- Smilin' Through. One of the most beautiful love stories - made famous by the 1980 International Champions, The Boston Common, and later by 2000 International Champions, PLATINUM! This was arranged by Lou Perry and Ed Waesche. The tag is as sung by PLATINUM. I hope you love this song as much as I do.

Tim ... I've been speechless ... because I've been weeping. It's taken me 30 minutes to compose this comment. This is one of my favorite ballads of all time, and you sing it incredibly. But I've been a fan of yours, as many of us have been, for years. I've heard you sing beautiful learning tracks before, I've heard you sing beautifully in quartets, sing flawlessly on your album, and heck ... you even sang my tag on this very platform better than I've ever heard it! But for whatever reason... *this* performance of *this* song *today* has tugged at my heart strings in a way you've never done before. Thank you for that. As I dry the corner of my eyes while I try to type: thank you for continuing to share your gifts with the world. You're a special guy, Tim. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this, Terry! It truly means so much to me.
Your talent means so much to us all!
One of my absolute FAVORITE ballads, with an absolutely perfect execution. Tim really knows how to bring notes on a page to life, and how to highlight the great arrangements he chooses to perform
So true Niko!
Thanks so much, Niko!! :)
You best believe I'm smiling at you, Mr. Waurick! You sing like an angel! You deliver each song the way they are supposed to be delivered! You make each chord sound better than the chords themselves, and a lot of those chords themselves are already phenomenal and you somehow make them sound 10x better when you sing them! So yes, I will continue to smile from ear to ear from amazement! 😊
Thank you so much, Brady! I really appreciate your encouragement and kind words over the years! You're awesome!
I can tell you precisely why the chords sound so wonderful when Tim sings them. It is actually quite simple to describe. The root note of each chord is always exactly in tune. The rest of the notes are all out of tune, particularly the baritone. Ever so slightly off the note in exactly the right way to create the resonance and harmonics that bring the chords to life. On an oscilloscope the frequencies would show. The other reason is that Tim knows exactly and how to use vibrato to warm up a chord just before it cuts out. That is a very difficult thing to do just right. This song is a master class in both skills. In fact, listen to that post at the end. As the chords rotate you can hear the lead tuning to the chords, particularly the resolve from penultimate to ultimate chords. The lead note goes up by a 64th of a tone. You won't hear the note change but you do hear the chord warm up.
I am actually in tears
I've never heard this before and it made me completely freeze.
Congrats, Tim, you made my brain short circuit and I forgot how to breathe for like half of that.
This is not the first time you've done this to me. Thank you.
Before I read your comment, I posted that I had to remind myself to breathe!
Thank you so much. Really means a lot to me!
This song kind of is like life in general. The chord progression I mean. In the end it always resolves
I am a singer, though not close to your talent, who has NEVER heard a more perfect voice, in every part, than what I just listened to.
Thank you so much!
I first heard this song performed at a JAD Contest by a chorus who I can't remember their name. I was a member of the Singing Buckeyes at the time and was able to make it around to see the performance of, at that time, my lifetime. Each verse had a member portraying an appropriately aged person singing each verse...a young lad for the first verse - kicking at the stones on the ground; a middle aged man remembering all the hardships of life, but remembering who was there by his side all the while; and, lastly, an elderly man laying a boquet of flowers on his beloved's grave. I thoroughly loved the first two, but the moment I saw the elder drop the flowers onto the stage, I lost my performers composure and the tears ran freely. Your performance stirred those visions immediately...and it was as if I was back 20-ish years, watching this song.
My wife doesn't understand why I cry at certain songs...Amazing Grace on bagpipes (I'm Scotish) and Smiling Through are but a couple....and she's looking at me again, with tears streaming down my cheeks, wondering why I'm smiling while crying. But this time, it's different. She gave me a hug like she's never done before, and I have a couple "drop marks" on my shirt - maybe she's beginning to understand.
My mother had blue eyes. I think of her often, and miss her smile (eyes included) more.
Thank ou for keeping mom and dad in my heart...where they live eternally. God bless, Tim.
One of the best arrangements by two of the greatest arrangers in our Society. And Tim sings it with the beauty and reverence it deserves. Oh, and a 30-second post like it was nothing.
In 50 years of enjoying this hobby, I've heard so much over-arranging and over-singing! But this? Lou and the "Common" did a great job! Adding Ed to the equation? PERFECTION! Thanks Tim!
This is comforting me. I am in a dark place in my mind right now. Thanks for this beautiful tag!❤
Thank you for the kind words. I know sometimes things aren't always easy. Sending you my love and prayers today. 💙
OMG Tim! Can I give this a hundred likes??? I was just so moved and spellbound by this presentation! Total awe! I just read TerryTags comment below after I typed mine in. Ditto, ditto, ditto!
Thank you so much!!
Fell in love with this song (and barbershop) hearing Boston Common live in 1985...just a masterful, well-paced tribute to this song. I was so enamored with it, I didn't even time the tag!!
Saw Boston Common at a BBQ the year they won! Private gig for 30 guys....mind-blowing!
😮😮 WOW That’s just… we laid my aunt to rest yesterday… with all the rest of the elders of my family, and your song😢 ❤Thanks Tim!! Where words fail, music tells the story…
I'm so sorry. Thank you for letting me know. Sending my love to you.
Tim- this magnificent performance reminds me of my introduction to barbershop. In the beginning of my barbershop singing I heard this beautiful song sung at International. (Was it Keepsake?). Your gift of voice gave me goosebumps (& tears) I must admit.
BRAVO!!!
p.s.- it was Platinum in 2000, 14 years after I started my BBShop journey😉. Boston Common sang it in 1980…
Platinum.
As I'm reading other people's comments, I realize that I'm not the only one who was touched by this song. The way you sang it.. so heartfelt with so much expression just took me out. It took me a while to stop crying. So beautiful, Tim. Thank you! I love you!!
Aww thank you. Love you too mom!
Soft-velvet-butter....if there is such a thing! 😉
this is absolutely lovely, I love this :D thank you for making this sound so unbelievable
also, you should try covering the Clementones' cover of "Mister Success" from the BHS 2022 International Convention! :D
The amount of shock that I am in due to the fact that this video still doesn't have at least 1000 likes is immeasurable.
I had one of the most stressful days at work today, only to see this pop up and immediately calm me down. I absolutely have loved this ballad ever since I heard PLATINUM sing it, and I am so touched by this performance. Thank you, Tim.
Nobody, and I mean nobody, does it better.
Aww thank you!
Beautiful Tim! Nikos comment couldn’t be more true!! The way you execute the tag to any ballad is stunning 💈
Thank you!! I really appreciate that!
I bought this song right after hearing this, it's definitely a must have!!!
The most underrated song and arrangement in all of barbershop.
unbelievable. I wish everyone could appreciate your talent for what it is worth. If talent led to subscribers, you should be in the millions!
Bar 48 ❤ the whole thing was beautiful but that bar spoke to me. Well done, as always. Keep singing !
I don't think I've been this early before! It feels like a privilege
Thanks for being so early! haha!
Beautiful!! Just beautiful! I can’t really think of a better word to describe this…
Can't get any better than that for a kibber! Perfectly solid and iconically representative arrangement of the unique barbershop genre, and the rendition wasn't bad either! Tim, you've done it again!
Dude, this has been a favorite of mine since I was about 16. That's a BUNCH of tags ago. Great choice, and great performance
If i ever reach Netflix, i know who to call for writing music 😊
Videos like this make me so glad I found your channel Tim
Aww thank you!!
Timmy, this song stirs deep emotion in me because it was one of my deceased wife's favorite ballads. One day those eyes of blue will be smiling through to me again.
I don’t believe I’ve ever heard this before, but I had to remind myself to breathe several times through it. Thank you again for your gift.
Oh my gosh i've never heard this song before and now im crying like a baby...
Having warm memories of Center Stage singing this on the International stage. One of my all time favorites. ❤🎶💈🎶❤️
Beautiful chart, and very moving. This is why we love Barbershop.
My all-time favorite ballad brought to life!! Thank you so much, Tim!
Great stuff, Tim! Can't listen to this one without hearing "I love you, you know I do..." right after!
I've never heard this song before, and it is a kick in the guts. Absolutely spectacular. Im sitting here weeping like a baby. Thank-you. So much of my life the last few years has been lurching from ine thing to the next that I've not been able to grieve. Well, you opened the flood gates.
Amazing as always Tim! My dad says he's wowed by your range!
Thank you so much!
No, I'm not crying - I just have something in my eye. Bravo!
Simply beautiful, you should be proud
Absolutely Beautiful!!❤
Thank you, Bethy!! Love ya!!
Tim, this is just exquisite. I got tears and goosebumps, all at the same time. What an incredible gift you have. Thank you for sharing it with us.❤
Thank you so much!!
Such a warm sound. You’d make killer vocals in ableton 😅
Just beautiful
WOW beautiful
Wow Tim. This rendition is so touching and sincere. It moved me. Thank you for continuing to share your gift with us ❤️
Thank you so much, Clay! That means so much to me! :)
perfection! 🫶🏻truly envy your voice 😔
This has one of my favorite bass parts to sing along with. Bravo!!!
Tim 🥹 that was breathtakingly beautiful, my friend ❤️
Thank you, Megan!! :)
O My Goodness!
This was exactly what I needed today. Thanks Tim for sharing something so emotional and heartfelt ❤
Thank you!!
That was so beautiful. Thx.
On my birthday? You shoudn’t have Tim!
Beautiful
I LOVE this ballad and this is absolutely gorgeous! I am, however, a bit surprised that you didn't do the intro, but still amazing as always!
Thanks Tim💚
Beautiful! This is one of our contest ballads this year!!! Can’t wait for premils in May!!!
Chills!
This is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you!!
Another wonderful song done by one of the best! Tim you are so good!
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you.
Hey Tim. I absolutely love your vids and your voice and I have been trying to replicate some of your videos but i am pretty new to recording software and dont really know how to mix vocals. Id love to see how you mix your vocals so i can work on sounding anywhere near your quality.
Wow, I love your interpretation of this song, Tim. It is absolutely gorgeous! I`m not entirely sure, but shouldn`t it be a Db in the bass part of bar 55?
Wow, just wow. Bravo sir!
Great low notes Tim!
Gorgeous ballad, Tim!
Love this song! Great work as always!
Really really great, Tim. Thanks.
wow this is a great arrangement. I might need to try it!
Holy smokes man, beautifully done. How wide is your vocal range??
Wow did you sing a low B1 at measure 24? 0:18
That's incredible!
It's a B2
Love it as usual! It seems like last beat of m. 43 you sang a C# in the tenor? 😉
Thank you. I sang a B on the last beat of 43, as written.😃
Man, I can hear the C# popping out - overtone maybe? I believe you though! Its a ghost note!@@TimWaurickMusic
@@MichaelLiningMusic More an "angel note" 😇
악보랑 노래랑 매치가 안 돼요...ㅠㅠ 하지만 노래는 최고예요!!^^
♥️🥰
I've always had this question. When you record a slow ballad like this with lots of rubato, how do you get all the parts to line up? Which part do you record first?
I always start with the lead part on a song like this. I'm often looking at the wav forms when I record, so I can see it a bit - but at the same time, a lot of it comes down to "feel" and me giving enough cues as a lead/soloist to follow. I also do a LOT of takes until I'm happy. I hope that helps!
@@TimWaurickMusiccan you talk about those cues? I have ideas as to what you mean but I’d love to hear it from you.
She’s the lowest bass!
So beautiful!!!!!!!
