- Опубликовано: 5 июл 2011
- On a random Saturday morning at Greenacres Shopping Centre in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, the international award-winning Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University Choir delights unsuspecting shoppers and passers-by with an impromptu practised routine which includes a number of popular songs. The flash mob is part of an awareness campaign to get students to apply to study at NMMU, one of South Africa's leading tertiary education institutions. Find out more at www.betterU.co.za.

Did you notice the smiles on most all the faces? The little "get down and boggey girl". This is great. Would love to see it happen here. The singers are absolutely fantastic.
I love the thought of song breaking out all over the world. This is pure joy.
Flash mobs are a perfect invention. great solo form my friend Anathi Jindela "only you" And the entire choir ( proudly NMMU Alumni )
Just realized that I still have a huge silly grin on my face- I truly love being a South African.
"They call it Africa. We call it home." Ewe, Standard Bank billboard, I am such a happy proud South African!
I'm currently sitting in another country and when I watched this video I got tears in my eyes... I LOVE my country! SA is home and no other country can compare
From personal experience when u emigrate u take yr background culture and everything that goes with it forever
Another reason to love this beautiful country.
Some time, I pray, I´ll be in THE place for a flash mob. I can only imagine the thrill.
Proud to be South African. We can make this place work.
What a delight to see amongst the often negative reports on South Africa. A wonderful example of South Africa at the best of times! South African and proud of it.
South africans need more of this spirit in our lives.
I cried so much I think I was frightened when they started to sing. I am still crying as I comment. God Bless them they are wonderful. I LOVE IT!!!
This goes to show what joy and satisfaction comes from being part of a choir. This is definatly one of the most emotional presentations of this kind' I have seen on you tube. I sing in a choir and it reminds me that the joining together of people from ALL walks of life can breach any barrier and bring beautiful harmony to those who sing and those who listen. Top marks for a brilliant performance.
This is a flashmob. the real deal
And more than seven years later, you've made someone halfway around the world (in Canada) smile. Thank you.
Soul comes to another one of the globe's plastic and steel shopping centres! Beautiful!
I can never get enough of this fantastic, awesome video. This is the South Africa I want to live in. I am tired of trauma, murder, rape and road deaths. Let us begin to clebrate the life we all can share in this most beautiful country on Earth! The looks of wonder on eveerybody's faces is so stirring. I get shivers all over when teh surprise opening notes ring out from the top of the ladder. Well done guys!
the education department in the Eastern Cape is in such a state, its fantastic to see that the students themselves are now taking ownership of their legacy. Brilliant!
i'm not south African, but i'm a student in PE...wish this could make the news instead of all the bad garbage we usually see...this is amazing..well done NMMU, well done SA
Isn't it beautiful to see so many different people from all different walks of life joining in harmony together. What a present that would have been for Mandela.
Oh man.. I just LOVE it when people DO something so good just because they can.. may it spread like a virus all around the world. Thank you.. I grew up in PE so good to see the JOY in the community .. Do it again ..soon!!!
Love these ... wonderful to hear Shosholoza once again! Aaaah, Jenny, Austin Texas, USA
Brilliant! Saw them today in their 'Song for Mandela' Gooseflesh stuff! And a worldclass choir! So proud!
WHY does ANYONE not like this? It is amazing!
Thumbs up if you live in another country and just remembered how great South Africa is.
Awesome! I cried the whole way through! South Africa is a great place to live, because of the people :)
What an awesome way to put NMMU on the map! Proud to be a NMMU Alumni!
Someone sent this link to me months ago. I was so moved by it that my heart felt too big for my chest! I love South Africa passionately. I believe in our country and all the different people born and living here. The delight and harmony between al the different races shown on this video is awesome! There is so much sweet goodness in most people. May God bring us all together like this all the time.
Well done SA, NMMU and to every singer - wish I was there !
Bless the spirit of South Africa... can't wait to go back next year!
Only in SA.. how fabutastic is this.. we need much much more of this.. way to go..
Delightful! Great singers. Great audience. And great little dancer (little girl dressed like an Eskimo). Well done to all involved.
This is what makes me so happy to be a South African!
beautiful - very original south african - i just love it
very clear sound
Acapella singing is big in the US, and around the world. Just returned from a week long convention of Barbershop Harmony in Kansas City. There were 50+ quartets from around the world competing, plus 23 Collegiate quartets and then 30 Chapter Chorus's from all corners of the world. Second place quartet was from New Zealand as was 7th place Chorus. The spontaneous appearance of the Choir singing in South Africa was a clever way to introduce themselves to the shoppers.
Those Voices, Those smiles, the genius behind it all, fantastic! Only in South Africa, Love it.
I recognised two of my friends on this.
i dont know , may be there is something wrong with me, but i basically have to cry through the whole thing !!! GREAT Fantastically organised - great singing - great atmo - just the best - made my day !!
