This is simply a magic song–one of my favorites, and Walt Disney’s favorite too. In his later years, he was plagued with back pain from a polo injury, and after every workday he would have a chiropractic session. Sometimes he would ask for the Sherman brothers to come and play “that song”. They all knew which one it was. *heart cracking*
I did not know that about Disney – yes, very heartcracking. The song is so moving! I love to see these high school students just totally go for it. Very nice arrangement.
“Glee” for real… and it does kind of dew up the old lenses.
Thanks, Sheila.
This is the song my mother sang to me at night when I couldn’t sleep. I sing it to my students at the end of every intensive. And I LOVE this version.
Love you, Sheila. Thanks for reminding me.
I didn’t know you sang it to your students, Alex – how beautiful!!!
Scribbler – totally a real life Glee! If you click around on Youtube, you can find other clips of this high school glee club, and it’s insane. Elaborate sets and costumes – This simple Feed the Birds, though, is my favorite. Very emotional.
