  • What would the barbershop classic "Hello My Baby" sound like if it were written/performed throughout the decades? The Newfangled Four provides a playful demonstration!
    Inside Joke Alert: This is the first time for Newfangled Four to appear as mic testers for the International Quartet Finals, an honor given to the quartet placing 11th. The special guest featured is David Zimmerman, tenor of the outgoing champions Instant Classic, who have been teased all week with this particular knock knock joke. David gets them back, though, with his reply!

    You would think that Hello My Baby referring to a long-distance relationship over telephone would become quickly dated, but it's honestly even more relevant today than it was back in 1899. The fact that it's stuck around for over 130 years relatively unchanged is testament to that.

      In this performance there's only one inside joke, which is the knock knock joke.
      The "rapper" is David Zimmerman, tenor of Instant Classic, who won the 2015 International competition despite being pretty much unknown to the society, that's why the "Instant Classic who?" joke.
      David's answer is due to the fact that The NewFangled Four hadn't reached the top 10 yet.

    I don't think anyone here, or even the NewFangled Four themselves know exactly HOW MANY young barbershoppers started the genre simply BECAUSE of this video, because of this arrangement. It showed how versatile the barbershop style is, how fun it can be, that it's not just 4 old guys in straw hats and vests (sorry you classics). Almost every teenage barbershop singer I've met, myself included, all started here. Massive respect to everyone in the style working to make it enjoyable for everyone regardless of age, background, or singing experience. You inspired a generation of singers, long live the NewFangled Four, rest in peace

    5. Their dancing throughout the whole video
    6. Jake at 3:39
    7. The imaginary banjos
    8. Ryan craving death all throughout the Rap section

I'm so glad y'all are making the decision that is right for everyone's mental health, but I'll still miss you so much.

      More seriously, he's not spending much air, and probably could hold that quite a bit longer if he wanted. I know I've never learned how to have a proper breath control, and just did 30 seconds, just imagine his capacity... I'm sure he can do around double that time. That's the thing with breath support, doing it correctly allows you to not spend much, at the very least within your tessitura, and so you can do much more.

      Magimos I think he said "the ten" referring to the final 10 in the competition, personally I've only seen videos and don't know that much but that's what I get from it 🤷‍♂️

    • @richhaney7047

      Brett Ferguson - that's exactly what it means. Ten quartets make the finals (referred to as "making the 10"); 11th place (from the semifinals) does the mike test. Twenty quartets make the semifinals - 21st place from the quarterfinals does the mike test. David Zimmerman's quartet - Instant Classic - was the previous year's champ, and NF4 just missed the 10 that year.
