Can't even BEGIN to imagine the number of rehearsal hours/days/weeks it took to get this as close to perfection as anyone could have ever imagined!! Absolutely SPOT-ON SPECTACULAR!!!
Many years ago, I had a friend in the Chorus. Went to the Christmas concert several years. It was always a great show with beautiful props and backgrounds, many made by my friend and his partner.
Only gay men's chorus could produce something as colorful and wonderful as this!!! You guys are GREAT!!!😂
I feel like the funniest way to see your son come out would be to go see his concert and it turns out he's the lead soloist in the GMSLA...
Katharina Johnson and then he asks why you’re at a gay event...with your male ‘best friend.’ AWKWARD!
Muito bom (awesome)! If we Brazilian can party like nobody else, you Americans...when it comes to entertainment...are the best! Um grande abraço para Gay Men Chorus of LA (regards from Brazil)
They actually were spot on with the soldiers, including the trademark fall.
Lets Face It -- have not WE ALL wanted to a ROCKETTE .. delightful and what a wonderful Christmas Treat to us all from GMCLA.
uh no, we haven't all wanted to be a rockette.
I don't want to BE a Rockette, I just WANT a Rockette, them legs . . . a dancer . . . glamour. . . sublime.
Don't know how I found this but glad I did..
Brian Critchley maybe it found you ;).
Utube very probably presume that you might sort of be gay deep inside, accessory rather keen on singing. Probe deep within yourself you should, all the way to accept that your ultimate dream is to be Violetta the Traviata, singing "Sempre libera" in a red twirling skirt on stages like the Scala, the Met and the Opéra Bastille in Paris. Then you'd be a queen, and which great one ! Then your real own life would suddenly make some sens... see ;-) ?

I could watch this performance every day, especially during this time of lockdown due to the coronavirus. Thank you all for keeping our spirits up.
I have watched this over and over, especially when I needed some joy and amusement, and this always fills me with both! Love, love, love!
HI, ME TO !
Fabulous 👌. Loved it.
Having been with Boston’s Gay Men’s Chorus, I can say that ... that took a tremendous amount of work to do this number ! Good job boys !
Spectacular. Lv you all
This made me smile so hard my face aches!
That was E V E R Y T H I N G ! ! ! I loved it. BRAVO! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
From a very straight guy...that was great!
Nobody's perfect !
John is this your way to come out ???
Humor aside, being a queer male, this song hits home so much. Happy holidays everyone.
That was so wonderful on so many levels! Loved it!
There are a couple of people that have made homophobic remarks on here. The question is why are they watching this video? Oh, and by the way these men are not disgusting or weird .
Sure they're watching it, and you know what, they enjoyed it, because this is a glorious piece of musical theater. Grumbly homophobia is came afterward, they were ashamed of how much they loved and admired the performance.
What a wonderful performance. Music, vocal dancing spot on. I can only think of the number of countless hours of rehearsal. Bravo. Encore!!! The performance just shines with professionalism.
SO cute! And well done, as always! Thank you ladies and gentlemen ~ ;)
I love the way they make fun of themselves, best way to beat prejudice. Good luck and happiness to you all
Absolutely fantastic👏👏👏💯💯
So great. ❤❤❤
Wonderful, as an English older gay guy living in SE Asia, I presume a Rockette is a dancer?
Very famous NYC line dancers who do a tap routine and high kicks especially around Christmas at Radio City Mudic Hall
Music

I simply adored this. It was brilliant. and David Knebel has great legs. He was perfect and chorus was so good.
David is just amazing in this performance!
Wonderfully accurate, congratulations!!

Very well done people....
lived in Los Angeles, and loved watching their presentation everywhere, now living in Puerto Rico and hopefully will make it to Los Angeles again to see these FANTASTIC presentations that they always do. THANK YOU!
so beautiful! guys, how proud of you! beautiful presentation! all the best for all of you!!!!!!
ive commented on you guys before abnd love your stuff - voices, dancing, acting everything. However today I notice the chap on the left doing sign language so no one is left out. FABULOUS x
Hi again Suzanne! Yes, in all of our live performances we have a professional sign language interpreter for those in our audience who may be hearing impaired.
Always delightfully entertaining!
BRAVO 👏👏👏👏👏
These guys are fun to watch. So professional. Choir is amazing, a treat to listen to.
Great show and even better ending!
WOW Excellent !!!
Absolutely stunning!! Well done!
This is so amazing .... WOW .... to pull off the Rockette's signature dance moves on a tiny stage ... BRAVO!!!! I just was wondering if they had a Rockette to choreograph that number!!
The fabulous chorus member, Billy Rugh and fellow fabulous choreographer, Michelle Benton, did all the choreography.
Just fantastic as for the dancers they did great. I loved it. YES YES YES YES !!!!!!!!!
From here in France, we simply adore you guys. Be and keep safe, AMOUR to yall ;-*
I love the Rockettes and have seen them live twice and hooray for these guys to realize their dream and they looked great. I also would have loved to be a Rockette but alas I am only 5’2”. Too short. Well done fellas.
look at those girls again. they are not rockettes.
Jan Patterson they’ll fit right in
Fabulous performance!!What precision, perfect synchronization - a welcome relief in this mad, mad world~~
That was very entertaining! 💝🌹✨🎶🌈
Of course you can be a Rockette only here in America. You must be of the highest moral standards and have the gift of hospitality. It goes without commenting the ability to practice and work with others in harmony. I wish you the best of success.
Great. Steve, i'm thinking about you. 💓
That was just fabulous, found you by accident. Thanks for cheering me up on christmas eve :D

This sounds remarkably like, "Good Morning, Baltimore," from Hair Spray.
Sounded like "I Want to be a Producer" from The Producers to me
