The singing is hard. But serious props to the lady keeping perfect time snapping the sanitizer lid.
Wonderful! I'm watching this in 2023, the longest time and yet not so much. Thank you for putting this out there.
One year later, this is so even more true.
Not only are the vocals perfect, but those lyrics are GENIUS!!!
Beautiful, Well Done
גם אני ציוני גאה. זה גדול, נכון?:)
good one dorthy
So true!
I wanted to understand those lyrics, so I use dictionary! I have a lot of time fortunately. We don't have a word insted of [ I miss you.]exactly.(Maybe it means 寂しい、恋しい、あなたがいなくてつらい...) But I can understand that feeling.Different word,same feeling! from Japan.
Proud to be a Canadian! As our Provincial Health Officer says....."Be Calm, Be Safe, Be Kind". Take care everyone
What a talented beautiful people. So proud you all found a way to continue your gifted group while putting safety first. So impressed with you all.
The harmonies are ASTONISHING! #STAYSAFEFROMUSA
I still cry every time I watch this again, can't help it.
Canadians are sooooo refreshing... Thank you!!
Oh Bless you, Canadians!
Because of Covid-19, we found out how creative we really are.
That's so true!
Finding humor in any tough situation is a great coping mechanism
I still get the same feeling hearing this band virtually performing, than I would with the band doing so in person! :)
Just discovering this 7 months later! I love it. ❤❤❤Being home alone? Not so much. 💔💔💔 But, " I intend to stay here for the longest time!" Whatever it takes.🙏🙏🙏
"This is the best thing I've heard in the last 50 yrs! You feel so good when you hear it" says my 92 years old mom(Mary Pielemeier).
It's close to a year later, but this gave me a lift. Thank you all so much!
Wonderful talents and coordination! I love it! Thank you all!
Hi i just want to say I'm 11 years old and I love this song. Thanks for hopping for us.
Once again, thank you CANADA!! Not all of US intend to be bad neighbors. Sending you love and doing my part as well. Thanks for the music and the smile.
I play this every day and sing along. Such a lovely gift to us.
Thank you, Canada, for sharing your kindness. Your nation should be proud!
I've always said only good things come from Canada! Thank you Vancouver!
Dont know why, but here in December, listening to this after friends have been sickened and even died from Covid, Im in tears. Why cant we all pull together as a member of the human race, and follow the suggestions of these beautiful singers?
Everything is cool. Not only are the vocals perfect, but those lyrics are GENIUS!!!
Thank you for your encouragement. Yes! we keep singing! From Japan.
Nothing lifts your spirits like good music! Thank you all.
Amazing the power of social media to share voices way beyond their original audience. And Free. If only we could find he resources to do more of this globally. One World, United in Peace (in adjoining hospital rooms)
Thank You Phoenix Chamber Choir ! Your friends in the states appreciate not just awesome vocals but a terrific sense of humor. BRAVO!
A lot of bad things happened because of COVID 19
This is definitely not one of them. It’s so brilliantly written and sung. Definitely made my day.
mine too
Nothing better than a smile these days 😉
I just came across this one after seeing their Bohemian Rhapsody one. Both great.
I know. I could not quit laughing when my choir teacher showed this. I sent this to my Bible study group. I told them I would have sent my recording from choir class of this version of the song had I not laughed too hard.
who is here in 2022
can’t believe how far we have come
It’s actually quite funny if you listen to the lyrics! And, I loved the bloke getting a haircut as he sang! 🤣👍🏻
He is only missing the barber's poncho, so the hair falls to the floor !!

😁🤦🏼♂️
Wonderful! So clever and well-sung. Thank you!
Go Canada and the Phoenix Chamber Choir...Bravo!
Thank you Phoenix and thank you Vancouver!
I cried. Thank you all!
I've been singing in choirs for over 50 years, and y'all are the best of the best!
Sending you lots of love and hugs from Sugar Land, Texas 🎶😊♥️🤗
Absolutely, just what the doctor ordered!!
Thanks for the “light moment” that your great voices provided in the midst of this time of sorrow for many.
May God’s blessings fill your hearts, homes, and choral groups!
Sister Eileen
Amen! Thank you for some joy brought into our lives right now.
I’m sure when this was recorded, none of us knew it would indeed be for the LONGEST TIME!
Love the lady with the Lysol canister!
This beautiful music puts a smile on your face. God Bless
We will be at home for the longest time:-)
That was wonderful...thank you, Canada!
This absolutely brightened my day! Fabulous! Thank you so much Phoenix Chamber Choir for putting a smile on my face!
A beautiful song, with meaningful words
That, was awesome. I laughed, I cried, I did both at once. Thank you!
Absolutely awesome! Thank you Canada for sharing your spirit-may the good vibes return to you many times over!
GORGEOUS!GORGEOUS!GORGEOUS! It brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.
Utterly, utterly fantastic video! This made my day!! Thank you, Vancouverites, and congratulations on being in the SAFEST province ON EARTH right now... you've done a spectacular, unsurpassed job protecting your communities from this virus!
Glad you still all have your voices. Thank you for bringing music into my day. Blessings!
This is wonderful! I am 80 and have been hibernating in my apartment since March, except for weekly scurries to the grocery store and a week in hospital with pulmonary emboli. Love the song lyrics and the excellent singing. And, of course, the antics of everyone. Well done! Let joy commence!
Thank You Vancouver, Canada from Chesterville, Maine. You're the best!
This is wonderful! Thank you from the US to our beautiful and very talented friends in Canada!
Beautiful voices. Great harmonies....you can hear the chords from the harmony! Billy Joel is a great pop composer for sure. Thank you, my friend "Reb" I'll call him here, for sending me this!
Be safe!
Fantastic, beautifully done, great lyrics, lovely voices, thank you so very much, neighbors!
I love the guy with the puppets!
Thank you Phoenix Chamber Choir and friends. This is awesome. I agree with everything everyone wrote below. Just fabulous!!!
I am so happy I found this song. I've been in my room for the longest time, doing my part!
This is excellent. With guilt, I would LOVE to hear this exact group do the original version.
The guy getting a home-haircut is the best!
The line "I miss you so bad" brought tears to my eyes when I thought of missing my own chorus members. I've been singing in a chorus continuously for the past 55 years and this year is the first time I am not singing. Thank you for your wonderful video. I watch it often and sing along. Thanks for putting the words underneath.
Great version of a great song performed by great singers from a great country.
Sung to perfection, eh? I love it!
Excellently done, folks! 👏👏👏
Lovely. Just what the doctor ordered. I'm climbing the walls with boredom.
I just came back to this after almost two years, and it still brings tears to my eyes. The commitment to "stay here for the longest time" to do our part for the nation and the world - so beautiful. Thank you for this outstanding contribution to the coronavirus story.
Oh yeah, great job with the singing & the arrangement! Musical greetings from Europe to the other side of the ocean. Stay safe, hopeful and keep singing!
Thank you, Phoenix Chamber Choir. EXCELLENT!
LOVE the Lysol percussion!
Laughing and crying simultaneously...thank you thank you thank you for this!
The part where they say "I miss you so bad" made me think of my friends
Thank you for beautiful harmonies, entertaining actions to accompany brilliantly funny lyrics - love it & keep playing on repeat!
Bravo Vancouver! Love your beautiful city! Beautiful song ~ Beautiful voices! Much Love from Santa Fe, NM, USA!
Totally awesome... Well done.. I will definitely listen to this again..... and again.....
Great work folks. Thanks for the cheer.
With LOVE straight back to you from England UK ❤️

This is just magnificent! Everything: the rhythm, the creativity, the musicality. So Good!
This is by far the greatest message the anyone could say thank you guys you have done more than any government in messaging
I know none of you but I love all of you. Thank you. Brought me to tears.
Leave it to the Canadians! You guys are the best!
This is great. Made me feel so happy in this bad time. Thank You
Absolutely brilliant! Smashingly good!
Found this by watching the new show the greatest # home videos. You guys are great singers thanks for making this.
This is FABULOUS! And that Lysol metronome. Hysterical.
my favourite
Wonderful! Beautiful! Extraordinary! Such an amazing job pulling it together over Zoom. I loved the touch with the Lysol container, that made me laugh even while getting misty-eyed. There is just so much going on, so much to unpack. Little bits you each did in frame that will be a joy to watch and listen to time and again.
Percussion by Lysol wipes container ...awesome 😁😁
The finishing touch!
Thank you! THIS was beautiful! Salute from Rome, Italy!!!
I just want to say thank you to each and every one of you who made this video a big thank you from the bottom of my heart and I hope you're all keeping well and stay safe people vinnie from Dublin city Ireland and thank you and God bless you all
Whoever wrote and choreographed this song must have the talent of a genius. It made me laugh especially the guy with the bears. Well done guys.
Gave me chills - in a good way! Well done.
Uplifting, inventive, and wonderfully performed. Thank you!
No better ambassadors for all that endears Canada to a Yank from down south! Loved the lyrics, harmonies, great timing, the haircut, and the metronome!
Absolutely beautiful. Gives a different perspective to such an ugly thing.
Suddenly everyone is creative in quarantine. this is genius !
Gotta love Billy Joel...brilliant ✌️❤️🇨🇦💪🌎👍👍👍
I listened to and bookmarked this months ago. It's still great, and the prospect of being at home for months more (I live in NC, so it's not looking too good) makes this beautifully-produced and -sung performance all the more poignant. Continued thanks!
Great song, great lyrics! I am sharing it with my students!
Wow, you folks absolutely rock!
Wish Americans had more of the Canadian spirit of working towards the common good, being polite and more caring. This video is so inspiring!
Amazing!!! Thanks Phoenix Chamber Choir.
Love the Lysol wipes rhythm section!
Great voices and harmony. Lyrics fantastic.
ABSOLUTELY SUBLIME and purely delightful! Everyone had such great personality and individuality - and Beautiful voices that blended perfectly. Perfect diction. And creativity galore - watched it FIVE times and caught more fun stuff each time! Clorox Wipes pop top was a hoot, Long bangs woman, haircut couple, and the guy who's darling kids did a perfect job with the puppets, and so much and many more. All of you! Just AWESOME! Thank you!
Just heard this choir for the first time. Thank you for bringing joy to those who are stuck at home in quarantine.
