sorry about the downvote, but i think this is horrible. an obnoxious form of musical expression melted with a horrendous song.


No need to apologize for a downvote unless you don't have a reason for it. I am curious, though, why do you think it's an obnoxious (abhorrent, appalling, atrocious, awful, etc.) form of musical expression?

Thanks much! Glad you like it, too!

Chanticleer is by far my favorite vocal ensemble. Joseph Jennings used to work with my choir from time to time, and we be sang two of his arrangements earlier this year when we toured Japan. I love most anything A Cappella, but they've got a special place in my heart. What can I say, they're the best.

Personally, I don't give a shit either way. I can advocate violence without moving from my seat, because I'm not advocating anything for myself. I'm merely suggesting a better alternative for those in this video who are willing to stand up and do something to fight against their "oppressors." I'm offering a solution that doesn't involve standing in front of a group of musicians and chanting along with whatever they say. I love Rage Against the Machine, but when the crowd mimics their every word like a bunch of lemmings, it bothers me. Because they're not really doing anything. I'll bet you that most of those people didn't change a goddamned thing that day. But they all went home and said, "I listened to RATM live and a cappella!"

I could transfer a message to millions of people by shooting a bunch of people in a McDonald's. Within minutes, every 24-hour news station would be focused on Boise, Idaho, and my "message" would be sent to millions around the world. But that wouldn't mean they couldn't change the channel a second later and shrug their shoulders, saying to themselves, "Another one? Wow. Oh well, time for my coffee break!" So it's not transferring a message that is important; it's how the action of that message is activated. But what does it matter if that message is sent to millions of people who turn the channel to Spongebob Squarepants? That's what millions do every day, and that's what our President does, because he loves Spongebob.

So I sit at home and quietly wait for the government to eventually destroy everything for which our predecessors worked so hard. Does it bother me? Yes, to an extent. But I know that in the end I really don't care that much either way. I'm a bit of a pessimist and an apathetic figure, if you must know. But at least I'm honest. I'd really hate myself if I advocated violence and then sat at home, hoping someone else would do it for me. But that's not me. Oh, time for my coffee break.

weird how people write pathetic internet comments about how there should be an armed revolution, while sitting on their asses.
you're just embarassed here by someone actually doing something, actually transferring their message to millions of people... because you personally don't do shit.

*sigh* Where is the RAGE? The machine is next door and you're busy playing sing-along!

Go burn down the motherfucking machine! Rush the cops and barrel your way into the building, tearing down everything in sight. Create anarchy for the system! Overturn cars! Knock over reporters! Destroy it all, you goddamned fucking AMATEURS!

You know what happens when you advocate peaceful rage against the machine? NOTHING.

Upvote for the a cappella version of my favorite songs, but not for anything else. Fuck! This country dies while crowds go to karaoke. What a fucking shame.
