    Looking back, I find that it's necessary to note that this video is how I found out the BHS and all of these fantastic quartets existed. I wouldn't be where I am today if I didn't stumble past this gem. Always great to come back to it. Looking back on my life in a tough time, I'm glad I found this. Thanks to the poster.

    This version beats their concert performance because of the setting, spontaneous nature, and just the feeling of fun with the close-up audience. Unbelievable how great music can sound when people love to sing.

  • @ohiocowboypoet
    @ohiocowboypoet 15 років тому +41

    Haha, I love the lady who says "Oh my God" at the very end -- so spontaneous and deserved by that performance. I also agree with 2Ken99M... the Dans obviously love barbershop to be doing what they do, so I have to believe they were loving every second of this. There is nothing like hearing that sound, up close...

    This is one of the closest examples I've come across that allows a listener to hear what it's like to stand 5 feet from a World Championship Quartet and listen to them sing sans microphones and sound stages. I've had the extreme pleasure to listen to a few in my day. Acoustix, The Most Happy Fellows, Nightlife, Revival, Realtime, Gotcha.....there is no better way to appreciate it...thanks for posting this...I've enjoyed it many times over the years.

    I can't imagine what went through the minds of the Dans , "hey we're a barbershop quartet , may we sing you a song ?" and then ring ring ring ring them chords and WOOOHOOO ! what a tag !...

Awesome impromptu performance by an awesome quartet - my wife and I were serenaded by the Dapper Dans while we were honeymooning at Disney World - different style than traditional barbershop and wonderful group of guys for people that havn't been singing together for years and years.

    I actually searched the Dans cause I had wondered if anyone had ever went and challenged them to a Shop Off. Like, friendly competition. But this blew my mind. Just a world class quartet like this, in vacation clothes, on the streets of Disney, who didn't need to sing but wanted to share what they can do with fellow minds. That's called brilliance.

    • @samsignorelli
      @samsignorelli 2 роки тому +1

      @@johanbrand8601 "Technically speaking, any frequency greater than the primary frequency of a certain sound is called an overtone. Another way of putting it is overtones are higher pitches produced by the lowest or fundamental note. Usually, the fundamental note is the sound you hear prominently, but its overtones are always there."
      So what's happening here is the last chord is actually producing OTHER pitches in the chord structure solely due to how the actual SUNG pitches are interacting.
      Example...on the very last note, after Jim finishes his solo bit, you can hear a really high pitch...one that's higher than what Fred (the big guy on the left) is actually singing.
      It's glorious.
