    Hehehe… Nice, guys. Very nice. The camera speaker isn’t that great when there are three voices projecting intense levels of harmony into it from close range, though. But it does add to the effect.

    I believe you may have redeemed yourselves somewhat from the Count Dracula inspired “I will survive”! CTGB makes me happy. :)

    Great job, Guys. Love the Barbershop Triplet vibe.

    And great show in Atlanta Saturday – hope I didn’t scare you off from any future dates in Georgia!!

  • Bari

    Hey there was one thing missing. The acoustic guitar would have been an great touch. :) However you redeemed yourself from “I Will Survive”. Awesome Job!

    Love it! You guys rock the acapella. Although that last note just about blew out my speakers. Well done!

    We love these. One night over the weekend, I pulled up all the CTGB’s and showed them to my husband and it was way better than watching anything on television. We laughed ourselves to tears more than once.

    Thank you.

    God Bless you!

  • Stacey

    Loved it ! Great CTGB laughed my self to tears. Keep up the wonderful singing.

  • Robbie Paisley

    I really enjoyed the acapella version of this song. You guys have great harmony together. I see Mike was missing but he will be excused this time since I’m sure he was at home with his new little baby boy.

  • TLC

    Good song. I like this version. But I like everything MM does anyway! So I’m not very objective. But I did JUMP at the end. Tell the other half of MM we miss them. Hope all things are well. God Bless.

    wow… i have to say, Bart- that ‘happy hamster’ expression on your face gets me every time.
    it’s really ironic that i have girls choir tonight… my favorite sound in the world is definitely the sound of voices blending together in harmony… well, let me stress the word ‘blending’ (you know, like, IN TUNE…ahem…) :-D

    What is this talk that you guys “redeemed yourselves” from the last CTGB? No redemption necessary — “I Will Surivive” is a masterpiece!!! Well, okay, maybe that’s going a little too far. But it is great, one of my favorites. As for this one…AWESOME. The Boys II Men-esque harmony, the flub, the big-note finish, the snapping. Ohhh, how I love the snapping! :)

  • Trish

    SILLY WILL REIGN OVER ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    God Bless MercyMe!!

  • Bob

    My comment was never posted……

    God Bless.

    My fingers must have minds of there own I mean`t `You Can`t Sing Like That

    I live in Louisiana. We got our power back on Thursday and internet access yesterday (Saturday). I was happy to see a new cover tune grab bag. We really needed a laugh. Keep up the good work!

    You guys are great!

    OK, here’s a suggestion: old country. Like George Jones, Hank, Conway… Or maybe somewhat newer. Like Strait, CDB, Hank Jr., Dwight Yoakam, Restless Heart. (can you tell I’m a fan)

    But heck there are lots a possibilities. How about more of the 80′s like Jounery, Foriegner, Van Halen, Kenny Loggins. Endless possibilities!

    I figure if you’ll do Cindi Lauper and Michael Jackson…

    So far my favorite is Staying Alive.

    Speakin’ of the Bee Gees, I think Culture Club could be cool. Bart Millard singing Boy George could be a real tour de force of your vocal skills. Not to mention hiliarious. Thanks again.

    I think that your wives must really enjoy seeing you do these things! I also love that you have the guts to post such things as I can’t imagine what I would do if someone posted me singing online ;) Blessings!

    All right, I’ve changed my mind. This is now my favorite. And, I’ve never even heard the original! gonna have to research it.
