Episode 6 Pitch Battle

# Standing in a crowded room and I can't see your face.

# Cause I don't want to walk on my own any more.

# You got a piece of me and honestly.

# I feel like the music sounds better with you.

# I feel like the music sounds better with you.

# And we can build this dream together.

# And if this world runs out of lovers.

# We're all in this together once we know that we are.

# And when you're gone I feel incomplete.

# So if you want the truth I just wanna be part of your symphony.

# Get up everybody, get up everybody.

Time to kick this competition off with Battle One.

But up first, collaborating with Chaka Khan, it's our vocal

We have all been friends since we have been kids and it is the first

time we performed as a group. The split was really cute. I got a bit

stuck. Natalie put so much hype and emotion into it. He said, mummy, I

am so proud of you. I have not experienced anything like this in my

life before. It was amazing to be on stage with Chaka Khan. We cannot

wait to go back onto the stage. Up first, singing with the superstar

guest judge who put them through to tonight's final,

it's Chaka Khan and Scot Soul! # I can read your

thoughts right now. # I can cast a spell

with secrets you can't tell. # But anytime you feel

danger or fear. # Cause I'm every woman

(I'm every woman). # Anything you want done,

baby (anything you baby). APPLAUSE

CHEERING That was so good. Listen, I thought

I was going to miss the boots. But you have come in with some

incredible gold studded beauties. Were you pleased with the group?

Very. Do you think they can win? I think so. I believe in them. Surely,

I believe you brought her some shortbread? Yes. I did not were it,

I am wearing gold so it might have clashed. You do not were it, you eat

it, it is biscuits. I smell something coming up. Now it is time

to meet their competition. I sense a Riff-Off coming

up but first it's time It's our chamber choir

Tring Park 16 who are We are working so hard to get ready

for the final. The end of term is really busy but we are sandwiching

in rehearsals. You can tell they are really close and you can see how

much practice they put into it. Nick is going to step in. We would never

have thought we would be singing with him. I have got to make sure I

am the favourite brother. After singing with Nick we are so ready

and we will get on the stage and smash it. Are you going to win? Yes!

Please welcome to the stage global superstar Nick Jonas

# Do you. to spare me, do you?

# I've been looking for love in all the wrong places.

# I don't like the way you went and told me 'oh well'.

# I have the suspicion you're not being yourself.

# I don't suppose you have a moment to spare me, do you?

# Are just a fancy way of saying I care.

# You're probably somewhere with someone I don't know.

# Listen I don't like the way you went

# I have the suspicion you're not being yourself.

# You're probably somewhere with someone I don't know.

# Are just a fancy way of saying I care.

# And I know I'm talking it ain't fair.

# Hate's just a fancy way a sayin I care.

# Are just a fancy way of saying I care.

CHEERING Oh, my lord.

Huge congratulations to everybody. You wake for one Jonas and two come

along. Nick, it is good to have you here. Joe passed you the baton. Yes,

he did, I tried to step up, but these guys are incredible. Now,

Caitlin, listen, be honest, who is the better singer? Joke or Alnwick?

Be straight up. You cannot ask that on TV. They are just as good as each

other. Absolutely, the right answer, she will go far. Thank you very

much. Nick, if you wouldn't mind making

your way to the superstar balcony. Gang, come along. Let's heard

ourselves. Gareth, he is already doodling. I am making notes. With

your x-ray vision, tell us the truth and advise these two groups what

they can do to prepare. We are all a bit overwhelmed because the standard

is so high. These are the best of the groups in the series and we have

left so many behind to get to this point. It is stunning and it is

fascinating to see how you bring the energy up to match your superstar

singer. Scot Sole, you brought loads of joy and style and you always give

me that immaculate phrasing. A couple of times you were sitting on

the OS map, but it was exciting. Do not sit on them and always use a

baton. Only one of these groups will go through to the next round, the

other is about to be knocked out of the night's final.

Deciding their fate is the themed Riff-Off!

Let's reveal to the audience at home what your theme is!

Well, all you have to do to succeed tonight is,

You've simply got to be better than the other group.

In tonight's first live Riff-Off, it's Scot Soul versus Tring Park 16!

# I thought love was only true in fairy tales.

# Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

# I can feel something inside me say.

# Really don't think you're strong enough.

# How did you know I needed you so badly.

# How did you know I'd give my heart gladly.

# Yesterday, I was one of the lonely people.

# Now you're lying close to me, making love to me.

# Just listen to the rhythm of my heart.

# There's a chance we can make it now.

# We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down.

# I believe in a thing called love.

# Touching you, God, you're touching me.

# Who knows what miracles you can achieve.

# I think about it every night and day.

There is a lot of love in the room. I'm going to have two separate them,

it is like herding guinea pigs. Scot Soul, the prime mover, a bit of

Gangnam Style there. Did you nanograms -- did you enjoy it? I had

a great time. Just going to leave that there, sorry. Well done, Scot

Soul. And pulling out all the moves, how was that for you? I'm so sorry,

my darling, what is your name? Matt, my best friend, I know you very

well! Matthew! And I had no time for questions. Call me. Very close

friends. Only one group can go through to the next round.

Cleopatra! Do you believe in these groups? I believe very much. Scot

Soul, you guys are so consistent and natural, it comes out very

effortless and synchronised. Tring Park, Matt, what a fantastic

falsetto, gorgeous. You guys, your energy is electric and very

exciting. Now we have five against 16, is that fair? The bottom line is

you get the right five people together and they join their voices

for that Harmony range. And Scot Soul, I cannot understand what you

say when you speak, but when you think you sound like session

singers. Unbelievable. Tring Park, I cannot believe that you are a

classical choir. You're singing pop songs like that and running round in

circles. I picked you up earlier for not living each phrase but there was

so much energy. Absolutely infectious. You are up against a

group with one of the warmest tones in the whole contest so it was a

tough battle. Could we be seeing the winner on stage? Who knows. One

group is about to be eliminated from the finals. It is decision time.

Which group would you like to see go forward into the next round? It is a

hard decision, I love both groups. I had to go with Scot Soul. Gareth,

which group would you like to see progress? Progression is what I've

seen, an amazing change in this group. I'm going to reward that

youthful exuberance, Tring Park. It is down to you, Deke Sharon, which

group would you like to go forward in the next round? Every person on

stage has a bright future. But I'm going to go with Scot Soul. That

means we have to say goodbye to Tring Park. You have been brilliant,

thank you so much. Well done, guys. Natalie, are you able to speak? Yes.

Your thoughts and feelings? We are just over the moon. You guys are

amazing and we never thought we would get this far. Oh, guys. Thank

you. Thank you everybody. Congratulations Scot Soul. Getting

through to the next round. But not the solo battle that you will be

taking on, oh no. The pressure is on because we are stripping away our

band, the next round is all about the vocals as they entered the a

cappella battle. How are you feeling about that? It is a challenge,

something we've never done before. But we're excited. Where are you a

bracelet and all will be good! Spots sold through to the a cappella

battle. Well done. -- Scot Soul. Who is going to be joining them? You

will get your chance to vote for the ultimate winner later in the show.

You just need to sign in or register by going to bbc.co.uk/pitchbattle

where you will also find full terms and conditions.

But first out of the choral trap, it's the Portsmouth University

Portsmouth University Gospel choir make my heart flutter, so exciting.

They have a real sense of team. The final battle puts every emotion into

the song. Portsmouth University Gospel choir showed fight and I

admire that. To shared the stage with Seal, he's a legend. We're more

than ready to go back into battle. We are in it to it. -- to win it.

Please welcome superstar singer Seal with his heat's winners,

The Portsmouth University Gospel Choir!

# But I still haven't found what I'm looking for.

# But I still haven't found what I'm looking for.

# But I still haven't found what I'm looking for.

Seal, you still haven't found what you're looking for? Perhaps a

49-year-old from Leatherhead. If you don't tell anyone, I want. You have

met your match! Heaven! How was that for you? This whole thing is just

the most amazing experience. Even to be standing next to Seal. He is all

right, isn't he, quite cute. Thank you so much, you were incredible.

Now time to hear from their competition.

it's our university cappella group All The King's Men with Bebe Rexha!

All the Kings men bringing a very choral sound to pop. We owe

everything to the fact that we all sang enquirers when we were younger.

They stole the show for me. Just something I have seen before. As a

group of friends there is no words to describe it. This is the biggest

opportunity we have ever had. It feels everything has been leading up

to this moment, this final. Please welcome to the stage singing

with their superstar guest judge Bebe Rexha,

it's All the King's Men! # Ooh I'm sorry I'm

not the most pretty. # It could be anybody, tell me,

are you that somebody? # Don't matter who you are,

just love me the way I are. # Don't matter who you

are, just love me the Oh, my goodness. Wow. Wow. Now,... I

really love these guys. I can tell. I drove five hours in traffic and I

wanted to see them and I wanted the best for them. Last time you said

you would pay to see them. How much will they charge? Am I getting a

commission? Lovely to see you. Bebe on the BBC. George, how was it

sharing the stage with this goddess? Completely unreal to perform with a

musician of Bebe's talent. Thank you.

Come on in, Portsmouth. Come right here. Cling close. Now, gang. Let us

find out what the judges thought. Deke, I think it is time to hear

some of your trademark low energy banter is. We have got two very

different choir is standing before you. What did they do to impress

you? They are both the same age, but there the similarities differ.

Portsmouth, your performance was so close to perfection it was

statistically insignificant. You were flawlessly beautiful and I want

to go and buy that record right now. But... That was difficult. What you

are doing is exactly right, it is three or four part harmony. On the

other hand, what you guys did not do was not perfect, but it is more

difficult. You guys did a flawless somersault, a perfect ten, but the

difficulty level was not as hard. You did a double and a gerbil

somersault. It is a singing competition, Deke.

Only one of these two groups will go through to the next round.

The other, well I'm afraid we will be bidding you a final farewell.

Deciding their fate is the themed Rip-Off!

Deciding their fate is the themed Riff-Off!

Let's reveal to the audience at home what your theme is!

Crazy horses, crazy horses! Literally no one got that reference.

Very Best of luck, everyone. See you later.

It's Portsmouth University Gospel Choir versus All the King's Men!

# You've got that something, what can I do?

# Woah cra-a-zy, but it feels alright.

# Baby thinking of you keeps me up all night.

# Crazy crazy crazy 'til we see the sun.

# I know we only met but let's pretend it's love.

# And never never never stop for an-y-one.

# Wanna live wanna live wann live wanna live while we're young.

# Wanna live wanna live wann live wanna live while we're...

# I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying.

# And I know it's stupid to be mad about the boy.

# I'm feeling quite insane and young again.

# And all because I'm mad about the boy.

# In a world full of people there's only some want to fly-y-y.

# But we're never gonna survive unless.

# No no never gonna to survive unless

# I look and stare so deep in your eyes.

# I touch on you more and more every time.

# When you leave I'm begging you not to go.

# Call your name two or three times in a row.

# Your love's got me looking so crazy right now.

# Lookin so crazy your love's got me looking.

CHEERING Oh, my word. Too much love again.

Too much hugging, I am going into separate them. Come on, gangs. I

have to separate you out, darling. Are you feeling this? This is

unbelievable, this is amazing. Now, how did it feel doing the old Crazy

in front of the man himself? It is amazing, to sing it on its own is

amazing, but to sing it in front of him... I know, it is so weird

looking up there, it is like my CD collection come to life. I cannot

deal with it. 400 million records have been sold collectively by that

bunch. Oh, my goodness. Please tell me that you are Rob. You are Rob.

Yes. A spitting image of the young roofers Sule. Is anyone with me? I

noticed you were doing amazing singing and some trumpeting in

there. We like playing around with sounds in rehearsing and we wanted

to try it out. Multitasking, lovely Rob. Judges, only one can go through

to the next round. Gareth, you have to give me some comments. I feel

like Bruno Tonioli and I want to stand up, it was so great. Do it.

All The King's Men, sometimes feedback about a cappella is that it

is cold, but you brought heart and fronted it, but you are up against a

immensely warm and passionate group, that let you down a bit, but

fabulous. I would be standing. Both groups brought something really

different but really great to the show. Portsmouth, you are so warm.

You guys are so lovable and exciting and the energy is great. There are

some cheery issues, but there were chewing issues with All The King's

Men as well. But you do so many creative things that I love. One

group is about to be cast out of the final. It is decision time. Gareth,

which group would you like to see going forward into the next round?

The group I want to see in the next round, despite a fantastic

performance here, is All The King's Men. Which group would you like to

see going through tonight? You are both amazing, well done, I am going

with Portsmouth. Deke, the decision lies with you all stop it is up to

you. He is in tatters. Which group would you like to see going through

to the next round? I want both of your albums, but based upon the

incredible risks, I have got to go with All The King's Men. Which means

very sadly we have to say goodbye to Portsmouth University Gospel Choir.

Oh, guys, just amazing. There is a lot of hugging going on. Thank you.

Now, listen, going through to the a cappella battles is All The King's

Men. Are you prepared for this? George, the pressure is on. Yes, it

is and we will give it our all. We better believe it. She is off. You

cannot stop her. We now know that All The King's Men will be joining

Scot Sole in the a cappella round. But now, let's meet tonight's final

two groups about to take to the stage for their Superstar

Collaborations. And up first, it's our

vocal harmony group, the Leeds Contemporary Singers

with Will Young! Leeds take what we think about the

choir and do something for this generation. There is something very

fresh about them and it excites me. When he walked towards as I got him

in the headlight. We are going to win it. The next day I was back at

work and they were back doing exams. But they could not stop smiling. To

get this opportunity to perform in front of millions will be amazing

and that will give us the extra bit of a fight for the final.

Singing with their Superstar Guest Judge, it's Will Young

# You're making me feel like you and I could be real.

# I can't keep wasting my time on your game.

# I can't keep wasting my time on your game.

Will, it is emotional. I have to say, lovely to see you. You always

bring it when you come. Local what we have got, the sleeveless onesie.

But hey, look at Kelis, I have got to bring it. You could swap. Leeds,

Hannah, you have got a big fan in Will Young. What was that like for

you? We absolutely love him. We are massive fan. He came up with this

idea the day after we were the winners, he is amazing. I just

wanted to shine myself! Come closer, you are too far away! Time to meet

their competition. from Aberystwyth, it's Sgarmes

with Jermaine Jackson! This is the first competition we

have ever entered and it was all about the nerves. We really wanted

it. Hey, Sgarmes, you are the wild card. I am just overwhelmed to have

met such a legend. Amazing. We always had music in our house

growing up, the Jacksons always were part of that. You have sole and

feeling on stage. I hope that we do him proud. Please welcome pop legend

Jermaine Jackson and Sgarmes. # Where there is love,

I'll be there. # Build my world

of dreams around you. # I'll be there with

a love that's strong. # I'll be your strength,

I'll keep holdin' on. # If you should ever

find someone new. Jermaine Jackson, so nice to see

you. Nice to be here. This is too much. I am touching a Jackson. Come

along, this is all too much. So good to have you here. Happy to be here.

Have you sung with choirs before? Tell you the truth this is my first

time and they are sensational. The feeling, the emotion. What they do

makes me do more. So God. Hedge, are you all right, are you coping? I'm

very emotional, everyone is in tears. Wipe yourself down. I think

I'm having a bit of a crisis. Hedge, you have the best name in the whole

studio. Really I think you have said it all, the emotion is there, it has

been incredible. I'm going now, we need to settle ourselves. Let's

bring back Leeds can to greet singers now. And for now given up

for Jermaine Jackson. -- contemporary singers.

We are in tatters, absolute tatters. Please use the sleeve. Not on the

nose, if possible. Now Kelis, what are your thoughts? Leeds, sonically

that blend is so beautiful, masterful. You are the perfect

summary broke, technique oriented and then all that heart which I

love. And then Sgarmes obviously, you guys know, I love you guys, you

have a family feeling, it is so special and what this is all about.

There's one place left in the next round, but who is worthy

Deciding their fate is the final themed Rif-Off.

Let's reveal to the audience at home what your theme is.

I hereby decree that the theme is Royalty!

Who will become homecoming queen and who will receive a royal wave

In tonight's third and final live Riff-Off by quite

literally royal appointment, it's the Leeds Contemporary

# Ridicule is nothing to be scared of.

# That kind of lux just ain't for us.

# We crave a different kind a buzz.

# But if you want a play with me you better learn the rules.

# Buys an eight by twelve four bit room.

# I wanna feel like you've let me go.

# Let go of every thing, let go, let go.

# You can dance, you can jive.

# Ooh ooh see that girl, watch that scene.

# To absolutely drive you wild, wild.

APPLAUSE. Oh my goodness. The bar is being

raised ever higher. Enough of the chitchat. We are not at a cocktail

party. Get into your groups. That was an absolutely brilliant version

of dancing Queen. So wonderful. Enjoyable or stressful? Very

enjoyable, we thought we should play to our strengths and something

different. So good. Sgarmes, I get the feeling you rather liked being

up on the balcony. It is nice to rock out with the band a little bit.

And they are an amazing band. Extraordinary. Lovely stuff. Only

one group can go through. Let's hear from our own king of the castle,

Deke Sharon, as an American, did you love that Rafa off? It was

fantastic. Let me start with Sgarmes, you sing with so much love

and even though it is not perfect some of the time, I often do not

care and that is about the highest compliment you can get. For people

who work all day with this kind of stuff. You made me well up with

tears when you were singing I'll be there. But I have to say comic you

said you were playing to your strengths but everything is your

strength. You sing with precision, you have got swagger.

It is wonderful, it is such a pleasure to listen to you, Leeds,

you are the guys to beat. One group is about to face the chop. Judges,

it is decision time. Deke, which group would you like to see

progressing into the next round. These guys need to go pro, it is

Leeds. Kelis, which group would you like to see going through to the

next round. As much as my heart goes out, I have to go with Leeds as

well. So we do have a winner. But, Gareth, out of interest which group

would you have gone with? Leads all the way for me, they are fantastic.

We have got to say goodbye to Sgarmes. You were absolutely super.

This is a very intense group hug. Congratulations, you were brilliant.

Leeds, well done. Go and give yourself some knighthoods. A final

round of applause for Leeds contemporary singers and Sgarmes. We

are walking and talking at the same time. Now.

So, three groups are left in the running to win Pitch Battle

and as it's the final, we thought we'd ramp

It's time for the A Cappella Battles.

Our groups are now going to have to sing A Cappella so no help

from our quite frankly amazing band whatsoever.

You heard, put down your drum sticks, drummer Neil!

But as luck might have it, we have a fella who knows a lot

That's right, it's our very own Deke Sharon.

Thank you. Deke, let's get down to the nitty-gritty. You know all about

a cappella. How hard is it to sing? It is the hardest. These people are

singing without any safety net and one person goes out of tune and the

whole thing can unravel. It is high stakes, live television. Anything

can happen. Is it easier if there is a large group? Can you hide in the

background? Not always. Take heed, groups, Alfredo a cappella has

spoken. Up first group that has been mustering support to home. The

community support around Loch Lomond has been amazing. It is lovely to

put on a special show for the people that mean the world for us. We would

love to win the final for them. A cappella is something the Scots have

never done before. There is only five of us. If they have a larger

group, they can create a fuller sound. We want to show Gareth Malone

that we can do this. Performing their a cappella song it is Scot

Sole. # Yes, I do, I believe

that one day I will be. # Where I was right

there right next to you. # And it's hard the days

just seem so dark. # The moon and the stars

are nothing without you. # No words can explain

the way I'm missing you. # Deny this emptiness,

this hole that I'm in. # These tears they

tell their own story. # Told me not to cry

when you were gone. # But the feeling's overwhelming,

it's much too strong. # I don't want to be

here if I can't be with you. CHEERING

Spine tingling stuff. Feeling the pressure next it is a

group that has been preparing for the final by getting down with the

kids. Because it is a cappella at the judges will be expecting a

different level from us. It is what we are all about. They should be

detailed, exciting and innovative. The expectation is huge. It will be

a challenge for us to up our game for this performance. We have been

doing workshops and the coolest thing is seeing people who have

watched the programme and they want to do it themselves. The kids

supporting as is one of the best things and we would love to be able

to win for them. # Why does love always

feel like a battlefield. # We could pretend we

are friends tonight. # And in the morning we'll wake up

and we'll be alright. # Why does love always

feel like a battlefield. # Guess you better go

and get your armour. Finally, it is Leeds Contemporary

Singers Who Hope A Winter Night Will Be The Final Thing. With Our

Arrangement It Is Unique To Our Sound And Our Style. They Are Not An

A Cappella Group Because They Have Got All The Tools. We Could Not Do

This Without Our Friends And Family. For Us To Become Champions Would be

everything for our group. And here they are, it is Leeds

Contemporary Singers. # I have given all myself

all that I had left to give. # All the reasons

I confront, no more # Tell me what would

be enough, be enough, # If you're still

searching for something. # We'll never see

how far we've come. # Take my heart back

from your hands. # And my pride back

from your sheets. # If you're still

searching for something. # If you're still

searching for something. # We'll never see

how far we've come. Well done, goodness me. That must

have been absolutely terrifying. Natalie, how was that singing

completely without a ban? Different, very emotional. It was about the

people who cannot be in the audience tonight. Todd, do you feel there is

a bit of pressure because you are an a cappella group already. Was there

double pressure on you? Yes, absolutely. There is so much high

risk and high expectation and anything can happen. Thomas, hello.

You let rip. You gave that everything. How was it? Yes, we have

never done anything like this before but we really enjoyed it. We knew we

were in good hands because of Atkin's arrangement. Well done,

Atkin. Now, they were all amazing that only two can make it through to

face the viewer vote. Any of the groups surprise you? It was not a

surprise for me that All The King's Men owned a cappella. It was not

your finest, but you have the skills for that. But a real surprise for me

to see the other groups. Natalie, that solo was wonderful and you were

beautifully supported. I loved it and it was a challenge getting the

clean lines and need a solo like that is a challenge. But over here,

when it gelled, boy, did it gelled. Amazing. As much as the jail on your

head tonight, Gareth. You had a big hit with a song called a cappella

which you sang with a band. Yes, I did. I can use metaphors like you

know. What did you think? It is such a challenge to sing a cappella and

it is your domain and it is beautiful and it worked. Scot Soul,

there are things that you can work on. Leeds, it did take a second to

get there, but once you got in it was beautiful. For the final time,

judges, you have one decision to make before you relinquish control

to the viewing public. Decide who you want to put through to the final

battle. Are you ready? Gareth, please tell

us the first group you would like to see go through to the final battle

and viewer vote. This is going to be an amazing final sing. The group I

would like to put through, I have championed you since the beginning,

it is All The King's Men. All The King's Men, you are through to the

final battle. Only one group can join you, will it be Scot Soul or

Leeds Contemporary Singers. Kelis, which group would you like to put

through to the final battle and viewer vote? Scot Soul, I have loved

you from the beginning and if you want to be in this you can take it

on the road and do it but I have to say, Leeds Contemporary Singers, you

guys rock my world. APPLAUSE. I'm afraid Scot Soul, that

means your time with us is at an end. We absolutely loved having you

on the show. I am giving you big waves from over here. Ladies and

gentlemen, a massive round of applause for Scot Soul.

Thank you. We love them. Goodbye, guys. I know we will see more of

them. Huge congratulations to All The King's Men and Leeds

Contemporary Singers, you are through to the viewer vote. The

power now lies with you, dear viewers. The judges can no longer

make any decisions. You have the power.

So what are you waiting for because voting is now open!

You can vote for your favourite group right now.

You've got just over ten minutes so get voting!

Full terms and conditions are on the website and remember

please don't try to vote if you are watching On Demand.

It will not work and you will feel silly. Finalists, All The King's

Men, let's take another look at them, monochrome bards. You're

looking slightly Gothic. I am massively backpedalling. What is it

going to mean to you to win tonight? It would mean the world. It would be

the icing on the cake and to sing with guys like these, that is the

dream for us. It is not cool to talk about money but Thomas, what would

you spend the prize money on? Not you personally, the group! We want

to invest in the group. This group we have is new, we started it for

the show and we would like to keep going after the show whatever

happens tonight. Thank you so much. I'm sure that Will Young will be

Well it's been an amazing six weeks with so many

great choirs and groups, superstar guest judges

But, as the end is near, and we face the final curtain,

I know we all want to see the unseen footage from Gareth Malone's

dressing room but instead, let's take a misty eyed look back

This is pitch battle. We have seen some amazing talent over the last

five or six weeks. Jazz, Opera, hip-hop, is unbelievable. I love

that. Ladies and gentlemen, prepare for an

outbreak of vocal warfare. This seemed riff off. Take the roof off.

It is my first time trying to get these genes on. The mike drop. Every

single episode there has been shock and awe and surprise.

Damn, Daniel. We have some incredible solos.

What about those standards! The best thing about this contest is people

coming together to make music and singing together for the sheer joy

of it. I love how it is so inclusive, people of all abilities.

The people you get singing as a group is amazing. It is all about

people getting up and singing, ordinary people doing this. That is

what singing in acquire should be. -- are quiet. If you have not yet

voted it is too late. The time to choose your favourite is over. The

vote is now closed. Vote closed. Whilst we verify the results let's
