omg GLaDOS i am such a bog fan and love your 2 games in fact i even made a picture of the whole gang including glados, big wheatley, chel, and companion cube. and remember, THE CAKE IS A LIE.:)
the best part is they don't have a single clue where the song is from or what the context is, so it just sounds like their children are just straight up singing about death
The parents were all on board. I prepped them with captured video and some played the game. I heard about a choir that did this after us and the teacher took a lot of flack. Racine is a cool place, cool kids, cool parents. My new choir will be releasing a video for a fan song for Minecraft later this summer.
I wish my school sang video game songs like this when I was in choir...all we sang was show tunes and 40s music. I want to sing Skyrim, Portal, etc. songs. T.T
Skyrim not likely... Still Alive and all Coulton songs are under Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial license, allowing anyone to sing it where you want. So Still Alive must be in all schools, NOW!
I was at the Cloud Cult concert at Millenium Park in Chicago a couple days ago. The band finishes and a computerized woman's voice comes on the speaker telling us all to leave. I yell "Look out for the Neurotoxin!" and get chastised by the people around me for trying to create a panic. Some people seriously need to play Portal.
Don't I wish. But honestly by letting us keep this video up they have given us some great advertising and I am eternally grateful. They even put us in their e-book "The Final Hours of Portal 2." Can't beat that kind of exposure! Thanks Valve. Thanks also to the hundreds of websites like the Escapist, Kotaku, G4TV, Geekologie, Halolz, Pixelated Geek, Know Your Meme, Reddit, Digg, Letras.terra, Fark, Topless Robot...And thanks to you for commenting. You know what, thank-you everybody.
Aww come on Jack you know you were proud of what we did. Experiences like the ones you had have lead to many more awesome things. Why be ordinary when you can be extraordinary!
It's hard to enjoy. Not because kids are singing it, but because it sounds better with one, creepy, 8 bit, female, evil voice. And they messed with the pitch at "these points of data". It also distracts from how dark the song really is.
? Even GLaDOS doesn’t sing the song with a sinister tone, and that is the point. It is a dark song that is sung to a cheery tune. The same way GLaDOS tries to hide her sinister motives with cake and a cutesy robotic voice, but it slips through anyway 😉🍰
Kind of off putting having a choir of little kids sing a song of an AI that's batshit. Still better than a lot of live performances I've seen! Nothing but Christina Agulera style singing in a lot of them. This wasn't half bad.
You know in sports when singers sing the Star Spangled Banner, but they ALL feel the need to put their own weird twist on it, totally changing the cadence and tone at certain points? I don't like how the kids did that here in the 2nd verse.
This is a triumph, I making a note here "HUGE SUCCESS". It's hard to overstate my satisfaction. Gilford's kids choir, they do what they must... because.. they can. For the good of all of us except the ones who are dead. Now there's no sense crying over every mistake, it's a kids choir for God's sake! But the music gets done and they have a lot of fun for the people who are still alive.
If i was in this class i would die because of how almost all of these kids probably dont know whats portal is and cant get the jokes and whenever would say "why is this song talking about cake?" I would explode
Still alive I am portals biggest 8 year old fan I love this game it is the best this is the Best song EVER!!!!!!!!!!! Plz like if you do you are theBEST!!!!!!!!!!!! So cool I love it go valve is the best :) I am crying I am so happy :)
THIS IS AWESOME! Words cannot describe how awesome this is. As a person that was in chorus for a long time and was left with a bitter taste in my mouth when my last chorus teacher was so forceful about religious material being included and proclaimed in a public school when i was not of that religion, this is so refreshing, and i cannot believe it made it to recital. This is wonderful.
There's one kid that's really off-key and I can hear them, that kinda bugs me. Also, sad how no one actually knows Portal. So I will drown in a puddle of tears and children's ignorance.
Why the hell do you assume none of them know of the game? This was probably filmed at the release of the game, and at the time Portal was very popular and well known, just like that stupid Five Nights at Freddy's game. I'm sure as heck they knew what it was, and if they didn't most likely hey know about it now, 😒
I just checked my email for the first time in months and I realised this was what my sister commented on this video using my account. Sorry about that, she's really critical of everything.
Just released our video of Portal 2 Turret Opera and the video of "Want You Gone" with our 3rd grade soloist returning as a 12th grader will be up soon!
Grace McDonough Well, Portal is more of a game for teenagers. It's pretty obvious that most of these kids are, well, kids. Portal would most likely be unfamiliar to the students.
It's been a long, long time since I was in elementary school, but it's nice to see that parents still don't understand how camera flash works, or when not to use it.
These lyrics sung by kids are epic. Props to the parents for not raising a stink or suing the school. GLaDOS is one sick puppy. And killed me. And tore me to pieces. And threw every piece into a fire. As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you!
I remember watching this video when it first came out. I don’t know what made me search it up again but it just popped in my head so I immediately just searched it up because I haven’t watched it since it first came out.
"while you're dying i will be still alive"
Audience: DEFUQ
even though you broke my heart... AND KILLED ME.
AND TORE ME TO BLOODY PIECESSSSS
AND THROUGH EVERY PIECE INTO A FRICKIN FIREE!!!!! XD
Monty Pig
I know the song is violent but really what is violent but I think it less violent then the world we live in today
It looks like someone's teacher had been playing to much portal
XD
There is no such thing as "Too much Portal"
Indubitable Gaming correct
The teache Do the Same like glados test test test
They got lucky my teachers bitched off I mentioned any game I want a music teacher like that ;-;
If my kid was up there, I would be crying lol and I would give the music director all my moneys
Christian Aloi Dang, a missed opportunity.
+Christian Aloi keep at least 40% of dat
Same dude
Christian Aloi same
And after those applauses the neurotoxins started to spread all over the place and everyone died.
XD
*GLaDOS:* _'That's not funny. But when you think about it, It's technically your fault'_
ravenargent ah, yeah, the tragedy that is Bring Your Daughter to Work Day
Nooo!
"Did I do that?"
Give a beer to that teacher!!
And a cake!
But it was a lie
Make that quintuple
Indi Sugar Taufik no, the cake is a lie
The cake is not a lie, lol.
it's funny that half of the audience might not know what they are singing about!
More than a half lol
+K.C. Lanchenba all of the audience doesnt know what they're singing about...they should visit Steam/Valve
you could say a half life
Ikr
I hate you tho
Sooo Cute! but I bet the parents had a lot of...questions.....
I think too
Especially the lyrics
“While your dying I will be still alive”
And
“And when your dead I will be still be still alive”
Jojo "Even though you broke my heart and KILLED ME!And torn me into pieces!And threw every piece in to a fire."
@@misterfister5810 well I mean the kids will be still alive when their dead
Jojo yeah
Recorded with PotatOS.
But in 2010, people hadn't got good camera in phones.
But, still, it's awesome!
but atleast the audio is ok
The kids when they read the lyrics:"WHAT...THE..."
TheTTVCrew
Back from the future and now they're living a good way..
Well here we are again.
that one guy who playd the game
@@UltraVioletLite it’s always such a pleasure
GLaD to hear children singing Caulton's masterpiece.
omg GLaDOS i am such a bog fan and love your 2 games in fact i even made a picture of the whole gang including glados, big wheatley, chel, and companion cube. and remember, THE CAKE IS A LIE.:)
Where is my cake? :
i told you, the cake is a lie
hello glados
GLaDOS GLaDOS, are you still doing science?
I like how 95% of my classmates don't even know what portal is lol
Lol
I think I'm the only one one in my class that knows what portal is
haha
Only me and my bud know so for me it's 99
wow u so cool!!!
The parents knew that they were singing about a murderous AI super computer...right?
I hope so, hate to think they are that clueless
irrelevant!
Billy Bob NOPE
Billy Bob don't tell the might banned the game
Should some one tell them
"While you're dying i'll be still alive"
This song was heard by the parents... Just think of that... :D
Jay Mol lol I know right XD
lol rip
the best part is they don't have a single clue where the song is from or what the context is, so it just sounds like their children are just straight up singing about death
Jay Mol Lmaooo
OMG XD
I WOULD DIE TO SING THIS AT SCHOOL
Don't die. If you die, you can't sing it
Isaac Fellows and ill still be alive
Anyway, This cake is great. Its so delicious and voice, Look at me still talking.. When there's science to do.....
I can brag because I have been there-
I wonder how many people in the audience were like "AAAAAAAH!!!!!"
Lolololololol
Young kids test subjects from Aperture Laboratories singing Still Alive from Portal.
i hate my school now T_T never got to do any video game music
Lol
Me too. Why always love song
I really want to do this song!!!!!!!
AgencyAnime Secret same
The parents are like wtf build a neat gun
Boss music teacher EVER
I printed sheet music for this and got my music teacher to play it!
he recognised it immediately.
Rhys Superdude you have a great teacher than
I can't believe this!!!! how did this even get through??? this is like one of those songs on one would want kids to sing at school!!
The parents were all on board. I prepped them with captured video and some played the game. I heard about a choir that did this after us and the teacher took a lot of flack. Racine is a cool place, cool kids, cool parents. My new choir will be releasing a video for a fan song for Minecraft later this summer.
Thats cool dude
99% of my class doesn't know what portal is and BTW lucky kids
100% of my scholl class dont know what is SCP CB / Portal /2 WoW /Minecraft jk they know what it is
I wish my school sang video game songs like this when I was in choir...all we sang was show tunes and 40s music. I want to sing Skyrim, Portal, etc. songs. T.T
Skyrim not likely... Still Alive and all Coulton songs are under Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial license, allowing anyone to sing it where you want. So Still Alive must be in all schools, NOW!
Tio Ñol
We are singing a cover of Dragonborn very soon. Watch OurMusicalLife RUclips channel. It is a cover of Malukah's cover.
Former test subjects that were released from Aperture Science. GLaDOS would have watched them sing.
***** lol
I was at the Cloud Cult concert at Millenium Park in Chicago a couple days ago. The band finishes and a computerized woman's voice comes on the speaker telling us all to leave. I yell "Look out for the Neurotoxin!" and get chastised by the people around me for trying to create a panic. Some people seriously need to play Portal.
Hardly anyone in any of my classes know what portal is.
THEY SHOULD BURN IN HELL!!! (or the incinerrator with the companion cube)
Wowowowowowow... Noobs
Lol
HA 2 people know about portal in my class me and my friend
same
Me: "This was a triumph!"
Parents: "I'm making a note here: HUGE confusion."
At the start : *this was a triumph.....*
Parents: *Awwww........*
*Except the ones who are dead*
Parents: *O_O*
Rare footage of the Aperture Science annual bring your daughter to work day.
Great
That's not an easy song to sing and they rocked it. (And, are in college/working now.)
This teacher deserves all the cake. Great job kids!
This is so cool.
Best. Thing. Ever.
Creepy and beautiful, just like the original. I love it.
Don't I wish. But honestly by letting us keep this video up they have given us some great advertising and I am eternally grateful. They even put us in their e-book "The Final Hours of Portal 2." Can't beat that kind of exposure! Thanks Valve.

The very last "Still alive" at the end was so cute and creepy ❤
Who else sang along.... (be honest)
I did
Me... XD
ZipperDeer01 me!
Me
me
Song 10/10
Camera -100/10
CAKE 100/10
WHAT WHO ALLOWED THESE KIDS TO SING THIS THEY DESERVE A RAISE
When your choir teacher is a gamer
Why am I tearing up at this?
I don't know. I fall to pieces whenever I watch this. Like, streaming down my face. I don't have ANY idea why.
This IS a triumph?
Them:*sings still alive*
GLaDos:release the neurotoxin
This has to be a cool place!
Some of those parents are probably like WTF is my child singing!??????!!!!!
I was in this choir. This was just one of the very odd songs we sang. Our teacher was bizarre
Aww come on Jack you know you were proud of what we did. Experiences like the ones you had have lead to many more awesome things. Why be ordinary when you can be extraordinary!
I love that the audience laughed awkwardly at the Black Mesa joke.
All those kids are now 17-20 years old now
Still better than Kids Bop
This says a lot about how kids ignore the ESRB ratings.
BEST. MUSIC. TEACHER. EVER.
The kids are probably like "yaayya portals song." Then the parents are like "really what the hell were they singing."
GABENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN U DID THIS :D
gaben had 420 babies and cloned them so now we have this :D
recorded with banana
Twardziel Kokos No, obviously a potato
Super Gibbon no a blackberry(get it because of the phone)
No, with GLaDOS in her potato
- _Obligatory PotatOS joke in 3... 2... 1... _*_BSFFFT!_*_ You broke it, Hero._ -
No, it was recorded with a combustible lemon.
This is the best thing that ever happend on your school if you're a valve fan and I am one give some beer to the teacher
It's hard to enjoy. Not because kids are singing it, but because it sounds better with one, creepy, 8 bit, female, evil voice.
And they messed with the pitch at "these points of data".
It also distracts from how dark the song really is.

:,)
:)
***** Well if he did, this would be my face :)
He did put the kids in the Final Hours of Portal 2 so :) anyway.
Official Gabe Newell naw fam if its rlly you ima freak out
I wish my school was like this.
I have horrible stagefright, but if we were going to sing this I'd *wANT ALL THE SOLOS*
:'( ITS BEAUTIFUL.
that was amazing!!!
Just a few years ago. The kid in this video is now working on her Bachelor of Arts in Music.
ruclips.net/video/I5V5rF-kKsI/видео.html
The children should have all gotten cake after this
this is how you run a choir
Kind of off putting having a choir of little kids sing a song of an AI that's batshit.
Still better than a lot of live performances I've seen! Nothing but Christina Agulera style singing in a lot of them. This wasn't half bad.
Oh, Internet, you so Awesome
Parents at the beginning: "Yeah, just a normal Song"
Abt a minute later: "Nvm"
I bet the kids don't know what black Mesa is
Live from Aperture Sciences take your kid to work day!
You know in sports when singers sing the Star Spangled Banner, but they ALL feel the need to put their own weird twist on it, totally changing the cadence and tone at certain points?
I don't like how the kids did that here in the 2nd verse.

But the music gets done and they have a lot of fun for the people who are still alive.
HUGE SUCCESS.
When they said now these points of data make a beautiful line they sang it out of key
I noticed that, but honestly it sounds better in my opinion.
Occy_Fun Heh I think they were attempting a harmony
SHARE THIS WITH THE WORLD!
If i was in this class i would die because of how almost all of these kids probably dont know whats portal is and cant get the jokes and whenever would say "why is this song talking about cake?" I would explode
thats a lie
and the audience was like...what?....
the power of 99 lifes
Still alive I am portals biggest 8 year old fan I love this game it is the best this is the Best song EVER!!!!!!!!!!! Plz like if you do you are theBEST!!!!!!!!!!!! So cool I love it go valve is the best :) I am crying I am so happy :)

***** They didn't direct it, so its not like they had a choice of how to sing it. Just the fact that they sang it is cool.
Tomadoku Kudu I agree. Some people aren't able to appreciate things without criticizing it.
I just checked my email for the first time in months and I realised this was what my sister commented on this video using my account. Sorry about that, she's really critical of everything.
the meme revolution lol you liar
kiddOS
Just released our video of Portal 2 Turret Opera and the video of "Want You Gone" with our 3rd grade soloist returning as a 12th grader will be up soon!
I bet these are Gabens kids 😏
Lol
They only did this twice.
no GlaDOS kids
I cant believe they made kids sing that song I mean seriously! they should not know that song!
Why not?
It really isn't bad.
why wouldn't they know the song?
Grace McDonough
Well, Portal is more of a game for teenagers. It's pretty obvious that most of these kids are, well, kids. Portal would most likely be unfamiliar to the students.
At least it's not as bad as what kids sing these days
It's been a long, long time since I was in elementary school, but it's nice to see that parents still don't understand how camera flash works, or when not to use it.
99vidas
why couldnt my kids school concerts be this cool
The choir leader of this group clearly has to be awesome for letting them sing this after reading the lyrics.
This bring tears to my eyes. I bet people at my school doesn't even know what Portal is
I have to admit this is one of my favorite performances of this song.
These lyrics sung by kids are epic. Props to the parents for not raising a stink or suing the school. GLaDOS is one sick puppy.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you!
Singing this with a children's choir is the most ingenious song choice I've seen 😂
I remember watching this video when it first came out. I don’t know what made me search it up again but it just popped in my head so I immediately just searched it up because I haven’t watched it since it first came out.
That was the most beautiful thing I ever seen in my life.
I can't help but noticing how awesomely awesome this is! That's really cool :D!
This was magnificent; the lights were a great touch XD
I wish my choir would do this, i can sing the song of-by-heart!
"And killed me. And tore me to pieces. And threw every piece into a fire."It made me expect the audiences' reaction right before they sing this part.
This was a triumph
I'm making a note here
Huge success
It is hard to overstate my satisfaction
