  • What would the barbershop classic "Hello My Baby" sound like if it were written/performed throughout the decades? The Newfangled Four provides a playful demonstration!
    Inside Joke Alert: This is the first time for Newfangled Four to appear as mic testers for the International Quartet Finals, an honor given to the quartet placing 11th. The special guest featured is David Zimmerman, tenor of the outgoing champions Instant Classic, who have been teased all week with this particular knock knock joke. David gets them back, though, with his reply!

    I don't think anyone here, or even the NewFangled Four themselves know exactly HOW MANY young barbershoppers started the genre simply BECAUSE of this video, because of this arrangement. It showed how versatile the barbershop style is, how fun it can be, that it's not just 4 old guys in straw hats and vests (sorry you classics). Almost every teenage barbershop singer I've met, myself included, all started here. Massive respect to everyone in the style working to make it enjoyable for everyone regardless of age, background, or singing experience. You inspired a generation of singers, long live the NewFangled Four, rest in peace

      In this performance there's only one inside joke, which is the knock knock joke.
      The "rapper" is David Zimmerman, tenor of Instant Classic, who won the 2015 International competition despite being pretty much unknown to the society, that's why the "Instant Classic who?" joke.
      David's answer is due to the fact that The NewFangled Four hadn't reached the top 10 yet.

    You would think that Hello My Baby referring to a long-distance relationship over telephone would become quickly dated, but it's honestly even more relevant today than it was back in 1899. The fact that it's stuck around for over 130 years relatively unchanged is testament to that.

      Chants I believe are mostly harmonized in the perfect intervals which has a very specific and INTERESTING sound it's not about bland or what's complex, it's how the sound comforms to fit a mood - in the context of this performance I think a chant style "hello my baby" could add a lot
      also... why be so negative man the dude was just trying to add something to this performance and you gotta just shut it down?

    I just wanna say that this whole barbershop experience (which I discovered these last 2-3 years) is genuinely USAmerican. I also met Americans in Greece singing with their choirs etc. You are a thoroughly lovely people and the events of the past days truly does not reflect the quality of people I have met and talked with. I think it's a judge giving a brief standing ovation to Jake at 9:36 when he says 'it's my first time'? That there is what I'm talking about. Humility and love for music. Not racism and xenophobia. The whole world needs to work on stuff. In the mean time, let's sing four part harmonies.

      this is fantastic, definitely agree with the sentiment.
      (I am gonna nitpick about barbershop just being American, I sing in barbershop groups in the UK, and while it only exists because the artform came to the fore in the USA, the barbershop scene in the UK is self sufficient)

    Whether, or not, they ever reached the "top ten" - they are the BEST!

      Infodump time: this was in 2016. Since then they have been in the top 10: 2017 they were 9th, and 2018, 2019, and 2023 they've come 6th. Top 5 get medals.

    I saw them perform a couple of nights ago. These young men are brilliant; tight, composed, and funny as hell. They have a bright future singing for many, many, many decades to come! Love to see them shine brighter^^
