Years ago Bobby appeared at the Tampa Theater alone on a bare stage. He blew our minds! At one point, he said he needed a chorus on-stage, and invited basses to come up. I told our then teenaged son that he'd never have a chance like this, and he was among the first on stage. Then tenors, altos, and sopranos. Bobby said "I need a few more basses," so I got on the back row to let my son have the thrill of front row status. Bobby scatted with the three other sections one at a time, then came over to the basses. He shared the mic with our son, who kept singing the riff Bobby had given us while he scatted. What a memory! Bobby is a genius musical magician.
spiryt03 i have been to one of his shows, and i have no idea, how he does that! Usually my singing voice is... not the best... Really! But i found myself, sitting there, with 200 people, singing crystal clear, somehow! It is a very spiritual experience, to be a part of one of his shows!!
@@CgGoil that's because when there's a lot of voices singing a note, the ones in tune correct the ones that are out off. It's kinda how a herd works, but in voices 😁
If this audience had been told that a man would come on stage blowing raspberries and dancing limp, and you’re not only going to be singing, but in operatic style too, no-one would believe it. That’s why he’s genius, he entices out their inner child
i dont know if you still read these comments donna, but in my opinion this is one of the people that have been able to tap into the human soul in its essence with music alone, we dont even remotely agree with eachother on the political spectrum which should speak to the universalism of music as it is. god bless everyone that views this video
as someone who was a child when this was uploaded to youtube, much less when this was aired on televsion, probably my parents were, this still was super sweet and after a few seconds i barely even noticed the visual glitches because i was so entranced by ear
Este video es increíble, es material didáctico para quienes quieren usar y perfeccionar su instrumento vocal, son verdaderos ejercicios para las cuerdas vocales. Aunque llegar a niveles del talento natural del maestro Bobby es difícil, es todo es un placer escucharlo👂👌🎤🎶🎧
MAHALO PLENTY!!!! EVERYONE COULD USE MORE FUN!!! LAUGHTER!!! I LOVE THIS DUDE!!! I sing & hit my body & scat been doing this since b4 I can remember. my moms told me THANKS I NEEDED THIS ONE MORE TIME!!!never been 2 1 of his performances. goes on the list "To Do"
how is it that when you put 3 people together who don't sing all that well, what you get is an out of tune chaos, but when you put several hunderd of people together, they somehow manage to sing pretty damn well in tune?
Melting_Pot when different sound waves move, they phase into each other. So as long as what they're singing is around half a halfstep near each other, the more people, the more in tune.
Bobby McFerrin nunca he visto un talento que domine tanto las tesituras y voces. Lo Catalogo como el Caballo de Troya de Música Acapella. Bobby McFerrin has never seen a talent that dominates both the testaments and voices. I catalog it as the Acapella Music Trojan Horse

Awww this is so great! I love that you and your son could have that experience.
We’re you there when he porformed?
I had a similar experience many many years ago. You never know what's going to happen with him, fantastic!!

Can't believe i watched this for free 😮
No phones, no chatting during the performance just sheer joy and respect for one of the greats
5:12 to 5:15 its amazing how they all harmonized without his direction

@@FretBuzzLIF who said it supposed to be funny?
@@zBitcoin but seriously is he still around?
@@thegebruiker1852 i don't think so unfortunately
All of the excitement and hype over Jacob Collier... nothing he's done with an audience even comes CLOSE to what Bobby McFerrin did in the 90's.
The more I see clips of Bobby THE MORE I WANT TO SEE HIM, Thank You 🎶❤️

legend.. this man has made me smile so many times.. much love Bobby MC Ferrin
When you keep listening to Bobby McFerrin & applauding the screen....
Simply Blessed!
He needs to do this to Congress.

Please I would LOVE to see this

I can't get enough of these videos.
“I should probably now tell you that you’ve just signed a legally-binding contract”
I read "blinding" and it made sense...
Such joy
OMFGOSH how did they all harmonize like that !!? Lol
Дирижер от бога. Управляет целым залом зрителей, которых вовлекает в сам процесс. Браво!
What an absolute joy! 🙂
