this gave me cold chills...what a wonderful thing you are doing here.

This completely made me break down into tears. This song means so much to me, and it's haunting and beautiful to hear these talented kids singing Tori's words. Thanks.

I have never seen anything like this. You guys blow me away. Thank you for all your hard work and feeling!

Wow...I've always been that one kid who lived far away from home, having moved abruptly when I was eight. Where I grew up stuff like Tori and Lorenna Mckennitt were really popular, so I was that oddball kid who listened to Tori and indie music XP. It's cool to see kids singing Tori's stuff.

That is so great that you are letting these kids discover the fantastic work of Tori Amos. I think you are doing these kids a great service in developing their openness towards Tori's work.

Normally at such events, I imagine that many parents are having a hard time looking entertained and not embarrassed. Not at PS22! These kids are surpassing even the highest expectations. Amazing.

the soloist had me transfixed for a moment---beautiful sound!

This is amazing. So amazing. And, my favorite Tori Amos song!

I love this song...

This is a really cool arrangement of Tori's song! The harmonization and instrumental accompaniment gives this song a new perspective. Never thought it would make a great Christmas song.

One of my all time favorite songs! I love this arrangement!

this is where i come for my feel-good moments - your channel. it reminds me why i love teaching, and how wonderful it is to be inspired by another teacher's drive and mission. dude, you are so blessed in so many ways - you have a true gift. but i think you've figured it out & are using it for all it's worth. which is how it should be. you are the best role model for your students.

I can't stop listening to this version. It completely blows me away. I can really hear the SATB parts evenly and they are done so exceptionally well. The soloists were perfectly chosen. Gave me chills; so powerful and their vocal blends are distinctively passionate, along with the entire choir.

Wow! Those children were amazing. The ending with the girl was absolutely incredible. What an amazing voice :)

this is absolutely amazing. thank you very much for sharing this.

Thank you for this. It is AMAZING!

Speechless, and that is a first for me. Great Job, You have a wonderful chorus, you are so passionate with the music. Love It ! xoxo

well, as the choral director, i appreciate that a whole lot! happy holidays!

Amazing version. Unpredictable.

brilliant! What a wonderful version of this song!

Hauntingly wonderful! Thank you for breaking with the unfortunate tradition of "Christmas music" and doing something bold, unique, and meaningful. Spiritual and beautiful.

So Beautiful!

Thanks soulstice! Yeah, we were lucky enough to meet up with her several months ago. I posted the footage on KZread. The footage is posted in four separate videos. Do a search for "Tori PS22 Chorus Part 1". And thanks again!

The quality is great.

OMG one of my fave songs!!

This is one of my all-time favourite songs. It's heartbreaking though, but in a good way. It means they did a fantastic job.

i'm not surprised! you were always beyond talented!! nothing planned for a spring show, though looks like we'll be doing another american idol this year.... stay in touch and i'll keep you posted as to a show date! it would be so great if you could make it!! :)

I felt like the mbira should accompany this, not sure why. I think the strumming quality and close harmonies of the voices inspired that thought. Yes, very original version!
