My brother sent me this link today. I am always moved when people come together. Why don’t we do it more often and about truly important things? You can’t watch it and not get the spirit.
For those of you who get the big wad of mucus in your throat when you hear the Hallelujah chorus, (insert big sob) here you go:
Now all we need is for WordPress to make those snowflakes available for our blogs!
Thanks for sharing these. I love them. If I thought I could hear that kind of singing at the mall, I would do my Christmas shopping there.

Awww Man…. I held out till the 1:14 mark on the first video. (I’d never seen this one before.) But tears showed up after only 40 seconds on the second. Hallelujah Chorus is my absolute favorite song…. EVER. [I have a huge connection from playing this on violin and cello in orchestra settings for six years.]
You’re right Kate, my Christmas season has been jump-started… totally in the right direction. Thank You!

I can never figure out why we get so weepy with happy songs and friendly gestures but we do!

Those videos almost make me want to venture into the mall between now and Christmas . . . but I shall restrain myself. 😉

I would love to see on of these in person but I hate venturing into the mall at Christmastime. However, next week we are going to the King of Prussia mall outside of Philadephia so maybe…….

I was weeping way before the little boy kneeled in awe at seeing the “Holy Couple” with the “Baby Jesus.” Beautiful! I’d love to know how many people joined in spontaneously on the Flash Mob’s performance. Very moving.
I posted this to my Facebook page. Thank you, Kate.

I was weepy too. I have always wanted to do this except for two things. One is that I can’t sing on key and the other is that I don’t know how to connect up with a mob.

This was at Seaway mall in Welland, Ontario, Canada! My sister lives there 🙂
Makes me miss my high school choir. We used to put on a Christmas show every year and sing all these beautiful classic pieces. Thx for posting.
