Haha this comment 😂

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.

You are welcome and thank you for thanking us! This certainly was a memorable moment...glad it helped you, that means a lot to hear!

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.

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.

The "rest" at 2:14 is so tight! That's unbelievable!

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 !...

Crossroads does an amazing job on "lucky old sun", must watch. The ending is awesome.

"These guys still are very good"? Go to 2009 International Quartet Champions, to be more specific "Lucky Old Sun," for the greatest quartet performance I have ever witnessed.

I love these guys and their music. I wish them the best.

I love how at the end the vendor behind them is just like "whoa, what just happened?" 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.

Hey thats Crossroads signing. They are the 2009 international barbershop quartet champions!!!!

This is one of my favorite things seen in all of the barbershop that I now just listen to. This is a quartet of really good singers who know how to lock chords with all the distractions, sounds of the crown, etc. around...didn't matter. Great work by a great quartet!

the bass at the end......amazing!!!!

This might be my favorite tune and quartet ever!! Close race between them and Vocal Spectrum and Gas House Gang...hm...something in common here.

19 people don't have even the tiniest patch of heaven.

This video brings me such joy!

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.

wow, now how cool would it be to stumble upon these guys singing like that on your trip to disneyland. they're amazing!

wow just wow, looked and found more recent vids and only got better but this was the best. it helps to be on vacaiton and not in front of judges lololol

I hope people realize how legendary this is.

LOL! I love the Dapper Dans of Main Street! This is so awesome!😁

I'll feel bad for the Dapper Dans. They had to continue doing there job after everyone heard that.

I watch this often. It makes me smile. I am impressed by the harmonies EVERY TIME I HEAR IT. I can't believe I am not sick of this yet!

Gad....can you imagine the Dans..."We have to follow THAT??" Awesome!

This was amazing! Very talented.

Its so nice to see people showing off true talent. Great jobs you guys

God I love these guys! I would travel across the course to see them perform.

*everyone starts clapping*… they wasn’t ready for that ending! Crossroads are amazing.

Omg That was amazing!!!!!

Those harmonies were tight as fuck. Mean while Miley Cyrus is getting paid millions to swing half naked on a wrecking ball to some lame ass 4 chord instrumental track. What the fuck is wrong with the world.

Even with all the background noise and the somewhat iffy sound quality, the chord at 2:32 gives me chills.

This was actually the next day (Sunday) AFTER their win the night before...they took all of their families (wives and kids) to Disneyland for the day.

Did everyone see Brandon grab his arms at the end? GOOSEBUMPS!

They are not just a barbershop quartet! They are the current international champion quartet!

Oh. My. God. SO AMAZING~!!!!!

That was so good

That was awesome

What a treat!!!

Another thing, for me, that makes this even cooler is the fact that these guys are wearing tshirts. Is that weird? It makes it all the more impressive, not being all fancy in matching suits- just walking up and just laying it down...

Well done sirs.

Beautiful

That tag was incredible...

I don't understand what you hear. I do hear an amazingly solid major chord and that's what matters.

@@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.

No, Crossroads quartet were not the voices of the singing busts in the Disney film The Haunted Mansion with Eddie Murphy. They were actually five members of the Dapper Dans that performed. Jim Campbell, Shelby Grimm, Bob Hartley, Bill Lewis, and Tim Reeder.

i think it'd be great if both groups sang together

すげぇ

I LOVED IT =D

lololol anyone else hear one of the dapper dans say 'i'm taking my hat off' at the end of this vid? bahahahah

Another gold medal moment!

I the first couple frames, on the right, you can see Pat Claypool and Shawn York who are two members of the 2008 International Quartet Champion, OC Times.

My introductory video to barbershop outside of dapper dans.

These guys are pretty good.

If this kind of music were more popolar on this days, the world would be a slightly better place than it is today.

Champions!

oh i wish i could hear the GHG sing together one more time... no one can beat them

I'll pay Disney just to hear them in real

They're gonna do quite well in Anaheim if this performance is any indication... great stuff!

That was amazing just after they got promptly escorted out for doing that lol

And that’s how these four talented gentlemen were hired on the spot!

I know those guys. I see you Mr. Slamka. And Mr. Dorosa is an awesome bass

"oh my god" is right.

Huge fan and have seen them perform in halls arranged for better accoustics but love how they sound in this clip. I appreciate the Dapper Dans for what they are but ....'love them more'......???????

I can hear some tap shoes tapping in the video :D
