If you are not a teacher, you have NO IDEA how difficult this was to pull off. Just coordinating parent-permission-to-participate slips for a student body of nearly 3,000 is a daunting task in and of itself. Then, all of the rest of it--choreography, practice, timing, selection (and mixing of tunes), getting everybody released at specific times to do their parts. Incredible. These kids were outstanding! There's some real star potential in the halls of Avon High School. Even the uncomfortable and reluctant ones turned in a stellar performance. Way to go, guys! Way to go.

I've seen about 15 of these lip dubs and this one is the best. 1) The well-chosen songs flow seamlessly one into the other so it feels like one song (props to the sound people). 2) The performers 90% of the time are walking forward toward the camera; other lip dubs have them walking backward and you can see the anxiety on their faces about bumping into something. 3) There's always something moving in the background - banners, toilet paper, flags, lacrosse sticks, wrestlers, confetti, dancers, jumping, and on and on - so there's never a dead spot. 4) And some outstanding cameos, like the guy who says "Tonight is the night." He nails the attitude, even a few seconds after that when he's shifted to the background and he's bobbing his head in time to the music; I don't know what to call it. Suburban thug? Also the trio at the beginning, particularly the student in sunglasses wearing the tropical shirt; the cheerleader around 2:00, followed by another young brunette at 2:20; and the guy in the long-sleeved white shirt with great timing who turns to the camera to say "get up." Anyway, congratulations to everybody. This video sets the standard.
The cheerleader, and also the girl who does Clarity, both particularly killed their parts. Great work by the entire school though!!! Pop Danthology by Daniel Kim!! Check it out!
I hated high school, everything about it. This just makes me wish the other students were just as tolerant and accepting as you all seem to be. Nice job and I hope this catches on!
Sarah M, the school sucks, a lot. I’ve been there and I had to get out cuz of how bad it was!! the kids were mean and the teachers didn’t teach will,🙄 all I had was D’s and F’s now I’m home schooled and I have all A+’s!!!
@@bbylavv259 im a sophomore now and my freshman year literally flew by. ive already dropped so many bad ppl and im finally coming into my own person, and being a whole lot more happy!! thank u for the encouragement
Amber Bledsoe My cousin just graduated from there. She said it was very divided between the cliques and bullying was a major issue in her freshman and sophomore years.
To all of the students at Avon High School -- YOU are Fantastic!! I saw part of this video on ABC World News this evening and even better than your performance is the 'why' you did this. Kudos to everyone at Avon High School !!!!!!
Why did I get tears watching this? I am so proud of this whole school. It does my heart good after hearing so many depressing stories today. What a fantastic job!
Outstanding. Film directors with gazillion dollar budgets don't want to do long takes because of the amount of effort required. Really great spirit and participation by everyone. That is something to really be proud of.
AHS Class of '06! So glad to see my high school still supporting Riley. Great job everyone! And shout out to the drama club (I miss you, Q!) and fellow choir kids! ^_^
These school lip dubs are the original tiktok.. I LOVED watching when I was younger & after searching i finally found them again 🙌🏻💓💓 brings back so much joyful nostalgia

Just see this covered on the NY eye witness news, I love this! This was a wonderful idea. You all are definitely bright stars for the future!!! You guys rock!
Awesome job Avon High School. This video says it all our kids are great in this town! No wonder Brownsburg backed out they know they can't compete with our kids here in Avon Indiana because OUR KIDS ROCK AND ARE THE BEST!
This was awesome for only being one take! It's so wonderful to see that many teenagers come together and do something good like this....and not leave anyone in the school out because of looks, or because they aren't popular, or because of where they come from/live. ALL schools, no matter what size they are, or where they are at, should watch this & learn how a REAL school should be!
Awesome job. It's obvious the amount of work and practice that you put into this, it's one of the better ones I've seen. And what a great thing to have for years to come. Couldn't stop smiling.
This was fantastic! Look at how well all of you did! You worked so well together, I hope it lasts every day in the hallways! Seeing all of you in the gym at the end was very uplifting and encouraging that, even though people are individuals, you can get along to create a wonderful piece of work. Congratulations!
Ok, I saw this on abc nightly news. I immediately looked it up, and I think you guys truly did an incredible job. I heard it was something like 2700 people? Well done, way to really be unique :)
Avon High School! Y'all are AWESOME! I noticed the BPA banner! Now this is what they should make happen for the closing ceremonies at the NLC! It may be practically impossible, but it would sure add a TON of energy! Avon High School has fifty billion times more spirit than my high school! Totally donating to Riley Dance Marathon as well! Thank you!!
The Avon High School Community Fair is Saturday April 19, 2014. It is run by the Student Government who ran this video, so you should definitely come check it out. All proceeds go to Riley Hospital for Children, the cost is $5 per family, so come see the stars of this video Saturday 1-3 pm!
From what I understand, You got an entire high school(EVERYONE) to work on this project for 6 weeks for charity!!!! Truly inspirational and you have restored my faith in teenagers....If I had any more children to send through highschool I would move to Avon just so they could attend your school....You are a very special group of young people....I hope millions see this video and get the same inspiration I received...could you please set up a link for those of us who would like to donate to the charity of your choice to show our support for you!!!!!
This is so cool to see and every school in America should learn from this, it's what should be taught to all students. Uniting together despite peoples differences in today's society and schools.. Great job to all of you and your teachers.. 👍
I'm an Avon parent and so proud of these kids. This is the kind of stuff we need to see more of in the news. Teenagers doing things to BENEFIT others. So sick of hearing all the negative surrounding kids these days.........Avon as a whole has got a fantastic group of kids!!
Congratulations to everyone who played any role in producing this. You have certainly done some impressive "paying forward." Oh, the Places You ALL Will Go!" Happy Easter/Passover.
It goes to show, that we CAN all come together for a common cause. There is NO reason in the world that people can't put differences to the side and realize there are much more important things in life.
no shit.. i live in washington between btown and evansville.. my high school sucked, if i could go back from college i would definitely choose this school... so badass
That was incredible! Gave me goosies and I teared up more than once. Great job kids, you will reach your $20,000 goal! Don't be surprised if Ellen showcases this....its freakin' awseome.
Wow, this is real music art! Mega kudos. Listen closely and see how many songs you can identify. I've listened to this over and over again and each time I catch a new song.
VERY impressive Avon! I know you made the video for the Dance Marathon, but what a cool way to show off 1) who Avon High School is, and 2) school is still fun! Good work!
That is pretty awesome! So lucky their high school is that cool! Looks a LOT like the "Somebody to Love" lip dub that BYU-Idaho did a few years ago. I would definitely check it out if you haven't seen it yet.
10 years later, this is still insane
I am 73 and you make me want to return to high school...great spirit! I can see myself at 17 in that crowd. I love it. continue to have fun in life.
happy 82!!!!
RIP 🙏🏿

Most of them do.
I wouldn't say hate. There's actually alot less drama. The middle schools is where most of the hate goes.

I graduated in 2000 from Avon. We were the first class to use that new building. WOW things have changed.
Outstanding. Film directors with gazillion dollar budgets don't want to do long takes because of the amount of effort required. Really great spirit and participation by everyone. That is something to really be proud of.
Great job young people of Avon High! You are showing what creative minds can do without drugs and profanity! Keep it up!
All the way from Alaska!

How can this have been ten years ago. I remember it made the national news. Originally saw this on ABC world news tonight with Diane Sawyer.
this is the first thing since moving here 9 years ago that's made me proud to be a Hoosier! awwww, great job guys!
This is amazing. I heard about this on World News, and came right away to watch the whole thing!
I just saw a peak of the video on Good Morning America and had to come see the whole thing. Great work! Congratulations Avon High School!
What a great video, watched it over and over and still see different things. Girl at 156 is awesome, what a presence. Worth watching just for that.
The human race can be beautiful when they cast aside their differences to do something together.
Deep and true
That's sweet! And something you can look back on 20 years from now and show your kids and remember your friends.
Omg I just saw this on Abc and I just had to watch this video

Wow I'll give these kids mad props I really like this video, well played, well put together,.
I wish I went to an american High School!
They're... average at best in comparison to other modern countries. As someone who has firsthand experience, I wouldn't recommend it.
Lord Caelvanir but American high school or at least the ones I've been to are so fun
Hahaha no you don’t 😂
rsclittlenature AHS is my school, every one is amazing!
Their nothing special really just more options for taking classes most the cases
This is awesome...makes me so happy that everyone just united as a school and had fun! Watching this whenever I get down lol
we worked real hard on this im glad how it turned out.
This is so cool to see and every school in America should learn from this, it's what should be taught to all students. Uniting together despite peoples differences in today's society and schools.. Great job to all of you and your teachers.. 👍
This video sums up the songs of our generation:)
BEST LIP DUB EVER!!! I' m so glad Pop trigger mentioned it because that's how I heard about it.
Thanks for sharing this is the school spirit I aspire to have one day!

Nice to see the people I went to High School with 20 years ago are still there. Some things just don't change. This was great.
Wow, this is real music art! Mega kudos. Listen closely and see how many songs you can identify. I've listened to this over and over again and each time I catch a new song.
Awesome video, have to admit don't remember the high school looking like this when I went through...man that sounds old lol
This is absolutely awesome.
VERY impressive Avon! I know you made the video for the Dance Marathon, but what a cool way to show off 1) who Avon High School is, and 2) school is still fun! Good work!
Great video and awesome campus
THIS IS PROB THE BEST ONE I HAVE WATCHED AND I HAVE WATCHED ALOT!! I LOVE HOW THE TEACHER PARTICIPATED IN THIS
Great job on the video!
Relieved that you cited Daniel Kim's work, didn't see them broadcast it on ABC news
They did
I saw it on the news and I finally found it.

Looks like aunt Merk isn't the only one with theatrical talent. Nice job AHS and Adam!
This was awesome!!!!
That is pretty awesome! So lucky their high school is that cool! Looks a LOT like the "Somebody to Love" lip dub that BYU-Idaho did a few years ago. I would definitely check it out if you haven't seen it yet.
I go to Brownsburg, but I have to admit this is pretty cool!
Proud to of graduated from Avon last year good work guys!
