Middle School A Cappella Choir Sings 'Come Fly With Me'
It’s music to our ears when this middle school choir performs an a cappella rendition of ‘Come Fly With Me’ by the legendary Frank Sinatra.
As you listen to these words, you truly feel taken back to a time long ago.
“Just say those words and we'll beat those birds
Down to Acapulco Bay
It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
Come on fly with me, we'll fly, we'll fly away, we'll fly”
Frank Sinatra continues to be one of the most recognized jazz musician names in the entire world. The popular blue-eyed crooner grabbed hearts in America and later internationally through both a singing career and fame in Hollywood.
Over the years, many artists have lent their voices to the songs that Frank made famous. But these iconic songs are always a risky choice for a performer.
Today, the St. Louis Park Middle School is putting their own spin on this iconic tune and it’s absolutely stunning. Just listen as they belt out these famous words at the Barbershop Harmony Society's 2020 Midwinter Convention.
“Once I get you up there
Where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide
Starry-eyed
Once I get you up there
I'll be holding you so near
You might hear
All the angels cheer because we're together”
I just love hearing the next generation cover the classics. And to hear ‘Come Fly With Me’ performed a cappella is just incredible.
This just shows how much talent these middle schoolers truly possess. What a performance!
