving me life
This choral organization is simply outstanding!! The clarity of voices is unreal. The emotion within this group is uplifting. The best choral group I gave ever heard.
They are simply....immaculate.....
Still the greatest choir in the world. And we love that has become ever more representative of the dream of a Rainbow Nation.
Ik word steeds ontroerd door dit koor. Niet alleen zingen ze geweldig, ze zijn zo enthousiast, ze zijn jong, het is een heerlijk divers koor. Misschien proef ik er iets in van hoe de wereld ook kan zijn: We won't give up!
One day I will belong to this choir too.. I put it into the universe!
If earth can sound like this I wonder how Heaven will be.....
So beautiful ❤❤❤❤

Hearing this gives me hope that we can get through this crisis together🌍🌎🌏
Much love from Tanzania
This choir always has a way to get to the inner spirits of everyone. The humming and flow of the song is beyond magical. It's real talent.
1:02 Watch her hand. Talk about a genuine heartfelt gesture.
Best choir, I can't stop listening an wishing I was with them. My love for this choir is unconditional
I sang in this choir in 1994. Really enjoyed it, but things have changed massively since then. Wish we'd had this conductor and choice of music back then!
2:41 his emotions made me cry❤ and why are we not talking about how goodlooking that whole choir is?!
😭😭❤❤❤❤he felt the song so much
Maybe we are jealous?
Maybe because their looks are the least most important part of this incredibly emotional performance. Would you not have enjoyed this if they were all disfigured and less pleasing on the eye, so to speak? NO, their looks do not matter but their beauty does. It is completely different ❤
@Pamberi ne Hondo They are good looking because that's how we breed them here in S.A.
Song of foresight !!! Never ever will we give up !!!!!!
This is eyewashingly glorious. The future is full of hope for these young folk.
One day I’ll be singing among these amazing voices😪🤞
“Music is a language that doesn’t speak in particular words. It speaks in
emotions, and if it’s in the bones, it’s in the bones.” ― Keith Richards
I'm OBSESSED with this Coutts choir! Could watch them ALL DAY!
It heals the soul.
When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?
Well, I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find
'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up
I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use the tools and gifts
We got yeah we got a lot at stake
And in the end you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn, how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I got, and what I'm not
And who I am
I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
I'm still looking up
Well, I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough (I am tough) he knows (I am loved)
We got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)
God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)
I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
Music is life !
The voices motivated me.... To start afresh
Hope they visit Singapore someday and perform in The Star Performing Arts Centre where the acoustics is lovely. I’d love to hear them sing LIVE.❤
One of the best choirs in the world.
Sorry. THE best choir in the world.
God blessed us with music and heavenly voices! God bless you!! Blessings from Italy
