    This "new" art form of editing long-distance collaboration will not go away after the pandemic. I remember when the only ways to hear other peoples' music were by pre-set listen-only recordings, or by physically being in the same place. My parents grew up where the only music they heard was created by the people around them. Not that we have changed music; we have changed the world.

    Wow! I almost didn’t recognize Daniel Boys. He’s changed so much from his days on Any Dream Will Do trying to get the part or Joseph in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. His voice has changed so much as well it sounds so much more mature than it use to on Any Dream Will Do! Wow! This was amazing

    I absolutely loved it. Amazing job, and the piece that made it so good, everyone sang in their range and didn't try to hit the voice range of the women. This was sung as a group as a dedication, and absolutely nailed it. My big thing about males singing it and why I never liked it is because it was written for a woman's part. However, they weren't trying to sing it as if they were staring in the show, and again didn't try to sound like the women who have played the part in shows. Seriously, absolutely loved it. And the voices were perfect together which also added to it.

    Can I please ask what software you used to create this video with all the individual feeds of each artist and the music synced up? I know it’s probably a really basic question but I have a school where the students would love to do a video like this but we’ve no idea what program to use! :-)

    All for mens singing Defying Gravity, just not this lot. A bit boybandy perhaps... too one-note? Mix in some range next time? Turning down the volume and watching the pretty faces next time.
